A Visual Expression of Dualism

Z = Z² + c

The above mathematical equation is called the Mandlebrot Set. It is an expression of the Fundamental Process (consciousness coming back onto itself to reaffirm it's own existence) that is as beautiful as it is revealing.

What the equation does is it plots the movement of a single pixel on the screen. There are two possible outcomes for each pixel that is put through the process. Either it will move to the center of the screen or it will move off to infinity.

The equation works via a process called “iteration”, which is the using of the output of the initial cycle as the input of the next cycle, then using that output as the next input, and so on. After the initial value has been input, the set is a Self-referring system.

It just so happens that if the initial input value (c) is greater than 2, this will result in the pixel moving off to infinity. If the initial input value is less than 2, the pixel will move to the center of the screen.

This is an exact expression of the cycle of duality. If the singular initial “I” consciousness (c < 2) does not expand into the dualistic “I...”, it will remain as a part of the set and move to the center. If consciousness expands into the dualistic “I...” thought (c > 2) it will leave the set and shoot off into infinity.

What should be noted is that the colored region is the pixels that have left the set. The black region is the pixels that have remained within the set. The colored region that can be described is the Fundamental Process that has expanded to the level of dualism. The black region that defies description is the Fundamental Process that has remained in unification.

And isn't it so that there is such beauty arising from the process “going out”? Life, in all of its vast array of experiences, when simply witnessed, is a beautiful display of form and color. There is no right or wrong, no state or experience that is better than another. There is simply the process of Life.

The Mandlebrot set equation is capable of infinite complexity. As one zooms in, the set reveals more and more detail. This process can go on indefinitely. The only prerequisite to revealing more of the set's potential is more computing power. The faster the equation is iterated, the greater the resolution and detail generated. Reality operates in the same manner.

The Fundamental Process is consciousness coming back onto itself to experience itself. Dualism is that part of consciousness that desires continuation of this experience. Biological evolution is consciousness developing higher and higher computing power so that it can experience itself at continually deeper and deeper levels. Our human brain, perhaps the most complex structure in the universe, is capable of experiencing the infinite potential of the Fundamental Process to an incredible degree.

There is a point where You will grow tired of infinity. Herein is the reason why You are reading this. You, who are getting glimpses of the Indescribable, are aware of the border of infinity and unity. You are playing with the idea of remaining in unification, but have yet to pull attention fully away from the show.
