"All big ideas are simple"
What if there is something deeper than love?
Logically a spiritual absolute would be the essence of sentience, from which we rise, not an ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which we fell. That we are aware, than the details of which we are aware.
More the new born child, than the wise old man. The light shining through the film, than the images on it.
Yet this power can go in many different ways. As individuals, we are the center of our view of the entire universe, in which while there is sentience, there is no omniscient omnisentience.
So we can connect and grow, becoming a bigger organism. This can network out and feed its world, as its world feeds it, or it can try to crush and control that world with its power, but eventually becoming a scab, that world has to reject.
Time is not the point of the present, moving past to future, but change, turning future to past. Tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns.
There is no literal dimension of time, because the past is consumed by the present, to inform and drive it. Causality and conservation of energy. Cause becomes effect.
Different clocks can run at different rates simply because they are separate actions.
So an organism has to synchronize its clocks, while in an ecosystem, the clocks harmonize, as each finds their space in the larger melody.
Nodes and networks are two sides of the same coin. More yin and yang, than God Almighty.
The absolute and the infinite.
The anarchy of desire and the tyranny of judgement.
The heart and the head.
