I use the word 'extension' to denote that, in reality, there is only continuity of the One. Therefore, we are not 'parts' but must be extensions OF that One. That One is extended in many ways: spatial, of course, but also extended in consciousness and extended in relational concept and relational form. > What exactly does it mean, when what we observe is form, forming, > formation ... being 1, being 2, being 3 ... without consciousness, > without self - consciousness, without formed consciousness ... ? > I'm not sure what you're driving at with this. What we observe is only an integrated 4-D part of a greater multi-dimensional whole. And, we can only integrate the 4-D slices because our consciousness is, at least, 2-dimensional. It's a mathematical fact that integration of x dimensions requires x+1 dimensions. Therefore, our consciousness MUST have access to another dimension in order to put the 4-D slices together such that we perceive a flow to events. Otherwise, we would only experience each individual slice and not understand how we got from one instant to the next. > Things and beings, you say, are eternal " because " they are retained > in Calabi Yau space.

The Calabi-Yau dimensions are eternal because there is no temporal dimension in them, things that are 'there' are eternal, as there is no 'temporal' aspect to their existence. > On Apr 22, 5:42 pm, Pat <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > > On 21 Apr, 22:33, Manfraco Frank Elder <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Hi RP! > > > I agree with you 100%, I see God the same way as you do.
