. . . .is the existence of paradox. Binary thinking limits one to a false choice. It is essential to think outside the box so as to gain understanding. Paradox allows us to love beyond our own worldviews, which are limited in scope. Paradox frees the soul from the prison of the body. We reincarnate because we are here to learn. Our lives must be filled with Purpose. Paradox opens the door to finding and living that Purpose.
Said to me by my wife in response to my thoughts about the challenges of human existence: ‘ the greatest challenge in life is to learn how to transform paradox into paradise…’. Quantum physics and brain science provide some clues…. As Neils Bohr was known to say, ‘We are both spectators and actors on the great stage of existence.’ The Good is in the mediation between. The reality of what CS Peirce called ‘Thirdness’…
The most important thing to know is that when billions of younger humans have aquired intelligence, cleverness, creativity, competitiveness and free will agency (and haven't yet attained wisdom) things are going to be messy.

This is wonderful.
That's probably what being eclectic and mystical is all about. Thanks Peter. You and Lewis get this <3

Must be what they call the bardo.
