I remember being illuminated at one time by the idea that we are not only liberated by an idea, but that the very act of verbalizing the idea is the act of building a series of walls, within which we then must live.
Religion of course is a prime example of that. Trying to define God, Heaven, Love, Salvation, etc. allows us to contemplate the infinite, but those same definitions creates a finite limit to the ideas.
“We are imprisoned by facts.”
>it’s because truth is, at its core, abstract. it defies all definition whatsoever.
i think that the entire universe/god/truth is a huge, pulsing, infinite-dimensional wave, containing all life, all information, all emotion, all truth, all energy, all matter, and all of everything there ever is or was or will be.
and also, probably some other stuff too. ha ha
