On Geometry:
THERE EXISTS A THEORY OF FORM, DIVIDED INTO SIX SHAPES. THE TRIANGLE, CUBE, PENTAGON, HEXAGON, HEPTAGON, AND THE OCTAGON. THESE FORMS REPRESENT ALL THAT HUMAN KIND NEEDS, ACCORDING TO PLATO, AS ONE LIES IN THE OTHER SEAMLESSLY, AND ARE USED AS TOOLS TO PROCESS THE UNIVERSE.
GEOMETRY IS FROM THE HEAVENS – SOMETHING SO PERFECT, WHERE THE LINES OF ELEMENTS DRIVE SO VERY STRAIGHT. THE HUMAN MIND STRIVES FOR THIS GEOMETRY, AND SO DO ALL THINGS NATURAL. THIS IS WHERE SPIRITUALITY COMES FROM. GEOMETRY NOT ONLY EXISTS IN THE HEAVENS, BUT IS EXEMPLIFIED IN WORLDLY ELEMENTS AS WELL. THERE IS ONE OBJECTIVE TO AN ELEMENT AND THAT IS TO FULFILL THE ENERGY IT HAS BEEN GIVEN. IF THE ELEMENT’S ENERGY IS TO JOURNEY FROM POINT A TO POINT B, THEN TRAVEL IT WILL. AND SO, HUMANS DO THE SAME. HUMANS REACH FROM POINT A TO B EVERY DAY, FOLLOWING THE LINES OF GEOMETRY AND NOTHING MORE. FOR WE ARE MADE OF THESE CONSTANTS IN OUR VERY MOLECULAR STRUCTURES AND PRACTICE THEM EACH MOMENT.
THE UNREACHABLE IS THAT OF ONE’S MOST INNER DESIRES AND TRUEST INTENTIONS. THE ABSOLUTE OF ONESELF. I OFTEN IMAGINE WHAT THE ABSOLUTE WOULD LOOK LIKE OF A PERSON OR A THING. COULD IT BE THE PICTURE OF AN EMANATING ELEMENT? A PARTICLE? WOULD IT EMIT LIGHT AND POWER, ENERGY? WOULD IT BE EVERYTHING?
On Spirit:
EACH FORM IS WHAT IT IS IN IT’S OWN RIGHT.
WHAT IF WE PERCEIVE THINGS DIFFERENTLY? IF I WERE TO CALL A CAT A DOG, WOULD IT BE WRONG? THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT MY FORM CAN HAVE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NAME FOR THE SAME SUBJECT…AFTER ALL, AREN’T WE MADE UP OF THE SAME ELEMENTS AS PLANTS, ANIMALS, AND STARDUST? PIERRE AUGUSTE RENOIR ONCE SAID: “WHAT HAPPENS BUT METAMORPHOSES ONLY IN THE HEART AND ON THE SURFACES OF STARS?” IF WE ARE ALL THE SAME, ONLY DISTINGUISHED BY DIFFERENTIATING MOLECULAR STRUCTURES, THEN THE STRUCTURE I AM TO PERCEIVE HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BE CALLED OR REFERRED TO AS SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN WHAT OTHERS MAY REFER TO AS THE SAME STRUCTURE OF MOLECULES.
FORM IS A SUBJECT’S ABSOLUTE (ONE’S TOTALITY AND TRUTH, MOLECULAR AND SPIRIT). IF FORM IS THE SUBJECT EXISTING IN ITS TOTALITY, THEN THAT ABSOLUTE EXISTS. IF THE ABSOLUTE EXISTS, THEN THERE MUST ONLY BE ONE NAME, ONE REFERENCE, TO THE TRUTH OF A STRUCTURE.
HOWEVER, INTELLIGIBLE FORM (METAPHYSICAL FORM, METAPHYSICS) CONTRASTS THE SENSIBLE FORM (PHYSICAL FORM, PHYSICS). AND IF COGNITIVE FORM IS SUPERIOR TO SENSIBLE FORM, THEN IMPRESSIONISM IS DEDUCTIVE REASONING – THERE ARE TWO ENTITIES OF FORM, BOTH IMPRESSED UPON: THE INTELLIGIBLE AND THE SENSIBLE. THE INTELLIGIBLE, METAPHYSICAL FORM NEVER CHANGES. SO ARE WE SUBJECTING WHAT WE KNOW TO OUR MINDS’ EYES? ARE WE THE MAKERS OF METAPHYSICS…ON THE SMALLEST AND MOST GENERAL LEVEL OF ALL THAT WE KNOW AND SEE? HUMANS REMAIN IN THIS FACT: WE ALL PERCEIVE THE WORLD DIFFERENTLY. THERE MUST BE NO ABSOLUTE. IF EVERY BODY IS SUBJECT TO DIFFERENT MOLECULAR STRUCTURES… WE CAN NEVER HAVE AN ABSOLUTE BECAUSE EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT, EVERY MIND IS DIFFERENT AND EVERY MOLECULAR STRUCTURE IS DIFFERENT. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE AN ABSOLUTE IF NO ONE IS THE SAME; NOTHING MAY BE ANYTHING, AND VISA VERSA.
WE LIVE IN A WORLD OF SENSIBILITY, always AIMING FOR THE INTELLIGIBLE.
