Honestly, one of the reasons Deleuze appeals to me so much is that he expresses that thing my mind does. The rhizomatic schizoanalytic approach is literally just how I think, which... probably says something about me.SanteriSatama wrote: ↑Sun Jul 04, 2021 11:31 pm Am I deluded, or are you doing there Deleuze rather masterfully? Reading so well that you internalize the method and can apply it creatively is what I call loyalty to the text.

Re: Seeing the truth is not conductive to survival
Hey, if I were inclined to go with a gender specific personification of emptifullness, I might go with 'she' as well, although in keeping with Lao Tzu's aphorism 'true words seem paradoxical', I prefer to make up compound neologisms—albeit any name that can be named feels woefully inadequate.DandelionSoul wrote: ↑Sun Jul 04, 2021 9:57 pmOutside of her dreams, God knows nothing because there's nothing to know, but in her dreams, every so often she realizes that she's dreaming.
Here out of instinct or grace we seek
soulmates in these galleries of hieroglyph and glass,
where mutual longings and sufferings of love
are laid bare in transfigured exhibition of our hearts,
we who crave deep secrets and mysteries,
as elusive as the avatars of our dreams.

Re: Seeing the truth is not conductive to survival
As the language freak simpleton I would be inclined to call emptifullness Spirit, as breathing empties and fills. Goddess in whom we are dreamed and feel, well, Goddess.Soul_of_Shu wrote: ↑Mon Jul 05, 2021 10:38 amHey, if I were inclined to go with a gender specific personification of emptifullness, I might go with 'she' as well, although in keeping with Lao Tzu's aphorism 'true words seem paradoxical', I prefer to make up compound neologisms—albeit any name that can be named feels woefully inadequate.DandelionSoul wrote: ↑Sun Jul 04, 2021 9:57 pmOutside of her dreams, God knows nothing because there's nothing to know, but in her dreams, every so often she realizes that she's dreaming.

Re: Seeing the truth is not conductive to survival
If Spirit spears it for you, go with that transfixation ... Relevant too is that betwixt the emptying and filling is the stillpoint that T S Elliot references in his masterpiece ... not to mention that according to the gospel of Thomas 'It is a movement and a rest.'SanteriSatama wrote: ↑Mon Jul 05, 2021 11:02 amAs the language freak simpleton I would be inclined to call emptifullness Spirit, as breathing empties and fills ...

Re: Seeing the truth is not conductive to survival
Yes, the rests at extremes are relevant, but have you tried stillpoint in the middle, trying to guess which way breathing continues after a middle pause?Soul_of_Shu wrote: ↑Mon Jul 05, 2021 11:25 amIf Spirit spears it for you, go with that transfixation ...

Nope, can't say that I have, not being one for meditative breath attention. Does it go something like this?SanteriSatama wrote: ↑Mon Jul 05, 2021 12:55 pmYes, the rests at extremes are relevant, but have you tried stillpoint in the middle, trying to guess which way breathing continues after a middle pause?
