An Existential Portrayal of the Spirit

An Existential Portrayal of the Spirit

(In Other Words – Ideology)

Define the world as mineral, animal and spirit.

Mineral such as solid, liquid and gas.

Animal such as animated mechanical mineral.

Spirit, as in a metaphysical manipulation of the mineral.

Amino acidic protein formation animated the base forms of matter.

Solid, liquid and gas in an amorphous reaction of differentials of

Light and dark, hard and soft, hot and cold,

differentiated into a stratum.

Now this is an existential observation that can be translated -

into a spectrum.

The differential by analysis is mysterious.

The spectrum of elements is periodic but broken with elements that should be but are not.

These are found as elements that can be created but whose life span is periodically short.

Belay the mechanical consideration in lust for the metaphysical.

Imbued in the human experience is the spirit that motivates the mineral.

This animated mineral, amino acidic protein, differentiated into an evolved organism over eons of time. This highly evolved chemical machine speaks and has the capability to manipulate, not only its mineral form but also the other mineral and animal forms within its realm.

So thus you have animals such as humans that walk and talk and express ideas to influence and/or manipulate other mineral forms.

Curious enough is the amazement that mineral became animated, but that the result presented a metaphysical consciousness which looked back upon itself with observation.

“I am thinking therefore I am.”

One must consider that ideas are but vapor upon the wind.

Mineral speaks and records on paper and now other media its spirit or rather ideas.

If you erase the paper or memory, the ideas or ideology are lost.

Without remembrance or documentation by whatever media,

the mindset or ideology is lost.

Existential observation indicates that the instinct for survival exists in all species.

Pure and simple is the mineral/animal’s fight for life and with fierce carnality it fights to live.

“To be or not to be?”

Is this the spirit?

Consider the metaphysical manifestation of the will of the mineral?

Cast into space upon the wind, by screech and cry, by scream and whimper, on breath of air and by word.

The Differential

Light is. Darkness is the lack of light.

Hard is. Softness is the lack of hardness

Heat is, cold is the lack of heat.

Metaphysical Differential is not tangible.

It exists only by virtue of the spoken word.

Like vapor on the wind it is delicate and temporal.

Stated

Love vs. Hate

Joy vs. Grief

Right vs. Wrong

Justice vs. Injustice

Good vs. Bad

or rather

Good vs. Evil

These differentials do not exist physically they only exist metaphysically.

And in the scope of epochs of time it could evaporate in one simple

cataclysmic event that reduces the human race to dust.

The question is - like spring from the death of winter and

seed germinating from the ashes of fire,

would the metaphysical ideology or spirit emerge when there is no physical

documentation or memory to carry it forward.

Since Justice and its concept only exists in the human animal metaphysically as an idea,

would it again emerge from cataclysm.

Through trials and tribulations and evolution would the concept of

justice again emerge from the abyss like the animated mineral emerged?

We are physical stuff that moves by the virtue of the needs for survival like every animal.

The spirit is a vaporous word transmitted through the air from being to being.

However it conveys the entity from which it emerges.

Thus I am the mineral that speaks.

Thus you are.

And thus justice and justification for your right to life is defended by you, life and limb.

And the trial of your right to exist is held in the court of the theater of the world,

where your vaporous ideas are tested.

Salutations to Herman Hess

I hope to be laughed out of court.

Where Love is made

For this is where love is made.

For I have tried my children in the fire of infirmity; in the incomprehensible pain of the flesh.

They are left alone in the dark without guidance or light to see.

I must at my own anguish leave them alone to see, to see if they are of mine own sinew.

If they are of mine own, if they are of mine heart, they will surely, truly be kindred.

Love cannot be demanded only offered and it is only seen through longing.

In the midst of love it is squandered and taken for granted and thus it is only seen when lost.

For in the differential of having and not having is the realization and true definition that gives love its deepest meaning.

Thus the reason for the universe and all existence is love and a God who incomprehensibly demanded it and went away in anguish for this tyrannical demand.

There can be no other way. You must lose to gain. You must die to live.

And, a God in heaven alone is the God of nothing.

You think this is without design, that all of existence just happened?

Look deep and you will see your want; your want to be, your want to go somewhere, your want to do something, your want rise above this earthly, fleshly, limited realm.

