Hi Steve and All;
In a DQ/SQ metaphysical description for reality how do we know indefinable
DQ? For myself I am content to accept levels in evolution. DQ is an
indefinable yet knowable root in every evolutionary step. I prefer to call
that step to a self-awareness that takes part in all my behavior the
emotional level in self-consciousness DQ, experienced and indefinable.
