I have to laugh. Found somewhere in that glimpse of early morning sun, when waking to the flotsam and jetsam of a vanishing dream – Goldfish? This is a choice?
OK. So we live in a bowl. The earth is a globe, and it is transparent. Run with it.
Prof. had said: “I think you have Cosmic
Consciousness.”
And I had replied: “Yes, I know about that. Look
right through the earth
and find China on the other side.”
Long ago, in the sixth grade, what did I know?
Prof. smiled.
I still think the earth is a found object, our stoned term for old metal parts discovered on a dry creek bed. With cannabis, a little imagination goes a long way. That's just the start. Consciousness takes off and outruns itself. It's way beyond me now.
This earth, alive in its creek beds, is more than just good, clean dirt. The metaphor escapes its goldfish bowl. Truth inconveniently expresses climate change, or the Pythagorean basis of mathematics. It can be seen void.
A homely example: The process of making orange juice, which around here includes our tree, the orange squeezing bowl, and a glass. Oranges are gathered, cut in half, and pushed onto the ridged point of the bowl. The juice is tasty and healthful, and part of the process is appreciation. Then the bowl needs to be washed. After it's washed, it needs to drain. How to set up the irregular shape so that it dries completely?
So here's the truth of it. After several tries that didn't work very well, one day accidentally it fell into the drain hole with its pouring spout at just the right angle. And after that I could claim to have discovered the truth, or that the truth is obvious, perhaps.
The transparent earth bowl thing could ring some great changes. Maybe you'll discover a few. My pick --
Whether its called Cosmic or just Consciousness, we all have a share, are it, and have no explanation. It is more than our intelligence or that of our machines. It is not an it but goes beyond time to the other side of our universe, in an instant, though the truth of this is also a metaphor.
Here's the kicker: So far we have not encountered our like elsewhere in the known universe.
Could I interest you in some orange juice?
