Rules of the Wild

Wild horses tame themselves all the time while tamed horses get wilder and wilder.

Life creates and breaks its own rules.

Nature's Rules

Pavel,

Yet the behavior of both horse categories (wild and tamed) apparently illustrates natural laws/processes  consistently at work, making it possible that what is created and broken is a matter of our PERCEPTION rather than actual REALITY.

perception is reality

perception exists, doesn't it?

our subjectivity objectively exists (if only for us).

an illusion that exists is not an illusion.

or (here's an oldie but goodie): perception is reality

and (if we want to flip this around a la Heart Sutra style): reality is perception

where does this leave us?

"perception v. reality" is yet another dichotomy to abandon, Brenden

whatcha think?

No certainties or absolutes

Your analysis leaves me thinking whatever knowledge we claim to have is relational and ultimately indeterminable, making our existential predicament one with no certainties or absolutes.  Is that where you ARE also?

indeed, that's exactly where I happily/blissfully am

a locale of subjectivity onto my own pseudo-self

a field of unknowing
