Towards way-making research in philosophy (as this is a research channel towards that philosophy), this conversation is especially helpful regarding the following:

The notion of polarity as not being dualistic. Jeremy's comments are very helpful here as a way to understand how the parts of a whole come to recognize one another, doing so as though they were not part of the same whole even while always being so.

“the patterns between things are often more important than the things themselves”

“the distinction we make between science and spirituality is a false distinction”

"I come up with a way of we can use language to define spirituality from the perspective of system science.  And we can look at spirituality itself as really being like,  an approach of seeking meaning in the connections between things rather than the things themselves."

Also especially helpful is the talk about dynamic patterns and strange attractors (what Jeremy calls natural attractors).

“Anytime we make sense of something, the best thing we can do is then having made sense of it to let that go and accept the next experience that might slightly shift the way of making sense of it.”

"It is not that the self is a delusion, it is that the fixed self is a delusion."
