∞ “Evolutionary time is directly proportional to cohort size. A million years for a cohort of a few thousands of ambient animals is an entirely different quantity and order of time than the same span for a species whose ambient population is in the millions or billions. Consider then, your own body. How much ‘time’ is ‘one hour’ for a cohort of ~400 trillion cells, for whom which one second may be relatively equivalent to an hour or a day? More evolutionary time happens in your own body in one year than our modern way of thinking believes to have happened in the entire history of life on Earth for precisely this reason. Time is related to cohort size — in more ways than seven. And modern human activity is wiping out the living place and creature cohorts in which evolutionary time exists — and replacing them. With ‘farms’, poison, machines, and ‘dead time’.”

∞ I have long been aware that relationships ‘are orbital’ in nature. And in Nature. One of the old astronomers named his dog satellite; and the moniker was apt in more than 5 dimensions.

It is said that if the Sun were to instantly disappear, there would be an 8-minute ‘grace period’ that would represent the light-cone distance between Earth and Sol. During this period, we would be unaware of the transformation. Indeed, for 8 minutes, ‘the sun would still be present to us in all effects and appearances’.

Consider this matter deeply. It is far more provocative than it superficially appears. Especially as it may relate to all that we encompass with the ideas associated with both identity and »memory.

I was reflecting upon this earlier, when I realized that there would be a shockwave-like effect from the release of orbital bonding between Sol and the Earth if the sun were to disappear.

At the event boundary, there would be a displacement shock as what had previously been terrestrial orbital unity suddenly collapsed into free travel. The results, at least for organisms on Earth, would be immediately apocalyptic.

And as I followed this train of though it occurred to me the ‘heartbreak’ as experienced by human souls and hearts, is analogous to this figure and its processes. The sudden loss of ‘orbital unity’ may result in a brief ‘grace period’ until ‘ the forces reach us directly ’. At this point, there is shock, catastrophe, displacement… a kind of inward apocalypse.

The Sun disappears. One of the local stars in our constellation, or maybe the central star… is gone. There is a grace period, depending on how close we are, and then shockwaves as the orbital link dissolves and we ‘spin off into free space’ once more.

And so to with falling in love; in all the different ways of it. It is, in every case, the acquisition of an orbital relationship. With stars and worlds, dreams and lives. Places, moments, and memories. A living map of constellations, in myriad forms and dimensions of being, relation, wonder, imagining, and anamnesis.

An anamnesis.

“Sometimes, when we come together, it isn’t so much what we choose to »do, but what we … sensuously, intelligently… creatively, »avoid… that produces the most astonishing and often beautiful results.”

∞ “Cares? Firstly, there are no organized collectives. At all. If you mean ‘the government’ doesn’t care, that’s probably true, but a false collective is intrinsically incapable of the human emotion of care. Remember that.

Millions of people care. But they have, as yet, failed to form anything resembling a body of mutual concern, intelligence and action. So, effectively, it is as if they are and feel isolated from their ability to truly understand (see into) and engage in agented action for true and intelligent purposes. They are fragmented. ‘We’ do not exist except as a convenience of arbitrary category or location. Or, as a pool of victims. Both positions are unintelligent, uninhabitable, and devastating to our humanity and minds.

The ‘passive spectator-victim’ is a role our fake culture has trained us to, but it has nothing to do with reality, our abilities or our potentials. In this case, however, ‘care’ will not resolve it. The hammer fell, and it will keep falling. Other hammers are coming. Other fires.

if there is hope, at all, it lies neither in complaint, outrage, fear or contagiously incoherent media exchange. It lies in the ability, the evolutionary gift and urgent necessity, of our species to form highly intelligent, active ‘pods’. Small groups that operate outside of culture and are capable of fielding action and solutions that exceed not only the expectable, but the imaginable.

Some day soon, we will see the explicit opposite of a terrorist cell. A small group of trained agents, absolutely committed to the recovery, discovery and fulfillment of our human origins, nature and potentials.

In a week, such a group could stage ‘actions of public intelligence’ so creative, shocking and profound — that they could change the course of nations. The predators in our false collectives are highly organized intelligence agencies. The citizens, so far, are their victims.

This will not last much longer. Because, in relatively short order, we will learn what it means to be active agents — learning and developing together… lives, minds and modes of communality… that are far beyond our fictions. And directly accessible, right now.

To any who shall agree. And act, in unison, for the history and future of life on Earth.”

