Berkeley revealed... "a thank you"

"Pristine"...

As the self encounters the being of "the other", the path towards the light of the world-to-come, unfolds in the present-ness of the moment. However brief, the self crosses paths with "the other", as a thou-of-life. The revelations of the world reflect upon the phenomena, as "art" manifests itself in the environment of creativity.

As the oneness of the universe envelops the individual souls, beauty appears in the many modalities, a fullness of expression. For once, a spiritual being transcending the limitations of existence for a being not as an "I" but as a "we" of the community of expressive souls. The wonders, the fireworks going off in the distant, signalling a synchronicity, makes itself known again in a more lucid manner.

Infinite wisdom and the nature of "the other" open for dialogue - the process of getting to know the All of life-living, one moment at a time. The new-ness that seems all so familiar, the encountering of Platon-ic friendships - existence of a vibrant world...

"enchanted"

as the rhythms begin to take hold of the soul of the individuals, the "music" manifests itself in the nature of the created environment - an emanation of light. The objective world becomes a meeting place where individual subjectivities learn to transcend the isolation of the mind. Spirit and identities emerge!

"Nature-ality of being", smells the aroma of the rose for the experience of grounding. The self realizes the "moment", enveloped  by the beauty of nature. A quiet "thank you", a praise to the holy of holies for making a reality known to the soul who finds "the other" on a journey of uniqueness. Majestic and vibrant, a future encounter awaits, as the spiritual domains open up with the liberality of phenomena.

The cycle of the week comes to a close, a resting place for the soul that yearns for the divine. Are we not spiritual beings having the human experience, as the new day begins? The "World-Soul" makes itself known to the "we" of the life-time of experience.

"Thank you, again"

dialogue

Nature and the representation to the senses (the empirical world), presents a picture of reality in its totality manifested to the self's subjectivity. This picture is like an eternal river flowing - at times rapid and chaotic, at other times peaceful and serene. As inhabitants (as creatures) with the innate ability to consciously understand and know our place in the river, view nature from the perspective of a single drop of water. The ever changing continuum appears to the conscious self as a process for growth and understanding. "I am", as the self emerges from a nothingness towards the All of life-living.

Past and future converge for a moment of awareness sacred and holy, a subtle existence as a being conscious of its ability to apprehend. The river of life, at times can be comprehended from the perspective of the self, viewing its world as a manifestation of its subjectivity (phenomena), and at other times as objective nature without the view towards any single perspective. Between these two lenses emerges the purpose and telos - the unification of these two views - to systematically and artistically represent the process in its life-living - an aesthetic practice - a choice/duty to transcend and go beyond the confines of the darkness for the light of rationality and pure identity.

The nothingness of the self parallels the isolation of the self from the world of nature as a mind and intellect living as a being beyond what phenomenal appearance can transmit. Interpretation is the becoming of the self as a being in its artistic authenticity.

The self beckons the other by asking the question of identity: "where are you"? 

The thou of life emerges - "Here I am"!
