Is it really that difficult to suppose that the facets of human consciousness and experience which remain unexaminable, unprovable, or have been disproven (to ‘be’ what they claim to be) are yet in some what useful or important?

Suppose with me, as an example, that although the Sun is -not a god-, what happens to a human that relates to the Sun as a transcendental being is important both to the human and the world of humans in a way that is demonstrable? I mean, doesn’t it seem reasonable that dream-like ideas and relationships have a real place in human intelligence and even reason? They certainly have a real place in every aspect of my own consciousness and life. I do not want them ruling me as delusions, but neither shall I allow them to be arbitrarily amputated by confused academic authorities.

So, if science (or some other intellectual bully) runs around -telling- us what things and beings (and relationships) can or must or cannot (meaningfully) be… couldn’t this be as or even more dangerous than the ‘ordinary’ misapprehensions which woke (specific mouthpieces of) science to inquisitional fervor against these strange monsters in the collective closet in the first place?

We never get intelligence without dream-like ideas and reverie. Part of our desire to exorcise our species of superstitions is useful and important, but we must be careful. A human being is not a map or a skeleton. The Sun is definitely not merely a fusion event in spacetime. It is, in fact, the source of beings who have ideas about what the Sun is. Science actually has no idea how to talk about that.

But the dreaming mind does. So for all of science’s power, I will keep my relationship to the strange, the metaphoric, the integral, the speculative, and the wondrous. I will keep my awe, and my clear sense that the froth does not tell the ocean what it is. Or that it is merely nonsense.