You want.

You want to reach someone, to tell someone, to hear someone, to be recognized by someone and to recognize someone.

And a God in heaven alone is the God of nothing.

While the frustration of your limited time, and your frustration with your limited ability and your frustration with others ability to understand your frustration, your reaching, your longing to do and accomplish and to aid and comfort and fix the ills of all is so sorrowfully misunderstood.

So this is where love is made, when you are dried up and all you strength is gone in your anguish to demand love. You came with all your heart to do that spirit that is in you, that thing that you are, this soul, this entity which is you, which is how you were made.

In the image of God were you made, that of Love, Hate, Joy, Grief, Fear, Jealousy and Grace and you are swimming in the void, in darkness hoping and thus you are kindred. For you are kindred and like God knowing God's want.

For a God in heaven alone is the God of nothing.

For this realm is truly designed. It is designed to find the lonely, the broken and the wanton heart that will cherish life even at the cost of its own, lest forever you are alone, lest forever you be alone.

And, love was nailed to a tree, not the tree of good and evil but of life.

Happiness

I came upon a couple of young cohorts’ of the zeitgeist mentality.

They were embroiled in a heated conversation of their frustration with their material situation. Basically they felt outside of the wealth and prosperity they see around them and were assured that the design of society was to keep them from reaching the brass ring and they themselves from being rich.

I listened knowing that at this point in the conversation I could not get the 'proverbial word' in edgewise. I made a little squeaking sound and they said, “What is that?” I said the cliché, “It is a word trying to get in edgewise.”

I then said, “What is Happiness,” and I reminded them of the ‘Declaration of Independence’ which states the equality of men and the right to the pursuit of happiness. I then ask them to define happiness.

They pondered for a moment as I goaded them with my favorite spiel which is as I stated first rapidly, “Love, Hate, Joy, Grief, Fear, Jealousy and Grace.” They said, “What?” So I repeated, “Love, Hate, Joy, Grief, Fear, Jealousy and Grace,” and I iterated, “I’m happy when I love, have Joy and Grace and I’m dismayed when I hate have grief or fear or jealousy.

And I continued which is hard to do when a sage is trying to get into the minds of the young. I said, “Let’s start with jealousy.” I started with jealousy because that is what I could hear so pronounced in their conversation.” I said, “The primary needs of the human animal are, food, shelter and clothing.” This is grade school social studies education which is often overlooked because it is not really put into context.

I continued with Socratic dialog, “Do you have Food?” They said, “Yes but cheap stuff not that of the rich, like expensive steak and lobster.” To which I rolled my eyes and admonished them to continue to listen. I said, “Do you have shelter?” One of them still lived at home with his parents and the other had an apartment. The one with the apartment acknowledge that he had a crummy little apartment. I continued with, “And, you both look like you have clothes and are quite well dressed.” They agreed.

I said, “So you have all of the basic necessities which if you did not have these I would account that with unhappiness. But since you have these I should say you are happy that you are not poor.” Of course this did not please them.

They started in with a malaise of the ‘oppression by the rich’ and ‘their long hours and low pay’ and again I made a squeaking sound trying to break in, “Let me continue.” It is hard to get them to stop the speech center in the brain that flows endlessly.

Now I did a little inventory of their possessions again with Socratic questioning and discovered for them their many things which in this day are so common. They had cars and televisions and stereos and cell phones and video games. They bought fast food and power drinks and spent money at entertainment clubs, but considered themselves oppressed by the rich and they were wonton.

Again fighting to get them to listen, I raised my voice, “Do all those things you have bring you Joy?” They mumbled, “Sort of, but those are just toys; it is not what we really want.”

I seized on the moment, “What is it you really want; what is it that will really make you happy.” They went on with a list of bigger and better stuff and of course higher pay.”

I had them where I wanted them, “You have graduated form school and you have read history and the struggles of the past, but you learned nothing, and if you do not place yourself into history and struggle, you will never understand and for this reason I will place you as spoiled, jealous children pampered with toys and this is no ones doing but your own with one exception…, The world teaches you megalomania.

