Talkin' about the weather is a quick exchange but when it comes to this stuff, I have to slow down and let my digestive juices go to work on it. Summer approaches and the calendar calls me for home repairs and landscape projects, etc. You're right; there aren't enough lifetimes to learn it all - or fully understand what you've already learned. Like a Madison Ave exhortation: "Life! For a limited time only!"
To me, it is increasingly becoming apparent that human advancement feeds off of our self-image seen from both sides of a one-way mirror. Does our failure to grasp reality's roots stem from poor tools of math and science? Or does it stem from our inabilities or untrained senses that keep us out from the necessary paradigm?
Is it because of content or context that we are held back? It is both. You reach infinity by examining and mixing the finite because the whole is always bigger than the sum. Therein lies the mystery.
I've bookmarked a lot of your links.

<quoted text>Pokay was always very interested in the ultimate "knowing" or attainment of the great ultimate truth. What if the truth is ever changing. Not only because of perception but just because nothing ever remains the same. Maybe that is the only ultimate truth. The rest just a working hypothesis that keeps the energy alive. Forgive my randomness. I'm having one of those moments I used to get when I was in school and used to smoke.....uh....

I've always thought an extra eye would be a handy thing to have but now I realize it would likely only makes us dizzy.:)

I have been re-reading a chapter on reflections now for about two years and I'm still reflecting on it. It really is tough to comprehend - at least for me.

So could this lady if the sharks turn on her. The end credits list the name of Cristina Zenato as the "Handler/Model". She's wearing a mail outfit.
