LET ALL THINGS PERISH UTTERLY.
2
It is the same to me where I begin for to that place I shall return.
3
The ignorant call the two ways light and night. They are not. They are doxa and alatheia. Light and night are doxa; alatheia beyond both.
4
Heraclitus did not dismiss the world, only its concepts. He dissolved the mighty chains mind fastens on the real. But still saw not beyond the veil.
5
Seeing fundamental ISness is the blade that pierces the veil. ISness grows from the unchanging root that is the bedrock of Being itself.
6
It is the same thing to think and to be. Phenomena peeled back from perception; noumenon, the THOUGHT of all-pervading ISness, undivided and common to all. The way that is revealed when the intellect does not stir.
7
Much learning does not teach understanding, or else it would have taught professors, wise in their own conceit.
8
They turn away into their own private worlds. Their opinions children’s playthings.
9
When clouds cloud moon, moon still stands beyond clouds; one, shared and common to all. When doxa clouds alatheia, alatheia is still everywhere near – one, shared and common to all.
10
The way is permanent, steadfast, unconditioned, and eternal. It is the alatheia.
11
Doxa, alatheia, motion. Source of mixed unmixed. It is mind that moves phenomenon. The mind still: Liberation.
12
Doxa, alatheia, no relation, no distinction, one.
13
Jealously guarding their tomb, wishing everything to stay dead.
14
For each, men have posited a distinctive name. By naming, doxa swells.
15
Wisdom is both willing and unwilling to be called by the name of Zeus. If willing: Division, distinction, not God. Unwilling, no division, totality, God.
16
When a god begins to know, he is an ignoramus.
17
Mummifying the medium, the message ignored.
18
In their ignorance they are by nature quarrelsome.
19
LIGHTNING STEERS EVERYTHING. ISness unveiled – phenomena, forms, and conditions are null. Alatheia, no thought, but thinker. LIGHTNING STEERS EVERYTHING.
20
The alatheia knows itself and therefore knows the doxa. So to meet this way is to learn of ALL things. Alatheia, the removal of the veil.
21
Doxa is none other than alatheia, but the doxa does not know. The doxa is already the alatheia in this now, DIVISIONLESS. Do not say of alatheia that it is true, for that is to imply that it is NOT UNTRUE. There must be perfect non-divisiveness in your mind, or your mind will never reach the alatheia.
22
The mind’s epiphanies are the moments of true seeing. Everything else is the veil.
23
Separate, even Plato’s forms are doxa, their ideality unreal.
24
Alatheia is no state or thing, nor concept. It cannot be grasped, nor had, nor attained, nor conceived. No book imparts it, no logic points towards it. For nature loves to hide.
25
Heidegger should be flogged and expelled from the competition.
26
Parmenides speaks of ways, but there are no ways. Worst of all are those who form the image of a road and do not see that the road up and the road down is one and the same.
27
When Parmenides was born in the East, he said: “When you do not think Light and you do not think Night, what is the true nature of Being?”
28
The one, how IT IS and how it is not possible for IT not to be.
29
Parmenides: Gaze steadily with mind on what is absent and on what is present.
Heraclitus: I SEARCHED MYSELF.
30
When Heraclitus saw phenomena with mind, he saw them as impermanent and non-distinct. Parmenides saw only mind with mind. There were no phenomena at all.
31
When clouds reveal the moon, the moon does not come into being. When clouds conceal the moon, the moon does not cease to be. Therefore in alatheia there is no coming-to-be and no ceasing-to-be, no seen or unseen, no clear or clouded, no light and no night. To understand this is to be carried as far as your spirit might reach.
32
There is no light, and nor any ceasing or end of light.
There is no night, and nor any ceasing or end of night.
33
They removed their veils from their faces as they left the abode of Night.
