Logic is a method of cognition, a method to look at information and process it, a function the brain provides. It has nothing to do with “reality” or “truth”. but is rather part of creating/processing “reality”, based on causal perception and interpretation. Reality is a paradox. It is and is not. It’s a product of the mind, interpreted through the brain.
Logic can be as fallacious as feelings can be, which have their own reasoning in their paradigm of existence. They all are as true and real as the clouds in the sky.
If the sensation of logic is challenged and logic turns into confusion you can get a taste of “reality”, of “truth”. Those are bewildering when challenged in their assumed nature, and their essence remains unknown.
When you feel close to breakdown or madness, but remain present, just in this, as it is, the unknown and unfathomable, the mystery becomes a ground to thrive. It’s vibrant and dynamic, any attempt to control it is futile.
Logic is kind of a “golden path” in cognitive understanding, and what violates logic is often perceived as untrue or false. Logic usually follows the line of “cause and effect”, it cannot easily fathom complex structures like networks, simultaneity, interconnectedness, or interdependence. It usually exists in a “two-dimensional” space, like a map, and cannot oversee the reality of the landscape, the environment, which is embedded in a network of interconnectedness and interdependence.
A species driven by subconscious survival instinct, desire, and fear, trying to control them with logic is quite challenged in its evolution. Logic is analytical and looks at fragments. It separates one from the other and compares. Hence it is rather dividing than unifying.
When complex challenges are merely approached with logic they might face the proverbial box of Pandora. Or a phenomenon like the “butterfly effect”. Or as it is said “the road to hell is paved with good intentions”.
Logic works in a rather limited frame and comes under threat with mind expansion, with expanding consciousness. It cannot stand on the ground of simultaneity, of “both-and”, of “neti neti” – not this, not that.
