- 2014.11.08 (audio only)Here’s the tape. The conversation was largely about whether
empiricism is defensible. More interesting to me was the
conversation at about the hour mark that turned around the idea
that Platonic thought and those like it speak a different language
based in experience of the brilliant light of being. -Barbara - 2014.10.18

- 2014.09.20 Jeff’s Dream ExplorationJeff’s dream exploration. What is the mystery (of the dream)? Pathalogos. Problem of Ignorance.“Not possible to not communicate a pathalogos. The parent does not know it is a pathalogos.”“All observational statements, appear to be non-controversial, however, in the choice of the object you are going to describe empirically, you are already appointing a certain value of this over that… Pathalogos is a parental ‘truth’… The highest vision you have that you really believe you don’t know that you believe it… We are here to solve the problem of ignorance.”

With a series of analogy you can present them hierarchically.”
