what is the progress I am talking about. how does it march. what are the priorities in this journey. where am I going with all of this. why do I do the things I do. what is the value of what I am doing. what is the quality of what I am sticking with. what does quality even mean. how does it generate the nature it is endowed with. these questions attack me while I am on a space of imaginative exploration. how does it all come about. where do these things take me in a broader span of vision. I know these things come after me. what am I doing to tackle these questions. meta questions all the way down. but that will get me in an infinite regress from where I have nowhere to go. there is no point falling into the trap of infinite regress. rather see the limitations. approach accordingly. infinite regress is a gateway to unnecessary nihilism. what’s the point. I have to somehow see the spot where my limitations are. anything beyond that could possible exist my own limitations are just some thoughts of fancy. pure speculation.

I think about knowledge creation, ideas on evolution, computation and emergence in nature. View more posts
