Current mood: Open <|;^)) The Universe & Religion
(Philosophy written by Martin Eden on 19 June 2009)

I can’t see the beginning
But I can hear it
The radio wave
Reduced to static
In the here and now
That all pervasive background static
Detracting from clarity
That’s how I see religion

SEEMINGLY
(Philosophy written by Martin Eden 23March2009)

Dez De Mona was a man who thought/felt the universe was a little unkind. He never knew his parents though he had spent much time with them.

They (his parents) expected much of him, though their egos stood in their way. They never seemed to claim his life though they craved his time.

The institutions he’d been passed on to came up wanting. The organizations and groups thereafter weren’t much better, though he participated with fervour. It seems that his nature looks in on the crowd.

Those people he knew have come and gone, and he now prefers the company of birds. Yet he still has faith beneath the surface.

And there he was now although he is here, minding the shop for those who would care as he filters through to life what he has time to reflect.

And the wars that have raged still live on in the haze which is reason enough. And the man in the street has walked back to the country where he was once enslaved.

So where do I go to and where do I start remain questions of distraction which knows its own origin. It’s time to know better and that it is so is enough for progress unfold.

Yet the dreams that he had he now distances from for fear of being happy, for as dreams manifest they run to excess in a world not given to peace.

So what may you say is the meaning of life but its answer in disguise. And on the threshold you stand with banner in hand wanting revenge for the time you’ve wasted.

Still he comes to the fore, Dez De Mona in store, for he knows that he’s not yet finished.

(… and the balloons fly over in their god-given way. And who is God anyway?)

Existentialism

FOR OPENERS

Martin Eden haz had enuff of pushin d rock up d hill repeatedly to overcome d nuffingness of existence (i.e. existentialism), n haz chosen 2 have a choc wedge instead!!!

Mood: Went from ?naughty? to ?smart? to ?amused?

THEN A DAY LATER

Martin Eden iz leaning against d rock of existentialism basking in d sun of essence!!!

Mood: vital

OK, SO THIS IS THE WAY I SEE IT …

meaning is awareness
and awareness is meaning
essence is a kind of presence in the ?all?
existence is a past tense reflection on the process proceeding from essence which i call vital, or vitality
vitality comes from awareness, and awareness is meaning
awareness individuates from what is already joined in the ethereal which is vacuum that matter seeks to fill
but the vacuum grows as the distance between matter increases
the ?ether?, or ethereal, is the relationship between matter and vacuum
now it is important here to remember and restate that ?meaning is awareness and awareness is meaning?
and now we can go on to state that the ?relativity? of the two (matter and vacuum) is inherent in the variety and strength levels of the whole gamut of essence
it is also in a constant state of flux
existence is circular and historic
essence is linear and eternal, it is essentially ?inconsistent change?
consistent change leads to atrophy, death if you like
the meaning is in the question
essence is not about the approval of others, while existence invites it

Mood: amused
