<"So you are disputing that there can be any common ideas that are discoverable independantly"> <<ABSTRACT: The hypothesis of formative causation predicts that as animals of a given species learn a new pattern of behaviour, other similar animals will subsequently tend to learn the same thing more readily all over the world, a a result of a process called morphic resonance. The more that learn it, the easier it should become for others.>> DAK

"They might know it as "ooh" or "ih". ooh and ih works just as well as 'rock'. We were not discussing the meaningfulness and richness of individual experience, we were discussing the experience of an idea, which is at once an individual experience, and at the same time experiencial for others. TP said the idea is someplace or it could not be discovered 'known'. Some people call that place the 'ether', and think of it as a fourth dimension. I don't care what it is called but the three dimensions of physics certainly are not comfortable with it, nor can we explain our awareness without its usage.
