David,
"Don’t keep searching for truth. Just let go of your opinions."
(Seng Ts'an)
Here they come; there they go...
You are projecting, David.
You would construct me from words and call it "true"? David, do not mistake me
for words. You would construct me as a caring person or non-caring person
based on my agreement with your particular opinion? No, no, no... It is
better to consider knowledge as patterns, and to consider patterns as
hypothetical. It is better to _consciously_ acknowledge that our
interpretations, opinions, valuations, practices and traditions are possibly
incorrect, incomplete and subject to change. Value is an experience. It is not
a judgment about an experience. It is not a description of experience. The
value itself is an experience. One can hold a pattern to be very high value
and reliable, but still hold it as a hypothetical (supposed but not
_necessarily_ real or true). And I don't think it would be anti-philosophical
to do so.
