philosophical question about Voynich research

[Linda]

Sometimes i think the text has no meaning per se, but the visual references, including not just the imagery, but the glyphs and their patterns, mean everything because of the correlations we make with everything in history in order to understand it. I for one would not have learned or seen so much of what i have come across without the vms having sent me there to go have a look. 

But i really would like to see more concordance, it is like the frustrations of aligning general relativity with quantum  field theory. How many dimensions are there?

You may be right, depending on what it turns out to be, it could be pretty disappointing. It reminds me of story about a magician, who wouldnt tell how he did a trick, because the wonder would be lost. I figured out the trick, and yes the wonder is subdued, but you gain understanding, perspective, and maybe some skeptism toward the next wonder that pops up, but that just leads to quicker understanding of that next wonder. I prefer the understanding, i can still shift my perspective to see the wonder, especially when guided to, that is what a magician does. Whereas if i dont understand, i dont know which way to shift towards doing so, and that state to me is less comfortable than knowing.

That being said, if it turns out that my interpretations are proven completely wrong, i would still wonder about how they seemed to fit so well. How did this manuscript make me my own magician? Because the understanding that i have gained regarding the references i currently believe to be portrayed will still be there, the commonalities will still align, even if the references prove not to exist. So it is kind of magical, either way. I think i would rather know which way, so that i can know which dimensions fold into each other, and thereby gain further understanding of it all.
