I'm speculating that sense and truths
and reality might be seen (in some
cases, if not very generally ...) as
having a relational/interpretive aspect
or "apparent basis" per whatever
"karmic/interpretive influence/tendency"
("selective" quotes per interpretive
variability), so that one person's
sense, truth or reality could be
another's whatever, basically, or "in a
sense"... (except maybe where more
stability might be somewhat generally
desired by way of "broader terms" as per
worldviews, eg, where "sense making"
and "mutual agreements" might be seen to
"facilitate coping" in terms of "life in
general" ...).
Speculatively,
Mauri
PS in keeping with my attempts to turn
over a newer leaf, I first wrote the
preceding with no quotes in it at all,
but then, while rereading that paragraph
my "sense making" ("apparently"...) sort
of suggested I put them in there as a
way of attempting to suggest (at least
"selectively") something or other about
what I tend to see ("apparently"...) as
a kind of "basically interpretive nature
of things in general," but where "some
things" might be "selected" or
interpreted as having a "too obviously
interpretive/Mayavic aspect in terms
of r/Reality," and so might be "better
off" in quotes, at least ... or "at
least," no matter how oddly "selective"
they might appear to be. Alternatively,
I guess I could put everything in
quotes (short of using no quotes at all,
like they might do in Tibet, apparently
...), but then I really don't see how I
could attempt to be "more specific" that
way about "intended meaning re
'keyishness of interpretive aspects'" in
certain kinds of contexts (as "per
Theosophical modeling," eg ...). Not
convinced? How about the use of quotes
as reminders to "read between some
lines," maybe (if "exoteric versions"
are not seen to be in short supply
during one's Theosophical studies
...)... ?
