Quiet is a good starting point, I think you would agree. Quietness
helps us steer through this in a good way. Would you
say Time would provide you with the same information that
Change would about the nature/ontology of spov's?
My thinking is that the nature of all static patterns is
conceptual. (This is what interests me, that spov are primarily
mental experiences.) I think I've explained this a number of
times. In the case of inorganic and biological, these patterns have
as their referent external, natural phenomenon, such as rocks and
trees. Social and intellectual patterns are conceptual patterns
pointing to concepts/ideas, such as socialism and theoretical physics.
What are these conceptual patterns like? Images or pieces of
images. Auditory? Words? Certainly not dictionary-like
definitions. Smell. Taste. I can't quite get it. It's there, but
out of reach. I think there's physical aspect. Emotions? Maybe as
simple as good or bad. Since everything is connected to everything
how far would it go. If the hooves of a zebra are like those of my
horse, would they be part of a zebra pattern? If I spent hours
grooming a horse would the experience of touching the horse become
part of the zebra pattern? There's many questions I have about
these patterns. - How might patterns be different in composition
from one individual to the next? How would sensing-type individual's
patterns differ from thinking-type individual's patterns? So, many
questions?
Yes, change seems most definitely an attribute of spovs.
Time? There's something said in Nagarjuna's MKK about time, I will
need to read again. Since Einstein time is relative. Seems to me
I've read somewhere there is past and future, but no present. In
some cases time is directional. In some cases time is not
directional. I don't know how time might be an attribute of static
patterns of value.
Here there's a need for quietness, or the possibility of overload.
