The modern view treats truth as that which emerges from scientific consensus. But that is an impediment to truth. In fact, its basis is third-person knowledge. It is not fundamental enough. The modern scientific theme (orienting principle) cannot see the singular light beyond code 0/1. But if we take a deep look at code it's a division of the monad (≈ Schrödinger's one mind singulare tantum). This is προαρχή (before the beginning). It is even before thinking and thought which can only arise from an unarisen singular mind (Skt. cittamātra ≈ monad). But science is only concerned with pragmatic truth, truth which is useful and of course limited. What is interesting about this theme it allows us to postulate that we live in a sim-world and the natural bodies that we use are tokens or avatars (Donald D. Hoffman). This sim-world must be codable. In spite of this situation, it is the very monad that comes shining through when for a brief moment the code is transcended (anastasis).
