Shree: Logical

thinking happens in the web of vibrations - as motion. this motion starts with subtle vibrations common to all, moving to forces common to some limited forms and moving to body specific to only one form. as we become more specific in forms/ visibility, we perceive "many other" forms and forces different from us. hence if you see, being specific means getting excluded from a larger fabric of reality; encountering more movement and feeling a lot of turmoil and the urge to act and guard one's separation. reversely, the more one feels a connect with a universal Truth, one's actions with reference to specific identity no longer exists and there is no specific purpose or motive for "an action". hence one becomes "unconditional" as one connects with cosmos. therefore all words mean differently as the quality of our connection gets altered. "action" as a concept means different for an individual as compared to universal Truth. Seers suggest that all of Existence is "Divine Action".

in the same way, therefore, a "form" or a "web" or "motion" or "existence" means different for an individual as compared to the One.

currently for "us" forms are real enough to affect us deeply and we are always urged to respond. but for the One, perhaps forms do not appear or become irrelevant to even consider or materialize or manifest.

our current "thinking" is trapped in the concept of being an individual, so it will only go to some extent and not beyond. therefore, what is "seen or perceived" as forms and the decisions we take are all shortsighted and illogical, no matter how much ever we may think they were done correctly. in the same way, if "thinking" is to be deployed for the right purpose, then it is to transform the nature of thinking itself from individual to universal. this is a conscious effort of merging the self with the One and this will have to be done irrespective of the time or space or relationships or situations befalling the person.

hence the body or mind is not "absolutely real" - it is a construct that makes such entities appear, change and go.

architecturally, phenomenological ideas suggest that if a profound spatial experience is created, then the "visible elements of architecture" just "vanish" (meaning they become irrelevant to the creation of experience of the Whole). hence architecture is the creator of experience - i can either highlight the elements (at the cost of hampering the universal connect) or i can arrange the elements in such a way that only the universal connect gets established and all other elemental things fade away in the background.

which is more necessary then? is it the harping on the visual or architectonic dimension of architecture or experiential? visual means nothing in fact. it is the experience that is triggered within that is the prime concern of architecture. experience comes first and then the elements.
