Repeated acts of forgetfulness
There is nothing above and beyond the the material reality. Everything that is there can be understood from physicality. There is no dualism or pluralism. To feel “disconnected” at this thought is to be under the same illusion as feeling “connected”. Both are as impossible. In this way, the existential absurdity makes sense. We have always made meaning for ourselves, under the guise of religion, philosophy, science, or some other construct. We are good at it. We shall forever struggle with this in repeated acts of forgetfulness.

Self and other unawareness
I call them things because at the first confrontation I don’t know what they are, simply that they are. Without interaction with things I do not know more of their qualities. First, I observe. Next, I engage.
Note, I do not know “I” either at this stage.
The first confrontation
There are things. At the first confrontation with things we are unaware of sensing, perceiving, and conceiving (together, let us call them “observing” or “observation”). I am also not aware of myself as an observing thing at this point. Simply, things are “there”; and they exist or “be”.
