The Architect

If logic ultimately begs itself, (One relies on logic because logically it is reliable) is it a useful tool for knowledge? Is knowledge even plausible?

...Something else entirely? Perhaps nothing at all?

If a set of rules establishes order to reality, then which set of rules constitutes those rule's existence?

Can there only be one law to govern the whole? What would that law be?

Also, given the sensation that we have experienced the present moment in the past while it is unfolding, is this knowledge of Déjà vu even 'a posterirori' at all?

Please support your answers with careful reasoning.

During consciousness we create for our being an identity, but this identity is a representation created through a construct similar to language. We could never define our being to truth if we tried, because it will always be superior to any understanding. We can only come to know ourselves symbolically, the truth always lying hidden. We wander lost in what is a reality unfamiliar to us.

When in unconsciousness, like deep sleep, we become free from this illusion. We remain our being, closet to its nature,:undefined, for it is not definable, in a void of no time or space, always in peace and without corruption.

Which sounds closest to freedom?

For it is better to conquer one's self than to conquer the world.

How does one do it?

Who is aware of the observer?

Here it is the dead which gives life to the living.

Isn't the one who gives life the one who rules over the living?

Is this life ruled by death?

...as the status quo?

What decides that, majority rule?

If God loves all His children, would God give the devil His throne?

...does that mean God is perceiving Himself and being Himself at the same time?

What more can you be?

(thoughts vs emotions)

Does an idea take up space?

If so, does that make the universe infinite?

--

Are we ourselves just an idea?

Assuming you could, of course, you obviously can't see yourself.

Also answer with the other senses.

If you could taste the entire universe at once, what would it taste like?

etc..

We have our 5 senses, but can a thought also be a sense, since we do perceive thoughts? When in a dream, I believe I am using my sense of sight, but it is simply a thought, a process of my mind. What exactly is the difference between a thought and that which we perceive with our senses? Sight is perceived with our eyes, smell with our nose, so then are thoughts perceived with our minds?

If we consider the thoughts in our heads as an extension of us, must we then consider reality perceived with our other 5 senses as extensions of us as well (not limited to our own body)?

The butterfly effect states that a butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil can set of a chain reaction that creates a tornado in Texas. Everything is interconnected in this way. So do you take responsibility for all the world's problems/sins considering every personal behavior of yours led to the outcome of this world? Or do you believe you are only responsible for your own problems/sins?

"We imagine the real story inside the words, and to do this we substitute ourselves for the person in the story, pretending that we can understand him because we understand ourselves. This is a deception. We exist for ourselves, perhaps, and at times we even have a glimmer of who we are, but in the end we can never be sure, and as our lives go on, we become more and more opaque to ourselves, more and more aware of our own incoherence. No one can cross the boundary into another—for the simple reason that no one can gain access to himself."
