Absolute Quotes

“The phenomenal world is only a different domain of the noumenal world. It is the “intention” of the noumenal to become, on some level, phenomenal. Although from the perspective of the phenomenal, noumenal seems to be metaphysical and transcendent, from the perspective of the noumenal, phenomenal is immanent. Regardless of not having direct immaterial access to the noumenal, through our experience of the phenomenal, we experience the noumenal at the same time.”

“In my system of thought, noumenal is the immaterial oneness or singularity, and the phenomenal is “material” plurality. Kant thought that the merging of phenomena and noumena transforms everything into appearances and that this would be the artificial way or “illegitimate” way to experience noumena. Since the created world is an “illusion” (conditionally speaking), everything stays noumena. Still, on the superficial level of the made reality, we experience the hierarchies and degrees of the qualities of the new reality.”

“The new “reality” requires different experiences and imposes other instruments of experience. The World beyond “new reality” does not require sensory experience. Universal Mind (we can equate it with Noumenon) is still the underlying reality, hypostasis of all, and our experience of “reality,” or phenomenal, is, at the same time, the experience of the noumenal, but on the minuscule level. This ability of the noumenal to transform into phenomenal is the secret of existence, life, purpose, and meaning. We may say that, without appearances or phenomena, noumenal loses meaning.”

“The things in themselves (or the thing in itself) do not exist in the noumenal realm; they are only the potential of noumenal. The Noumenal exercises its potential in the phenomenal realm. There is no way to experience a thing in itself because appearances are not direct reflections or copies of ideal forms/ideas nor the appearances of things in themselves, but the expressions of the noumenal through phenomenal. Appearances do not have the corresponding reality of the things in themselves in the noumenal but are the products of the absolute potential of the noumenal.”

“This absolute potential possesses potential for unlimited variations. The possibility for variations is infinite. The infinite potential and possibility in its total capacity are unknown even to the Noumenon itself, and that is probably the main secret and beauty of existence, of the noumenal and of phenomenal, the main secret of the Being capable of becoming and capable of just being the Being in all its glory and potential.”

“When we use the word illusion, we mean something is not real in a broader sense. Yet, how do we define reality and illusion? Does reality depend on our senses, understanding, and definitions or on what it is objectively? Why would our senses, “definitions,” and “understanding,” or lack of it, not be reality irrespective of our idea of reality? What constitutes reality? Who decides what reality is? Would it not be logical that whatever exists is real? Even if something does not exist, we can imagine the reality of nonexistence. If everything that exists is real, we can only talk about the degrees or levels of reality without denying reality to something we do not understand. Our lack of understanding shall not be an obstacle to reality but a motivator to try harder and get closer to the most “real” of what is possible.”

“Only the world of Oneness and Unity (Singularity) is a universal reality without hierarchies. Still, the World of plurality and dispersed Oneness is the world of hierarchies, orders, degrees of life, understanding, and evolution. In a World of total Oneness, there is no evolution. Evolution and real life are only possible when they become less “real,” when something leads to something else, when something seeks something else, when something is bigger than something else, and when we crave and desire. The purpose of reality is life. The real way of life is motion. Without motion, there is no life. What secures the motion, whether matter is real or a product of a Universal Mind, is less important than the ultimate purpose of it all, and the ultimate purpose is to preserve life and meaning against nothingness.”

“Indeed, we do not experience noumena directly. Still, since the phenomena are the program of the noumenon or the transformed noumenon itself, we may be able to think and understand (to some extent) the thing in itself, Noumenon or the Being (Universal Mind). Although transcendent, Noumenon is immanent at the same time. Phenomena are the emanations of the Noumenon.”

“Our senses, cognition, and understanding are the result of conditioning. We are not the creators of our senses or our cognition and understanding in the deepest and fullest sense. Without our conditioning, there would be nothing. Senses, cognition, and understanding among human beings may differ only in degree, based on education or intellectual capacity, but not in mystical or mysterious ways.”

“We can follow Plato and Kant and agree that the world of phenomena is an illusion and that noumenon is reality. Still, we must add that reality is lost or undermined without this illusion. In this way of reasoning, we conclude that although reality is the creator of an illusion in the form of an “artificial” reality or the world, this “illusion” is also the creator of the reality of the Being itself or the thing in itself. Both reality and illusion are equally important. Without the one, the other loses its meaning and purpose.”

“We may ask the question: What is reality? What is the real or objective reality? Finally, we may be surprised by the ultimate answer of reality: that the thing or reality is the illusion itself because the Ultimate Source, the Ultimate Reality, at its supreme point, is equal to Nothingness. That would mean that the Ultimate Reality is Nothingness. The Ultimate Source is the Ultimate Potential. Whether the actualization of this potential is reality or illusion is irrelevant. What is important is the existence and realization of the potential.”

“Absolute” velocity happens when the primary quality of all existence or Universal Mind shows its power in action, being everywhere simultaneously, not only faster than the speed of light but at the absolute speed, which is omnipresence. On this level, the time is absolute, and there is no relativity. Relativity of time is possible within the "visible" realm of reality and not in the manifestation (action) of the primary quality of a Universal Mind. Primary quality functions within the realm of Zero, securing omnipresence in the eternal present. Eternity is an absolute present. Relativity of time is possible only if there are the past and the future, not the present. The present is frozen. The present is Zero, and Zero is absolute in its way.”

“For the universe to have an answer, there must be a universal perspective, what we might call a God perspective or Absolute perspective, and only from this perspective can the answer to everything be given. It is most certainly not a subjective human perspective, chosen for “convenience”. It is in fact the immaterial perspective of light, outside space and time, which sees the whole of existence as a single point! That’s what reality is – that one, ineffable point.”

“Einstein looked at the Lorentz transformations and saw only one perspective – that of observers in spacetime (he focused on v, not c). It never even occurred to him to consider the same transformations from the other available perspective, that of light, the absolute condition (what happens if you focus on c, not v?!).”

“Einstein completely failed to address the elephant in the room, namely that light – from its own perspective – isn’t in any inertial reference frame. We can therefore legitimately say that it obeys entirely different laws of physics – those of non-locality (singularities) rather than locality (spacetime) – and, in fact, actually the laws of pure mathematics. Light is the non-inertial container for all inertial reference frames, and ensures that they are all part of an absolute system, not a relative system. It imposes a principle of absolutism, not a principle of relativism!”

“Absolute things are eternal and necessary. They are pure Being. Relative things are temporal and contingent. They belong to the order of Becoming. The material universe of space and time is Becoming. Light, however, is Being. Becoming exists within Being, as its construct. Matter exists within light. No one ever said, “Let there be light.” Light has always been, and always will be.”

“The Lorentz transformations unambiguously show that Cartesian dualism is compatible with mainstream science, except this is not true dualism at all. The true reality is the absolute reality of frequency, of light, of mind, of c. The derived reality, the conditional, contingent reality is the relative reality of spacetime, of matter, of v. Therefore, idealism is true, and idealism can fully explain materialism. The reverse cannot be accomplished. Relative materialism cannot explain absolute idealism.”

“Einstein understood all material frames of reference to be relative to each other and to have no absolute material frame of reference to condition them, i.e. he denied the existence of the ether. It never once occurred to him that all material frames of reference are in fact relative to an absolute mental frame of reference, namely that of light, the source of the absolute, the frequency source of the spacetime, material world.”
