As we attempt to deal with what is natural, we must discover the nature of reality itself. I will be posting several times as to form an idea of what reality truly is. However it will just come out as leaves flow down a stream to the observer who cannot predict what sequence of leaves will be coming next. All material objects can be defined by the parts that compose the whole. If something is to be defined as whole it is enherently dependent upon the parts in which make it appear whole. Is the person, place, or object truly an objective whole piece. No, naturally it is the arrangement of certain parts that make it appear whole. Even the purpose of the apparently whole state, is somewhat subjective. A table for instance can be used to put things on, sit on, firewood, decoration and so on. Lets say that you have switched physical reality with a termite, the table's purpose is now food. We can almost suppose that the person, place, or object can have an infinite number of purposes that are dependant upon the arrangement of certain causes, conditions, and physical realities. Also the parts that make up the object also depend upon even smaller parts, which is made up of smaller parts and so on which each have an infinite number of purposes dependent upon the arrangement of certain causes, conditions, and physcial realities. In fact, all things come into exsitent upon infinite causes, conditions, and physical realities. So nothing is independant of one another, therefore nothing contains an independent exsistence of itself. Your thoughts are dependent upon experiances which are dependant upon people, places, and objects which as we discussed previously have independant exsistence of themselves! So if everything is dependant upon everything else then what is reality dependant upon?
