At first, there was only potential, pure and undifferentiated. It had to be there; it always was. Potential is inherent in everything. To even deny this statement is to confirm its existence:

- "There is no potential."
- "But there could be."

Absolute nothingness cannot be. If there was absolute nothingness, then it could be something. This presupposes potential, and the existence of potential rules out absolute nothingness.

Potential has two key properties:

1. Potential must be explorable. If there are no means to exercise differentiation, then it is not potential, but only a static configuration.

2. Awareness is required for potential to exist. If there is no awareness, then there is no differentiation between the possible states, and simply an array of all possible static configurations.

So an explorer and a witness are needed. The most stable foundation in reality is one that rests on self-reference and recursion. Such a foundation needs no external support and is infinitely scalable. "I am I", "I am aware that I am aware" - these are the pillars that consciousness is stabilized on, and this is the explorer and the witness that emerges from the self-evident existence of potential.

The universe, therefore, is an act of mental creation, the exploration of undifferentiated potential by the original Consciousness. This is what the Hermeticists intuited and transcribed as "The All is Mind. The Universe is Mental".

>Awareness is required for potential to exist.
And a universe is required for awareness. So it's just turtles all the way down.

There's no reason we know of that there should be something in existence, nor any reason there should be nothing.

(cont.)

The most advanced and rigorous scientific studies, as well as brilliant theories on quantum physics keep running into the same phenomenon: non-locality. Electricity, magnetism and even mass are now viewed less and less as local fields and more as an excitation of a universal field.

The controversial, yet significant studies on Coordinate Remote Viewing (CRV) and other psychic phenomena seem to point in the same direction, positing that consciousness is non-local and the local experience of the individual seems to align more with that of a plugged-in receiver than that of an independent transmitter.

The whole is encoded in each part.

In my experience, self-reference and recursion are not bugs, but features - stable pillars of the system. This is how it stabilizes itself. This is in fact the only self-sufficient stabilizing technique for any concept that I know of.

Not bad. You're on the right track. Keep going.

Physics is a red herring. Nothing manifold can be primary. Return to the One.

>And a universe is required for awareness.
No, unconditioned awareness is the ground of all.

You sir are a very smart cookie.
Congrats on beginning the advanced journey.

>Physics is a red herring. Nothing manifold can be primary. Return to the One.
Thats an incredible denial and an extraordinary statement of solipsism
Physics is God expressing itself in the external world without you.
God is the manifold.

>solipsism
It's literally the opposite of solipsism.

>external world
No such thing. Nothing conditioned is independent of Mind.

>God is the manifold.
God is prior to all differentiation and plurality.

Interesting thread OP. The flux of potential reminds me of
ancient themes of a god eating itself like ouroboros or cronus

Thanks for sharing, this is in line with my views, just expressed in different wording. I agree with pretty much everything. Maybe the Voidlike systems are a bit murky for me.

But the geometry part I fully agree on, and actually this is the interesting thing that I've stumbled onto only after an anon shared the FTM document here (kink solitons and other topological stuff). Geometry does seem pretty crucial to understanding how reality manifests

>>40745013
Forgot to add: another interesting thought that I had after examining the FTM document is this:

The electron's spin has a very weird property. If you rotate it by 360 it is not the same, but if you rotate it by 720 it keeps the value. This is similar to Dirac's belt trick, so...the electron is "permanently glued" to something. This entails that measuring the electron even as a quantum "whatever" (particle, wave, etc.) - is just a useful model. Just like an electric field is a local excitation in the non-local field, an electron is also not its own thing. It is essentially just a topological twist in the universal field.

>>40745013
Geometry I think is just the language of information in an observer based information transfer network (divine web) with our understanding of it mathematically being the first abstraction toward our understanding.

>>40745094
That's a good point. I see it as a sort of... clay molding exercise so to speak, with the universal field being the clay, and the "guiding hand" being consciousness thus perception creating reality.

16+ years and that is nothing compared to others that have had their lives turned upside-down by events and then ruined by government cover-ups.
