meaning is strictly a product of our consciousness, That, to me, is like saying that gravity exists as a product of consciousness. The thing you describe, meaning, is a combination of information and context. TP seems to view this more inertly than I do. I feel that this "flow" of information plus context is an awareness. Does that mean that rocks think? Not like we do but they do store and record information about their journey. We used to use the phrase "the rocks tell a story of ..." or "the rock record says" in Geology Camp. I never really considered the anthropomorphic angle to this, but in a really strange way, it is similar to what I'm describing. It is the recording process that TP is describing. But there is a sophistication component that goes along with this recording process that is an analog to JPEG compression. The record of the rock is poorly coded and very literal. The coding of this post is highly symbolic. I think they are exactly the same thing. The Awareness (as my Dad calls it) or Cosmic Force (as I call it)is really a variable much like mass, but describes the active process of information coding, transfer and utilization. This parameter exists in degrees of complexity, I think.
