Philosophical Speculations

I feel it's a good sign to be having a complex reaction to Rudolf Steiner. I certainly do as well. But it sounds like you have a sense of the topics that you connect to, so, yeah, just keep chasing those and paying attention to your heart. Lots of rich material in them there hills

This was great! Mind if I ask a few clarifying questions?

BK often states that when/If a person has the experience of be-ing that is stripped of all inner and outer 'ripples', they are identified with MaL. And then he will often say if two people are having this experience it is a shared reality rather than two subjectively confined experiences. To me it s...

She giggled when she read for the 108th time Bernardo state that it is laughable when modern neo-Darwinists claim evolution is caused by random mutations.

A study into sweet Cleric's mode of thinking: I had just given over five examples of explicating an insight. Cleric said that I claimed explication is impossible. Then after I pointed out that this is a horrid reading, Cleric said: "I'm not twisting anything but only pointing at the root cause....

Yes, have you noticed the way some conversation in this group go back and forth with people asking questions and being curious and sharing stories and ideas thoughtfully and humbly.

After I pointed out that he was simple wrong in claiming I don't believe insights can be expicated, he said that he and I have a different way of understanding the idea of 'explication.' Okay, for those of yo...

"I'm not twisting anything but only pointing at the root cause." Oh, I see. I said that we necessarily do explicate insights and you wanted to make it clear that I said the opposite because of a 'root cause.' Trust me, Soul deeply respects what you are doing. Whereas I can't even get past ...

How many people know somebody (or many people) who can reliably look at a seed and observe it's 'life body,' 'aura,' or 'etheric body' (basically any term that the individual uses to point to the objective perception they have)? I'm not so much asking about people who have spontaneously and randomly...

Cleric, I simply can't let a presupposition that is so off go by. I'll need to slow you down because when you say: "Y et where neither I, nor Steiner agree is that this 'insight' is inexplicable..." I'm sorry but I can't let this move take place. Steiner explicated it. I've now given sever...
