RE: Metaphor on Perspective and Our Place in the Universe

in #life7 years ago

It's mostly self-generated through meditation, thought experiments, and from an assortment of knowledge absorbed from philosophy and the cognitive sciences. About seven years ago I began my journey through philosophy, then theology, and then the esoteric, while absorbing a ton of information about human scientific advancement.

The information presented in this metaphor isn't anything new. Kurt Godel's incompleteness theorem is the pinnacle of this information; that none of us can construct a complete axiomatic system (paradigm) by the nature of logic as we know it. Thinking farther back, the idea of having a limited model of reality has roots from Plato, if not beyond then.

Interesting, same here. Perspective and reality, it's a confusing duality.
