[MD] Emptiness & Quantum Mechancics

I'm glad you asked Marsha, because guess what, I know the answer!  It's an
old answer, and it sounds trite at first, but if you think about it you will
realize that I am right.

 it's the rules of the game for the structure of all 4th level evolution.
Truth is DQ to the intellectual level.  And Keats formulation, Truth=Beauty
rings true in that "intellect" includes both the classic and romantic ways
of knowing.  In a philosophical sense, it's a subjective Ideal by which we
come to understanding.

It is within you!  Quality on this intellectual level, adheres very much to
the formulation, you can't define it, but you can know it.  Truth is in
mind.  You could say that Mind is dependent upon truth, for it is really a
fundamental values issue, and fundamental values are fundamental to
everything, in the MoQ.

Meditate.  But don't meditate upon nothingness, or you will obtain
nothingness.  Meditate upon truth and you will know truth.  It's really very
simple.


Pragmatically speaking.
