Twenty-four models of reality, arranged by how far each one sets the perceiver apart from the perceived. Step from eliminative materialism to Kashmir Shaivism and watch the gulf between you and a clay pot close. Then read the same idea in six vocabularies, and ride the site's ideas as a transit map.
From matter as primary to awareness as primary, in the essay's ten stages.
All ten stages at once, each model in its own one-line summary from the essay. Select any model to jump to it.
The site keeps saying one thing in several languages. Each row is one idea; each column is a tradition's word for it, as the site reads that tradition. Select a row to read across it. A dash means the site draws no parallel there.Pick an idea to read it in six vocabularies, each as the site reads that tradition.
A guided reading path through the site, drawn as a transit map. The loop is the site's core story: awareness hides from itself and finds itself again. Three more lines join it. Select any station, or pick a line and ride it stop by stop.
