Living in the Exceeding

 


In everything surrounding the individual, there is something that exceeds his or her own individuality.
Every time an individual questions their experience, they transcend within this exceeding.

Questioning about good is exceeding, questioning about evil is exceeding, questioning about life is exceeding, questioning about death is exceeding, questioning about consciousness is exceeding, questioning about sensibility is exceeding, questioning about silence is exceeding. 
Everything that entails questioning implies growth into the exceeding.

There are people who are aware of this exceeding, who feel it and are elevated to a superior state of consciousness and heart. Yet, there are many others who are not, because they do not question with metaphysical interest—an interest in transcending the material, which is utterly inadequate to respond to the sense of existence.

When an individual begins to feel the exceeding, they become caught in it. It allows them to recognize themselves within it. The individual is drawn to a broader horizon, one they are about to inhabit. They perceive it—perceive it through what is happening around them, through the way their life’s horizon is changing. It becomes a sort of augmented dimensionality that they catch sight of in their proximity.

The individual becomes caught in a "thereness" they sense from many signs, and above all, from a voice within the heart.

The individual lives in the saeculum, yet at the same time strongly feels that they belong to a different horizon—one vaster than the one they currently inhabit.

If we are to find the proper words to describe it, we could say that the exceeding has no appearance, no form, and is no entity (ὄν). It is only what is feelable, perceivable, and "heartable"—that is, realizable within the heart.

Fasting to reconnect your "Self" to your body

If there is a discrepancy between yourself and the body, between what you are and what you don't feel you are in your body, then fast, because there is excess to remove in the body. Through the stratifications of fat, the material that alienates you is deposited in the body. Removing decades of fat you remove the "Self" from its impediments to be reconnected with the body. Start thinking about fasting and wait for the right moment. Your body has its own indicators; it will signal when it is the right time to start fasting. Fasting is not a mere physical fact. It is changing the spirit of a time that has become stranger to us and that lives in us in order to alienate us to ourselves. Impossible to fast, without implying a change of the inner spirit. Those who fasted in the Old Testament did so to invoke great changes in life. Jesus himself fasted for forty nights and forty days and after fasting he was ready and strong enough to resist the devil and was ripe for his minist...

The temple of youth

  The yearning for death is but a swift race seeking to curtail our tormented pace. There lies a sacredness in thy yearning toward the highest good wildly striving. Toss the gaze heavenward and grasp the truth! In death, we lie upon and cast the temple of youth.

Guardando l'Amore di una madre con le sue figlie

Siete fatte della stessa pasta Di stesso sangue e spirito apposta Create - e vivete il mondo unite. Solo voi vostra lingua capite. Io curioso vi guardo lontano. Altro universo vivo io e so invano di non essere voi e mi stupisco, ma la materia vostra oh capisco! E' fatta di altra tessitura, la mia invece è sfilacciatura, e in altro spazio e tempo ascoso sto relegato triste, invidioso.
