It would seem to be in our normal consciousness that
SQ will always dominate the experiential landscape.
The depth and richness, the complexity and intricacy of
what has accumulated in a level, be it the array of niches
in an ecosystem, the dependent melange of a culture,
or the vast discernment and synthesis of all the schools
of thought, are going to be the bulk of manifest subject
matter. That's what we see.
Since it is the relationships within and between what
we perceive that denote the systems and meanings,
the levels of complexity become or approach the
logarithmically exponential.
DQ, despite the infinite possibility, is, except for the
present moment of perception, only seen in its
becoming. That is part of the insight of Zen.
If we hold the complexity in mind, with our normal habit
of consciousness, we will see only tiny "blips" of DQ.
Should we instead release our attachment to the complexity
we perceive in normal consciousness and open ourselves
up to an uncluttered perception of the present moment, we
will see less of the SQ, and DQ will become the far larger
part of our perceiving.
SQ resides in time and habit, it is dependent.
DQ resides in being and without separation
