But seriously, all great music aside:

Benedict, when you're referring to "reality," are you actually meaning "existence?" Perhaps, mathematics is but one of the many consequences of existence...and as such actually inconsequential...? It's a great example of how becoming bogged down in ONE aspect of the minutiae of existence breaks down the "Big Picture" (Oneness, Unity, Truth, etc.).

I must return to a view I posted on P65 of the thread regarding "The Root of All Evil," that indeed "form follows function." The function being Purpose/Knowledge/Objective and form being Creation/Existence/Subjective...or that physical existence is the aesthetic creation of the meta-physical.

So, slowly arriving at my point, I will repeat here what I have posted on P85 of "The Root of All Evil:"

"My near-death experience convinced me of the validity of the enternal/infinite. For me this is immutable. The experience was LIGHT/music, coupled with one feeling that is all of these: absolute ecstatic bliss/peace/assurance/sanctity/celebration/communion. the music was the medium for communication, both holistically and individually (speech/thought)."

I cannot describe it any better than as one note that embodied everything positive. Now, THAT'S ART!

Existence is infinitely/eternally dynamic - down to the last most infinitesimal particle. Nothing is inert. All is imbued with energy. Everything is "alive."
