Hi,
Perhaps because it sets you free.  It does me.

I have been trying to do so through rhetoric, but you will not be aware of them until you open the doors.  All I can provide are keys, what you do with them is up to you.

I understand we all might find different aspects of the MoQ important, and may approach that interest from different points-of-view.  Broadly, I tend to want to consider a pattern from a position of its opposite.  That allows for the widest range of possibilities for individual instances and the most dynamic point-of-view.  But that's just my opinion.  Bottomline, for me, is that Reality = Experience(patterned experience/unpatterned experience).   I think to categorize patterns into the four-level, evolutionary, hierarchical structure:  inorganic, biological, social and intellectual is brilliant, rational, modern, and suggests a way to bridge Western science with Eastern wisdom.  But this is only my own perspective.
