Dear Thoa:O  (unlimited and universal no doubt ! )

I enjoy watching Jeopardy nearly ever evening ....

My string of questions are how my mind works.

I don't like pat bases unless there is good reason for them so I
ask How, Who, Why, When, and Where -- and probably a few more in
search of origins and correlations, as well as potential future
results -- if I can see so far !!!!

So let me make a few observations on your observation on my
comments ....

Emptiness is relative to the "fullness" that anyone chooses as a
base.  There is an occult axiom:  that space is not empty
anywhere, at any time.

So a "Force-Field" is full of some kind of "force" which either
attracts or repels, or remains as a storage for something that
was or is -- and if it is intelligent, as in the case of Karmic
effects, then it stores the relative "skandhas (smskaras)" for
their future lodging with those who generated them.

So as you say, logically there is no volume or area which is not
used for something, or in which some intelligence is not lodged
or evolving.  the important thing to remember is that it need not
be PHYSICAL as we know matter, but that it can be emotional,
mental or electro-magnetic, etc., etc.,

One has to take as concepts 1.  The UNIVERSE IS PERMANENT AND
CANNOT BE DESTROYED AS A WHOLE.  2. EACH UNIT IN THE UNIVERSE is
a permanent and as potentially intelligent as the WHOLE.  3.
those differences that do exist can be resolved into
correelations of forces generated by each living being, in its
interaction with all the rest.  In other words the individual
fields overlap and interpenetrate, but are not attenuated to
NOTHING BY EITHER DISTANCE OR TIME.  Of course this can be
disputed, but in terms of metaphysics the logic will prevail.

"Without walls" seems to be a truism.  But that does not tell us
what is the inner nature of the human being is.  What you and I
are essentially, unless we also take it for granted that we are a
PART OF THAT UNIVERSAL WHOLE, and as such we have ALL THE
POTENCIES OF THAT WHOLE.  We need only develop them.

Identifying them is another point.  Not material.  Mental.
Ideas.  Facts of living things that have no termination, the
beginning of which cannot be discerned, and the ending of which
is equally unpredictable.  So we are in the "middle" with all
these qualities and faculties that we need to define to
ourselves.

Take a physicist or a chemist at work, and they use instruments
to observe and analyze change.  part of their work is to account
for small variables, so that results are charted in terms of a
probability curve.  Exact accuracy is always unobtainable.  Now
if we did not have minds to correlate all the information that is
supplied by our senses  and processed in our brain for
consideration we could not arrive at any conception of the laws
and actions being studied.

Any action of the mind is by definition subjective, as it can
only be objectivized as results that others can check, test and
verify given the parameters and equipment which provided us with
ours.  As scientific advances occur they are all the testing of
theories erected on results that have emerged from past testing.
>From "Objective" to "subjective."  It cannot be eliminated by
anyone.

The concept of spatial distortion is the way in which our minds
theorize about the formation of tangible matter.  In view of the
uncountable numbers of atoms, etc. involved the actual
calculations cannot be done by us, but only grossly approximated.
{The body alone is said to have over 60 trillion cells --and so
the number of molecules and atoms would be an enormous
exponential -- and if that is carried into the World, our solar
system, our "visible" Universe -- how can all those components be
cared for ?  Only an INTELLIGENT and all pervasive Nature can do
that.  So we are promptly out of the realm of the physical and
into the psychic and the spiritual realm, which for us remains to
be identified and examined.  Realms of force and energy.

Why not call it the "astral light" which is said to be 7-fold. ?

Vitality is another word but not an explanation for the "life
energy."  The hologram example is an excellent one as it accounts
for the universality of relativities and relationships which
permits each component to mirror the others as well as itself and
the WHOLE.  The idea is splendid and can be used to approximate
UNIVERSAL MIND or UNIVERSAL INTELLIGENCE.  If we are permitted
the idea of a UNIVERSAL MIND, then every living being, EVERY
LEAST ATOM, ETC.,  is an aspect of the UNIVERSAL BRAIN.

Kosmos to micro-cosmos -- all united.  But even unity in
manifestation is limited by the united force of the WHOLE, and
the distribution to the various parts is proportional to their
needs.  When we get exhausted we sleep.  during that period,
mysteriously, our vitality is restored.   How  ?  By what ?  What
is the nature of being exhausted ?  What is lost or gained ?
Exchange or attunement of vibratory rates is a good idea, but
remains to be proved -- and so on.  Curiously the SECRET DOCTRINE
I have found deals with these vast ideas and makes a systematic
logic of them, their growth and prevalence today.

This conversation is not complete but deserves to be continued, I
think.

Gotta go time short for the moment, be patient, goodbye   Dal.