They said, “What?” I said, “You are a ‘nobody’ unless you are a ‘somebody’ and you are jealous and filled with hate and grief and rather than saving your money and educating yourself you spend it all on toys and frivolous times and you do nothing productive to enhance your position, if even that, in some way, will make you happy. You are beset with competition and struggle to grasp the proverbial ‘Brass Ring’ and if you got it, would you then be happy?”

I stated again, “Love, Hate, Joy, Grief, Fear, Jealousy and Grace. You are filled with, Hate, Grief and Fear. You hate your so called oppression, you are jealous over the possessions of others and you fear you will never have what they have. As a result you miss out on Love and Joy and Grace which you can find everyday if you would so choose.”

I added, “History is wasted on you and as of yet you have learned nothing.”

They started in on me, “What about you, you seem to have the so called toys that we have, are you not the same as us?” To which I said, “No, I, not like you, have happiness. I savor what you may call my mediocre existence and account myself rich compared to poverty and with my age and experience, I have won and lost and won again, which you my young friends will do also and thus is the beauty of the differential.”

To this again they said, “What?”

I said, “You can tell a child that the frying pan is hot and to not touch it, but until the child is burned it will not know. I cannot give you happiness, you must find it yourself. I cannot make you feel the suffering of others or have you put on the mantle of that which is taught by history. Blessed is the child that upon hearing the teachings of the father, do his instruction without being burned. I only hope for you that I have pointed the way.”

And there was silence.

Eternal

A young confidant said to me, “I find the idea of everlasting life absurd in that he would be bored with everything being the same and there would be nothing more to do.” I responded, “Interesting, perhaps ignorance is then bliss, that continuance is best served by the new born, yet unfettered mind?, for if you continue too long you are not impressed with the value of your existence?”

He said, “Logically, if all things were accomplished, he would rather not be than to continue in eternal monotony.” I responded, “Thus is the error of finite thinking that resolves itself to conclusion that eternal life has limitations.”

And now a consideration of relativity as in Einstein’s consideration of time, absolute zero is impossible. This means that for all eternity to pass in zero time would equate to non existence, thus eternity is just that, “eternal.” The progression through time is relative to the observer’s velocity, but velocity relative to what?

Consider Descartes’ existential proof, “I am thinking, therefore I am.” Extended in an objective consideration, “We are thinking, therefore we are.” Thus non existence is disproved, albeit only temporally over the course of recorded history.

Duration or time is only relative to memory, and everlasting life only has meaning if finite life is remembered and thus the differential. You could not know the eternal unless you first know the finite; or rather you must die to live. It can be no other way.

To assume that you understand and have conclusion in your finite realm and thinking only shows your simple limitations.

Understanding

Understanding

I understand

I see, I know, I capitulate

Knowing

Knowing what?

Knowing a fact.

Is your knowing Objective or Subjective?

Singular understanding.

You perceive something to be fact.

This is your singular subjective observation.

Plural understanding.

You and others agree on a fact.

Is that then Objective?

We understand?

I see the man is dead.

We see the man is dead.

Therefore the man must be dead.

But,

I love.

You say you love.

I cannot feel what you feel.

Therefore I doubt.

I only know that I love,

And your love must be proved.

A God in heaven alone is the God of nothing.

Don't

Don’t

Don’t think in finite terms.

Don’t think that people do not change.

Don’t think that governments cannot be changed.

Don’t think you know it all.

Don’t think that everyone is like you.

Don’t think that people should think like you.

Don’t assume that people are good.

Don’t assume that science is proved.

Don’t presume a finite realm.

What is right today as history has shown, it is a best guess in the realm of the unknown.

So Don’t be surprised if you were wrong.

The Oedipus Animal

Oedipus  Greek: Οἰδίπους Oidípous meaning ("swollen foot") was a mythical Greek king of Thebes. He fulfilled a prophecy that said he would kill his father and marry his mother, and thus brought disaster on his city and family. This legend has been retold in many versions, and was used by Sigmund Freud to name the Oedipus complex.

Human sexuality as proved is an amorphous existential observation of a true differential that plots on a hysteretic bell curve that plots to the natural logarithm of what is normal.

There is no possibility that you understood what I just said. So look below.

Hermaphrodite

In biology, a hermaphrodite is an organism that has reproductive organs normally associated with both male and female sexes.

