Dear Daniel: I think infinite possibilities lie in the law of Cause and Effect. Everything that we perceive with our physical senses is an effect. Cause is always invisible. When we take the cause of things back far enough it becomes unexplainable and invisible. Ultimate Cause is invisible, although we can observe it's presence in the effects. Another way of interpreting the Hermetic Principle, "As above, so below. As below, so above", in the Law of Cause and Effect, is that every Cause has an Effect and every Effect has a Cause. Infinite possibilities lie within this law. It is possible to change the effects, by identifying with Cause. Herein lies infinite possibilities within a fixed law.

Given these laws are absolute and fixed and within the physical world, there is a tangible (if almost infinitely massive) amount of space in which things attached to said universal laws can happen. Dear Mark, I would like to bring up two thoughts related to the issue. First, regarding the claim that there is a tangible amount of space in which nature can take its course; is not the physical realm as infinite as the astra-mental realms? Even modern science seems to confirm this thought. If it is indeed so, then even if there was a fixed number of absolute universal Laws which work like mathematical functions (producing a *single* output for every possible input), there would still be a genuinly infinite amount of physical space for them to manifest in. Second, regarding absolute Laws. Let's take the Law of Cause and Effect, for example. I think it was David Hume who postulated that there is no logical connection between causes and their effects. Proceeding from this thought, I, personally, believe that different effects might rise from exactly the same causes. To me, the Law of Cause and Effect is responsible for teaching, for allowing us to learn from the results of our actions. Given a specific constant environment and specific cause, an infinite amount of possibilites of effects arise, an infinite amount of ways to express and teach the lesson needed. All these possibilities are simultaneously included in the All, and yet, given the sequential nature of human perception, we seemingly experience the lesson in only one of the possible ways. The two above thoughts, if correct of course, already give us an infinite amount of space in which an infinte amount of events happen. :) Hoping to be clear enough to be of any help, Daniel To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: BardonPraxis-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com Your use of Yahoo!
