Event horizon

Halfway between memory and imagination, I'm inventing a time machine to travel to the present moment.

I can't get here from here.

If being here now is possible, where are the tourists from the present?

The Singularity

My Smartphone downloaded My mind into a Twinkie. (What shelf life!) At Sunrise in a moment of Self-forgetting I ate the Twinkie, and became Mindful ... a dark Immortality.

File corruption

What we think of as the "Cosmos" is an infinite regress of errors of clerical → minutia and visual-spatial formatting, incorrectly [sic]ed and meta-[sic]ed, analogous to an endless series of scribal errors, incorrectly referenced, or in contemporary terms, a corrupted file that cannot be restored.

Unknowing*

Unheard silence without and within, the Unnameable is set apart. Presence here and now, doing in the lower, as in the Higher. See in the moment transsubstantial food. And forgiven as forgive. And led not into distraction, but delivered from sleep.


 * Yaldabaoth is dead.

Nitpicking the Heavens

The Buddha thought the constellations of the clear night sky were clerical minutia and spent his life as a Grand Critic, nitpicking the heavens.

The immortality of Zeno of Elea

Zeno of Elea reportedly had a calendar on which he scheduled special events, such that he could only approach halfway to an event and then halfway again, ... The events on his schedule receded asymptotically to Zeno's own event horizon. While Zeno appeared to be frenetically busy to himself, he generally appeared to be a puddle of Bose–Einstein condensate to an outside observer. In this way Zeno was unaffected by his own death, which only occurred beyond his event horizon.

An objective glimpse of Buddhism

The Buddha had perfect *clerical* attention and attained awakening only by proofreading under the Bodhi tree, not by meditation. In fact the Buddha only perceived letters and commas, not the stars, the sun, the sky or living beings. Gautama actually thought his mother was a mere semicolon, his father an exclamation mark and considered the idea that other sentient beings may exist to be mere sentimentality. Therefore, the Buddha rightly only practiced compassion towards letters of the alphabet and punctuation marks. Only later did his teaching become sadly corrupted to recognize and include 'more' than clerical minutia as significant. Indeed, the word "seeker" is a corruption of the original "[sic]er" and the idea of 'wisdom', itself, a corruption derived from "wise guy".

Seeing dead people

When I was a small child I could see living people all around me. I could see my mother and father and people in the street, all living and moving about. I thought everyone could see them. So I happened to mention it to my mother and father, who were quite disturbed by this. They told me to stop talking such non-sense. There were no living people, they themselves were not living or present, and even if they were, I certainly could not see them. So I learned not to talk about this subject. As I got older sometimes I had in-the-body experiences and imagined that I remembered glimpses of a present life. But now I only see dead people like everyone else.

Roast pigeon

Hungering and thirsting after a certain taste of vagueness, so practical, so practical ... Even here one must steal the vagueness, nothing will be given, nothing can be given. Pondering pondering, being in question of being in question; being in quotation, a certain being in colon. So practical, vagueness *scientifically verified* ... ; the taste of certain vague talk ... ; fragments of silence.

§–≈≠≤≥±×÷←→§71.186.141.157 00:15, 28 June 2007 (UTC)Memoir of a non-Irish non-Jew isn't about being Irish and Jewish or non-Irish and non-Jewish. It is about the chase of tracking down one's ancestral origins, whatever they may be, and the delightfully quirky unexpected discoveries that await you along the way, no matter what your family origins. "You are a link in the chain of your blood. Be proud of it, it is an honor to be this link," G. I. Gurdjieff. But it's also about learning not to identify with the achievements and failing of one's ancestors or even with one's own carefully crafted persona. "What do I have in common with the Jews? I don't even have anything in common with myself, " Franz Kafka. Who are we? Remembering with awareness of various levels of irony the response of Bodhidharma, the Indian monk who brought Buddhism from India to China, to King Wu's question, "Who are you?" -- "I don't know"! What is our identity, if we awaken in the moment from the stories of our lives and the dreams of our culture? -- May-Tzu – — … ° ≈ ≠ ≤ ≥ ± − × ÷ ← → · § 71.186.141.157 00:15, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Among the Laputans it was not considered true that a house built of metaphors is not as strong as a house built of straw. It had been said since time immemorial that a house built of metaphors is stronger than a house built of bricks and mortar. It is not known if the Laputans meant this metaphorically or literally. But it has been noted that the Laputans left no relics or artifacts of their past glory and are said to have had no shadows. This absence of evidence for the existance of the Laputans is, in fact, the most enduring monument to the greatness of their achievements.

