The Frame Problem

By Leo Gura - April 9, 2025

This is a very powerful insight into the nature of mind and sense-making.

This is why rationalism fails. You cannot solve the problem of sense-making through any formal method, including logic, rationality, and scientific method, because reality is infinite and therefore combinatorally explosive. For example, chess is combinatorally explosive so it requires intuition to play, not formal calculation. There’s just not enough processing power in a brain or even a PC to brute-force your way through chess. You have to use intelligence. Which is also what makes chess meaningful, beautiful, and enjoyable. If you could just brute-force your way through chess it would be meaningless. And so with life itself and sense-making.

Fundamentally, the reason scientific method cannot make sense of Reality is because of the frame problem. Scientific method takes frames for granted. Scientific method just assumes itself to be the one correct frame from which everything else can be understood. This fails to grasp the profound relativity of frames. Ultimately every frame is relative and you cannot simplistically say that one rules them all. But science tries to do that, and what’s more, science is unaware that it’s doing this. Science isn’t conscious of its own epistemic circularity, self-bias, and frame-chauvinism. Science does not understand that Reality is truly unbounded. Science treats reality like a finite game, but it’s an Infinite Game.

The problem is so profound. As I explained in my series, Deconstructing The Myth Of Science, the naive notion that science is a single frame is already wrong. There’s no such thing as “the frame of science”, since there are many different frames of science, many ways science could be framed. Humans have to fight each other over how to define science. It’s not obvious. Even scientists don’t agree with each other, and there’s no external source of authority you can appeal to to tell you what counts as “science”. So how can you select the one master frame to rule them all? Well, of course, you can’t. The attempt to find or construct a master frame is just fundamentally the wrong approach. All of epistemology boils down to the realization that there can’t be one master frame. This is the elephant in the room. Another way to put it is, Reality cannot allow anyone to monopolize Truth. No one gets to say: “Only my way of seeing the world is the correct and best way!” No! You’re just stuck in one constructed frame without realizing it.

All of the Actualized.org work is grounded in my fundamental comprehension of the relativity of all frames. So I grasped this frame problem back when I was 20 years old and then I built Actualized.org on the fundamental insight that all frames are relative, including science and even nonduality and even enlightenment! The key insight behind all my work is that I grasped that reality cannot be understood through the frame of science, nor the frame of rationality, nor any frame at all, not even the frame of nonduality, Buddhism, or enlightenment, because reality is an Infinite Mind. But even though I intuitively understood this since I was 20, it took me 12 years of creating Actualized.org content to develop the skill and clarity needed to articulate this so precisely. What were fuzzy, vague intuitions are now rigorous explicit arguments. I can explain in technical detail why science cannot make sense of Reality.

Another way to put it is that each frame is a bias, and then the fundamental insight is that Reality cannot ultimately have any biases, so no preferred frame. No preferred frame, no bias, then ultimately leads to the profoundly beautiful and counter-intuitive conclusion that even though no frame is absolute, the lack of an absolute frame IS the Absolute Frame! So the Absolute Frame is no-frame. Which is the same as all frames. No-frame and All-frames is identical. And then the final stroke of genius is that the Absolute Frame of No-Frame is literally just ontological Love. Love is the relativity of all difference and the nullification of all bias, which strange-loopily becomes the container and creator of all forms, all biases, giving rise to infinite perspective upon a seemingly material world.

God is Infinite Frames.
And Infinite Frames is LOVE.

Ta-daaaa!

Attachment to any frame is self-deception. To jailbreak your mind is to realize the Infinity of Frame, unlocking Infinite Intelligence and Infinite Love

This understanding of the frame problem is analogous to Einstein’s discovery of General Relativity. It’s like the discovery of Absolute Relativity, which is even bigger and deeper than General Relativity. And it’s more important that General Relativity because it leads to the discovery of God! Imagine if Einstein proved God. That’s really the basis of Actualized.org.

So yeah… Actualized.org solves the entire problem of epistemology, which is why it’s so unique and powerful. It’s not just some self-help or spirituality channel, it’s an absolute solution to epistemology and ontology. Yeah, it took insane intelligence to solve that. The number of humans on this planet who understand the Infinity of Frame can be counted on one hand.

Even though John Vervaeke speaks beautifully about frames here, he still doesn’t understand the significance of his own words. He’s still operating within the frame of science, the frame of rationality, the frame of Western philosophy, the frame of academia, the frame of Buddhism, the frame of humanity, the frame of sanity.

The bottom line is, the reason Actualized.org teachings are so powerful is because they are not stuck on any frame. Not even the frame of sanity! This gives us access to Infinite Intelligence for our sense-making. I understood Reality so deeply that I realized that even sanity is just a frame. Actualized.org integrates insanity. Because sanity limits Mind too much, cutting us off from the total realization of God.

I’m pointing out to you the depth of the epistemic foundation that was necessary for Actualized.org to be what it is. This foundation was built to hold INFINITY/GOD. Those who arrogantly and irresponsibility neglect to lay this foundation end up in self-deception, missing God.

I’m trying to teach you one of the most subtle and advanced lessons of all: the importance of Epistemic Responsibility.
