By the Way, What is not a construct?

[Rafael Thundercat]

The posts with X,Z,Y Jesus, Human Rigths etc being constructs seem like a new trend now. So the Golden Question is : What is not construction? 

[Vibes]

Also, watch out for crocodiles they are everywhere!

[Yimpa]

To be, or not to be, that is the question…

[Schizophonia]

Absolutely nothing at a certain level of consciousness 😉

Imagination is a social construct and not by any stretch of the imagination.

[Salvijus]

Nothing can be created or destructed, constructed or deconstructed, only transformed.

The substance that transforms itself from one form to another itself is not constructable or deconstructable.

Language is a social contruction, writen even more but even populations with traditions of Oral Transmition still use language as a cultural tool to contruct Origim Stories,Cosmovision,Myths,Social Rules and Spread it on and on. Indigenous in Amazom are just now starting to write the songs they used to only recive via oral transmision. If a white man ask for translation they find difficult because their language follow a grammatic and use words that dont have compatible ones in any other language. 

How to derive any meaning without using language? Eyes communication, blinking? Hehe

Construct is a duality, it's all consciousness and there's nothing behind it.

[Princess Arabia]

Consciousness.

[gettoefl]

Constructs (which are divided into natural and social) are what mind can make sense of

Absolute non-dual stuff like god, truth, love, infinity ... are beyond its grok

I love this , but surely in between duality  and constructs we can find more subtle answers?  Nondualism isn't the only truth, but like you are saying nothing behind it, it is the soil from which intellect grows and flourishes

[KoryKat]

What is not a construct?

Physical reality? (hit yourself , observe if a construct hit you?) 

Pain? - (pinch yourself  - is this purely physical , or your mind that is creating it?) 

Time? - (become present and have no thoughts of future nor past, when you stop being present and thinking again, did time pause and wait for your mind to construct it again?)

Emotional states? (are they something you experience when affected by reality, or are you mentally constructing your emotions based on interpretations?)

 

Remember the Triune Brain Theory...  Reptile brain >> mammal brain >> neo-cortex

We are not thinking creatures that feel, but feeling creatures that think

Most talk about "ego non-duality", I'm talking about "metaphysical non-duality".
Everything is a consciousness construct, which is no different from conscious experience.
Construct here is more to a building block, an endless holistic system of phasing frequencies.
When I say "construct" I mean everything, both the "creating" and the "created" portions.
Of course, there's less of a "create from nothing" and more of a "self-organize into"
They're both made of the same self-reinforcing, self-structuring morphic fields.

Additionally, your brain constructs a reality simulation, all you've ever known is a construct.
But the construct is a simulation of something behind the construct, a higher-tier construct.
So it's not really a "construct", more of a being, but so is your representation and filtering.
Imagine colors, they're "electromagnetic frequencies", right? Wrong, that's just patterns.
The colors are a qualia experience produced to distinguish neuron firing patterns from the eye.

Nothing is anything outside of perception, which can be expanded, contracted, morphed.
Everything is a construct, a distinction inside consciousness, that can be further morphed.

At some layer, the distinction stops mattering and you realize how you warp reality to perceive it.
You create reality out of this infinite possibility space by tuning, representing, and symbolizing it.
And any "construct"/"non-construct" is as arbitrary as any other, even though practicality exists.
And there is intention behind experience creation/tuning, that creates various layers of reality.

Good question. When you find out, tell me.  

Do we experience the nature of constructions, though?

What about your physical body and the water you drink and the oxygen you breathe? Is that a construct too?

I get your point, yet from a certain viewpoint, the body could be seen as biologically constructed. Oxygen isn't inherent to existence either, it is the result of a chemical process. So, we can recognize different levels of depth in constructions.

A biological construction is not a human mind construct though because it's tangible and we can touch it like a chair.