∞ “Imagine the space that separates the letters on a page and notice it has a single unified shape, For the letters actually remove something from the unifying body and leave a single distinct shape varying on the page. Yes, we can count the letters, read them, even string them up into sentences, frame ideas with them and even pretend they can be the real and complete things… But will we ever be able to read the spaces, gaps, intervals and silences? how much do we really know about space, gaps, and separation?

Space is fundamentally open, granting various degrees of dimension and possibilities. A kind of intelligence that isn’t mechanical and in fact has no categorical class to even be classified under. Silence is also a kind of space. Changing depending on the spaces between words. and is as fundamentally important to speech as space is for even writing. In separation, one requires distance to be able to read it. And like consciousness, it will require some kind of outwards folding upon itself. But how does one get what one sees with far enough to be able to bend it upon itself?. Yet, we’ve done this before, ceaselessly as children.

If we view the landscape within the scenery we will see life at fast rates and speeds. Everything seeming immediate. But if we were to walk away perhaps even in two dimensions up into a mountain top. Our visual relationship with time will change drastically. The landscape below will seem unchanging or happening at much slower rates. This is perhaps how consciousness is and perhaps death.

Death being the ultimate distance from life, would be outside of time. Not that I assume a timeless position is possible but if it were, our access to death may be through those we know and that of our ancestors. Like a living tip existing at the edge of a long ancient stream of deaths and relationships, many factors the age of the universe.

Beautiful and impossible, our eyes are also a kind of space. Its body representing time, the iris representing earth and living beings and the pupil representing space, intelligence and even shockingly so… death. That constricting and dilating space that allows us to focus and adjust to varying flows of light, is in a sense also time, and the heart beat of an intelligence boundless and undifferentiated.”

∞ “When the gods disappeared, our minds began to shatter. Fictions couldn’t solve it, and neither could science. The crucial insight was an accident of interest. Someone realized that »we form minds in response to our senses of ‘who or what is watching us’ — and ‘why’.

Originally, the observer used to be the universe itself, alive —the sky, the sun… the mountains… the stars… the moon — and then it was, for a time, each other. But when it became machines and false collectives, dead authorities assembled of nothing more than empty language and possible indictment — the remaining potentials of human intelligence shattered, and began exploding into every domain of lived relation on Earth.

Someone finally realized we absolutely needed a beneficent observer, yet one who was also impartial.

The Benpartialists were, at first, an accident. No one realized that we needed interested, creative observers who could sustain a position that was unidentified with the chosen subject of topic or action. An experiment was eventually conducted by an exotic clade of common people actively interested in social engineering.

The first experiments were, of course, undocumented. But what we now know is simple, and astonishing: we cannot be or become intelligent in contexts where the observational ambiance is missing, counterfeited, fictional, mechanical, or otherwise abiorelational. And when we establish contexts in which it is not, prodigy and human superfunction blossom into immediate access and expression.

All this time, what we were missing was another form of ourselves, beneficently observing, caring for, and encouraging … the emergence and development of the human faculties for excellence in mutual endeavor and concern. We needed a holy witness. And now, we each practice this vocation, together, in rounds.”

∞ “If you don’t watch out, language will be telling you what and who you are and what is to be done with or to you. And if you do watch out, you’re in for an experience that will render the wildest science fiction into scribbles. With the right lens? Language leads directly to its origins. Unprepared, that encounter could destroy your mind. But with a compass and a skill or three? You can find and ascend the Ladder. From there, dear Eternity will trade intimacies with you as her own.”

Love and Impossibility

Try to imagine that all beings in all of time are one being, first. That their unity always his priority over their seeming distinction. Timespace is not ‘stuff’ it’s transentient. It produces stars and worlds and organisms as expressions of its nature.

If you see from the perspective of unity, first… an entirely other universe opens to awareness. Everything is one family. We’re not merely human. Most of us is … our actual nature and abilities, our faculties… are far, far beyond our common concept ‘human’.

The ways we are trained to conceive of what is possible and what isn’t… are, demonstrably, mostly wrong. And they’re aggressively wrong, in that they treat evidence to the contrary with severe disdain, rather than open curiosity.

We must be timespace itself ( organisms are a mode of timespace, the relation cannot be dismissed ), this star, this world, a being, a member of all beings, an organism, an animal… a human, and a specific human. But the entire ladder is actually us. You and I. Our world. The many beings of mryiad kinds. The gods. The angels. The demons.

The nonhuman intelligences… which our planet is packed with… even though we are trained not to recognize them. The octopus, the whale, the jungle… these are organs of one creature that we belong to… and we belong even more deeply… to the sky and Origin ‘itself’.

We’re not merely not alone, it’s impossible to be alone, except in… conceptual thought.”
