Reality is not a territory. Reality is an intrinsically undifferentiated Being that manifests the territory, wherein beings capable of mapping the territory evolve. Once fully evolved, these beings will realize their identity with each other and with the Reality manifesting the territory, whereupon their maps will be one with the territory. Freed from the obsession of contemporary interpreters of quantum mechanics with the reification of their calculational tools, quantum mechanics provides deep insights into the atemporal process by which Being has set the stage for its own evolution, that is, for the evolution of beings one with Being and partaking of the power by which Being manifests itself to itself.
