Fractal/symbolic understanding and The book of life/gospel of nature/history

[@thecrimsonpookashell4485]

Is it something like that : Nighttime is for the subconsciousness, where the consciousness can only behold what the subconsciousness presents (like dreaming). Morning is for a dialogue between the subconsciousness and consciousness, where the dialogue enriches the consciousness with wisdom. Noon is for the consciousness to stop staring at the subconsciousness, because (as you were suggesting, I think) you'd burn out or go mad or eventually have a nervous breakdown, but that the enrichment gives you bonus power "Today" to deal with our neighbors and responsibilities. And then perhaps the dialogue begins again in the Evening; and Evening leads back to a Nighttime. And this is a cycle, or continuum, for as long as we sufficiently have consciousness. (??)

Yeah. That’s the fractal. It’s like v swimming or any other technique so you could always say it better or more precisely or find better ways to traction into it

[@Aquaticphilosophia]

But yeah that’s super solid for a new contemplation. Chew on it a bit and see if you can observe a pattern of being externally that you consider to be a mystery in yourself or in God and see if that external pattern can direct your inner gaze into a direct knowing/personal participation. The sun or water’s relationship to objects connects to many patterns of being

@@Aquaticphilosophia Thanks. What's your favorite reference material (book, et) for what we're talking about?

[@Aquaticphilosophia]

@@thecrimsonpookashell4485 My stuff is fairly unique to me. Anything by St Maximus the confessor, Pavel Florenski, Johnathan pageau. This book is extremely close to what I’m talking about though he has less water influence. I’m basically just talking about patterns in water, which is also all of perceptual creation as experienced through the body.
