Ultimation

There must be some foundation from which to realize some form of knowledge. Some base from which we can build upon, yet the truth or realization of reality seems to elude us. Perhaps there is a glimmer of hope, a ray of light that transgresses the clouds. As all doubt collects in the skeptics bowl is there not some function that is pure and evident, even to the skeptic? Perhaps it is that at the most simplistic level we could assert with true, unquestionable certainty that, at the very least, something if anything at all, exists despite the conception of "nothing". At the very least something, whatever it is, exists! To provide "nothing" even with a name contradicts itself. So, now we are at least, at the very minimum, left with the fact that something exists. All possible conception from which this reality, as it can in any way be conceived, inherently implies that something, rather than a contradictory nothing, exists.

Everything else that may build upon that "something" that exists is a necessary probability that actually diminishes as it attempts to describe reality. We start with something (100%) and work our way out (99.999999999 - to the infinite) according to the available evidence we have in support of something to say that it actually "corresponds to reality".

Since certainty exists as allusive, in all specifics, we should persuade ourselves into accepting that a true understanding of reality is not possible, but also not necessary. We don't need absolute certainty, we merely need "good enough". That is, "reality is perfection" and that we are each evolved with a separate level of understanding about the way reality actually is. We shall never comprehend reality, merely a progressive and reasonable account of reality. We are merely adding upon the ".9s".
