Even the "entering" of time/space is allegory for an abstract idea applied to space/time, here/now.I understand your perspective. Everything has to be put into words though, or explained symbolically. The nature of reality is symbolic anyway.
Frankly, the more I study the LOO, the more it becomes abstract with very little literal information.
Thank you. I understand as well. But I have a personal opinion about things, things do not need to be put into words. Like you said, words are symbols for something. They are symbols of the mystery of spirit.
"I feel creeped out in this house".
"Prove it".
It can't be done. And what is "creeped out"? The true nature of spirit is expressed. There is no "creeped out". It isn't even a feeling. The mind probes the area of the house, what it brings "light" to in the dark areas of spirit manifest in energy waves of the body, the mind again probes these... and so on and so on.
In this way, the spirit is "real", the mind is aware, and the physical can be classified as illusion because it only reflects the other two. But, this is an exercise in conceptual processing.
Then words are insufficient in every way. Including this instance
