Awareness as the Ground of Being

In this universe one thing follows another. We relate to the speed of light, and say nothing can travel faster. Today, we know that two "entangled" bits of matter, though separated by vast distance, immediately co-respond to stimulus applied to one. Some say there was no message sent. The co-response is due to the "oneness" of reality. I believe messages can be sent over a vast distance immediately. This retains the separable nature of reality, and assures that man has self-emanated choice-free will. Man is not a machine, programmed to act according to what his genes dictate. Time and distance are relative also, and primarily, to the immediacy of consciousness.

Alfred John Dalrymple attended what was, then, the oldest primary school in America-the Haven-a red brick building that emphasized the use of reason rather than church teachings to acknowledge the spirit. His latest work is about consciousness beyond man. This result was not arrived at through the unquestioned certainties of the church, but after using reason, cautiously, to acknowledge man's "between thoughts" condition.
