Buh, it's all just petty semantics with you! Petty word games! I once told you that it's through acceptance of appearances that we determine Truth, and I don't see how my use of the word acceptance is any different than your use of the word belief.
I don't see why you're dragging in what I said in another thread over here. The two contexts are different. However, if you mean that we should accept the fact that things are nothing more than what they appear to be, then I agree with you. This acceptance would of course be an example of belief in logic. But what you said was vague, and could be interpreted in a lot of ways. I'm not blaming you for that, because you're just beginning to understand these truths.
Totality is truth, and totality includes consciousness within it. You don't need consciousness for the totality to be.
You contradict your own argument here. The totality includes the knowing subject, so that subject is definitely needed by the totality. If it wasn't "needed"(again, I don't quite understand what you mean by this) by the totality, then it wouldn't exist in the first place.
And yes, there is a difference between our mere concept of the totality and the actual totality.
The term "concept of the totality" doesn't make any sense to me. I've no interest in a concept totality. I want the totality itself.
You yourself said that whatever appearances you know are not all the appearances there are.
I didn't say that. I said that there is a category for things that do not/cannot appear. The things that do appear to me now are all the appearances there are, by definition.
Like I said, there is a difference between subjective Truths, and the absolute truth which makes subjectivity possible.
All subjective truths are also objective truths, and vice versa. Imagine that a red ball exists in time1 and space1. Can the fact that it existed in time1 and space1 ever be falsified, even in a different place in the future? Knowledge is useless without consciousness. It's not knowledge at all.