The Laputans find composing plays to be far too practical and randomness, itself, excessively ordered; Yet they accomplish the most complex tasks by seemingly random actions, which depend upon a perfect utilization of the butterfly effect. Some dwell invisibly in ancient cities which have long since vanished from the Earth.

The Laputan space program is attempting to determine the location of their ancestral planet, Earth. (All Laputans are rumored to have at least 300 IQs.) There is no consensus among the even most pragmatic on how to determine which direction is "down", in order to reach the Earth. But, as an expression of unity, their plan is to launch exploratory spacecraft at more or less random times off the island of Laputa in all possible directions. At some later time the Laputan astronauts will devise a plan to regroup somewhere and then construct a complete model of the cosmos on a larger scale than the cosmos, itself, in order to gain precision.

Among the Laputans endurance breathing is considered a lifetime sport and one which they are truly motivated to play, usually on highly competitive endurance breathing teams, but sometimes in solitude among the clouds. The games are, of course, televised 24 - 7, but often the uninitiated have difficulty differentiating the sportsmen from the spectators. The games continue until everyone in the range of a particular camera deceases of old age or of the intense excitement of the sports competition, itself.

The Holy Land

According to the One-and-Only-One True Revelation, the entire surface of the Earth, and even below the surface to a considerable depth, was given forever by the Landlord to the Chosen Bacteria. Even today, unnoticed amidst the Arabs and the Jews, bacteria continue to live quietly and worship within their Holy Land, according to their ancient traditions. Only the Chosen Bacteria received a Revelation of pure signal with no noise.

Ideologies

Freedom, peace and prosperity are far better than their absence or negation. But ideologies are one-dimensional left-right maps of multidimensional territories of phenomenal processes and values; the attempted depiction of a cube or tesseract using only a straight line segment. There are no front-wingers or back-wingers, and no up-wingers or down-wingers. Moreover, unlike conventional maps, ideologies usually better serve the manufacturer of the map than the individual attempting to find his way.

The Near Shall Be Far; And The Far Near

In already-withered futures everyone will be incredibly famous throughout uncountable worlds of unimaginably remote galaxies in other parallel universes; considered celebrities by innumerable life forms unrecognizable and incomprehensible to them. However, the closer one approaches to anyone proximate, the more darkly obscure she will become, and then increasingly unfamiliar with the passage of time; No one nearby will be dimly recognizable or ever be known, even by rumors; Languages will have no words for mother or other; Standing before the mirror, one will see no reflection; Yet this will be considered unremarkable.

On Our Increased Longevity

A profoundly depressed person may well not be capable of suicide. This could account for the increased longevity of modern Western man, rather than public health measures and medicine alone. More modern humans than in the past are simply too depressed to commit suicide. But every so often there is a cycle of collective improvement in the mass psyche. Perhaps it is occasioned by a slight reduction in the mass consumerism and endless striving after wealth and status. More individuals become less depressed and this improvement in the mass psyche is generally manifested as a mass suicide-homicide movement, perhaps a local conflict or major war.

Vista

After so many years of striving I finally became a blind rodent, incessantly gnawing its way through a limitless garbage heap, contemplating its own sublimity; listening with resentment to the gnawing sounds of its blind fellows nearby.
