Everybody defines themselves first (their own beliefs and understanding of beliefs), before they can define others.

I agree.

Never be limited by another person’s perception of reality, or allow their perception to be what defines you.

All things have some depth of truth justified by occurence alone.

Yes.

The idea that the observer is the cause of division suggests that the observer is the division itself. The observer is the past, which includes the observer's prejudices, experiences, and knowledge. This past observer looks at the present, which is the observed.
The act of looking at something changes it, which is known as the observer effect. This effect applies to people, animals, and even atoms.
The idea that the observer is the cause of division suggests that when the observer understands itself, there is observation without division.

Self-Consciousness is based on understanding your own Divisions, why your own mind seeks one Object instead of another, and how you see it differently than everybody else.

Cultivating the darkness of obscurity is the divisive distinction of clarity by which light occurs. To see only but darkness as just a just darkness is the unseen light of awareness which is cultivated by attention.

An experience seems obscure on its own, but is clarified within the context of another experience with a continuous clarity being cultivated in light of further experiences thus the intensity of a once experienced time and space either expands or contracts its influence over a person.

Awareness has an intuitive geometric process in these regards.

1. The Line: One experience progresses to another.

2. The Circle: One experience cycles back to another.

3. The Spiral: The experience transforms through a progressive self-referentiality in which each experience becomes renewed.

4. The Point: The spontaneity of experience by the inherent gaps within, between and through that occurs from an empty mind.

In these regards there are very subtle laws to consciousness and the nature of occurence through which it manifests.

The distinction of division is the division between unity and division. It is a loop.

Time is the ultimate division...every moment that passes, is one that biological consciousness must "catch up" to.

Time is how we percieve things, the layers that hold our identity are a thing. Time is the act of perception for it allows distinctions.

Reject or Take, the contrast is all you in perfect balance. Contrast is the real, authentic you. The You that loves each side of you equally with impartial, unconditional love, without judgment, bias, or prejudice.

Contrast, like the understanding of large versus small, is only known through comparison.
