THE TRANSCENDENT DYNAMIC APPENDIX Z53: A Compelling Case One cannot expect to clinically prove a dynamic Framing Belief* of the Cosmic Order – of the overarching/innite magnitude of Quest for Potential ∞ . But ideally one could provide a rather compelling circumstantial/supporting/empirical case. Perhaps we have done so. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis said that […]

Obviously, ecology is only one of many sub disciplines within the rather broad science of […]

APPENDIX Z51: Galapagos I, as well, traveled to the Galapagos Islands. Not on the HMS Beagle (c. 1835), but via HMS Boeing (December 2006), 171 years later. My reaction – after surveying the incredible giant Tortoises, the exotic erce-looking but harmless iguana, and the surreal pastel-blue footed seabirds (the ‘Blue-footed booby’) – was that Mr. […]

APPENDIX Z49: The Consciousness Continuum Where does it begin? Where is it at? What is it? Why is it? “Who” is it? Across how many dimensions of time and space does it span? To what extent is it shared? partitioned-off? To what extent is it stored eternally? In-time and out-of- time? If we are separate […]

APPENDIX Z48: “The Same Recipe” *** on-point: Q4P / Cosmic Traction “A universe hospitable to life—what we might call a biophilic universe—has to be very special in many ways.

APPENDIX Z46: Take #3: Physics & Metaphysics In secular society, and even in religious society, our natural inclination is to keep a close eye on Physics for its most up-to-date “wisdom” re: Cosmology (the origin and dynamics of the cosmos).
