I. BEING SHIVA — DESTROYING AND CREATING WORLDS Page 30 On the other hand, regarding the Experience, or Divinity, that physical reality is removed from ... and while this is not crucial to the argument being presented here, but as a look ahead ... I would say that levels of higher awareness (rather, experience), not physical or energetic complexity, create perceptible and/or conceivable levels of complexity of Experience. That is, that integration of greater and greater complexities of subjective Experience equate to greater levels of consciousness, but that levels of complexity of Experience are an inverse to levels of complexity of matter. But again, that is jumping ahead. Yes, we’ll get to that, as well. Still, I would join with deChardin in saying that, for all we know, every integrated whole is possibly some form of perceptor, some form of consciousness which is receiving information — “sensory” and otherwise — and combining and integrating it in their unique way. For example, it is not that strange to believe that each planet is a form of consciousness ... just ask astrologers ... and that they interact with each other in their own ways.

Culture is Our Template for Understanding So, you see, culture is the set of understandings and everything related to them that is shared in common by a group. It is the way a particular group sees, creates, and “furnishes” the world. It is the matrix, grid, or framework that is projected onto Reality determining what one perceives and then interprets it. It creates the understandings of our perceptions and experiences, as they are configured within the context created by that culture. It is a group’s “window” on the world; it is the template stamped upon Reality; it is the blueprint out of which our perceptions and understandings arise. Consequently, culturally constituted realities are realities or facts that are created by individual cultures and which exist only for them. They are distinct from brute facts, which can be said to be realities that exist in all cultures: Brute facts can be said to exist outside of cultures, independent of them, regardless that cultures determine the interpretation or meaning of them. Some basic culturally constituted realities are the different languages; the various religious notions with their supernatural realities and the cultural items and artifacts they impel; specific but commonly… I.

Infinite Worlds Infinite Organizations of Experience Equals Infinite Beings Then there is Teilhard deChardin — someone whom Grof cites as presenting a way of conceptualizing the beings and consciousnesses he has come across in his modalities — who advanced the notion that every integrated whole is in fact a form of beingness and that the degree of consciousness inherent in each is relative to the level of complexity of that integrated whole. For reasons that will become clearer as we proceed, I would say there is indeed reason to assert that levels of complexity relate to levels of awareness. However as for the “higher level” of consciousness being related to the level of complexity — with more complexity being of a higher consciousness than lower complexity — I would say there is evidence indicating the opposite is true. From the perspective of brain-as- reducing-valve, which I will elaborate on shortly, and the viewpoint brought forth in my books, Falls from Grace (2014a) and Experience Is Divinity (2013c), the simplest organizations, the least complex entities, are the highest orders of awareness, in that each reduction into form and the elaboration of that form is one step further removed from the consciousness of stone, the consciousness of space, of the Void ... ultimately, of Divinity. So physical reality with its myriad and ever increasing complexities and organizations of complications are steps in removal from unity with Divinity. 3. INFINITE WORLDS Page 29

I. BEING SHIVA — DESTROYING AND CREATING WORLDS Page 12 Not all social-science variables refer to culturally created things; some variables refer to objects and events that exist prior to, and independent of, their definition: for example, a person’s age, the number of calories consumed during a meal, the number of chairs in a room, or the pain someone felt. 3 D’Andrade is describing a difference ... no doubt one we all would make ... between objects in the world or seeming absolutes such as numbers and that which varies by culture — institutional facts, which are also referred to as culturally constituted facts, or realities. Simply put, culturally constituted realities, or institutional facts, are facts, things, realities that are created by culture. In the terms we used in the last chapter, culturally constituted realities are created in the cortex and they are interpretations of what has been given to the cortex of information concocted by a species biology, in interior parts of the brain, which were fed by neural firings determined by what our senses has selected out of the infinity of possibility of what can be sensed in any particular moment and environment.

Putting this rather bluntly, Stanislav Grof concurs, Authentic and convincing experiences of conscious identification with animals, plants, and even inorganic materials and processes make it easy to understand the beliefs of animistic cultures that see the entire universe as being ensouled. From their perspective, not only all the animals, but also the trees, the rivers, the mountains, the sun, the moon and the stars appear to be sentient beings. 1 Infinite Worlds Infinite Organizations of Experience Equals Infinite Beings Then there is Teilhard deChardin — someone whom Grof cites as presenting a way of conceptualizing the beings and consciousnesses he has come across in his modalities — who advanced the notion that every integrated whole is in fact a form of beingness and that the degree of consciousness inherent in each is relative to the level of complexity of that integrated whole.

