The Endless Regression of Process

If everything flows, how can we give a name to any experience we have? Even the experience of being ourselves?

All objects are processes. All naming is a process. All conceptual ideas are a process. All ways of ordering the experience are processes themselves. Even our point of view (consciousness)  is a fluid process.

We have, of course, conventions that allow us to live our daily lives. These conventions allow us to proceed by calling processes that are prehended -- objects. They are a frame.
