@RexRed,
Can you describe the way you see life in a few sentences?
Are we divided? Are we separated by ideology? Is there a line in the sand?
Are we on different planes? Levels? Continents? Planets? Worlds? etc...
Is life a tangle of threads that pull and tug in every which way?
Are we living in cubicles, identical replicas of one another? A house of mirrors?
Islands?
Is there any ideal model of form and shape that we can compare our life's true architecture to?
The answer is yes there is a form. It is reality. We compare the inner world with the outer world.
We mirror the outer world inversely.
This is how we understand by using the symbols of life in a philosophical way rather than a religious way.
Philosophy is more kind to education and intuition and invention where religion requires obedience often to a dogma that more often impedes progress.
Once we were merely plants and all we needed to do every day was drink water and reach our outstretched arms to the sun.
So is that the image? Is that the form, is this the philosophy of those who observe with their senses? Is that all there is to life?
A spinning orb in space? Timeless infinity?
What it the matrix, the key, the cipher, the word of creation?
We seek to look inside a box and find knowledge but it seems the knowledge is outside the box.
It is not inside a book but it is derived by studying the world around us.
By understanding the human side.
By the knowledge of the world around us we understand the world within the box.
