Individuals possessing features approximating the human average manifest some of Christ's Divine Beauty, and that is why all us mortals who deviate from the average are moved to adore these paragons of pulchritude. Unhappily, the instinct to deify the norm has the necessary consequence of abhorring deviation as the very devil.
The great truth revealed by this photographic demonstration is not that good looks are as good as God; the image of the Perfect Human Being is composed of every one of the ugliest and most deviant among us, as well as the most beautiful freaks. Beauty without ugliness is less than the whole platonic Human Being, and anything less than perfect is diabolical to the degree that wholeness is lacking.

A special kind of holographic portrait of the Christ can be produced by superimposing an indefinite number of life-size photographs of people. This technical photography has actually been done. In this process, the superimposed waves do not produce a vortex; instead, the wave interference pattern is manifest like the superimposition of musical notes to produce a predominant key tone. The image resulting from this extraordinary holographic process reveals an ineffably beautiful human body of exquisitely perfect proportions. Christ is quite simply the One Perfect Human Being from Whom all mortals are imperfectly projected.

Christ is the God of Man, variously called The Son of God and The Son of Man. The epithets of Christ mean that He is the platonic Ideal of the human species, and each of us is a unique manifestation of this Universal Ideal Human Being.

The joys of youth, and its bellicosity, are the intense excitement produced by the perception of differences. Conversely, most of the normal depression which grows with age is the result of losing discrimination so that nothing new is perceived under the Sun. The conventional wisdom believes that the senses atrophy along with the thymus gland, the gonads, and the digestive organs, to produce ennui from lack of excitement. Actually, the sense organs atrophy as interest in differences is lost because of terminal classificationosis. Your tour of duty on this planet is done when you no longer find any difference between one day and the next, one season and the next, one person and another, one sex and the other. VIVE LES DIFFERENCES!

Childish minds that grow big without growing up make a profession of details without being able to realize their meaning in a universal gestalt; they are favoured to become scholars and authorities. Swelled heads are illustrated by the learned philosophers who argued about Adam's navel while remaining incapable of questioning Adam's rib. But however narrow their perspective, scholars are broadminded enough to realize that it does not profiteth a man in this life to gain the whole world in one vision.

Children notice microscopic differences; they inspect details minutely, and object to the slightest change in their environment --- especially food. Children lose their preternatural discrimination of tangible reality as they learn to speak, and everyone spends the rest of his life trying to find the original reality of the child, by way of sensory excitement, philosophizing, religious disciplines, and chemical keys to the Kingdom.

All colours are perceived colours. Colour is an interpretation made by the mind, and different people will perceive colour differently. For example, men and women tend to perceive colours differently. A man might see red or yellow where a woman would see orange or green, that's a fact.

Plato wrote the original hyperspacial theory explaining that each of the material bodies in this world is a manifestation of an Ideal Form in Heaven. In modern mathematical terms, Plato can be paraphrased to say that each individual structure is a unique cross- section (or projection) of an entity existing in a space of more than three dimensions, intersecting with our tridimensional world. Plato conceived his concept of Universal Form by the mental process of verbal abstraction, and then with true philosophic backasswardness he declared that the particular is derived from the abstract, instead of the other way 'round; nevertheless, Plato is right.
Since Plato explained that all individual differences are unique aspects of the ideal, and since wave interference is proven to be the physical mechanism that subsumes differences within the gestalt, the technical means for revealing a tangible manifestation of the Ideal Form is self-evident. By superimposing an indefinitely large number of individual images of the same class of tangible manifestations, the individual wave-forms arrange themselves according to the principle of the Conservation of Energy into a single, harmonically integrated structure. Photographers will recognize this process as the way to make a hologram. A hologram, therefore, is a tangible hyperspacial structure. How 'bout that, Dr. Gamow?

FUSING disparate images depends upon the development of a faculty for ignoring differences. The mind learns to ignore differences by subsuming them to a common feature, such as association of time, place, utility, or physical property. The subsumption of ideas into abstract classifications is produced by wave interference; and so, particular, individual differences are repressed to the Unconscious as the mind grows from perceptions limited to tangible sense data to comprehend abstract concepts.

The limits of identity provide a universally practical principle for getting what you want out of life -- especially if you have to get what you want out of other people. To wit, it is impossible to change anyone's mind except by nicely graduated argument that slowly turns the other's point of view to your direction; if you argue too strongly, you only provoke rage, denial, and repression of everything you say. The TAO teaches that the battle does not go to the strong, nor the race to the swift, but to the gentle and the patient; this is the true meaning of Jesus' promise that the meek will inherit the Earth. Beggars, flatterers, and cheaters take more than workers, racers, and robbers.

The science of physics is actually the physics of perception. Your mind is a house of many mansions. Most people never see the doors in the walls of their nurseries; they spend their entire spiritual lives confined in the crib where they were born, while they can only wonder about the sounds of family activity that transpire dimly into their windowless compartments. In these posts, you will read the construction plans of your spiritual palace. Once you realize that the barriers limiting your experience are merely partitions, you will open the doors of your mind to explore the manifold halls of self-knowledge. You may even leave your father's house to make your way as a grown person in the big hyperworld outside. Of course, it is dangerous out there, and not all who venture return sound and successful, but that is what real life is all about when play school is left behind. The physics of consciousness is what this thread is all about.

At least four dimensions of space are required to fuse several three-dimensional structures into a single identity in the same place at the same time. The most highly respected scientific authorities aver that it is impossible for any human intellect to visualize space extending in more than three dimensions. Nevertheless, your mind reveals the mathematical parameters of four-dimensional hyperspace every time you fuse more than one three-dimensional image into a gestalt. Look at that, would you; like the atom, the inner space of your mind is hyper! Hyperspace is as familiar to you as your own mental concepts. How 'bout that, Dr. Einstein?
