Static in the gravity field has been attributed to a magnification of the planck-sized (i.e. inconceivably small) froth? Entanglement of particles? Too many of these mysteries piling up! The \u201ccave wall\u201d refers to Plato\u2019s parable of the cave, and what we\u2019re talking about is how this all works, and is it connected with the many mysteries? Is this God\u2019s physiology in this corner or surface of the cosmos?<\/p>\n<p>What kind of paradigm shift will be needed? My hunch is that it will include also the mysteries of consciousness and the way we collectively and individually unconsciously co-create the cosmos, and that if we can surrender in the right way&#8212;doing 1\/3 of the stepping up to the plate, taking responsibility, but then surrendering, it will optimally unfold. Can I explain what I\u2019m talking about? Yes, at length (see my other weblogs on \u201cConfabulations\u201d under the category called \u201cFoolin\u2019 Around.) Do I have any belief that what I explain is literally true? Nope. How much do I mean all this, in a general sense? It used to be 80%, then 90% a decade ago, and now it\u2019s 100%. But I can\u2019t explain what I mean cleanly because it isn\u2019t something that human minds can convert into language. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a previous blog-post, I was reflecting on the acceleration of the appearance of mysteries.
