Appendix 1 (May 12 2007) part 2

2:16 - contextualization, green postmodernism sounds like Maha Ati (but there's no injunction)

11:55 - generally, ontology is the study of being

12:26 - epistemology is the study of knowing

12:50 - metaphysics is the study of reality

18:33 - while in I Am-ness, there's not even a sense of I-ness; there's no first or second or third person; there's just everything arising and self-cognizing

18:43 - as soon as there's a boundary in your own self, that indicates others (God, perhaps, or others like yourself)

19:16 - Nirvikalpa - without form; Savikalpa - with form

19:26 - Nirguna Brahman is Brahman without qualities and can only be known through the injunctions to awaken the direct experience of it

20:57 - coming out of an experience of oneness, then experiencing a boundary (and thus, others) can be overwhelming

24:21 - agape is the love that embraces

24:24 - you get to nonduality by having the union of emptiness and form; when emptiness and form are one, that's nonduality

25:04 - could emptiness emerge?

26:08 - Nirguna Brahman has no qualities; Saguna Brahman has qualities

26:43 - Saguna Brahman is evolving; emptiness isn't

26:52 - Whitehead divides Godhead into primordial nature and consequent nature

27:02 - primordial nature is Sine qua non, necessary qualities

27:29 - consequent nature is the sum total of the evolving world

27:42 - Saguna Brahman has an agape, a reaching down to embrace everything that has emerged; and has an eros, a reaching forward to its higher unions

33:29 - anything you say about emptiness will have an opposite; therefore, incorrect

34:40 - every holon has four drives, two vertical and two horizontal

34:49 - the drive upwards toward greater wholeness is eros

34:55 - the drive downward that embraces what is already in existence is agape

35:06 - the two horizontal drives are agency and communion, the drive to be whole and autonomous, and the drive to be a part of something, to be in relationship

35:33 - if you're just talking about the relative realm, you can say that nonduality is the union of eros and agape, agency and communion

55:48 - I, we, it and its co-emerge
