Lego building blocks in flux and sorting it out

2 posts in this topic

It occurred to me, the idea of "imagined", "belief", and "memory" are three terms that trip us up in trying to start towards the contemplation, and explanation around things like consciousness. First, alls that exists is the imagined, i.e. memory, whereby "belief" can be said applying to the immediate present, ie. "the strongest of imagined beliefs", aka short term memory. where as long term memory, a lesser pronounced belief, exists in the unconscious, non-immediate recollection.

In this way, long term memories can be something conjured, something made distinct, made expressive, such that they engage in the short-term sequence.

There isnt a single point where memory, reality, and subjective experience has a permanent line, one that reads "this is separate", rather, we give it an objective distinction. That is, we bring things of the non-material, into a programmatic system, a functional wrapper, and that influences what "belief" (itself the highest form of recollection) is , within the routine of imagined, immediate thought and presence.

I liken the whole thing to lego-building-blocks, for not only does short and long term not have a distinct line, the whole thing exists in a constant state of flux, a layered place of possibilities, pulled into a finite world or threshold, which is to be made finite through that impression of taking the eternal and non-material to be <insert association> of material and limited, even though prior to limitation, it exists as something thoughtless and wordless (maybe youd call it, "the most center point" or "the most neutral thing", and existence itself, prior to belief sortve thing)

That should help now in being able to straightforwardly contemplate, as far as getting past those terms.


Paraphrase from Poimandres (Corpus Hermeticum): "... that which is in the Word is also in ourselves."

Greek Magical Papyri (PGM): "I call upon the Word of the All, that which binds heaven and earth, and let it manifest in the circle."

Plato – Cratylus (439–440): "A name is a likeness of the thing itself; if rightly spoken, it carries the essence of what it names."

P.s. you might branch out from this in two different ways: One, by  simply enforcing istemifor the brain is gonna absorb it, given its apparent 'method of logic, and try to paint a coherent picture around it, approaching the gyrating center ~

However that gyrating center is somethin' that we / us is, *) actively gyrating, and *) attempting to \*point to (at the same time)

Yet, one is not capable of *pointing to, and revealing (unless its through experience, towards the direct experiencing of...)

So you may also investigate these terms, that is ἀλήθεια, i.e., truth or more literally, the un-concealment. And that is directly from from λήθη, the root it negates, "forgetting/concealment".

That is to demonstrate how similar/close "remembering/memory" is to "revelation and forgetting"...

Other significant terms that are apart of this particular lego set are the following (which ill let you investigate)

*) ἄρρητον
*) ἀπόρρητον

*) ἀπορία
*) πόρος

*) ἄφωνος λόγος

Roots/prefixes
ἀ- ("un", "not", ...); ἀπό- ("away"); ῥητός

Something can thus be (*) Revealed but unspeakable (*) Revealed but forbidden to speak or (*) Hidden and speakable / accessible through speech (i.e., you can talk about it, but you dont know it yet)
