Will,
All my life I've been taught and thought 'That is a tree.', now the
tree is everything and my thoughts are insignificant bits of
entrapment. This reminds me of my very first parachute jump, until
the parachute opened fully, my legs were working frantically trying
to stand up. And maybe, too, I enjoy the puzzle-solving aspect of
these discussions.

Hi Marsha,
You may be right about the prejudice. I feel that having had a scientific
training and now viewing that view, as you do, as patterns
conceptually constructed
gives me some perspective. I am saying the same thing as you are.
I wouldn't stop at science however, philosophy, art description, music
discussion, they are all patterns that the brain creates. It is
what is outside
the brain, the heart, the body, yet interpreted by the body that interests me.
Science not different from philosophy or metaphysics. They are all
constructs.
In my opinion, by defining Quality and SQ, you are taking a very
scientific approach to your understanding. There is really no
understanding, simply you interacting with everything else. I believe
I am no separate from everything else, but am everything else.
I know this to be true since I feel it. Can't explain it, however.
Keep building your understanding until you become comfortable with
it. It can be understood outside of your brain. You are not your brain.
Conceptualizing, by definition, is limiting.
Cheers,

Hello Will,
It has been interesting to think about science, quantum this and
that, evolutionary this and that, genetic this and that, all
fascinating, like daffodils as yellow this and thats. Science as a
general pattern is very large and powerful; it is an institution
capable of producing both benevolence and malevolence. I am not
willing to judge science as being more than 'it is what it is',
patterns conceptually constructed and existing conventionally. I
could never settle for the theories that science provides, and think
you, being a trained scientist, are a bit too prejudice.
I sometimes wonder if Bo is correct in thinking it would be best to
describe the Intellectual Level as the S/O level, but maybe that's
just reflecting my own conceptual limitations.
