No....a nice idea....poetic perhaps. But if we're talkin' Truth...and I always am here...that's just a hot mess.

In other words, all of this is just conceptual banter....time-filler for you. Yes, the "potential" to go beyond is indeed, always there....

... those kind of unions, where one's heart-felt interests have to be exercised in closet because the other does not approve...? Well, lets just say, the one who is standing in judgment...layin' down the hammer on the other.....belittling your interest in something that I think IS a sincere interest.....NOT cool....not at all.

The key word there is "rejected." Indeed, at full circle, there is no rejection/denigration of one facet of "THIS" over another....however, "nothing but being," does not equal an absolute knowing that each appearing 'thing/object' is having it's own individualized perception/experience.
This is the problem with this entire conversation. The goal-posts keep moving. The original assertion of Reefs was very clear;
In direct rebuttal to the assertion of ultimate 'absence of knowledge' re: the appearance of perception/experience relative to appearing people, Reefs stated that it was known...could indeed be known.
But from there, we get all sorts of argument about how this knowing comes about; Realization of true nature is the latest, but the original argument had "logic," as it's basis...the "if it's all cheese...therefore," argument.
There is a vast difference between the realization "It's ALL Self," vs. an absolute knowing that each and every temporally appearing thing/form, is giving rise to perception/experience.

Recognizing the world for what it is, seeing the world with heart, with affection does not equal knowing for absolute certain that appearance are existent entities in their own right.
This tact of accusing those whom you disagree with of being devoid of 'heart,' of being devoid of affection for the world, simply because they are denoting all of it as empty of Truth is but a disingenuous attempt to try to win an argument by insult.
By what means do you know this absence of affection for the world...? You are basing that on the assertion of 'not knowing,' which simply means you have no real understanding of what that means. To see the world (and all it's things) as empty, absent, devoid of it's own inherent existence, says nothing at all about how you feel about the world...the level/degree of reverence...affection that is felt for it.
