Divine impassibility is not a lack of passion, but an eternally unshakeable, rational passion.
—Anonymous (okay, it was me)
A counter-obligatory imperative is no imperative at all.
— Augustine of Hippo
(my translation, using deontic logic terms)

“Divine impassibility is not a lack of passion, but an eternally unshakeable, rational passion.’

Get it, around it another way: the passion is really more comprised of a rational-intelligent prearrangement, that is about the necessity of fall, in order to realize what a splendidly intelligent design it is to fall, for It’s All There, in the cosmic instant of eternal life, ,,, for how can a man glance for an instant of what that (Absolute Eternity may look like.
me think you refer to he, don’t get mad at me, really , I will quote Nietzche, though got to connect say at least decades if not centuries. It may take some time but even if don’t appear to work on it, I know it’s working itself out. Jest don’t really know what it is, totally, for me to know or you to find out. But don’t get angry at any rate, pls.
PS. So much depends on it,
Whatevs, Meno.
Ishtus, I have not received a grade yet, which may be a sign I am on the right track, with Kant sewing up anthology, and thus synthesis, therefore naive realism is or may be apologetic, and insufficient ground , on the contrary.
Still the vanity of existence is also on the right track, hence revaluation must be incremental to some extent.
Will try to find something by N, on that accord, maybe having to do with the will, from Schopenhauer?
I’d nor exaggerating how important this may be, starting from the depths through the roof, if there is one.
Nietzces views on
I get it but really getting lost in this invisible ink transcript, I got the de-optic logic of Hippo, or was it Augustine. Anyway, as far as vanity is concerning Shop, it gets to the quick, where Socrates toxi c ingestion echoes someone saying a long time hence that: an ounce of Plato is like an ounce of poison, or something like it.
The is-ought universal premise, combined with the proto-irony of N, is based on a naively realistic assumption, that will objectify by the utilization of the will.
This in no way is detracting from the later assumption’s validity, as N had no access to Heidegger’s study on temporal flow, and incidentally with N’s preoccupation to semblance with the correspondence with Buddhism ideas so described above.
So Wagner’d charge of this type of indulgence, graphically represented, is brutally valid, but very much out of character.
So far I dared not address other topics such as the decoded logic surrounding Nichiren’s description of ‘Regression’ as a general framework that the Gaza situation is prevy to: in fact such backward movement is evident , kind of, of the idea again entertained in Buddhism of two kinds of construction, namely by Fire and Water; where water represents a letting go, whereas fire reminds of the much later reductionist dynamic entertained by Freud and Reich. That is obliged to relive such logical rationality, not yet up to par with any other reductive attempt.
Such later an angst, the repressive hysterical panick that duration could yet not offer, incidentally: Polanyi et al. Pointed to it in his great transformative attempt to reformulate such intent at least figuratively, later technically by others in such group.
The whole idea of reforming such regressive structural dynamics is evidence toward this intrinsic movement.
It’s late now, hope seriously no F is forthcoming, back to Morpheus.
Woke up this morning, I died in Christ, but knew from the dream I had that it’s not time yet!
The dream went like this: I got a kind of picture that the single inoperable plasticity needing circuitry did not singularly flow , ( like water)but it’s doubly attached set, did move, and when seeing this, I kind of felt I was alive in my dreams,
I woke up and knew that the infinitely repeating occurrences that re-incarnation manifests, could be the mind repeatedly asks it’self out of uncertainty for its own Being. Of course poor Nietzche was still again at the beginning of the slope Camus thinks he needs to carry with him up the slope, but again in Zyour own words: Here we are.
No flattery or amusing anecdote made me write this, but the need to reconcile :the sacred and the profane, inasmuch as in general terms, vanity of existence of a Vedas congruence of Schopenhauer can not reconcile with the proto promethian Nietzchean analogy of Buddha like contention, again in as much as Vanity concerns with the pleasure (principle) covering its humongously divisive schism, that which dares separate from it’s pre arranged blueprint, that is The Eord of God.
De-cloning to identifie with Christs gentle Waters ( which shortly will be done) is a way of showing a partnership within and without theat flow as described by Nicherin.
That takes care of the ontological guilt existing between the mere possible and the absolute certainty of the validity of such
For your eyes only: religious experiences of the kind James talked of are rare, and I’m coming to the crux of the matter, with Christ being the centerpiece, but for now I came to the point of needing things to do, until tonight. So long,
Last but not least, the proof is in the pudding, knowing who the Master is and the student,
Isaiah 43:2
Abandoning Catholicism, or they abandoning me; shipping around for a pritestant sect that’s welcoming irrespective.. Adi coming over tenuously going to New York in 10 days told her we will see a broadway play on the 15 th opera is out, unfortunately. Then 3 weeks in Columbia South America, the only good thing about that is although it’s rainy it usually is at 80 degrees. Worried about the trip though.
