Because: we are never alone. Any representation is willed , the mystical experience in the mi#lebof the night.
MagsJ referenced the Menoic abstraction that was built of why the 5 reduced to two, the very doubt that concerned Descartes’ lonely search for the ‘Other’
But his search was in Vain
The same lonely existential vanity which became a reductive effort to find apologies fir, and then some reason found, in those early deformation efforts to find some semblance, between greater expressions of overcoming that vanity.
And that was the concern with the Re-Presentation It’s Self.
Man adhered to this search, trying to redempt Himself through himself, not knowing of the reversalnof the coming Reformation. THE Redemtion was a an Act par Excellance to overcome this vanity, that has been proven to be based on the illusive (but not contradictory false) solution of self deception
No. The Vanity’s pain caused Faust’s tradeoff to be ambiguous, to the detriment of ‘patching’ a myopic near blindness, on part of that, which tried 3 level reductions between 3 and 2 and the One. I think vanity became an intolerable price to pay, in Man’s search to find his place; as if he could carry some Other One through that almost completely denied metamorphic last act.
But this need alienated the Other, the Other being within the supposed guilt of the fear of other, as ‘anynother’.
Such guilt and fear, superimposed within a negated denial of the self, created the means by which the transition could be made.
And only a hero, a superhero devoid of fear and the image of
Both- the Ideal and it’s antithesis, fused into a nothingness, could be some thing that could undo the deal.
The deal was made to attain the ideal, but not foreseen it’s undoing, the difference was ignored; prior to the great tragic death of a Minotaur kind of fear. THE Redemption was an effort to overcome the fear .
The redemption was a literal act that directly sealed the guilt and the pain which the Great Pretender has caused.
In fact , the Redemption is an intrinsic , ever repeating process which exposes the fallacy of what a lonely God f oes fir himself, as a future realization of the shadow of the spirit of the Holy Spirit can infuse all into the One.
Mystical experience, is like the feeling of fear at death’s door, voting in alone, going out the same way- however that is the illusion necessary to require a clean slate (alpha) so that Man can live, can rerun the series of stills spliced together yo gorm the film of life.
Without film of splicing, cutting, and moving them around, there could be no life that could come up with meaningful images, to feed the imagination, scenes without words, kearney toward and compasses through a higher gradient,and become sound, and to signal
In the beginning was the Word, do that we may become conscious of this ever revolving process of remembering and forgetting , both within and without the realm of consciousness. The reduction of 5 to 2 is analogous to the devolution of the dpirit of man into a single entity, that cuts away the carcass intrinsic in the double, and the One there, can live with it’s antiheroic substance , where he is separated and kept to a peaceful but necessary existence, to a time when the two will again be cut away.
Every cut is painful and create cumulatively added strength, so that the ended healed wound can justify the means.
Note: badly in need of editing: either/or a delete, there is some stream which does bring out with large brush strokes the demanded edges that night’s end reveal, as I see dawn’s early light forming the outlines of the.melted objects near.
Perhaps, even an effort to wrangle something out of the unconscious anathema of the dead still.
