Hi All
What I fail to understand about static patterns that are 'ever-changing'
is the process by which they change.
An example:
When I was about 18 years old I bought a BSA Starfire motorcycle. It was
an awful heap of crap and I spent more time fixing it than I did riding it!
I now own a Moto-Guzzi T3 California which I have spent more time riding
than repairing.
In between I have owned a multitude of motorcycles.
Am I to take the view that my Starfire has, somehow, changed (in effect,
morphed) into my T3 - or, as is more likely, that over the years I have
owned different motorcycles, starting with a Starfire and ending up,
now, with a T3?
Each of them is a set of static patterns that equate to motorcycles
(more or less!!!) but each one has been a different set of patterns.
In the same way, all other static patterns in my life, from inorganic to
intellectual, relate to my experience but are unique and discrete. They
relate to my experience in that I have experienced and, having
experienced, a new set of static patterns then emerges from that
experience. Each new set of patterns are unique but related to each
other by way of my experience - not just an initial set of patterns
changing/morphing from one form to another.
That would have to be classed as magic, not Metaphysics!
