** Linear Selves - Embedded in a Non-Linear ALL**

You know, RMT, the title of your post reminds me a little of Don Juan’s description of the personality, or tonal as a bubble of perception in the sea of the nagual.

Excellent association, my friend. I agree. In reading the Don Juan series of books by Castaneda, it was quite apparant to me that Don Juan was indeed talking about the difference between linearity and the larger non-linearity. His lessons on “seeing” as a process where you “look in the spaces between things” were the ones that most made me think of a non-linear mode of perception.

It is my thought that a human baby possesses these capabilities to perceive non-linearly, and it is through our education by our parents and other adults that we are taught to focus only on the linear aspects of our senses.

I agree. I still have alot of infant memories and from what I recall, it’s much like 360 degree reception through senses (hearing, hot - cold temperatures, etc), until through sight something grabs the attention - shape, color, etc (or an extremity of one of the other senses, loud noise, a pinch…).
Much like what we feel now, just not focused or directed through thought + language.
That’s hard to express…thinking without words. I guess it’s kinda’ like thinking through emotion?
After all, logic is supposed to be something that puts emotion ‘in check’ ?
