Great video. So my take away is that language is generative symbolic encoding. Our brains compress and encode data symbolically and it represents as dreams, jungian archtypes etc. Going to the more speculative undercurrent in the conversation.; one would expect such symbolic encoding to mirror deeper similiar encoding in the universe. Thus language itself could encode reality around us, something that is applied in ritual and religion. Very speculative but fun to think about.
"It" does not come from "bit". "Bit" does not come from "It". ALL dualities are tandem systems generated directly from the process of Awareness playing with itself. Play requires a type of forgetting/ignorance. The playing of a game requires immersion in the game to such a degree that one loses awareness of everything else (the world). A child takes the perspective of a doll and that gives rise to the entire fantasy realm in which the doll operates. The player of a video game becomes so interested in the game that he temporarily loses awareness of the higher-dimensional realm and the body. An actor and the audience have the unwritten understanding that the "bigger" experience of the entire waking state will be suspended while everyone plays make-believe.
There's a singular ____________ that I'm going to call "Awareness". Awareness can just BE (aware) or it can be aware of itself. The irony of the situation is that the episodes when Awareness is aware of itself, is when it's engaged in the play. So "Awareness of itself" = playing with itself, which equals forgetting itself. So THIS is a Divine game of hide-and-seek with itself. Awareness (aka: "God") has designed a game to play, basically for shits-and-giggles. Labyrinths, mysteries and puzzles are all fractal expressions of this game. The purpose of the game is for entertainment and the goal of the game is to find conclusion of the game; to escape the maze, to discover the mystery, to solve the puzzle (it’s not “mystery all the way”).
When one looks into a mirror they can say: "That's me" while simultaneously possessing the inherent intuition: "I am not that." When God engages in the game, It is pretending that the image in the mirror IS Self. It takes Self to be the reflection. But the inherent intuition "I am not that" remains constant, it's just suspended in order to play. This sets up the condition where Source/Reality is known but forgotten. The entire condition of humanity is that nagging feeling that you've forgotten something important but you don't know what that something is. This just happens to be the most/only important thing. So the state of taking Self to be the reflection while superconsciously, constantly feeling "I am not that" produces the appearance of duality. Having lost connection with Source/Reality, the ego (the player of the game) attempts to artificially bootstrap Source/Reality from the perspective of the mirror. This results in the projection of another mirror. So now there's a mirror facing a mirror, which projects an infinity of relative worlds (and entanglement), but they're not relative to each other, they are both relative to the real Self that's playing the game. So it appears as though there's a causal relationship between the two mirror images (the dualities) but there actually isn't. What "it from bit" is, and indeed all dualistic models are, is this attempt to manufacture Source/Reality from the perspective of the mirrors alone. This is "turtles all the way." My triune Fundamental Model Of Reality (FMOR) is this thought experiment expressed through language. I believe the FMOR is a MESSAGE implanted within the algorithm that allows Self to play with itself, that uses language in such a way as to try to break the spell that language itself has us in. It's circuit-breaker that interrupts the functioning of the algo just enough as to reveal the real Self that is looking into the mirrors. I would strongly caution ya'll to not get into the weeds here. It matters far less HOW this all works than it matters WHY it is. Whether language is one of the mirrors or whether it is that which projects the illusion of causation between the mirrors, is irrelevant. What matters is the recognition that human consciousness is helplessly lost within the infinity of mirror-realms produced by the ego trying to bootstrap Reality from the illusions. The purpose of the words is to grab attention and hold it. It wants you to keep generating thoughts so that you won't look for the Real Self that is looking into the mirrors.
Realization/remembrance of the Reality/Self that is looking into the mirrors naturally happens when attention is shifted away from the mirrors. You must find the silence between the thoughts. You must observe the state from which all senses and thoughts emerge. It's just meditation.
Stop playing around. You're here investigating this so you must want to stop playing around, right?
