5.3.3. Perception, experience and thought
Having described how information, time and space arise through the Experience Circle, the theory now turns towards the experience of reality itself. The question is no longer how manifestation is organised, but how it appears to a point of focus that experiences it.
This section examines the relationship between perception and physics, how manifest experience relates to the timeless whole of KNOWING, and how thoughts and brain activity can be understood as two sides of the same underlying event. The perspective thus shifts from the structure of reality to the experience of reality.
The points that follow elaborate the horizon between that which exists as a relational whole within KNOWING and that which appears as living experience in consciousness. Here it is described how meaning, perception, preferences, thoughts and mental processes arise through the reading of relations in the Experience Circle. At the same time, this establishes the foundation for the theory’s understanding of the relationship between consciousness and brain, and for the claim that experience and physical manifestation are complementary expressions of the same underlying dynamics.
