Willblake2
Yes Andre, I agree with you, I think. ?It is one system of thought trying to
interpret another, like applying science to religion, when maybe the
languages are not the same. ?I have a hard time interpreting a Russian, so
he must be mistaken. ?I suppose that an agreed upon interpretation in
required when we want to share experiences. ?Do you feel like I do about
this?

Andre:

Hi Willblake2, well 'science' and 'religion' try to describe 'reality' from
the same (given) data, with religion seeing a little more (or less) than
science and vice versa. From a SOM point of view never the twain shall meet
because their methods/ procedures of making sense of this reality is
fundamentally different (logic/rationality/reason vs faith).

IMO the MoQ goes a long way to integrating these seemingly, diametrically
opposed schools of thought/ belief. What was required was a reinterpretation
of the fundamental stuff of reality. No subjects, no objects, no God.
Quality! So common, so simple, every child knows it. (see Lila pp158-161)

And IMHO an 'agreed upon interpretation' is still a long way off. SOM being
the biggest obstacle.

In another sense your questions reminded me of something that happened last
summer in a far off place in China. I was walking along a road with a
T-split. On one side of the road there were some rocks and stones lying
(about 1/4 on the road) and I kicked them off the road, thinking they had
fallen off a truck and they could be dangerous for cars and cyclists. I was
watched by three men.
Anyway, having cleared the road I continued my walk and turned to look back
after 100 yards or so. The three men were carefully putting the rocks and
stones back on the road!
Upon returning the men told me the rocks were there because the turn in the
road was a dangerous one. The rocks were a warning sign!

Since then, I have seen many of these 'signs' on the various roads
travelled.

Cheers.
Andre
