Interesting thought experiment that becomes a ‘knowing<\/em>‘ experience… How to open an object of the mind… [An object] can be looked at in and of itself. Or it can be seen as a point in a process. Sitting quietly, breathing, inside and outside interpenetrating, we come up against similar wonderings\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 like where does one thing end and another begin?<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6can we bring mind and senses into balance, so that each supports the other? \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6Can we let knowledge emerge within language and consciousness, without being owned by the speaker and the knower?<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6Suppose that the power of time to allow transitions and the power of space to accommodate appearance introduce knowledge to form and substance, and that knowledge in turn, by giving to space and time their form, lets the world emerge. In this way of looking, what becomes of the limits the self puts in place?<\/p>\n

The more knowledge becomes an expression of the time and space in operation, the less we are tempted to put the self at the center\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 From this perspective, nothing that we do will take us outside time and space and knowledge.<\/strong><\/em>”

You might imagine the photo above depicting a \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcbottomless<\/em>‘, soft cylinder, fire-blown glass originating from open space like zero. In doing so the cylinder becomes a \u00e2\u20ac\u02dccone<\/em>\u00e2\u20ac\u2122\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 imagine the cone as an outward radiating, circular pattern for the making of meaning in mental space, a subject prehends<\/em>, and a spinning process is set moving in time\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 a radiating outward of subject referring to object, picking up additional meanings from memory, fantasy, judgments, intentions, feelings\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 and relating all back to subject\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 again and again, as a process building a useful widening, a kind of definitive whole that coheres<\/em> emerging in mental space. <\/p>\n

In imagining this, would you recognize the movement of time in space of the knowing process?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
