The reigning “champ” of philosophy is the one who knows how to construct “good arguments.” That means they are valid, sound, and based on true premises. This cowboy (or girl) does not contradict themself and knows how to argue. However, to know how to argue, one must also know how not to argue. Here, we enter what this article is about.
The sentiment “everything is going to be okay” is a hidden profundity on the prospect of eternity. This “okayness”-quality to existence might carry with it a certain wishy-washy notion that most people might find almost deterring.
This writing is actually from the original version of The Zero Principle, which was meant to be the primary book on mysticism from me. I later decided to expand on it because let’s face it, I did not know what I was talking about, as you will see. This is not to be taken seriously, but as entertainment. It’s only trying to express, not argue. Anyway, grab a beverage and enjoy, as this is a long one.
I have recently taken to reading and listening to Carl Gustav Jung, a man of exemplary stature in psychology. He not only wrote more in his lifetime than most dream of, but he put into practice what he preached: the uncovering of the human psyche.
Whenever I think I have something important to say and find the words to say it, it seems to come out as sanctimonious, naïve dogshit without actual substance. How else am I supposed to say: “You are the universe, but if you don’t wake up and realize that, you’ll be miserable”?
The following is just a short description of a larger thing I’m working on for my book. It’s not supposed to be serious. That is in the very nature of all shows or plays. It’s an intuition, and analogous description of a certain state of affairs, that might or might not be true. The postscript section will contain further information to check out.
I recently came across something that might as well be the pinnacle of the last seven or so years in the quest for material for my book project. A friend pointed out to me a branch of philosophy that I never knew existed. But the funny thing is that the subject material found in this philosophy is not entirely new to me. It’s called Perennial Philosophy.
This article tells a story about my experiences with the GNU Emacs text editor. Now, mind the rough or lacking edges, as I am not a programmer. This thing is told entirely from perspective of a non-technical (all right, maybe semi-technical) user. More specifically, from the point of view of general writing and productivity.
In the state of knowledge, or “identity-awareness”, the content of remembrance or original Self is hindered by the subject’s perception. The sensory-experiential field and awareness of the subject, if enabled to permutate through a period of self-reflection after the content without any temporal presence or measurement of time is in effect, the subject has misplaced the regurgitation of experiences to sensory input.
