Re: This forum
This forum is exceedingly one-pointed (cultish) with a particular POV, and no other POV's are tolerated. I keep forgetting this - and keep making the same mistake of returning. This is on me . . . I now sense I have achieved escape velocity . . . That is exactly what it is. And moreover, if we look...

Re: This forum
Lorenzo, please take note: in my message, I stated: 1. verifiable facts 2. my opinion that the lack of expressed engagement with the object of Cleric's and Ashvin's "countless" posts - that is, living thinking - signals that one is not interested in living thinking, when this goes on for ...

Re: Essay: Retracing Spiritual Activity (Part IV)
I already added some sentences to these concluding paragraphs, see if this makes it any clearer (edited back into the original post, beginning with "the sensory landscape"). Yes it does, and the other comments too. Only this: By intensely focusing our concepts as testimonies to the proces...

Re: Essay: Retracing Spiritual Activity (Part IV)
Thanks for another brilliant and rich installment, Ashvin. I will add a few personal comments. These are essentially about the choices of narrative flow, not about substance. The one slightly more substantial question I have is about the choice to present a conceptualization of imaginative cognitio...

Re: This forum
Of course, there are quite different individualities here, but how this is relevant to the question I asked, I fail to see. And I thought it was agreed that, in what you and Cleric attempt to convey, there are indeed clear facts to understand and integrate. Besides, Ashvin, you have often warned pe...

Re: This forum
And I thought it was agreed that, in what you and Cleric attempt to convey, there are indeed clear facts to understand and integrate. Sorry, this part was pretty clear. The facts on this inner path are ones that cut across everything we have been conditioned to think about 'how reality works', 'wha...

Essay: Retracing Spiritual Activity (Part IV)
It is no shocking revelation to anyone paying attention that humanity has become alienated from Nature and the Cosmos to the greatest possible extent in modern times. That is because the thoughts through which we perceive and think about the World are not felt to be a concrete part of that same Worl...

Re: This forum
To Cleric and Ashvin: As I read Cleric's last reply to Lorenzo, as well as Ashvin's last reply to Anthony, it strucks me that the entire series of countless attempts, a series that tends to infinity to the naked eye, has an unbroken history of falling on deaf ears, and to this day it continues to f...

Re: Symbolic thinking, Anthroposophy and Transhumanism
Cleric, Sorry for the delay in replying - I've had successive overseas trips. Of course any response to what is meant by particular words in the bible has to be prefixed with the question of provenance. Critical scholars generally agree that few words in the gospel of John can be ascribed to Jesus....
