Philosophical Speculations

Yes.... but at the same time it's good that there seems to be a genuine question and interest. I'm sure you'll find the right response. Very true. Here is the response: *** Thanks for checking out the essays! It may also be helpful to keep the following response in mind when working through them. W...

Brilliant! You have nailed the balance between resonating with Marco's points and complementing them with the appropriate adjacents thoughts. And thank you for bringing Cleric's essays to Substack, that's a masterstroke! :D Thanks for the feedback! Well, he said he would take a look at them, but......

Oh :) Glad there is something of interest to you in this and thanks for taking it to the comment section. Large question, difficult to answer in short, and perhaps the "multi-perspectival vision" in the reply, "a completely new way of seeing comprehensively/integrally that does not n...

Who or what is the Lord in your polytheistic universe? As a sort of quick and dirty phenomenological approach to this question, one could start by experiencing their current linear sequence of thoughts.

On the question of understanding what life is, I would like to signal the work of physicist Marco Masi - curiosuly, he is registered as member of this forum - that seems to have much in common with the vision Cleric has delineated in this thread, commenting on the work of Michael Levin. Thanks for ...

Ashvin, really… What I am saying is simple to see and relate to. I can and should accept the full spectrum of invitations pressing on us in earthly life, to responsibly probe reality in the face of the unknown (all the quotes from my posts you have thrown in). In a sense, it’s the very goal of eart...

Ashvin, Perhaps “consecration” isn’t the best word. Nonetheless, it’s the word you have chosen here again. Since, for my part, I merely quoted your (continued) use of it, I understand your remark as a commentary to yourself. Besides, I have barely enough endurance to add that I don’t drink the hot ...

It looks like this is another case when I have not been able to express myself clearly, Ashvin. One thing is to trust the Masters and follow their recommendations and exercises, like in the example of hot water. Even if I don't clearly understand the ways in which the hot water works positively in ...
