The Idea behind life.

[mkirkpatrick]

What is Life? Liquid, Intelligence, Framing, Energy
Life is the principle of embodiment of mind into matter, first by the process of
involution, a principle within a principle, being Wrapped within. This outworking
process continues until there is a Momentary pause, and then there begins the
process of evolution, the unwrapping of the principles within. This process has been continuing for these past eons until we arrive at today. Where some of us
are self-aware-self-conscious, there has been much unfolding already. There is still much more to unfold as we hopefully grow older and wiser. We will begin to
see just how really connected we are. Just a thought! Well that's my little theory. What's yours???

Well, something that I really have observed is that everything that is alive has a mind and everything that has a mind is alive. This doesn't mean that one is the other. It means that having one means having the other. So there is no life without mind or mind without life. This is good to know because it is the first thing of that we can be sure that it is an implication for life, mind.

That is so true my young friend,maybe that could become a measure for science to use?

I don't know. I'm not really sure now of my statements in the other post. The meaning of the mind is having a will. Arthur Schopenhauer believed everything was will, his substitude for god (that is what all philosophers do, substitude god with other abstract ideas, not me, I want to liberate philosophy from that) was the will. The world is pure representation, it's theater. Only the thing behind everything that is, everything that happens and everything that has the possibility to happen is the will. For him, everything had a degree of liberty and a will depending on this. The human has a bigger level than animals, animals have a bigger level than plants, plants have a bigger level than materials... The thing is that if the apple that falls of the tree and hits the head of Newton had happened to Schopenhauer, he wouldn't have developed the three laws of motion, the constant G, the study of optics, etz... He would have simply said 'It was the will of the apple to fall from the tree and hit my head.' and that would be of it, and nothing in the world today would be like it is (to worst). Before Schopenhauer, people would ahave said it was the will of god that the apple fell of the tree and hit his head. You see, that's why I say philosophers do nothing but substitude god by other abstract terms ('because god wanted to' converted to 'because the apple wanted to' makes no difference). I don't think anymore that everything alive has a mind, if the three grows towards the parts where there is light it is because it has a physical function which is incharge of making it grow towards the light.

That may be how it appears on the surface,but peer beneath and you will find evidence
of intelligence at work,just keep an open mind.

Behind all manifested life is the is the intention within the idea,we are no more than an "idea" expressed within an illusary relative temporal universe,and motioned along by the
primary will,into the expanding orbit of the evolutionary cycle we now "find" ourselves
caught up in.

Consciousness is the blanket that permits this unfolding idea to express itself.

Dear Michael:
If you were called upon to describe your goal in life, what might your answer be?

Thats simple Rascal,to see all the many become the One,so that union would prevail,and
result in a quantum jump of realized reality?