Regarding good night between Ec, it could suit him to turn agnostic then remain atheist, at least giving him an opportunity to moderate or, inscribe other facets into his either/or attitude;
See how painful to make changes like that, Nietzche’s father was Protestant, his irony thus so well preordained nihilism, a kind of farce.
Any suggestions thinking you are awarely cognizant to my shopping for an appropriate physical location of a church?
Another thing. Koenig, as per Nichiram a standing up singularly against all oddd of the conventional mode, , namely that a realization of what’s at stake, and how coincidentally, familiarize myself into how I fit in, to peace sought after , bluntly at the critical point of enrichment of nuclear options— is snuff to drive one Barry at the very least; since a new reincarnated soul Carrie’s this seed of a type of genetic-Grnesisendiwment which none would wish to carry around brandishing with glee, while proclaiming ‘here I am’ from dust to dust, star dust that is!
Ec could turn agnostic and skip the gnostic stage by adhering to Nichiren’s caution not to regress.?
Not familiar/fluent with/in Nichiren, but why do you insist on using “gnostic” when it triggers “Gnostic”? Are you scratching out the common (ironic, that) meaning like an antiGnostic gangsta? Yes, please skip the Gnosis & go straight for the meaning hidden in plain sight, let’s.
Feel a little like thinking that Crist is subsistent with the motive behind the saying : ‘Love your enemies’ which may shed light on the differences shading the double edge between Agnostic and the Gnostic Not really sure, though.
Oh NOW you’re capitalizing Agnostic. Stubborn. 5 trillion demerits.
Jetpack, how Platonism is kkds’stuff, meant for kid’s sake, so they can see models, of themselves through their progressive development.
they can not understand without seeing, at their stage, Christ could not have them fall, where they have to construct a Kabbalah of understanding without the preceding karmic equivalent mirroring themselves first.
Einstein implied this paradoxical highest power when saying He doesen’t play games with marbles.
The earliest Sutra that behooves the Lotus flower in scripts a mystic law embodied within it, and it grows to remarkable structural affinity, from a ground mired in filth.
ha, me no menome no me.
Spy.
I can not at this point write anything anymore it seems like the love left me but in fact I know I left, and at this point leave the comptress d material as is, I give up for now. The leaving left me with an emptiness I know is not empty, it is filled but I can only hope … the faith , of it , it’s never ending substance will never leave, I can not even say me, for I can not even feel what it is that consists within that I can see as my own self, not to say to name it.
❤️🔥🙏
I leave it to the higher powers . To view my attempts at sincerity, lifting me up as well as dashing me down.
In the house of love? No don’t think so at least not woken, but invisible unintentionally, even reversely so, like when the satiric frenzy, in some odd future could convince even the least autistic/retarded.
But did not wit(gen)stein so convince himself such for the sake of convention, that even if not true, it should be?
.and so it is.?,
Wanna see a real good flick, odd ball that it is, goes a long way about dreams and AI retro inspired good goals such dreams may represent? Watch ‘Strange Woman’ ca.1948.
very oddball, strange coincidences here, perhaps making anything but an elemental uniqueness highly improbable, maybe later but not ready to share yet what makes one limited whereas the phenomenal strives to unshackle?
re plied with old grand dad, ‘wish’ but gotta anyway our trip here in big Apple is done an existential hip hop perhaps, errands worth taking or must, why must is an equally good question. Tell It, yes it would take volumes but not speak , of perhaps later,
Will fill in right now my tantric coincidences are threesome:
one the platonic antagonist-antigens, the vanity of Shop,
I’m interrupted all ways what the heck was I saying, the other strain the lotus sutra and the third the social programmed engineered , as semblance, and they kind of 2gather what’s on third or who, bottom line spelled out as the the fine boundary between the familiar and the familial:
subservient to that is doctor sax, Strangelove, and me no has no idea how rolled the stone got here, guess by some kind of fiat, so as to have relevance to the war(s) of atonement, whereby over reaction trumped the supposed transcendental retro imposition ; mostly on You, dear Ischthus, pls don’t get me wrong I’m dead earnest, !
no mean nomeno
mean no meno nome no
nomenomeano
me no me know me no no, me know me is two romancing the stone. but moh, much moh
…what are you talking about, man?
just that, that were too far gone down memory lane to think you don’t know me for being a straight shooter.
I don’t know you.

ok sorry , do you perhaps know (of) Ishthus, a past friend of mine, I’ve been trying to reach?
I am still working on the question posed by You, that you assumed strongly that I may not be able to answer, -about Kant’s critique toward pure reason or, Camus’s coining it as ‘passion’.
I think Camus’ idea and the practical reason clash rather obviously, and am trying to figure out Nietzche’s take, and it’s kind of convoluted other than -feeling sorry is not a sign of compassion, but understanding through the use social-strength to combat the negative forces is.