If it is designed to find particles, we get particles — in supposedly the same “outside world” ... and regardless of the fact that logically light cannot be both a particle and a wave.2 That is the classic example, of course. The structure of the experiment, designed by the observer, determines what will be found. At base, intent is all- important; it leans us toward “discovering” what we are inclined to see. Now, what is this saying if not just what I have stated in Chapter 1? Is this not the same as saying that we determine ultimately, because of our specific biology, what we sense? That we therein determine the “world” we experience? Culture, Brute Facts, and Culturally Constituted Realities Nevertheless, to some extent our social scientists have yet to get that memo from the hard sciences. For example, in line with Elizabeth Anscombe’s (1958) terminology of brute facts, John Searle (1969) claims a distinction between “brute facts” and “institutional facts.” Anthropologist Roy D’Andrade (1984) elaborates on this and goes on to explain what is meant by brute facts: 2.

Remember, also, that the majority of humans that have ever lived, which includes many living now, think of, nay they even have direct experience of, Nature and its aspects as being living and to constitute a living, perceiving being. And they deem that Nature to be even higher, far higher in fact, in its apprehension and consciousness than us. I want to point out that as odd or fantastical as this sounds, this is exactly the notion coming out of some of the consciousness research of the last fifty years. Stanislav Grof, for one, has found that in his modes of LSD psychotherapy, as well as his non-drug modality, holotropic breathwork, people are able to identify with and experience the consciousnesses not only of other planetmates — that is, other species on Earth — but also are able to merge with and experience the consciousnesses of higher orders of beings: the Earth, individual planets, the galaxy, particular collections of people — such as the women of all time (note here that the entities do not even have to be alive in this time and place for them to be part of a collective consciousness ... the relativity of space and time, remember?); and even collectives of supranormal beings and realities — archetypal consciousness and its reality, for example. And it is possible to experience consciousness of supposedly inanimate, non-living forms… I. BEING SHIVA — DESTROYING AND CREATING WORLDS Page 28

2. DESTROYING WORLDS Page 11 …“feedback” or “alternative”-enough perspectives to allow us a glimpse of what is, for truth, really real? Let us just look at what modern science tells us about the observations it makes on the world. According to Gary Zukav (1979), the author of a widely read overview of the new physics, a major underpinning of modern physics is the realization and discovery that science cannot predict anything, as had been taken for granted, with absolute certainty. Relatedly, the new physics informs us that there is simply no way to separate the observed event from the observer. That is to say that the observer is, her- or himself, an inexcludable variable and always affects the results of an experiment. In a very fundamental way, the perceiver influences what is seen in even the most “scientifically” pure observations and experiments: “The new physics ... tells us clearly that it is not possible to observe reality without changing it.” 1 Zukav (1979) takes, as an example, that a condition is set up to perceive an event: If it is designed to find waves in light, it discovers waves. If it is designed to find particles, we get particles — in supposedly the same “outside world” ... and regardless of the fact that logically light cannot be both a particle and a wave.2

I. BEING SHIVA — DESTROYING AND CREATING WORLDS Page 28 ... and here we get into realities we are not capable of knowing exist. You say they are not perceivers, however, so they cannot create their own realities out of their perceptions. Good one, on that. But how do you know that is true? As one example, is there not serious consideration to the idea that the Earth itself is a seeing, feeling, perceiving being? A Gaia? How can you say it is not? Would it not fit into the category of possible beings that we are not capable of seeing with our percepters? Like I said, earthworms might perceive humans as an obstacle or hot and coldness. So might we not be in the same position relative to these greater beings (or at least, different beings)? So that we as humans are perceiving a planet which is in actuality a form of consciousness (an experiential vantage point, a perceiver), but we mistakenly and “brutely” conceive of it as being lifeless ... an Earth that is mere matter and stuff, not conscious or perceiving? Remember, also, that the majority of humans that have ever lived, which includes many living now, think of, nay they even have direct experience of, Nature and its aspects as being living and to constitute a living, perceiving being.

There are realities constituted by the fact that the perceiver is from the vegetable kingdom — you might call them vegetablely-constituted realities, or from the animal kingdom, planetmatedy-constituted realities, or by virtue of being mammalian (you’ve got it from here), or out of the fact of belonging to one of the many taxonomies or other biological categories of species, or from the fact that all exist on something that they perceive to be Earth ... and so on. For all I know there are realities that are shared by all “elements” or “members” (whatever they might be) in our solar system, but none other (heliocentrically-constituted realities?), or by “members” (whatever they might be) of our galaxy of the Milky Way, but are not seen at all or are able to be perceived in other galaxies, other dimensions, or other.... 3.

We’re not done yet. Suprahumanly Constituted Realities Okay, then, let us look at the antipode of that end point, newly seen to be individually constituted realities. On the other end of the continuum, the one we were indicating as biologically constituted realities, we can see that it extends beyond where we thought it ended as well. How, you say? Well, as I said, biologically constituted realities are those realities shared by a species, some of which are shared only by that species and some are shared to varying degrees, but not to every other species. Well, the category, species, also, is not absolute. (I see, a couple of you already were thinking this. Good for you!) There are certainly realities that are unique to entire groups of species that have important qualities in common. We see that the categorization of species itself is not absolute. For we can easily draw a line around groups of species and create other entities, which for all we know create their own “constituted” realities.

