Or resonate with things just because I agree with them.
Like where is the evidence of all this stuff that happens in the Law of One?
I'm just not feeling it.
But I'm happy.
In my opinion, there is no evidence of sufficient gravity. Nothing is known; nothing is certain. There is no fact or aspect of existence that can subsist on its own. Without the unity of infinity, all is relative, necessarily piecemeal, and devoid of ultimate context.
Instead of seeking to have this mystery resolved, why not celebrate the mystery? After all, it may in fact be exactly as you suspect: the Law of One as we understand it is incomplete or flat out mistaken. But it was never the intent of the Confederation or L/L Research to provide infallible facts. The intent, as I understand it, was to inspire your own search, beyond the narrow confines of a reductive cosmology.
If it seems flighty to celebrate mystery, then consider that this is part of what incarnation is for: to ground our exploration of the ineffable in a drama of personified, embodied, limited, discrete phenomena. You don't need to apprehend the mystery in such an abstract manner; you can apprehend it, instead, in the moment-to-moment experience of interacting with other selves. In other words, there is a way to at once work with these concepts while still viewing them as part of your day-to-day, mundane life. Then it's not flighty in the least; it's just the spiritual equivalent of applying physics to the task of sweeping the floor; at once perfect and totally superfluous to the root of the activity.
I hope this helps.
