Pu means: Everything I don't know or understand at this moment.

Pu is an abstraction, comparable to R in math.
It's like a mathematical set of all mental components you classify as "don't know or don't understand". It has no counterpart in the real world, it only exists in your mind.

The contents of the mathematical R are the same for everyone. Sometimes hard to understand, but mathematicians can talk about it and create prove what it contains and should contain. It's at least inter-subjective, if not objective information.

There are borders where science and philosophy are not able to go beyond.
Some people don't like to look at those borders, they find it difficult to see that they exist.

Other people see those borders more clearly, but start fantasizing about their meaning and what is beyond. I don't think that that is a proper way.

The borders have a tendency to move, at least our view of those borders.

Today I read about a philosophical and science border as described by Bernard d'Espagnat.
