| The form of inquiry into inquiry, <math>y \cdot y,</math> requires that any power assumed on the part of the right is open to be indicted on the part of the left. This entails that any power arrogated for the ends of inquiry has to be given a name, not only under which it is invoked as an executive power, but also by which it is entered on the agenda of issues to inquire into, and finally through which it is indicted for submission to all the powers of inquiry that be. This combination of ''appellation'' and ''supplication'', or ''nomination for'' and ''submission to'' the jurisdiction of a reflexive application, makes up a large part of what is usually called ''reflection''. | | The form of inquiry into inquiry, <math>y \cdot y,</math> requires that any power assumed on the part of the right is open to be indicted on the part of the left.

− | Many times, otherwise unrelated uses of the word "reflection" in the physical sciences can be suggestive. For example, reflection is one of the ways that a continuous appearing phenomenon can be brought into a form of interaction with itself and thereby to exhibit its nature as a pattern of activity with definite features and discrete characteristics. But metaphors like these can be kept from spinning out misleading clues only if the keys to understanding them as analogies can be found. | + | Many times, otherwise unrelated uses of the word ''reflection'' in the physical sciences can be suggestive.
