What do you think of this Reality in which we live?
Salaams to all.
this is a wide open question to be interpreted in any fashion that you think is appropriate to you.
"What do you think of this Reality in which we live?"
the question is inspired by: In Search of the Miraculous, p. 77
EVERY PHENOMENON, ON WHATEVER SCALE and in whatever world it may take place, from molecular to cosmic phenomena, is the result of the combination or the meeting of three different and opposing forces. Contemporary thought realizes the existence of two forces and the necessity of these two forces for the production of a phenomenon: force and resistance, positive and negative magnetism, electricity, male and female cells, and so on. But it does not observe even these two forces always and everywhere. No question has ever been raised as to the third, or if it has been raised it has scarcely been heard.
bonus question: what associations/thoughts etc. does this extract make for you? please discuss if you feel so inclined.
wa salaams.
