S&UP
to be
As from darkness then to light, as from nothingness continuity, from non-existing lasting night, Divine Awareness. Anon
Philosophy is the science of theory in the absence of empirical evidence. It is fiction disguised as sustenance for the mind while doing nothing to feed the body beyond that of the Philosopher, if even that. If it were worthy of the words proclaimed and it worked, we would all be of the same mind. That’s why S&UP is in the fiction category and will remain so. None of this should be taken as universal truths, no one knows the true nature of the universe we reside within, and no one possesses the wit to claim otherwise for another.
I was born, and this is what I am. Achilles
Your world is your world and my world is my world, your words are your words and my words are my words. My world resides within a natural universe where Nature is objective and favors no one. These words are ephemeral and serve only my world; they need have no merit whatsoever in yours. The many forms of philosophic analogy are entertaining; they don’t bring salt to my table or yield a single egg.
In my world, Nature offers no apologies and makes no confessions. I am here at Her behest, Mother to us all, and to the gods. All life is sacred since to be alive is awareness of one’s own existence, and awareness IS the divine.
We might never evolve beyond that of all living things, a struggle for survival and consequent violence to obtain the resources needed for that survival. We will continue to evolve and will eventually meet with extinction, as all living things will do. Awareness is no less divine and life no less sacred.
Yes!
I had the same reaction Jennifer did. And loved the images.