Homosexuality is romantic or sexual attraction or behavior between members of the same sex or gender. As a sexual orientation, homosexuality refers to "an enduring pattern of or disposition to experience sexual, affectionate, or romantic attractions" primarily or exclusively to people of the same sex.

Heterosexuality is romantic or sexual attraction or behavior between persons of opposite sex or gender in the gender binary. As a sexual orientation, heterosexuality refers to "an enduring pattern of or disposition to experience sexual, affectional, physical or romantic attractions to persons of the opposite sex."

This is a natural log rhythm of hysteresis which is an observed phenomenon derived from practical measurements and mathematical theory.

Statistically heterosexuals occupy the majority of the curve and hermaphrodites and homosexuals are on the outside of the curve. Thus societal acceptance of sexual norms follows the indicated arithmetic if one considers majority statistics indicative and suggestive of what is normal.

Psychosexual infantilism - Psycho-logic defense – Dénouement by Sigmund Freud can be countered by mere simplicity of thought.

Children are effervescent and quiescently blind. They bloom from the darkness of a void of knowledge and become. They respond to their new body that responds to the differentials of hard, soft, light, dark, warm, cold and delight, pain. They cry when discontent and coo when happy.

Instinctually they respond to a physical compulsion of genital stimulation with no rationality and with no emotional connection except self-adulation and these are considered natural. It is no different than nursing on the breast. It involves no learned behavior or permission. It is pre-cognitive.

Procreation would not occur without fornication between male and female, except that in the modern scientific age this is no longer necessary. Now consider beyond the mathematical bell curve, and consider sexuality beyond the purpose of procreation.

The Absurdity of the mechanism of the Orgasm.

Shrouded in the framework of the Human Psyche is a physiological point of ecstasy. Mysteriously planted in our realm and perhaps in the realm of all other species is a psychological / physiological juxtaposition called the orgasm? What does this mean?

Certain physical actions and stimulations and certain thoughts or mental excitations in the metaphysical (thought world) cognition (thinking) causes the orgasm. It requires mental arousal in image and imagination in conjunction with physical stimulation to produce the orgasm.

Children hide their Sexuality.

Instinctually children hide. How is it that they know, not shame but discernment of disclosing their titillation, their excitation and their naked exposure? They feel no quilt but hide their secret.

Brutalization by association.

If you are not like me you are not acceptable.

Again the Existential Absurdity of the Orgasm.

Proved is the biochemical hormonal function of testosterone on the sexual libido of both male and female. Don’t argue this, if you have doubt look it up.

And the King would allow only Eunuchs (castrated males) to serve the Queen.

You cannot describe color to the colorblind; nor sight to the unsighted, or even sound to the deaf, and no mortal can describe the compulsion for the orgasm and children hide their most secret discernment.

The only animal that wears clothes is the human animal. Prolific are the religious scriptures pertaining to nakedness and the insinuation of the shame of your nakedness.

Children as toddlers have no inclination of shame. Quickly, by their parent’s instruction, they are taught to cover and thus we hide our most secret discernment.

And thus we harbor our most critical judgment. Are you chaste (pure, innocent, uncorrupted, virtuous, honorable, and unsullied?)

One might consider that the circumcision of the male is the religious and furthermost extension of naked shame. It calls you to rise above your animal instinct, reconcile the compulsion of the orgasm with responsibility and think about the consequences of your actions. One might consider the Jewish law of circumcision on the eighth day. A child is given no choice, but it is done to them. You will know your shame and we have cut you a priori.

In Judaic Law only is the continuation of the circumcision by law, requiring chastity, condemning infidelity and extramarital fornication.

The Unbridled Libido

Hedonism suggests animal disregard. Fornicating without regard to the connection between the orgasm and procreation is pure animal ignorance. Humans without limits breed without limits and without limits in a finite resource such as the earth; the only control is the natural collapse of the system.

There is no defense against the all powerful orgasm without law and education. You will have to watch the suffering on scales you cannot imagine.

The Oedipus Animal

Well known is the fact that the male animal sire, such as that in cats and dogs, wolves and lions will kill the young males and eat them. It is assumed that they are eliminating their possible sexual competition. It would stand to reason that if a male animal survived, thanks to its mother’s protection, that he would be endeared to his mother and come into competition with his father; perhaps not over the mother alone, but for all the females. Existential scientific observation bears out this truth.

