From: To: Cc: Subject: Re: [Sadhu SarTga] The False Elephant and the False Ego Sent: Saturday, January 7, 2017 11:53:54 AM Deepak Chopra Sungchul Ji How about the following : Perceived Reality is the differentiation of Knower Knowing and Known in awareness ( consciousness being ) It is born and labeled and dies in every moment of experience. Objects are space time events in consciousness. Facts are modes of knowing Perceived Reality is different in different states of consciousness. Fundamental Reality is timeless is never born and not subject to death . Pun ji correctly states that atoms and particles are born in the minds of theoretical physicists. Their given names are human constructs for modes of experience They are useful models of reality but not reality itself .

"The reality we accept is a human construct." (Deepak Chopra) "The reality we conceptualize stems from living- the experience of which cannot be a construct." (Bhakti Madhava Pun) These two statements seem mutually contradictory and antagonistic if the word "reality" is interpreted in the Saussurean (1857-19130) dyadic manner (i.e., based on the signifier-signified, or sign-object dyad) but not if interpreted in a irreducibly triadic manner of Charles Sanders Peirce (1839-1914) (i.e., based on the object-sign-interpretant triad). According to Peirce, all words are irreducibly triadic, including the word "reality", which idea can be represented diagrammatically as shown below: f g REALITY: Reality as Is -> Reality as Experienced ----> Reality as Modeled (Firstness) (Secondness) (Thirdness) <Object> <Sign> <Interpretant> A EFTA_R1_01353564 EFTA02361639