There Are an Infinite Number of Worlds It should be supremely clear by now, especially among those of us with a transcultural or anthropological familiarity — wherein we are made distinctly aware of the truth-shrouding nature of ethnocentrism — that any serious attempt at discerning truth is not compatible with any variety of self-serving or egocentric agenda, regardless how invisible it might be to us or how unconscious it might be held. And anthropocentrism — the idea that our species, alone, has the inside track, superior to all creation, on perceiving Reality — is such a self- aggrandizing notion. Thus, it is just as essential to throw off the overweening species- centric intellectual baggage of our Judeo-Christian tradition ... which posits “man” as the ruler over nature and as the summit of created species ... as it is essential to strive to drop our ethnocentric blinders. Indeed, making this attempt to view from a neutral, Archimedean, non-anthropocentric “window,” it follows logically that the probabilities are enormous that there are, in fact, other beings, unperceivable entities, unknown and unimaginable realities, and other and different senses ... and, yes, as one new physics proposition puts it, an infinite number of “worlds.” 1.

Culture is collective psychology, in a sense. It is the obverse of Jung’s collective unconscious, for it is what is known in a culture, not unknown or unconscious. It could be said that culture is the collective consciousness, viewed in its widest possible way and including all possible elements of a culture, of a group. Following that? Okay, then, we can see that this end of the continuum, which we were calling culturally constituted realities, really goes further out from its supposed end point to individually constituted realities. These are realities that are unique to an individual and can only be understood within the context of that individual, and when encountered outside of that individual they are likely to be either misunderstood or not seen at all. For those of you following this, we can see that such personal “cultures,” if you will, comprised of individually constructed realities, are different, individual to individual, and that some of those cultural elements are shared widely, while some of those individuals have personal cultures with elements that are so unique and unshared that we have a special term for those individuals. Of course you know this one. For what if I were to put it another way… I. BEING SHIVA — DESTROYING AND CREATING WORLDS Page 26

We have no way of knowing even whether or not we are in the same “space” at the same “time” ... the quotation marks because space and time are sensorally determined in our species’ unique biological way ... as other unperceivable beings, even sentient ones — though with what senses, again, we do not know.

I. BEING SHIVA — DESTROYING AND CREATING WORLDS Page 26 So who is still with me? Well, if you followed all that, you would see that such groups can be continually broken down ... can be infinitely broken down, you will soon see ... into even smaller subgroups. Neighborhoods can be broken down into separate family cultures, for example. And where from there? Well, we see that, yes, it is true, each and every individual can her- or himself be considered a culture, in that there are understandings, procedures, ways of thinking, and all the rest that are not held in common with anyone else at all but are unique to each individual. That is often referred to as personality, a person’s unique personality, but it goes beyond that to unique facts of each individual that are not even, by other individuals, observable! The difference between individual culture and personality is a matter of emphasis in that individual culture pertains to patterns, realities, facts, and ways of looking at or construing the world primarily from the perspective of the individual, whereas personality usually applies to those things as observed, to the extent they are observed, and referred to by others. Nevertheless, one might say culture, as it pertains to groups and societies, reduced to its foundation, is simply another way of referring to individual psychologies, or personalities, but doing it cumulatively. Culture is collective psychology, in a sense.

Individually Constituted Realities If not, follow this: Do you see that even the term culture is not a category with clear boundaries and that it might pertain to a huge group of individuals, whereas subgroups of that would constitute separate cultures, each slightly different from the rest, so they are themselves considered cultures. These subgroups are sometimes called subcultures. But even they have subgroups and subcultures within them. For a culture is a particular set of understandings or ways of seeing that is held in common by a group. And every group, in that sense, can be considered a culture for, indeed, that is how we define a group: It is a number of people that share a common understanding or way of seeing things, and that might simply be in its intent. But also it usually includes its goals, procedures, and more: special language, sometimes called jargon; group constructions — physical and organizational ones as well as temporal ones, i.e., events; as well as ways of behavior, manners of speaking, rules of courtesy, and the like. 3.

Furthermore, keeping in mind that earthworm, we can assume, for the sake of argument, that it perceives a Homo sapiens as something earthwormo-centrically akin to pressure, an obstacle, or earthwormo- molecular vibrations, in other words, earthworm hot-or-coldness. That is how it might perceive us. Are there any among my readers who believe it would perceive us the way we do? I doubt it. Now, understanding that our senses are not omniscient either — they are limited — how would we perceive beings or entities that are outside of or not sufficiently perceived by our limited senses? Indeed, how would we even know of the existence of such other sentient beings — not to mention other even more unimaginable realities — who or which could hypothetically be outside of the range and/or number of our biologically unique senses?
