In another analogy, Bohm asks us to consider a pattern produced by making small cuts in a folded piece of paper and then, literally, unfolding it. Widely separated elements of the pattern are, in actuality, produced by the same original cut in the folded piece of paper. Here the cuts in the folded paper represent the Implicate Order and the unfolded pattern represents the Explicate Order.
Many, along with Bohm himself, have seen strong connections between his ideas and ideas from the East. Some proponents of [[new age| alternative religions]] (such as [[shamanism]]) claim a connection with their belief systems as well.▼
==Connections to other works==
▲Many, along with Bohm himself, have seen strong connections between his ideas and ideas from the East. There are particularly strong connections to [[Buddhism]], for which [[Einstein]] also shared sympathy. Some proponents of [[new age| alternative religions]] (such as [[shamanism]]) claim a connection with their belief systems as well.
Bohm may have known that his idea is a striking analogy to "intensional and extensional aboutness" to which [[R. A. Fairthorne]] (1969) insightfully referred information scientists but few paid attention as evidenced by googling. [[John Searle]] treated ''aboutness'' and ''network'' in his [[Intentionality]] (1983), contemporarily with Bohm's ''Wholeness'' (1983)! ''Aboutness'' is as odd as ''wholeness'' in sharp contrast. As the former is to the ''content'', so the latter is to the ''context'' to the last as the ultimate determiner of meaning. The holistic view of ''context'', hence another striking analogy of ''wholeness'', was first put forward in [[The Meaning of Meaning]] by [[C. K. Ogden]] & [[I. A. Richards]] (1923), including the ''literary, psychological,'' and ''external''. These are respectively analogous to [[Karl Popper]]'s ''world 3, 2,'' and ''1'' appearing in his ''Objective Knowledge'' (1972 and later ed.). Bohm's worldview of "undivided wholeness" is contrasted with Popper's three divided worlds. The direct causality among these and other authorships may be ''actually'' evident in the implicate order, though ''apparently'' not in the explicate order in spite of a great deal of reasonable doubt in terms of locality, ethnicity, ideology, academic tendency, and so on. Bohm and Popper favored Einstein above all.
