Agreement

(after reading with comprehension; a non-negative is almost as wasteful as a mind. The subject of that predicate was the previous post.) In support of that assertion, then -

A force with no self awareness, unlike any god...
leaving only people (and possibly spirits) with self awareness.

A common thread amongst the variant -isms goes ~~ like this:

[The Absolute]
(*That* "to which no attributes may be assigned." Period.)

The [Absolute] cannot 'know itself'. But means to ???
Yes, one has to THINK about that predicament, for quite some time.

In order to "do" so, Other must be created, and by this er Singularity.
And a milieu / maya / illusion (whatever) which is most often labelled, The World of Duality: happens.

Within-which has been spawned all those metaphors; assembled-from-which was the Christian version: with the oft-used snake and the limning of the 'knowledge' thing, as appears closely-related to the Being thing, but not simply-enough for a few slogans to cover it. The Good/Evil, Yes/No Right/Wrong ... Duality Thing? R'us.

And, I say - how appropriate for Our Time\ufffd (and re the major preoccupations of many hereabouts) that Duality is an exact synonym for digital; and the worst form of digital surely must be: digital-think. Especially when operated upon ~most everything there is? seems to be? endlessly spinning opposites along the Way. Naaah: the primrose path. Cosmic Humour? Shirley..

And therein lies the reason why the Fundies (of any stripe) shall never Grok-to-fullness -- just create incessant warz. Digital yes/no think keeps a one locked into the world of appearances. Pity.

There: the history of contemplation AND an expectation of its means of denouement.

Best look Eastward with some perspicuity, then.
