Where does one place the truth of time? Is the continuous flow a part of the objective world of nature, or does it belong to the logic and a priori understanding of the conscious subject. The existence "in" the world, and the motions of matter, creates the domain we experience as phenomena. The share in the All and the world-soul... are we not subjectively percieving the moment from one perspective?
The self draws back into a place of no time - a meeting place for the beings willing to journey beyond the cave of darkness. At once we see the thinkers contemplating the truth to "this" eternity that transcends both space and time.
The self cannot distinguish at times whether the experience and perceptions are a manifestation - "a phenomena" - created by the subjective mind, or whether the objective nature exists as a continuum beyond the self. This is not a negation of the existence of the world... it is a questioning of how and what logical association the subjectivity of the self has with the cosmic narrative as a whole. This questioning includes questioning perception itself.
The non linear-ality of the flow of time, and our "personal" views on the interpretation of consciousness in relation to existence.
The self is not the All, but only a minute glimpse, a drop of water in the sea of the eternality of process. From this place, interpretation of phenomena and the coming to "know" in an intuitive way the pure moment of the nakedness of nature... "truth?"
Who am I?
Isolation, a natural outcome of the dis-enchanted modern world. The self realizes that it has, to a degree, assimilated the self nature of previous worlds. Is this not the post-modern process? The merging of and seeing the world from a premodern perspective - the making of a new system, a change in the relationship of "identity". Consciousness does not live in only "one" system of beliefs, but can learn the how of the intuitive process of "coming to be" - a being that is both of the past and future of existence.
It is a, reverting back, to the unity of its essential nature. "Existential meaning" and "post-modern meaning" becomes a reconstruction of the premodern world with the variables of a disunified and "in the dark" modern system that is falling short of its ideals.
The self sits and stills the mind, allowing itself to reconnect to the divine, "emanating" source - a meditation on its own essential nature in a non-a posteriori direction towards truth.
Being emerges not as a will-to-power but as a will-to-contemplate - a process of opening itself to the possibility of coming to feel the presence of the eternal thou. Time no longer is a logical measure of duration, but a necessary part of the experience of phenomena. From one interpretive lens to the next, consciousness realizes the diversity of views appearing on the back drop - the space of the eternity of the All.
"Identity" becomes something that has transcended time in its functionality. Yet, the question remains what is "essence"? The light of the inner self burns to understand...
"Truth"
Truth becomes the destination for the self that is in the process of identifying with the essence. In this way, "truth" and "essence" is intimately linked through the will-to-be. Being re-emerges out of the confines of time as the clarity of the moment takes hold.
But is this process leading to Essence and Truth? The ever expansive diversity, unified by the mind that contemplates its place in the cosmic whole. The All emerges and the order of existence makes itself known to the self, in thought. From this perspective, the unity of the All manifests itself in the mind as truth of a thinker contemplating the question of identity and existence.
Existence becomes both a practical skill and an artistic/aesthetic expression of the coming-to-"know" one's own being in its most intimate moments.
