Kanon Filsafat 21

This is pure rambling. Be warned. This is pure rambling, I repeat. I think not of any value in this writing. I will produce more words than anyone can read for me and this will be the end of me. Yet beyond all this rambling there lies some sort of meaning. I am desperate, for some kind of fundamental structure that governs this entire reality. Yet, the more I peer into it, I recognize that there are 2 possible explanations or theories on what reality is. Reality is either structured or it has no fundamental structure, why is this? It all depends on how we exactly see Reality.

The idea of structure, order, and law is probably a human construct. It is only a human reality. What happens if we dehumanize ourselves for the sole purpose of looking into the absolute structure, order, and law of reality? This involves absolute and complete abstraction, the destruction and removal of every human reality in order to uncover the pure reality. It is philosophical destruction, it is to go beyond the pre socratics, to go beyond the a prioris, and to go beyond the cogito. Is it possible? This means we must abandon all kinds of logic and rationality, to peer into the Absolute Logic and Absolute Rationality.

One thinks, or must we even shut down our thinking in order to achieve this goal? For even thinking follows a law. There is a certain impossibility to this task that I am trying to do. In fact, I have not even considered why I want to do this. However, there is a particular reason why I do want to do this. That is, I long for That, and what is That, with a capital T? It is That which lies beyond exactly that, all kinds of humanity. The Transcendent One, The One, The Reality, The Being, That is what I long for.

Possession or any kind of vision of this Being will destroy the humanity in us, and thus I do not believe that this Being has ever been seen in whole, as the total vision of Being will make us Same with that Being, thus we lose all of our identity. According to the Church, it is impossible for the Being to want to destroy us, Being wants us happy, but we believe in the Church by Faith, and not by any rational principles. Being is absolutely beyond reason to grapple with. It is wholly incomprehensible by man, in nature or in particularity. For that reason, there is a mystery to how Christ is united in His divinity and in His humanity. It is totally beyond reason how that happens.

I digress. There is a contradiction between structuralism, the idea that reality has an ordered legal structure to it, and absolute simplicity, the idea that reality is partless, it has no parts, it is a simple thing where all things are united. For structure and order and law implies complexity with a certain law governing that complexity. That is our world, the human world. However, the absolute reality, or Reality, is nothing like that. It is an absolutely simple Reality, which He said it best, “My Existence is My Essence.” What does that even mean? We do not know.

It means precisely that, the Essence of Reality is His own Existence. His Essence is His Existence and His Existence is His Essence. It means He has no other Essence than to simply Exist. That means, what? It means He cannot be a thinking thing, as that means He has a distinguishable essence other than existence. That is stupid. It means Reality does not have a mind. Reality does not have, Reality cannot have, Reality simply Is. He simply Is. Yet He speaks, He creates, He generates, He “loves”, and so many other things. This is of course incomprehensible. In any case, it turns out that Reality is incomprehensible and thus there is no need to dig deeper, it is all incomprehensible.
