Before I realized we are “selves entwined within an interactive field of meaning and knowledge,” and emphasizing the “intrinsic orientation” . . . Very creative, but weak on one half, the wholeness. Now I can deal with the befores and afters: An experiential domain . . . an experiencer -a deeper, secret aspect to experience…
The Life World within the Greater Worlds . . . “ . . . But first let’s talk about the warp and the weft of a weaving. The warp threads are the vertical threads we have been talking about. They are the anchoring threads that hold the weaving together.” Andrews, Lynn. Coming Full Circle .…
Intent, with finesse . . . interconnected, and touching the beyond . . . intrinsic levels . . . pristine. Extensions to our flexible, malleable Life World, interacting with the Greater World . . . this field of meaning and knowledge . . . why we dream . . . building ourselves. Sometimes within our…
Being perspicacious, I originally intuited that perception was active, not passive, like with the “we are in here and the world is out there:” this was intentionality of course. I could focus the world: there was an “interconnection” here . . . one became “more together,” and simultaneously, the world in this focus was clearer,…

Extensions . . . going past one’s filters . . . Dreaming, or Seeing, in the Don Juan sense. One can feel oneself in a different mode here, not just dealing with “inner imagery,” like in one’s head, for instance. The Other Self. Was it sleep or not? I just closed my eyes . .…
Yes, ultimately, we could say “other,” rather than shadow. Like the other parts of the jig saw puzzle, which can also be more sophisticated and interconnected within the bigger picture, the figure/ground is open to potential. Once one gets out of the static separate mode, and its authoritarianism, paranoia, into the more real, its much…
The core of our being is the act of perceiving, and the magic of our being is the act of awareness. Perception and awareness can be a single, functional, inextricable unit with two domains. The first one is the attention of the tonal; that is to say, the capacity of average people to perceive and place…
