i am making a “faith statement” here.
It is what it is.
It may help someone else, but should only help, in that the person reading would double down in their diligence to experience THEIR kaleidoscope life to the fullest.
As far as i know, we only have this one physical life to do that in.
Anything else is way above my paygrade. 😎
Take it for what its worth.
It is based on everything i have managed to scrounge together in this gathering of moments i call my life.
The age of human tribalism needs to be over.
It is high time that each of us recognized that the other humans we encounter in our short time in this physical world, are JUST as legitimate and valid as we ourselves are.
So, its time to stop making clubs of folks(tribes) who agree with each other, and de-legitimizing those who do not agree.
Even though OUR subjective world seems to be “MORE REAL” than any other persons world, the fact is that our DNA package and the senses we use to perceive the world set the scene up that way, and that everyone else is experiencing it the same as we are: with the centre of everything inside them. This is an world of relativity that we each find ourselves in.
The illusion of being the centre of everything, is due to our sense perceptors being centered inside our physical body. Thats it.
Any posts i make are MY take on subjects, and are limited, just as my mind is limited.
But i speak and experience to the best of my ability and with all my honesty.

Even though each humans world seems to be “MORE REAL” to themeselves, than any other persons world, the fact is that our DNA package and the senses we use to perceive the world are virtually identical from one human to another.

The statements made here are wholly based on my experience of what i call REALITY.
– Each belief system wants to be right.
– None of the belief systems is absolute truth, in fact, humans do not have the capacity to even imagine absolute truth clearly.
– Our whole reality is built entirely from comparisons and depends entirely on context.
– Humanity speaks, and experiences reality to the best of our ability. (when we are living honestly)
– The Creator (oh yes, there is one as no other explanation that humans can fathom could cause what exists) didn’t leave us destitute in this world. We have a built in system that we experience our connectedness with everything around us, just as all DNA bodies do.

– Human teachers speak from time to time, and what THEY speak also depends totally on comparisons and context.
– Because ALL of our theories and experiences are limited in nature and understanding, it is time we admitted that fact, and allowed other varying theories and experiences to be as legitimate to them as ours are to us. Otherwise we are not being honest, and are simply pushing our understanding forward and trampling other folks legitimacy.
– i am assuming each person has an inner world which is REAL to them.
– i am assuming that each persons experiencing when they are being honest, is valid and legitimate for themselves, and should be treated with dignity and respect.
– i am assuming that most humans think and act, from a world of inner neediness, and therefore much of what we experience of other humans in our society, is reaching out for warmth, love, acceptance, validation, and a sense of legitimacy.
– i am assuming that to the best of our ability, we should act out of compassion and empathy, because as the song goes “we are all slobs on a bus, trying to make our way home”.
– i am assuming that our inner world is a combination of our sense world, and a deep natural participation in the REAL OBJECTIVE WORLD, which acts as a whole and in parts from the infinitesimal to the gigantic)
– i do believe, from my inner experience (wholly subjective) that the root of everything seen and unseen is some sort of super-personal oceanic awareness (deep nature, not separated from nature) that pervades and IS all. This is only my experience speaking, and has no proof whatsoever = my faith.
– i am assuming that there is a REAL OBJECTIVE WORLD outside of each persons inner experience, which we all participate in, until our DNA body dies.
– i am assuming that OUR experiencing of REALITY is only “real” at the level that we experience with our sense perceptions.
– i am assuming that REALITY looks very different from other perspectives (the microscopic world as an example) and that even the physical laws we perceive with our senses, do not apply at other levels. i take these and accept them in my worldview, as science gives us data.
