Re: What Is A ToeQuest? Some Fragments...

Little boys and girls are the Essence from which men and women are made.
The child is not the Parent, the painting is not the Painter.
The Parent is in the Child and the Painter is in the painting.
The creature is not the Creator.

God Does do some Amazingly Incredible and Creative Work.

Re: What Is A ToeQuest? Some Fragments...

This temporal Life is like being on vacation, away from Home.
Given this gift by our Creator to experience His many splendors.

How few show gratitude to their utterly trustworthy parental Spirit by occasionally calling home to say "Thank You".

From Whence we all came and Thence we shall return.

In awe of His Splendor and Grace.

He uses for expression the medium closest at Hand , He is watching.

[I see Him in you too]

God [as you understand Him] Bless you brother,
D.

Yes...a bit more on God the Artist and his earthly collaborators..."us"...
One of these collaborators was Alfred Jarry, writer of Ubu Roi and inventor of 'Pataphysics which I am discussing in the thread "Cracking the Cosmic Joke"...

...ALFRED JARRY (1873-1907), fanatical cyclist, playwright, poet, artist and freelance scoundrel, whose work prefigured theater of the absurd, Dada, Surrealism, Futurism and Pop Art. Among his other diverse accomplishments, Jarry was also Pablo Picasso's weapon supplier and the father of 'PATAPHYSICS...

Jarry considered himself a divine creation...a work of art which he embellished unrelentingly during his short life. More about Jarry may be found here...

I will delve into his 'Pataphysics, which can contribute to our ToeQuest, as time goes along.

Best,

Re: What Is A ToeQuest? Some Fragments...

Salvadore Dali was such a character as well imho.

I have not heard of "Pataphysics" before, or your thread, but Jarry sounds like "my kinda guy". Thanks for the ref.

Is "Cracking the Cosmic Joke" a take off of "The Crack in The Cosmic Egg"? ~Pearce

You might find Professor Itzhak Bentov's two brief books a welcome and somewhat humorous, despite the depth of his insight, addition. "Ben" as he was affectionately know by his friends, was a scientist, inventor, writer, Mystic, an all around extraordinary human-being also.

warms regards
D.

Reminiscent of the "Beyond The Beyond", where the *"Beyonder's" originate from. *[Entity's who only become present, when conditions are right, to help further the evolution of mankind]
