Alan Watts Mysticism
"Human consciousness is somewhat linear. Looks at things one by one. Education for example does not come easy. We have to scan miles of lines on a computer screen or in a book, to comprehend aspects of nature.
The universe does not come at us in lines. It comes at us in a multidimensional continuum. In which everything is happening everywhere, all at the same time. And it comes at much too quickly, to be translated into lines of print. And that is our limitation as far as intellectual or scientific life is concerned.
The computer will greatly speed up linear scanning. But it's still linear scanning. And so long as we are stuck with that form of wisdom, we cannot deal with more than a few variables, at once.
A variable is one linear process.
Linear consideration is a limited way of dealing with multi-dimensionality."
