I’d like to hear your perspectives on randomness. This question has implications for the understanding of othering.

Is true randomness possible?

If not, this would be a limitation of mind.

If so, it also feels like a limitation of mind (inability to predict/know the outcome of an event).

    Randomness is ignore-ance in perception. Ie, that which is not consciously awareof, but only an appearance not an actuality. That said, all potential states of experience exist simultaneously and all operational iterative transformations between states also exist, so there isn’t a hard determinism either. The choice of operational transformation sequences is just unconscious.

      It can be unconscious. There are the same number of experiences where it is conscious as there are where it isn’t.
