If we were in a black hole

If we were in a black hole, how would we know it? Are we perhaps in one, just slower moving than the ones our scientists have identified? And if so, if in fact time is itself compressing as we are being compressed, or if for the simple reason that all about us is compressing at the same rate as us, would we until the end have any idea of what was happening to us? Would we continue to live our lives, do our businesses, love and marry and have children, care for our elders, have controversies, go to court, and elect leaders, until the very end, unknowing?

Taking conversation to a larger scale

If we want to take conversation to a larger scale, one way would be through turning it continuous, continuity both of time and space. In time, we converse at first continually, later continuously: first three times a week, later it is the ever refreshing mist on our face from standing by the waterfall. In space, we converse with those within our ambit as we trace circles through the world of time and space; they likewise circle and converse: and in seven degrees of wheeling the whole may be infected for good.

I do not know what this means in practice; I must test it out to see. I think it means to continually open the significant conversations. I think it means to open them kindly with whomever I come across. I think it means all with an eye out for that mist on my face.

Even those who will not act

Even those who will not act can converse and thus inform the gathering for the world.
