502.00 Experience

502.01 Experience is the raw-material of science.

502.02 It is the nature of all our experiences that they begin and end. They are packaged. Our experiences, both physical and metaphysical, are all finite because they all begin and end. Experience is always special-case. Special cases are all biterminal, i.e., having both beginning and ending.

502.03 Complexity: Experiences are never elementary; ergo, they are always complex. The concept one as unity is only available in respect to one- half of twoness. There is no experience without the finite furniture of two- ness.

502.04 Thinking is inherently exclusive. Experience, which comes before thinking, is inherently inclusive.

502.05 Experience is always special case but always governed by generalized laws. Among the generalized laws governing experience is the law that there are three directional aspects of all experience: in, out, and around. These directions manifest an inward-outward pulsing and a surface-articulated patterning. The pulsing patterning has six consequences:

1. the change in size wave frequency;

2. the plurality of precessionally induced surface vertex-vortex rotations of the expansive-contractive pulsations acting as omninonpolar vertex, alternately winding and unwinding, alternately and symmetrically to take in the slack of the contracting system or unwinding locally to permit symmetrical expansion;

3. the inherent axial rotation of the whole system;

4. the inherent orbitally occasioned surface changings occasioned by external forces operating precessionally upon the conceptual system considered;

5. the precessionally induced inside-outing transformations; and

6. the local-surface spiral wrinklings caused by axial torque; i.e., when opposite poles rotate in opposite directions (as with the Earth’s clockwise rotation of high-pressure, clear-weather atmospheric motions and the counterclockwise, spirally wrinkled, cloud-cover pattern of the low-pressure stormy weather in the Northern Hemisphere and the oppositely spiraling behaviors in the Southern Hemisphere in respect to the same fair and stormy weather conditions).

502.10 Many years ago, I developed a system of question-asking in which I ruled that I must always answer the questions from experience. My answers must not be based on hearsay, beliefs, axioms, or seeming self-evidence.

502.11 It has been part of my experience that there are others who, while experiencing what I was experiencing, were able to describe what we mutually were experiencing as well as, or better than, I could. Therefore, my experience taught me that I could trust the reporting of some others as reliable data to be included in my “answering” resources. For instance, I could include the experimentally derived data of scientists.

502.12 I am willing to accredit the experiences of other men when I am convinced by my experiences that they communicate to me faithfully; that is, I am able to enlarge my experience by the experience of others.

502.13 Certainly, my experience and your experience includes the fact that we dream. This doesn’t have to be realized reality. There may be people who lie to you, but manipulation of the data doesn’t alter your determination to rely upon experience, for it now becomes a part of your experience that some people lie, and you learn which ones are reliable as suppliers of your experience inventorying. Our experience includes the becoming. It includes the multiplication of experiences. It includes dichotomy.

502.20 All experiences are finitely furnished with differentiated cognitions, recognitions, and comprehensions. The finite furniture consists of widely ranging degrees of comprehensive constellar complexities.

502.21 Experience is inherently discontinuous and islanded. Each special experience represents a complex of generalized principles operative in localangle and frequency-modulated realizations.

502.22 Among the irreversible succession of self-regenerative human events are experiences, intuitions, speculations, experiments, discoveries, and productions. Because experience always alters previous experience, the process is both irreversible and nonidentically repetitive.

502.23 Since experience is finite, it can be stored, studied, directed, and turned with conscious effort to human advantage. This means that evolution pivots on the conscious, selective use of cumulative human experience and not on Darwin’s hypothesis of chance adaptation to survival nor on his assumption of evolution independent of individual will and design.

502.24 Consciousness is experience. Experience is complex consciousness of being, of self coexisting with all the nonself. Experience is plural and nonsimultaneous. Experience is recurrent consciousness of sequences of self reexperiencing similar events. Reexperienced consciousness is recognition. Re-cognitions generate identifications. Re-cognition of within-self rhythms of heartbeat or other identities generates a matrix continuum of time consciousness upon which, as on blank music lines, are superimposed all the observances by self of the nonself occurrences.

502.25 Experience is inherently omnidirectional; ergo, there is not just one “other.” There are always at least twelve “others.” The connection.between the six degrees of freedom and omnidirectionality is, of course, the vector equilibrium. Pulsation in the vector equilibrium is the nearest thing we will ever know to eternity and god: the zerophase of conceptual integrity inherent in the positive and negative asymmetries that propagate the problems of consciousness evolution. Our inherently limited perceptivity requires these definitions of the asymmetric emphasis of experience. Experience is inherently terminal, partial, and differentiable: the antithesis of eternal integrity.
