Arranging opportunities?

Man, I just read that part of Book V today, weird you pondered the same thing, Verum. I can't speak for anybody else, but it seems easier to consider the hyper-subjective nature of catalyst if it's directly conveyed from the universe to me without intermediaries. And yet, that can't possibly be true of any catalyst, since there must be something positioned in a rather complex and interconnected Creation in order for a subjective perception to occur! I rather think it clarified to me how intricately interwoven this illusion is that it can behave this way. And it means that I'm radically responsible for my actions, not simply when I'm responding to straightforward negatively-perceived phenomena, but also in a much more totalizing way towards seemingly neutral or positive events. That sure is daunting; good thing it's not a puzzle I'm expected to solve, but only one I'm supposed to love. Cheers on the great thread!
