Hi Tuukka,
I understand your presentation. When a photon is expressed as some
wave form, the photon is not that wave form, it doesn't exist as such.
The wave form is just one presentation (in static terminology) of
what it is. So, I understand that when you put down "x", that is not
an apparition of romantic quality, you need not preface your
explanation on this inadvertent (by some) confusion of the static
representation for the dynamic essence of something.
When we speak of a "tree", such speach is not the actual tree, for a
tree is not the static quality with which it is presented. The actual
tree is not definable. We use static presentations for the purposes
of sharing the dynamic quality underlying them. It is important not
to get stuck only in the static. Many seem to claim that by talking
about something we make that something static. This is impossible.
Everything is not a matter of patterns, that is just, but one, static
representation. DQ does not exist as patterns, it comes before we
create such things.
I like what you present below.
Cheers,
Mark
