Upon meeting

The truth is hard to come by, due to the nature of trust and similarity. How much has been revealed to me in the art of "thought"? I am a dualist in the present, due to the radical nature of the separation between the what is of the material phenomenal world and that represented in the Mind of the believer. It is "light" subsumed by darkness and despair in the night of the world of extension.


Can there not be a path towards a reunion of the formal ideal world and that of the present? Who am I, but an inquisitive soul experiencing the phenomenal with pure subjectivity with multiple modes of being. Self-authenticity becomes the process of the will to power. Is it not the purpose of the self "to move" itself (i.e. to Will itself) to self-authentic Being?

What is Being?

The fuzzy boarders that comes with the youth of the journey, makes the identity of the Self to be an unknown of the future. For on the one hand there exists a majestic life full of meticulous calculations and an imperative to always 'Be', and on the other hand a slave like morality in the material phenomenal world full of simple darkness. How to make the world of "thought" immanent in this world becomes the journey of the Self, willing itself to "Being." Yet, I have not explained what "Being" is... Is it not creation of everything, the coming to know the All in perfect rhythm with the beauty of lived life.


This process makes the self look upon the aesthetics of life to improve upon the Will to live more virtuously in pure wisdom of the traditions of "philosophy."


Is this not the Process to being?

Eternal Process

I don't know when the self can return. The Self  on a eternal journey home to a place beyond what revelation and the material phenomenal world can say in the present. The Will held down by the darkness of the cave... is it not an eternal process to make it back to the divine - that is our original self in light. Light emerges in the world as the soul is uplifted into a realm unknown. Only the future will tell... the truth to the Self's ever present choice.

(past post)

How do we begin to express in language our experience of Being. The obliteration of all boundaries of self with nature in which we are left in total awe of existing – a process of self actualization in its most pristine state unworthy of a mortal’s “words.” We are left to ponder and contemplate the unfathomable experience of consciousness on such a subtle beatific vision, where everything infinite makes sense in perfect harmony while in unison with pure confusion of what any and all of Being and existing truly entails.

Art is an expression of the different modes of being in the infinite particularities of finite beings in a futile attempt to transcend the experience of autonomy in one’s own realization of self-isolation. The artist reveals his art as pure expression for an abstract telos, where to interpret and appreciate the art is to redeem the essence of the artist in his being-extended in the form of creation. Art abstractly defined then, is all expression in the form of appreciating and communicating the experience of existing...

past, present and future

Past memories, illusive to the present, helps construct the narrative of the self traversing through the river of life. To enjoy the company of the other, or the journey through foreign lands, it is a process of growth beginning with the Will-to-persist and the experience of both the world of the mind and the world of extention. The unknown future coming ever so close, a change taking place in the soul of the philosopher.

The place we meet - where is "here"

I begin again - a description of how philosophy begins. A process of self-realization where thought goes beyond the material-phenomenal world. We emerge by identifying with the pure subjectivity of perception, reaching out to those who can say "I" in the world of ideas. It is the affirmation of existence that frees the self from the confines of the world of appearance to a world beyond. It is here that the self builds a place that only a few can enter.


Can you not see how fine the life of the mind can be, surrounded by the wonder of existence itself?


The written words describe the self's unique existence that can only be perceived by reading between the lines. A soul appears, having nothing but his own subjectivity and a Will-to-Being. We take the existential leap towards a place beyond what the senses can perceive, to an eternal present only experienced by the soul that meditates on the words of self-revelation. It is "this" moment that one can see the reflection of the self in the other who has the power of awareness to say "we exist."

Movement from idle time

Beyond past idealistic delusions, to a place of simplicity of no direction, the Self begins its motion again from its idle past, towards a future not yet defined by its own system. Time brings cyclical patterns to the fore of lived life, where "existence" is nothing more than a mode of being constantly in a struggle to find its own identity in the present.


Have I not found "the truth" beyond what the phenomenal can present to the eyes of the "other"? Non existence, full of idle time, looking through the lens of soul-ful future. Am I not "here", constructing my world-life-view, a subjective experience of one's journey through the travails of the constant process expressed in the motion of life. Choices emerge and a colorful Self appears free from the confines of the material towards the eternity of the moment of lived-life in the present sentence.


It is a new unrestricted "present" that is being created by the philosophical endeavours of the mind to transcend the limitations of the past towards a Will-to-identity that has sustenance that no one can see. It is idealism of the Self that comes alive, ever so lively to find the "other" who questions its own isolation and subjectivity. It is our existential choice to live life to the fullest... is this not "motion"?

What is motion?

An eternal movement from a beginning to an endless end...


to see how my identity continuously moves towards a something, undefinable as the tomorrow that exists. We are what we are by nature of fixed laws that makes us who we are - our determinate selves. No matter what the end, we continuously strive towards the asymptotic line, of lived life in this world of material-phenomenal appearance. To move beyond the eternity of the moment towards the next, more identifiable future.


The goal of continuously living the moment of existence content of the material plenitude of simplicity. To be at one with the goal towards the Will to identify with the Self that has not emerged from jaws of the present.


We continuously strive to recreate ourselves to be a Self with a "Will-to-identity", a place in which the "formal" self appears to the phenomenal experience of "the other".


The emergence of philosophy begins with an unquenchable goal of understanding the Self in relation to the motion of the world that appears to the senses. (How does the Self identify with what exists outside of itself?) To relate to the world of appearance, the material-phenomenal world, from the stand point of the Self, is to understand what relation there is between philosophy as world-life-view and everything else.


---


We emerge to "the other" through the medium of the pen that writes the words of truth - existence as isolation. To hear the music of life pass by the eyes of the believer in a world beyond what the sense can see... "Here... I exist."


Does not philosophy exist for the purpose of recreating the revelatory experience of life in pure wonder? A message from a distant soul to another as simple as understanding the present reflection of the moment of truth.


The Self reaches out in the written language to identify with a life that is lived beyond the world of phenomenal appearance towards a world of the mind. Is it here that all communication takes place and where philosophy begins in "identity". Who am I, but a soul that lives in the duality of lived life. The space of the phenomenal world and that of the Mind or intellect. It is complete in itself. However, motion dictates the need for the Self to survive in the material-phenomenal world. The Self, must Will itself to being sufficient beyond the present circumstance. Are we not here to recollect and discuss the world of philosophy, beyond what others can perceive. In motion, we question the very nature of the distinction  between realism and idealism - towards understanding the subjectivity of one's own consciousness. The elusiveness of objectivity... consumed in its own self experience of questioning the "other".


---


Who am I? Am I not a Self, distinct in the world, beyond what the "other" perceives. What makes my identity real, in this world of appearance? Is it not "character" that we are looking for? an existential truth to the lived-life of choices?


I am like a drop of water in the river of life... constantly in motion, eternally waiting for the moment of truth, where lived philosophy meets the "other" who reflects the flow of time. Are you in motion beyond the phenomenal towards the truth that is "this world"?


Philosophical reflections on motion...
