Do you mean, THAT and NOT THAT?

View does not mean a literal sight. A concept is a view. The Absolute has no 
terms.
One must take into consideration a direction of meaning from the use of 
words.
It is like the word "THAT". "THAT" represents a "thing". The Absolute is not 
a "thing".
One goes beyond the literal meaning of "THAT" in order to grasp the concept.
"View" can also be taken in the same manner. One can substitute 
"relationship" for
"view". As an example :

The Absolute is Relative in the relationship of the Relative.
The Relative is Absolute in the relationship of the Absolute.

Right. There is no such THING as THE Absolute. So how can we talk about it
viewing or being viewed?

The Relative is Absolute when viewed by the Absolute.


Perspectives change with the standpoint of viewing.

But, "The Absolute is Relative, and the Relative is Absolute." Didn't you

know that? It comes straught from the mouth of the Buddha, and was verified

later by HPB.
