 Coming Apart at the "Seems"

Reality is coming apart at the "seems" as we lose belief in what is apparent to the eye. "What the Bleep Do We Know?" asked us to question the ways we decide what is real.
If we begin to question what we sense, what means are left to gather/judge information about our experiences?
The scientific/logical method has great appeal for me, and yet falls short in so many instances. When managing facts, the scientific method is highly effective. Perhaps if life were more purely factual, I would devote myself to science.
Perhaps all that is left is to "live the questions"?

Ineffable spirit!
One thing that I found very hard to come to terms with was externalizing all input. Ultimately it gave me much more control but reinforced a.. mental attitude I used to avoid.
Do you really need your senses to exist? Not anymore, not that you've already sensed something. You would question this if all your senses ceased existing, but only you would question it.
Basically, you need to combine pure input with knowledge/intuition. If you want to develop a non-physical sense, build off of previous ones, ultimately coming down to what you learned from physical senses.
Anyway, I just don't see where the problem is here? Use rigorous criteria of your own design.

Falling apart at the seems,
but not as it seems to be....................
The less you fight the possibilities, the more you will understand....
The more you are open to understanding, questioning, and learning, the more you will "know" and "grow"....
As I learned from many (Skorpivo), sometimes it is best to let it "flow".... (I liked that BLEEPING movie  )
