Yourself?

The rules that govern the universe are conceived by ourselves. the mathematicians came up with the set of whole numbers - the universe didn't. of course, it exists before then, but no-one established it as a rule - but us.

and our limit lies not in the fact that our mind needs to be directed at something, but in the fact that our mind cannot be directed at everything at once. why else do we need to break concepts up into chunks before we can understand them?

because, like it or not, our mind is very much like a processing computer. To visualise a polygon we must first locate the coordinates of its vertices, then link them up. and our processing capabiity is simply not quite up to par when it comes to really complex polygons.

yes, the unconscious is the next step, but it is by no means advantageous all the time. to relegate something to the unconscious is to put it out of our control, so that we can focus our efforts elsewhere.

yes, i suppose to a large extent our mind is limited. and as mentioned before, it is because we simply have not experienced enough. we cannot visualise the fourth dimension - some of us think we can, but that is simply what wwe perceive it to be, for who in this world can truly claim that he/she has experienced or travelled in the fourth dimension? and having no prior contact with these thigns we can only leave them to imagination.

after watching a few episodes of Broken Saints i think the only thing that has no true limitation is the truth.
