To begin, thank you for replying Sicksixix. I will go further with the way you reason.

I completely agree that no amount of assumed understanding will prove what we are here for. Only living for yourself can prove anything, but still... someone with closed eyes wonīt see anything of what heīs going through.

An effect has a cause. Thereīs a reason for which you replied to this post, though you may deny it or not be conscious of it. To give you another small example, if you drop a book on the floor, one of the effects is the sound it makes, though you may reply that you canīt prove anything.

Assuming that we are alone with reason doesnīt mean that we necessarily have to close our eyes to it either, or that we should limit ourselves in it.

If we would have never looked above, never would we have realized that there are other planets. Itīs also because someone decided to look above that westerners found out that the Earth is round, though he was flamed (and that is the right word) for it because others claimed it was a false assumption. I guess they prefered to remain as the center of the universe.

If we didnīt make some assumptions, if we didnīt have dreams, nothing of what you know about human society would even exist. You would merely be "surviving," and still you would probably be dead, because you wouldnīt want to rely on the assumption that eating and drinking keep you alive. Though it may be a fact, you canīt absolutely prove it, you can only observe the effects and assume the causes.

Ideas may indeed change with the wind, and matter too though on a different scale, but what I am speaking of is not an idea or matter, itīs emptiness which is absence of all of these and which never changes, though I am using concepts to put it into words - to communicate, which is inevitable in communication. So if you seek an absolute cause for something, I guess itīs logical to assume that the first cause is what itself has no cause.

Anyway, I wonder why you assume that itīs so much about an "higher order?" Couldnīt it be as lower as higher?
