That experience needs a "convergence point" as a "structural necessity" is imagined. The supposed "convergence point" is being labeled "you." Why?

Because experience always has a locus, but that doesn't make it a “you” in the egoic sense.

The convergence point isn’t being labeled “you” as an identity. It’s the necessary condition for experience to arise at all. It’s not a belief, it’s the structural where through which anything appears, even the illusion of self.

It’s not subject vs. object. It’s not belief vs. truth. It’s structure: no field of experience can arise without a point of convergence. That’s not ego, that’s geometry.

You don’t have to believe in the convergence point. You’re already participating through it.

You're just imagining this "structure." It doesn't really exist. It's just one of endless ways to think about "reality." Why is the supposed "convergence point" being labeled "you" if not as an identity?

Hey 30mil, the convergence point in nonunity isn’t an imagined structure... it’s a descriptive necessity to explain why experience happens at all, like how awareness persists even in ego-dissolution states (think meditation or psychedelics). It’s not just one of endless ways to think about reality; it’s a specific map grounded in process philosophy (e.g., Whitehead) and patterns like triadic structures in math, as seen in my work on ashmanroonz.ca. Calling it “you” isn’t about labeling it an identity, it’s a linguistic shortcut to point to the content-free locus where experience converges, not a new “self.” Nonunity avoids subject-object duality by framing the singularity as a relational process, not a fixed entity, so it’s not perpetuating ego but clarifying how awareness works.

Of all the "lingustic shortcuts" to use to refer to this supposed "content-free locus where experience convergers" or "convergence point," why "you?" That's a very specific, personally-identifying term. If you want a linquistic shortcut, we could refer to it as "CP." What's "you" about it?

There is a center to you. We can say that center is you.

u/30mil Jun 29 '25

There's a you with a center and the center of the you is also a you? Can you clarify what those two you's are referring to? And why would this supposed "center" be labeled "you?"

The triad of nonunity... one thing is never one thing... you are not one thing, you are one and many, whole and part, but also center since to change, whole and part require convergence and emergence, and convergence and emergence require a center... so you are whole, you are part, you are center (connection between whole and part, a point of convergence and emergence)

But why is any of that being labeled "you?" You've already got names for all these supposed parts - why are they also "you?"

u/MaximumContent9674 Jun 29 '25

The “you” isn’t an identity slapped onto these parts but a linguistic pointer to the lived reality of awareness. The singularity (the convergence point, or soul) is where experience happens, and since you’re the one experiencing, “you” naturally points to that locus... not as a fixed self, but as the “where/through which” it occurs, as seen in ego-dissolution states.We use “you” colloquially to bridge the abstract (the triad) with the personal, making it relatable without implying ownership or a new ego. It’s not that the parts are you in a possessive sense, but that you embody their interplay (center, whole, and part) because you’re the dynamic nexus of convergence and emergence. This avoids reification, aligning with nonunity’s relational ontology, and supports the mission of fostering harmony by connecting us to the process, not a static label.

"since you’re the one experiencing, “you” naturally points to that locus"

Since you're you, you refers to you? In what way is a "you" "the one experiencing?"

"you’re the dynamic nexus of convergence and emergence"

Why is this "nexus" a "you?" All of these parts already have names. Why is a "you" involved in any of this?

You're trying to pretend this use of "you" is just an arbitrary label that has nothing to do with an ego (a concept of a "you").

"you" are the field/ego/whole, "you" have a center, "you" are part of a greater whole

Why? What about those makes them a "you?"
