There are domains of experience where symbolic structure is the literal architecture of how reality shows up.
Symbolic or mystical truths about these are literally true within those domains, and only symbolically true in the physical domain.
Frame of references are relative. When within the physical domain and speaking of higher domains, we are in a frame of reference where what is “literal” applies only to the physical. When the frame of reference shifts to the domains that are spoken of, the symbolic truths become entirely literal.
Analogies, correspondences, and metaphors are ways in which we can begin to attempt to describe the literal truths in other domains. There is no other way to speak about them while in the frame of reference of the physical domain.
Symbolic language maps structural qualities of experience.
