When Nietzsche Took Cocaine

[Jakob]

The golden nature values all into gold. I believe this to be the true timeline of the universe; Even though it may never happen, if there is a true end to the world of matter it is when all has been raged into gold, and there is nothing that can be changed anymore.

Valuing or valuation is the most “objective” value there is. In an abstract sense, “valuation” itself is invaluable (note: this means the opposite extreme of “not valuable”!). But in a concrete sense, it only begins with “some other self-valuings”. Here, the opposite extreme of (presque) rien would be “all other self-valuings”. This, however, can only happen indirectly; one can directly value only the self-valuings one actually encounters, of course… It is only by extension, if one values all of those, that one values all beings, directly or indirectly.

• Invaluable is probably read best as inestimable; of a worth that cant be contained by reason, circumscribed. ‘If the doors of perception were cleansed every value would appear to man as it is: Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all values thro’ narrow chinks of his cavern.’

It is fitting that the brother of the abyss and the screaming fire eagle above the abyss are the precursors to the golden nature, as gold is birthed in the fury of a star.

(Ultimately, the universe can only end if flux is ended entirely, which means only when all matter has been pressed into gold. The golden nature is the end of time)

Hum ho - to be fair, what I owe to you is that you brought me to great books.

In the second instance it is to be brought about, by doing such things as N proposes in the WtP, inflicting upon the human species a condition which rewards superior being.

How is this not merely a “chore”, as Parodites would have it? How is this not a distraction of the philosopher from his true task, which is being evermore what he is?
Simple; but only simple […] when you can no longer separate your consciousness from the destiny of the universe in the primary-causal sense. […] - when you have forged a katana from a rusty chainlink on the anvil I placed at the precipice.

In my case it’s no katana, no single-edged blade, but a double-edged one, like the hammer with which I forged it.

⸮?

Thank you for that—and not only for that, of course. (For me, light-space is “gold”, by the way. The black gold.)

Hammer that splits the sky
Hammer that splits the mind

some very good insights occurred to me as I drove home.

Blessed be the philosophers of Amsterdam, world-healers. World masters.

Actually, this sounds more like something that Nietzsche might have said if he took LSD.

Well, I wouldn’t go that far.

N says shit like that sober, Biggs. I’ont even wanna know what he’d say on LSD.

I cant argue with either of you on this.

It occurred to me that as nature loves to hide, she hides even her own hiding, and appears to appear.

This is more a matter of the leopard cloak than of the hammer though.
