I don't see subjective as analogy only, but I see
objective as analogy. These are analogies of dq.
When I see a rock, this rock is an analogy, not
different than what I can say, about ultimate reality,
which is nothing-is-static pattern. I can't define
ultimate reality, and a rock can't either. Only human
beings can chat about ultimate reality on this planet,
as far as I know. Yet, rock does not side step into
its' own little ultimate reality different from
ultimate reality.

Very real analogies of ultimate reality.

I don't see these as subject and objective horns.
Analogies at all levels.

I never said non-analogies.

Never said non-analogy.

That's an analogy, thanks. It's all quality,
right?
