DICHOTOMIES, TRIANGLES & SCALE SECTIONS
 
Keep in mind that these things seem to blend into one another. For instance "emotion" seems to begin faintly at around tone 16, which really ought to be retitled "Aesthetic Feeling". The "personal self" centered around Games/Opinions seems to begin around tone 40. So treat many of the tone positions below as only approximations, or better yet centers of focus, okay?

Native State (neither existence nor non-existence, no singularities nor dualities whatsoever)

Causal band (BE)
Goal: "Exist!"
Dichotomy: Total existence vs total non-existence
Triangle: unity - duality - diversity? (1-2-3)

(note: association)
#6 - Imaging
Goal: "Image!" or "gelling!"
Dichotomy: a stopped or frozen creation vs universes
 Between 6 and 7 lies the "Abyss" of the magicians.

THE ABYSS

Goals numbers 7, 8 and 9 are spacial.

#7 - Viewpoints 28.0 - 16.0 (not-is, not being in some locations, unattached i.e. disassociated there, while identified [theta located] in another or others.)
Goal: "Myself!" (located)
Dichotomy: Personal self vs other selves (separate viewpoint/location in space)
(note: identification in one or more locations, disassociation elsewhere)

Triangle tone scale sections:
Death -0.0

Protecting Bodies -2.2

Being Objects -10.0 (actually to -16.0)

Mystery band (NOT-DO) range of unocnsciousness (Since "DO" is the action of postulation, then the disability of theta which has become matter in the physical universe is one of  "can't postulate".)
#10 -
Being Nothing -20.0 to Total Hiding -40
Goal: no space!
Dichotomy: ?????
#11 - ??? -60.0

#12 - Surrender -80.0 (MEST is in a state of surrender?)

Please note the cycle of existence in red: the BE triangle and then its inversion. Wheels within wheels...
