yeah, I forgot to mention that we, spiders, have a limited viewing distance, that represents understanding. This means, that if a spider can see another clearly, it understands the point of view of the other spider. This model does not, however, make a metaphor for the strength of belief(or simply stubborness), because, I find, it is irrelevant.
anyways: -Each thread represents a certain belief/truth/point of view. -The Buddhist view, for example, will be represented as the crossing of certain threads. -Each spider has its own views as well. -Therefore, Buddhist spiders sit on nearby crossings, but none sit on the same one. -When a good question is asked(f.e. is ignorance truly bliss?{it is...}), all crossings are attracted towards the centre. -Thus they form spike-like shapes on the otherwise even inner surface of the orb. -The more threads cross, the closer to the centre the point of crossing gets. -Thus, spiders, who have few beliefs, will be farthest from the centre, and are unable to understand the spiders who are closest.(because they can't see far up the spikes) -Different spiders have different eyesight. -Spiders, who are easily swayed, travel constantly from belief to belief at a high pace.(they might be affected by advertisement and such) -All spiders travel in a two dimensional plane -Those with firm beliefs, travel slowly in a straight line in any certain direction. -Important events may change their direction of travel and/or speed of travel -spiders with firm beliefs will have less life-changing events(provided they live in the same circumstances)
I don't know what else might be unclear... also, I seem to have made numerous assumptions...
