…correlated so that they can be proven to have intersubjective and/or replicatable validity. All of this despite the fact that within the “real rules” of the Newtonian-Cartesian paradigm they have absolutely no possibility of existing or being able to happen.... Yet they do. Similarly, within the “real world” of “brute facts” related to biological survivability they seemingly find no place.... Yet we stumble over them.

If all of this were not enough, we find that these incorrigible facts provide more than a pathway to a glimpse outside our biological blinders, more than a puncture in our epistemological seal, and more than a transcendence of our biological paradigm. We find that this information from “outside” the table of our biological board game is less biologically useless than was thought from within the borders of that board game. We find, indeed, that our species’s assessment through natural selection of that which exists beyond it was less than perfect. We find that we are on the verge of re-evaluating that assessment and — to the extent it is possible and driven (once again) by biological survivability — of expanding our biological-cultural constructions to admit and give meaning to some of them.

Following the reasoning I have been presenting, one can speculate that the prospects for bridging the boundaries between species (of both the known and “unknown” variety) as well as between our physical reality and other possible “non-physical” ones are good if  we can find a way to look at that physical/biological (Newtonian- Cartesian) level from a deeper grounding in spiritual (or  transpersonal) reality. In fact, the evidence from LSD research, some spiritual literature, and various aspects of “new age” phenomena that are washing up on the shore of a variety of disciplines is exactly to that effect.

Indeed, wonder of wonders, finally in our evolution — in this very time of ours — there may be more people who are focusing on those keys to possible biological transcendence than ever before. Additionally, these researchers and seekers are scientifically, empirically, and experientially researching, eliciting, and perceiving many such incorrigible and “useless” phenomena and events. Most importantly of all, they are finding that these events can be intersubjectively validated — can be intertemporally and, indeed, empirically confirmed, demonstrated, and/or significantly…

PRIMITIVE PHILOSOPHY

Page 57

And in their hearts,
What did they feel? 
Did they think they had the right to steal 
Another man’s land 
Who had no name. 
Oh, they didn’t think he’d feel the pain. . . . 

(from “Portfolio,” Steeleye Span, 1988) 

This Radical Reversal, This Primal Return 

In the wake of this new realization a new humility is necessarily born. Both of these are nurtured further by the Westerner’s own sciences — which have overturned his cherished premises, requiring visions of the truth quite at odds with what was used to get him to this pass, and, coincidentally enough, quite akin to that which had been thrown away, beat back, persecuted, and even killed in its embodiment earlier.

This radical reversal, this mushroom-like returning to our roots, reappraisal of our origins and foundations, may be the thing momentous enough and radical enough to save us, to abort our countdown to extermination.

The New Evidence and the New Researchers

For unless we do this, unless we keep in mind the limitations of our reality constructions — including our “scientific” ones — we have absolutely no way of understanding certain incorrigible and “biologically useless” facts that intrude upon our “real world” and that are scared into the light of our biological parameters by our scientific rummaging through the bushes. These “useless” side effects of our scientific enterprise may indeed contain the keys to our venturing forth, to at least some small degree, beyond the biological real-world confines of our predecessors. For just as we have seen that standing on a deeper, more encompassing paradigm than the cultural makes transcultural discourse and understanding possible, so also standing on one deeper than the biological may bring trans-biological understanding closer.

Following the reasoning I have been presenting, one can speculate that the prospects for bridging the boundaries between species (of both the known and “unknown” variety) as well as between our physical reality and other possible “non-physical” ones are good if  we can find a way to look at that physical/biological (Newtonian- Cartesian) level from a deeper grounding in spiritual (or  transpersonal) reality.

EXPERIENCE IS DIVINITY

Page 56

Most men they don’t need it,
White man he kills for it.
They took to the seas,
Searching for a land
That they could call paradise,
Stealing the breeze that carried them toward the sun.
With lust in their eyes,
They found a land,
And said “We found paradise,
Think of the Lord, and look at the prize we’ve won.”
We know who they were,
They were the ones who killed their brothers to steal from others.
We know who they were,
They were the ones whose sons and daughters are doing it still. . . .
And in their hearts,
What did they feel?
Did they think they had the right to steal
Another man’s land
Who had no name
Oh, they didn’t think he’d feel the pain.
So they sailed away from their own country
To another man’s land far across the sea.
And they stole that land from the people there, And they called that
land Australia.
Why did he do it, white man. . . .
They sailed away, one winter’s day,
To a sunlit land that was far away,
And they stole that land from the people there,
And they called that land America.
Why did he do it, white man. . . .

TRANSCENDING WORLDS

…minute and attempt to view all other species as simply other problem-solving beings who, as measured by their success, were employing either better or worse paradigms (that is to say, including more or less experiential “facts”), we might say that this is one way of appreciating the force behind continual evolution for all species.

So science has a claim to validity in relation to our species’s biological survivability. But as emphasized earlier it has no claim in relation to anything other than that. Its truth is but a limited one. Its truth is relative to a biological context, a specific one, that of Homo sapiens.

A Challenge to Know More

Indeed, this fact of limitation needs to be emphasized more heartily in science today. Anthropological thinking has created a legacy where we have been made fully aware of the relativity of culture and the limitations of culturally constituted facts — those “institutional facts” referred to earlier. It seems an equal and parallel effort is warranted — from the ranks of ecosophists, consciousness researchers, tranpersonalists, and others in the know — to point out the limitations and relativity of our species’s biologically constituted facts — those (not so) “brute facts” of Anscombe and D’Andrade.
