We live in a world of presumed reality. Sense being completely subjective, one realizes that reality is only an idea at its own mercy. Our perception is bound by our ability (or lack of ability) to sense the environment around us. Reality is only a frame of reference in which there is no absolute to refer to. What you constantly experience is subject to every interaction that in some way physically connects; which we find to entwine all existence at some level.
The problem with reaching this level is that it is commonly misunderstood by those looking for a preconceived idea. In a somewhat more primitive fashion--though with no less efficiency for proficiency—people realize minor talents and sometimes take conscious advantage of those. Others spend most of their life trying to find a niche—a habitat/community/environment/etc.—a position relative to local interactions such that it best compliments their natural talents and tendencies.
Individuals of all mental capacities have the innate and wholly unique ability to understand certain aspects of our universe in relation to their unique genetic and learned predispositions. For example; a mentally handicapped man might have the ability to tell you exactly what the date and day of the week it would be on the 1,271st day from today without having to even think for 3 seconds and without referring to anything. But the practical use is lost, or not worth it because of his communicative and cognitive limitations. He will be mentally like a toddler for the rest of his life, but is still able to make these impressive connections because of a very unique structure and composition of his brain and how his mind works. We are individualistic because of how we each have our differences in the balance of our human limitations.
And we do have a soul; the energy that flows through us and all things is in a continuous cycle, transferring from one thing to another where all energy will be recycled and passed through infinite permutations of quantum divisions. Life is feedback; an informational closed spiral that continually feeds organized and reorganized energy back into itself.
We are the generation that will inherit an apathetic human ecosphere. Not apathetic in the sense that no one does anything (though it may seem that way) but in the sense that everyone is working more towards personal or small group gain. The survival-of-the-fittest instinct still resides stubbornly reluctant in our psyche, so imprinted in our minds from billions of years of evolutionary adaptation. And now it turns out that a moral conscious does better for survival than any kind of practical physical advantages. But survival of the group is at the expense of freedom of the individual. Though on the flipside, it seems that survival of the group allows for freedoms that we could never have known as solitary creatures.
We are that generation because we have no choice, the free will you hear of is really that our course of fate is the one we would choose if we had full reign. And so we have come to this point in which the next intellectual elites are those who try to find ways out of the traditional system. Knowledge gathered and passed down since the dawn of community and awareness--refined and diversely redefined in the last two millenniums--has had a gradual but inevitable trend towards reaching an unobtainable but infinitely improvable conveyance of pure, non-interpretable experience and information. An exponentially increasing curve towards an asymptote of the dimension of human awareness with relation to our surrounding environment.
We somehow all have the feeling that our individual minds are not so much our own as we think, but at the same time we find that we don’t care, and that it makes sense this way; a kind of peace through enlightenment—one of those naïve presumptions you find out aren’t really valid enough to worry about. When you were a kid you constantly worried about getting candy because it tasted good, but now you don’t actively seek it because you don’t care about the taste as much—there are more important things.
We are all balanced minds. The genetic lottery is not random—it is not a lottery at all. We are simply the product of a constantly interacting chain of events, with a butterfly effect that sends ripples through space and time.
We keep this thought in the back of our minds:
That there is no such thing as nothing and the space you see between objects is only invisible (‘empty’) because we have no distinct senses tied directly to this aether of our universe. The space you do not see, the magic quarter hidden behind our collective conscious ear can be glimpsed at if you begin to realize that you are the first of the magicians.
Our pyramid of common knowledge is gradually catching up to our physical limitations of thought and true enlightenment. Each new ideal-modifying, groundbreaking theory that gains more credence adds to that collective ‘community bowl’ of wisdom, at best times widely interpretable—filled with simple knowledge that is easily recalled and easily observable only once it has been discovered and shown to others. But it is like a patchwork quilt of communication lines, knowledge only able to be passed down through almost exclusively personal experience and personal trust (a.k.a. having faith in) in others’ experience.
One of our most important virtues is that we are able to (or forced to, depending on if you see it as an inevitable/inherent trait of our being, or if you see it as a crucial adaptation though natural environmental selection and extinction—dominant gene reorganization) make an assumption on minimal input. We are able to observe simple, observer-independent interactions and relationships around us, not quite knowing or even being yet able to know how we fit into the environment around us. It can be related to the situation of teaching/trying to explain to a toddler--who just begins to carry out meaningful conversations with you—why a particular observed geometric constant causes spherical masses to revolve around each other, respective of their mass towards each other. If you explain it so that he understands each tiny piece of information leading up to the whole concept, it is surprising how easily it settles into simple impulsive logic.
In essence, the average person--and by and large just any individual living in communal proximity and with a [commonly human] desire to hear other peoples’ ideas and discoveries--will learn and have a much more accurate and detailed understanding of the forces and interactions around them--to what extent and with what unique sensual disposition of focus depending largely on a relationship between genes and collective personal experiences/situations in certain environments.
Especially in what you do everyday.
We have discovered that the physical is what we observe directly, independent of time; frames of existence. The supernatural—that which people say is not physical—are the intricate web of interactions of everything. Interactions are the motivation of time.
