On my Christmas
Holiday Cartoons in the last decade I also speak to these
speculations.
Let's Get Started:
Can you do that? I mean, unwrap reality? At all? Much less differently?
The answer is why not? It's sort of like unfolding
an origami cootie-catcher in 6-dimensional space. You can then glimpse
it---reality, that is---from different angles. For example, begin with,
say, that star over there. Not that, that's a floater in your eye.
Okay, that. See, up there on the right?
Okay, here on the left is a modest close-up. Notice the fractal
texture, worlds within worlds. That's how things go in 6-D
'"space." At 6-D, by the way, space is transcended, but we have
to use it to transmit even a hint of what we're talking about to your
eyes-brain.
Of course you're not going to be satisfied with that! You say, "Yes,
but what IS it? It's a universette, my friend. And it has many aspects.
For example, not that one can do a cross-section in 6-D transpace but,
well, try this:
Notice the yantroid
diagrams, vibrating triangular energy fields. Yes, you may have noticed
how they are somewhat like the Shree Yantra featured on other websites,
because those figures are psychically intuited as validly reflecting
the archetypes of interpenetrated, as perceived by the minds of 3-D
beings. There are a number of these creatures in the cosmos and this
general image will become one of the ways you can signal to beings with
very different bio-mental compositions---as long as they are 3-D for
the most part. (You should recognize that to the degree that you follow
what I'm describing, even roughly, you, too, are not entirely limited
by your 3-D bio-perceptive illusions. Ain't direct intuition grand?)
Okay, now zoom in on the aster-oid-oid-oid vibration above and notice
that you begin to discern more complex patterns. You could magnify and
even color these multiple universes within universes. You see, from the
6-D level, we all do live in slightly different universes---all
sentient beings---over six billion just on this planet---and
semi-sentient have also slight different universes... and so forth.
You'd think there's no room, but there's plenty of room---the way
zillions of bits can be encapsulated into a small volume in
cyberspace---.
The thing is to recognize that reality is as finely textured as a
meadow with a swirling brook bordered by a rich forest with mountains
behind under an interestingly clouded sky and populated with
innumerable fauna. Any attempt to capture this in art would do it the
severe disservice of oversimplification. But, well, what tha heck, what
you gotta do ya gotta do. So here's the skinny.
It's glorious, really. In each
cosmos there are forces tumbling, interpenetrating, generating
innmerable permutations. Here is a diagram---I told you that diagraming
doesn't do justice to what we're trying to communicate, but we do what
we can... Perhaps if I explain it with a caption in a double-improvised
hyro-threcian script?
Ah, says you, "I want to know more." Okay, a couple more slices and
levels. The point is that these explorations are un-ending. They evolve
also with your desire, your dream-like capacity to generate worlds
within worlds. Now you can see these permutations:
The
structures involved are geometric flows, shifting among the
numerological potentials. Sometimes 4, 6, 7, 9, and others. These are
for want of a better metaphor, the "bone crystals" of ontological
potential, the structures that make everything so organically formed
and inter-dependent:

And this is only one of a near infinity of
versions. Understand? Oh,
okay, for readers of the other kind:
