Anything that exist, consist of the `information` concerning itself.
This information is `registered` by something, `confirming` the existence of the existing.
In other words, anything that exist, creates an `reaction`to it`s `environment`.
Or can anything exist without anything `confirming` it/`reacting` to it?

@molok69,
Existence is 'memory'. If there is no 'memory' of 'something', it does not/cannot exist. The dark side of the moon had no existence until the mid 60s when it was 'defined/contextualized' as/in 'memory'.
All existence is the 'product' of 'memory'.
'Self' (perspective) is also a product of 'memory'...

Very Interesting both posts!Smile

Smile If you realize the nature of reality is relational then you know you cannot think of yourself as a common existent entity, say a Jack Jones. It is an abstract vision you might think, but the abstract vision is really when we have an unquestioned belief in our personal identity, it just is not so, it is very handy agreed, but it is more a coordinate then something truely substantial. Words are qualifications and limitations of a coordinate. Perhaps this gathering together-----and this is the function of memory, perhaps the closest thing in our imaginations of the tangiable is brought forth thus, but just perhaps, the reality is the intangiable. Just on the premise if accepted, that reality is relational, it then is obvious that nothing can exist in isolation/separate, so yes, everything is registered with everthing else, everything is relational.
