All the mysteries arise from the experiencing being included in experience - all philosophical questions arise out of this too, questions and venturings which themselves belong to experience. Hence the idea that history is a project of metaphysical self-understanding. If the collective mind plugs away at this for long enough it must converge, given enough time, on the truth - and despite all of its errors and detours which will ultimately be incorporated, become parts of a symmetry. But it's too early to tell which way this will go, and in particular whether any of the short-cuts via an exclusive focus on consciousness, or the experience of experiencing, are of any value, are valid anticipations of the final truth, only that they necessarily take themselves to be such.
