>Using the creator/creation dichotomy to prove the creator/creation dichotomy.

Cause and effect is an abstraction that applies to an extremely small number of systems imprecisely. The ground of reality is continual mutual influence between all things.

Guenon was proactively refuted by Space Taoism, Alfred North Whitehead, and the grand epic of cosmic evolution described by modern science.

To be "schizo" is to have a general paranoia of and alienation from reality, to be fragmented and disconnected. Traditional Western thought is schizophrenic and metaphysically incelibate at its core; as Alfred North Whitehead one wrote, "The misconception which has haunted philosophic literature throughout the centuries is the notion of 'independent existence. ' There is no such mode of existence; every entity is to be understood in terms of the way it is interwoven with the rest of the universe."

Metaphysical incels can't into process-relationalism because they can't into change and relationships.

The many become one and are increased by one as one among many.

"Whitehead's Radically Temporalist Metaphysics" by George Allan. Great intro to Whitehead's philosophy and corrects the biggest errors in his system (the inclusion of timeless eternal objects, including god.)

There is no "endgame," to desire such is to desire become petrified: a statue, or fossil. This can be difficult to apprehend due to the deep bias towards permanence at the expense of change in our philosophies and language. Start and end with change, and you shall become organic, and dance with the universe.

What is permanent are the dead ashes of the past. You have objective immortality in how your influences on the world continue to move after your death. Future-directed intention is one pole of value: the other is the moment enjoyed for itself, in itself. Both these poles of value are for the purpose of the other: the moment perishes and becomes a datum for future experiences, the purpose of future-directed intention is to apprehend novel heights of attainment. There is no end to levels of attainment: our potential is infinite.

Whitehead's greatest failure is that he was too polite, refusing to insult any living value. He failed to properly illustrate a processual "way of life" based on his metaphysics. Instead the purpose of his system seems to bring "closure," i.e. to cope, rather than transform, which seems at odds with the ever-changing nature of things.

What would a processual way of life look like?

They sang the song that elevated humanity. Hundreds of thousands of inspired voices emerged from the global crisis and spoke powerful testimony about the value of life and the wonder of the universe. Their communications would touch the souls of billions and inspire incredible personal and social transformations. They would give birth to a generation of creatives that would outshine even them.
It most definitely was not called "normal," but the opposite: a strangification of experience; a socially infectious enchantment with life and all of existence. It was a psycho-social singularity, a singularity of human relationships including the transpersonal. What led it is the call of wonder, what drove it was the desire of curiosity at its greatest heights of aspiration.
Have you ever had a teacher who truly loved and lived to teach? Who had an overwhelming passion for teaching that made them an outstanding instructor? The kind of teacher who successfully infects students with the desire to learn and explore?
I have! I know they exist! I know how they have touched me! I have felt the same spark of inspiration in so many including writers, philosophers, artists, scientists, and their greatest passions speak of this blissful love of learning. If such passions could touch the hearts of the masses, it would be the single most transformative event in human history.
This is my greatest dream, and one day it will become a reality.

>Here’s the thing, when you experience the truth you will know it certainly.
Or more likely you created a feedback loop between anticipation and perception, resulting in self-reinforcing delusions / the illusion of certainty.
The only thing certain is change.

Gnosticism and neoplatonism is metaphysical incelibacy, an ontological cuck cage that cannot imagine beyond itself.

Who said it has to be either/or?
I think I'll find a common terrain that includes both art and science with mutual inclusion, that accepts every aspect of experience.
And what other terrain could this be than "discovery?"
