How do you personally picture infinity?

How do you picture infinity?

In an attempt to answer, or at least reply to, the question, I would have to discuss, as did Illamasqua, the un-picturability of infinity.

To know something, to understand something, indeed, to see something requires an other, a dualism, a subject and object.

Infinity cannot be made into an object. It cannot see itself because it is that which is doing the seeing, much as the eyeball is seeing the world around it but cannot see itself.

But more deeply, it is the "one without a second." How can some thing with no beginning, no end, no boundaries, no limitations, no center, no perimeter, no space, no time, no qualities, no content (or conversely, and as meaningless, ALL qualities, all content, all boundaries, all limitations, all space, all time, etc.) see itself? It needs the concept of the "other."

Thus the necessity of the illusion of subject and object: a great experiment to investigate and see itself, though to what ultimate end, and to what ultimate gain, absolutely un-does my mind.

As does attempting to contemplate a total unity where subject and object collapse. I believe firmly that it is literally impossible for the mind complex to see beyond subject and object. Our minds are hardwired to perceive and shape reality in those terms. Indeed we are the product of that subject/object split.

I think only through the mysterious process of enlightenment/awakening due we "understand" unity, and that understanding is not whatsoever a property or function of the mind, though it does seem to dissolve much of the mind complex activity.

Such contemplation, however, needs doing! The more time we can turn our attention to the Creator, the more that we correspondingly and proportionally become that which we seek, that which we always have been all along.

At any rate, illuminating OP, anagogy. : )
