I think I miscommunicated when I said subjective framework. What I meant by that was the individual's framework for understanding objective reality.
Discussion
Okay, but still. If a given “individual’s framework for understanding objective reality” is different than another’s, then we are still back to my point that one individual’s (e.g. and Hindu’s or Ancient Greek’s) framework differs materially from another’s. Hence, not True always-and-everywhere. My main point is that what you call objective reality is only understood and communicated through concepts and that it is only when these concepts are DROPPED that we get to anything real and True. This is what #mediation points to, at least. All frameworks are just stories, ideas, thoughts… opinions.
Again, I don’t mean to offend. You are free to pray however you like. But, a survey of religions and myths over the millennia demonstrate that the only thing more abundant than our creativity about divinity is our certainty that *our* interpretation is more right than the next tribe’s. In the end, any god you worship is just another story. Your god may be a merciful one or a wrathful one. It may be personified by a man, a woman, or a monkey. It may contain lessons, dogmas, or rituals that are more (or less) beneficial to human flourishing. But, it’s just a story. The Truth is none of it correct, none of it is important, and none of it matters. This is not nihilism. It’s just the truth. Objectively.
You mentioned that you are interested in Taoism. So, let’s look at the Wu Wei, for example.
“Why are you unhappy?
Because 99% of everything you think, and everything you do, is for your self….
…and there isn’t one.”
Then you disagree with me on what meaning is and how frameworks should be interpreted on a meta level. Meditation does give you direct access to truth, but as soon as names and statements are introduced, as soon as a framework is prescribed, this framework, according to you, is a phony approximation, whereas according to me it is either that or can be understood as really true within the bounds within which the framework applies, is true, and has its meaning.
Meaning itself is dependent on context, truth is a distinct concept from meaning. No one mind understands everything, which is what your suggestion about frameworks seems to imply you are seeking, a mind that understands everything. I alternatively treat meaning for how it best operates in the world within my limitations as a mind within it. However your suggestion of meditation invites every mind to discover raw truth without being beholden to frameworks that might be wrong, as individuals, which is a much nicer solution than the idea of discovering a set of truth claims that are true and have meaning to all different people.