The Nurturing Father

Not uncommon in all species is the male that assumes the female role in nurturing the young, both the male and female offspring; this is especially true in the human animal since there is no record of fathers killing sons for fear of competition. Placing the human male as a villain by generalization has no statistical foundation. It cannot even be placed on the bell curve because factual documentation can find no incident of the Oedipus Complex in reality. It only exists in mythology. After adolescence the male is nurtured by the fathers adoration to guard and protect and instruct the male child as to the nature, strength and toughness that is extraordinarily required of him. These are isolation, suppression of weak emotions, endurance and competition. This is done by a nurturing father to build strength in his son for protection and confidence building.

Thus the Oedipus Complex as to the male child in competition for the mothers affection should be laid to rest as a fallacy so rare that it cannot fit in to any statistical model.

Again the Oedipus Animal

The world is in danger of overpopulation due only to the hormonal compulsion for the orgasm. Copulation as freewill renders us powerless. Rendering the female with unwanted child and worse of all, abandoned for she has no means to support the offspring.

The only peril

A society that cannot control blatant ignorant copulation and unbridled population growth will surely perish.

Simple Answer

Require Legitimacy and Responsibility.

Provide Free birth control

Provide Free Tubal Ligation's and Vasectomies.

Allow early intervention with RU486

Preserve a woman’s choice.

Hold both parents accountable financially.

Teach abstinence, responsibility, love and respect for the child.

If you are looking for a point at which the soul enters the body, consider this from the Hebrew Genesis 7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

One might consider that the first breath of the infant is the entry of the soul and it awakes to life and becomes an autonomous entity.    

Rendering Compassion

Rendering Compassion; perhaps distilling your care.

How do I know if my concern has been usurped, am I a fool and when do I discern?

Mine own heart is stopped at this consideration by the very charge that is presented before us. In the tempest of destruction, whom do you chose to save? I choose all who cry out, and I reach out to raise them up in want of my very soul for I assume they are of kindred kind and I so wanted to save them, and then they devoured me in deception.

How can one discern? How can one know? Know only your honesty to yourself.

The Adoration of Kindness

One might say that grace is the ultimate state of being rising above the noise of discontent. But then discontent stems from want, the want to be nourished, the want to be sheltered from the many harms of our physical existence.

Intelligence can artfully dance upon the sea of our material world. We ogle the masters of the ‘Glass Bead Game’ rendering our service to their wisdom and the very shares of our labor to buy the luxury that can distance us momentarily from our discontent.

Ideologically we way in the balance our governance of right and wrong and by discourse defend our means or wage or right to be. Under freedom and democratic argument we determine our justification of the classes from poor to bourgeois to opulent or even megalomania.

One might consider that a beggar on the street that refuses to work, with the exception of mental illness, is a tyrant allowing your children to labor in their stead to provide for their needs and wants. Could this mean that charity in this case is miss-given? Thus many pass by a vagabond with a sign, “Will Work for Food,” unless they will really work for food. Some just succumb and think, “If you are so low that you need to be on the street with a sign, you are truly needy.” They render up a bill or two and feel they have done charities’ call.

So as you meander through this incomprehensible realm look deep into the eyes of your fellows, discerning each individual by the best of your judgment and render grace and kindness where it is due, even unto your adversary when found in need and he will no longer be your adversary.

Now the world is contrary to this with its brutal economic competition until there is devastation, then wonders never cease as the kind come forth to give all that they have.

We are at our best when we are broken and don’t you adore when someone is kind.

For I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

Contrition

Contrition, contrite, repentance, remorse, regret, sorrow, sorry, penitent, apologetic.

Grace, forgiveness, elegance, refinement, loveliness, polish, beauty, poise, charm.

The order of terms suggests that you cannot have the latter without first being broken.

And thus the necessity of the differential, without it there is no meaning.

Ignorance proceeds wisdom and even God cannot prevent this existential truth.

We weep for our children knowing the path to knowledge is suffrage.

Would that you could tell them but they will not listen until burned.

The world is an incorrigible child not yet contrite. Oh the sorrow!
