wtf was Plotinus a fan of NGE?

is this one of the themes of Neon Genesis Evangelion?

There was a chart compiling all media that could be considered to influence NGE, wish I had saved it

Not really. There's a part where all humanity gets melted into primordial soup, but it never implies that this particular state of oneness is the ideal goal for all.

NGE is tranny gnosticism.

isn't the AT field supposed to represent the delusion of separation and that destroying it (and merging) is good or something? I would think being one with all is better than being a depressed shut-in, a psycho btich, a Barbei doll etc.

NGE is a Christian refutation of Plotinus.
You just need to learn to see it.

I brought this up a couple of times, to no avail:

>Disclaimer: I have not watched it and I think Anime is gay.

>From what I can tell, it presents an absurd dichotomy AND several absurd ideas ascribed to the element that it cautions against. The "unity" supposedly opposite to the plurality of Selves is a kind of Buddhist nightmare where all are diluted into "one", Mereological decomposition which assumes that the whole is emergent from parts, or the parts "active" or "full" and the whole "passive" or "empty" immanently, and which coincides the absolute, transcendent, whole with absolute "passivity" and "emptiness". Which is quite silly and antithetic to the perennial "that man is I and I am that man" Dialectical unity of Jesus, Plotinus, Hegel, etc.

AT field is the separation of humans into distinct persons, seen as bad and to be removed by the buddhist elite NGOs. They're even named "absolute terror field" by them. What Shinji realizes is that they are actually good and humans should not fight it, even if it causes one temporary suffering.

Being = unique in its molteplicity
Your soul & my soul = born from Intelligence and Being, share some of their traits but aren't unitites as they are different for each person. Long story short, we possess something that belongs to Being but Being doesn't possess what we individual souls have, namely individuality.
