Reference: The Postulates: Postulate Mechanics

These postulates outline thought, awareness, identity and consciousness.

A postulate is a foundational assumption taken as true, from which everything else is derived.

Abbreviation: PS = Postulate

Postulates

PS 1: There is Unknowable.

1. Unknowable transcends the universe.
2. The Absolute is unknowable. You cannot pin it down.

PS 2: Unknowable implies that there is knowable.

1. The UNIVERSE comprises of all that is knowable.
2. The knowable is always relative. It is not absolute.

PS 3: Knowable implies that there is something substantial enough to be sensed.

1. The universe is substantial and it can be sensed.

PS 4: The attribute of being substantial enough to be sensed may be termed SUBSTANCE.

1. Matter is substance; but energy and thought are also substance.
2. The universe has substance (thought, energy and matter).

PS 5: The ability to sense may be termed AWARENESS.

1. There is awareness in the universe.

PS 6: Awareness of substance may be termed CONSCIOUSNESS.

1. Consciousness arises as awareness falls on thought, energy and matter.

PS 7: Consciousness begins with a POSTULATE.

1. A postulate is made of thought.
2. A postulate is a foundational assumption taken as true, from which considerations are derived.
3. The source of a postulate is just another postulate.

PS 8: All CONSIDERATIONS are derived from postulates.

1. Considerations are extensions of postulates.

PS 9: All postulates and considerations ideally maintain ONENESS.

1. Oneness is the sense of harmony, consistency and continuity.
2. Oneness is the basis of all logic.

PS 10: The substance of postulates and considerations is THOUGHT.

1. Thought is a substance because it is substantial enough to be sensed.

PS 11: Consciousness is the awareness of thought FORMS.

1. Postulates and considerations are forms of thought.

PS 12: Awareness is distinct from thought forms.

1. Consciousness arises from awareness of thought-forms.

PS 13: An IDENTITY lacks the distinction between awareness and thought form.

1. Awareness gets caught up in thought form when distinction disappears.
2. For example, God is a thought form that is seen as all-knowing.
3. For example, a person is a thought form that is seen as individually aware.

PS 14: An identity filters awareness while unaware of its form.

1. The identity of God filters the inherent awareness with the idea that it creates it.
2. The identity of a person filters the inherent awareness with the idea that it is individual.

PS 15: An identity becomes aware of its form, as it applies the sense of oneness.

1. Identity is a role that awareness is playing.
2. There is nothing wrong with an identity as long as there is awareness of its form.
3. Awareness of identity comes about with the sense of oneness (harmony, consistency and continuity).
