If you search the internet, you're instantly confronted with a vast reservoir of knowledge — academic, scientific, artificial (AI-generated), and even channeled sources. Amid this teeming sea of information, how do you verify what is real and what is true?
Aviv, Karen and Kyriaki delve into this verification problem by tracing the evolution of knowledge and how it has shaped our modern landscape. They examine seven forms of knowing as a prelude to an integrated search for truth enabled by the natural verification systems of life. This leads to an intriguing proposition, that despite the shadow of the scientific method being the denial of the subjective or inner realms, it represents the search for an objective third-person perspective. This shift could herald a transformative leap into fourth- and fifth-person perspectives; the holding of multiple perspectives while integrating polarities, conflicting feelings and experiences. Such a multi-perspectival capacity may well be the catalyst for the Universalis Human to come online in an entirely new way.

“There is a part of me that is totally impatient, like I want everything to happen this second. And there is a part of me that is patient beyond this lifetime, because I deeply understand that there are certain processes that will take a very, very long time; they will take centuries. So, I am able to integrate those conflicting feelings, sentiments, and experiences. And when I do so, I give rise, I am birthing the Universalis capacity.” (Aviv)
“That leads me to suggest that as we give rise to the symphonic orchestration of multiple lives and dimensions in our interiority, not just interiority in the singular sense, but interiority in between us, when we do so, we are literally providing the universe the space in which the universe is awakened to its cosmic symphony and to its interior dimensions, through us, with us. So it's both poetically beautiful and compelling and, at the same time, far-reaching in what it tells us about the verification system of the greater universe.” (Aviv)
