Religion and sprituality

the path

The Holy Trinity, Trimurti

It's all metaphors, stupid. 

Father, Son and the Holy Ghost. Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva. Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen. Creation, maintaining, destruction. Marx's cycles of "creative destruction", and so forth.

It's really the modernist perception of linear time and the Cartesian separation of domains of knowledge that gets in the way of holistic Verstehen.
