What do you call it Thom? Pervasive Universal Consciousness? Metaphors are sometimes useful, such as 'religious' spirits, or ghosts, or different names for 'singularity.' Jung took this much deeper with synchronicity, This bypasses the need for icons or memes and such and allows an unfettered connection between 'self' or 'parts' of something, a logical kind of reductionism that defies dualism and Cartesian ego-centric reality making.
IMO, the physics of QF, QE, remote sensing, photosynthesis, synchronicity are the most direct language for the PUC phenomena. Unfortunately for beings mired in languages, the constant need to create bridges to swim across waterways has taken human thought off the tangible entanglement of reality and replaced it with dangerous metaphors. Many living beings use 'languages' to perhaps 'communicate' in a way that we yet do not comprehend. Humans want to always make new music in order to 'be heard.' The yearning of the ego, or more likely a frustrated Id, is a reptile brain behavior that unfortunately relies upon cerebellum neediness, and time after time bypasses the connective tissues that engage the many brain regions that comprehend synchronicity/singularity/variety. There is no entanglement without variety, so let's accept this reality as the glue that is always present in consciousness. Human perceptions an ap-perceptions, intuitions, etc. have been bandied about for many centuries as ways of explaining the necessary order of reality that includes entropy, uncertainty, chaos, gravity, polarity, continuous synthesis of seemingly isolated energies that actually are not so.
Delusion, which can be conscious or not, is IMO not a paradigm. It is a necessary function of harmony, which actually cannot occur without melody, contra-pedal expansions, sharps, flats, etc. Dualism is the quasi-real enemy here, a state of being not experienced by, as I observe it, any other animal on Earth, and most certainly not any Plantae species or subspecies. The human newness to this planetary process may either kill us off, or we are experiencing a very rough patch of PUC. I suspect the former, because all the experiences with all our other fellow energetic beings, for many centuries, has failed to lift us out of our ignorance. Every day I am centered in Nature, and I cannot ever perceive a missed que in it, not because I know all or even a few of those ques, but because I would experience that fallout either directly or via observation.
We are killing Nature, it is not self-destructing. This is pissing off QE, which has a quadrillion different ways of eliminating untenable chaos.
Of course. Our lives as we define them... no... my life as defined by time years etc is only one layer of many that exist. Fortunately I've been very lucky and had enough experiences to know that. Many different kinds, but in this context of there being a Library Angel I've had one that still astonishes me.
In the late 80's I walked into an EastWest bookstore in Manhattan. Suddenly I was propelled to the rear of the store as if taken by force straight to a book I'd never heard of: I Am That. Without another thought I picked it out or it picked me out to be bought.
It filled my life the, and seemed to rescue meet befriend me, to instill itself in me with joy and a deep comfort that I deeply needed as my life was changing or was being changed.
So would it surprise you for me to say that I read this article outside a Library, my offices for this maverick vagabond. I call that incidence in itself one of my many 'Harmonic Moments' - a melding of coincidences, kismet, magic-miracle-mystery, providence, serendipity, synchronicity et al! By the way I'm also reading SYNC by Steven Strogatz - and so it goes, on and on. Constant rewards for remaining open and trusting your gut.
