Leon's ABC's and some of his posts tend to 
remind me about the "proofs" in String Theory 
re the unification of Quantum Mechanics and 
Einstein's Relativity. Apparently there's 
been, so far, as far as I know, at least 5 
such equational "proofs." More to come, 
maybe? That is, apparently the "quantum 
world" ("small/micro world") is not 
describable/compatible in terms of laws we're 
"used to" to some extent (which laws 
reference the "large/macro world" or 
Einstein's Theory of Relativity), so, unless 
I'm wrong, String Theory was introduced as a 
theoretical perspective by which one might 
unify the apparent incompatibility between, 
in effect, "small" and "large," Quantum 
Mechanics and Relativity, respectively. 
But/"but" ...

Anyway, those strings bring to mind Leon's 
ABC's. But why not basically admit, per 
whatever "apparent/applicable sense making 
terms," to a "unifying theory/view" that (as 
per Theosophy and the Esoteric Tradition, 
incidentally) ... that that might kind of 
boil things down to essentials (or 
"Essentials"?) out of which might be seen to 
arise the depencent arisings (or karmic 
reality) of apparent or "ordinary reality" 
which, in turn, might be seen as having at 
least two aspects: "mayavic" and "less 
mayavic" in keeping with at least two 
aspects: "mayavic" and "less mayavic" in 
keeping with at least two aspects: "mayavic" 
and "less mayavic" in keeping with at least 
two aspects: "mayavic" and "less mayavic" in 
keeping with ... etc, etc, etc ... Well, 
maybe that kind of thinking might not go over 
too well with some people, so I guess some of 
those "unifying" equations (no matter how 
many there might be a few years from now, for 
whatever reason ...) might seem more proof 
related, somehow, in general (ie, apparently 
sort of regardless of whatever the "proof," 
in turn, might lead to, in general, I tend to 
suspect).

Speculatively,
