Paradox...

Without reducing matter to mind or mind to matter, consider that these are two sides of a single polarity. The dynamics generate a paradox, the very heart of dialectics.

When acting as awareness, this "energy gestalt" is at the receiving end of an information exchange. Tapping its rich environment, which at the moment is operating at the other end of the spectrum. The more complex the feedback mechanism the more advanced the life form it supports.

Identity morphs as its perceived form is reflected back. The genesis of in-form-ation.

Everything, of one nature, inseparable, though distinct.

Clinging to a consistent identity is fleeting. Attempts to apprehend this fluid reality leads only to contradiction. How often has history proven this, both individually and collectively?

Dialectic Suchness...

Dialectics; the cyclic exchange of arguments and counter-arguments. Could this be ingrained in the fabric of the universe? Like the "anomaly" that was in "The Matrix" movies. Is this why various arguments for the nature of reality never seem to find an adequate toehold? Whether those arguments are for subjectivity or objectivity, free will or determinism, theism or atheism, and on, and on.

We subsequently are left with an eternal interaction flowing on no fixed frame of reference. Becomings, not things. Unity hidden in apparent duality. Not opposites, more a polarity, transitive.

What manifests is constantly being transformed by this very nature. Not matter nor mind. Neither this, nor that, nor neither, nor both. Just so. Suchness.
