Expanding Horizons  of Perception

We lengthen our interval of awareness, perceive new levels of change.

 We are focal points within an intricate web of becoming, caught in forces we cannot see or touch, but know only by their behavior.

The threads of awareness between the one and the many are often beyond the horizons of our perceptions - but not beyond our knowing.

We can know them by changing our interval of awareness, seeing changes over longer or shorter intervals of time.

As we alter our interval of awareness we begin to see the intercommunications between the beings around us. These interactions are worth seeing. They are the forces of nature manifesting each being, all change, and every direction. To know them is to grasp the fundamentals of life.

Behavior Zones

A motion picture would yield a more representative likeness of the creature's real biological form and movement but would actually be a series of still photographs projected at 1/25th of a second on a screen. Because the human interval of awareness is about 1/16th of a second, the projected still images would seem to be a continuous, flowing movement. It would seem real, but familiar, within our normal horizons of perception.

Suppose we saw the event from a longer interval of awareness.

If we could somehow see the trajectory and changes of the cuttlefish over the entire five minute interval, the animal would be a tube-shaped behavior zone threading through the sea over the reef.
