MOQ postulates that the ruling Western World View is the 
Subject/Object - aka Mind/Matter (abbreviated SOM). You postulate 
that the S/O split (or in your lingo between the Sensible Agent and its 
Awareness) is no "world view" because it is reality itself - existence's 
deepest ground. Is that right? It must be possible to smoke you out.  

So no more for now.
