Dan: Okay. So, my cats (subject) see a mouse (object) running through the grass, catch it, and eat it. Are they using subjeect/object metaphysics, or not?
Mark: No, they are not. They are catching a mouse, there is no need for subject/object metaphysics. When you are watching a movie, are you using subject/object metaphysics? I suppose if you were a critic and formulating a review you would be, but otherwise not. When you are experiencing a beautiful sunset, or spelunking in some gorgeous grotto, are you using subject/object metaphysics? If so, you are over thinking the experience. Subject/object metaphysics is only used on occasion. When you are formulating how to tell people of your experience then s/o metaphysics comes into play. S/O metaphysics is one step removed from Quality. It has to do with analyzing and formulating what is being experienced. It is not the experience in itself. Most of life is an experience, even the s/o diversion part of it. The rest is what happens in between, like the silence between notes on a piano, or the white page of a book which full of words, or the screen of a movie. We are such a screen.
