Reminiscent of the "Beyond The Beyond", where the "Beyonder's" originate from.

Several are present on this forum as we speak, and occasionally manifest themselves as wisdom. Unbe knownst to the mind body organism, in many cases as of yet, in which they conjointly cohabitate. [of the ones I am aware of, though not all inclusive by any means, Michael, Mel. n2t, Nobody, Emm only to name a few, apologies if anyone feels left out, or not recognized as such, unintentionally]

It's a very autistic concept[other worldly] to envision/consider. No single part is greater than The Whole.

Further,

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.

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.

Dali...yes...

The "Cosmic Joke" I'm referring to in the thread is not the same as Pearce's Cosmic Egg crack which threatened to undo Humpty Dumpty completely via discussions of the exploits of two (interestingly fictitious) characters, Jesus and Castenada's Don Juan among, other things. The "Cosmic Joke" I discuss has more to do with Timothy Freke's Laughing Jesus than Pearce's miracle workers.

Just the title of Stalking the Wild Pendulum, I think, qualified Itzhak Bentov as a true "piece of work" and the work itself, indeed, exposed "an all around extraordinary human-being" as well.

But aren't we all walking, talking, constantly getting into trouble pieces of God's performance art?

I though it was Jesus Peter and Mary, the wayward soul, in "Laughing Jesus"? Very funny spoof though and so true. I love their efforts, clear as a bell.

I have D.J.C., but the psychedelic route didn't do much for me, some useful insights though I admit.

Working Art in motion.

They were a visual of the paradox between [as I see it] the physical and the metaphysical.

Being of one birth, Only one will experience death though.

A twice born lives forever and walks once more, in the next realm, beyond, a new creature steps forth from within an old one.

and you are most welcome

All is always well.

LOVE ya.

Of course, I simply stated that the art is not the Artist, merely a representation of the Artist. An eloquent masters piece indeed.

There is an other, albeit an ever so faint by comparison, hearing, one can become attuned, accustomed too, that is beyond what is considered the "normal range" of human hearing.

It is most accurately described as, The Voice of The Silence. One might say it has a certain, bandwidth. [current]

I think you're thinking of THE GOSPEL OF THE SECOND COMING, also by Freke & Gandy. THE LAUGHING JESUS is their neo-gnostic philosophical piece.

LOL, I didn't take time for my A.D.D. Med. this morning!

Falling short on sub-categorizations lately.

I'm in "shatters".

Metanoia and Metamorphosis is a singular event appearing as two.

Am I today, a Butterfly, Dreaming it is a man?"
