Re: [microsound] beginning-less universe

John, inspiring!  very zen

Indeed the nature of the universe is such that balance exists among chaos.
The dualism is only natural to some extent.  Often overlooked is the process
by which the dualities effect each other, the gray area in between, and the
extremes beyond each polar idea.  We should not be bound by any world view,
binary (discrete) or analog (continuous).  The universe is both, we are
both, we are a part of the universe and the universe is a part of us.
Paradox only exists in our lack of understanding, it is on the path towards
truth.  Context gives meaning, light is not darkness, darkness is not light,
they are each the same.
