About Me
Belief in reality itself is a matter of faith. That belief is only an impulse and yet it is vitally necessary. Skepticism is a result of realizing that our animalistic faith in Being is groundless. Reason is possible when we confront our naive beliefs with the possibilities and probabilities of existence. All we are left with in the end is a mixed bag of personal experiences which can only tell us what is more probable through comparison. However, in those moments when we allow our minds to submit to what Is--- to be in awe of the Universe without any superstition or dogmatic belief intervening to tell us what it is limited to or what it should be like, we have opened ourselves to the Ultimate, inscrutable though it seems.
