    according to the dictionary definition: 'Expressing or dealing with facts or
    conditions as perceived without distortion by personal feelings, prejudices,
    or interpretations.'"

    > In the second case, Mark has answered recently, "We sense harmony, and the
    better the harmony, the sweeter and more unified experience - the closer to
    DQ without destruction."

    what are we harmonizing with and what exactly does it mean to harmonize with
    it?
