Introduction
I T HAS sometimes been said that life is a journey.
This is true in many senses. Life is a physical journey through
the material phases of birth, childhood, maturity, old age, and
death. In the life of intellect, one journeys through ever enlarging
vistas of conceptualization. Emotions constitute a world through
which life takes one up mountains of happiness and joy and through
valleys of sadness and despair. Personality interaction -- the
knowing that one is not alone; the discovery of personal values
and the ineffable sense of having been touched by the presence
of one other than oneself -- is perhaps the greatest of
all the aspects of the journey of life.
To each person is given the responsibility to chart those phases
of one's journey that are within the range of choice. Fortunate
is the one whose inner conceptual charts for the multifaceted
journey are rendered in outlines that match with one another,
whose inner perspectives for the physical, intellectual, emotional,
personal, and otherwise differentiated aspects of the life's journey
are mutually consistent and descriptive of the environment through
which one must pass.
My own charts have in part taken on the form of an emerging conceptual
model of multilevelate reality. I would like to share, with those
of you who wish, the thrill of a unifying vision of all reality,
by having you accompany me on some portions of my journey -- present,
past, and future. Together we can trek to the place from which
we can wonder at the sparkling unity of The Diamond Ladder of
multilevelate reality, whose gleaming rungs are the entire creation
in terms of elemental unary, binary, and trinary aspects
of reality chained together through the triates of identity. We can move
onward to that theoretically dimensionless place from which we
can gaze up at the absoluteness of the dimensionalities -- the
continuums -- as they radiate in eternal majesty from The
Spoked Hub.
Our explorations will take us to the mysterious doors of the secrets
of physical existence, which will open to our knock. Passing
through, we together will view the incomprehensible patterning
of motion-as-form, The Flame Shaper spinning out similitudes of
man and star. The miracles of translevelational and transdimensional
effects -- interreality joinings -- will unfold
to us as we witness the mighty transference of reality factors
across the limitlessness of The Chasm Conquered.
Through all of our adventuring and observing having become seasoned
travelers with experienced eyes trained to the same objects, we
will put to work the magic of The Pearl Stringer, the coordinator
of diverse universe reality and differing conceptual perspectives:
we will search with fresh eyes, through the new systematic framework,
for regular and pervasive realities concealed in some tenets of
science, philosophy, and religion.
Having ascended, level by level, a view of unifying reality, having together developed detailed awareness models of the pulse points of time and eternity, we will then step out onto the starry summit of the perceptual model of far-flung multilevelate universe reality. And here, together but profoundly alone in this final phase of our shared quest, we will each enter upon the greatest upreach of which we are capable, in an attempt to perceive the majestic passage of that singular universe reality,The Rainbow Swan.
