XXIV. The Discovery and Mystery of Existence

 

The discovery and mystery of existence inspires me to wonder and dream. Who am I? What am I? Where am I? When am I? How am I? Why am I? I think these grand enigmatic questions of identity surrounding the discovery and mystery of existence involve infinite elements hidden beyond the grasp of the senses and tools available to my fractal infernal temporal seed body. Even with all the marvels of modern scientific achievement, super computers, space telescopes, and electron microscopes once one attempts to explain the existence of one totality, one has crossed over from truth and knowledge of theory based on scientifically reproducible discovery to myth. 

Within our global culture, communities of faithful believers self organize around a favored way of ornamenting a model of the existence of one totality with myth. This way of ornamenting a model of the existence of one totality with myth helps communities of faithful believers to create an identity for themselves. With their favored ways of ornamenting a model of the existence of one totality with myth, communities of faithful believers answer the grand enigmatic questions of identity surrounding the discovery and mystery of existence. They explain to themselves and to the rest of the global culture who, what, where, when, how, and why they are, and how they came into existence. Through art, music, drama, science, and myths of creation, they explain the existence of one totality. With ideology, they fashion reality.

It may be of paramount importance to our continued survival that we learn to answer these grand enigmatic questions of identity surrounding the discovery and mystery of existence in a manner that leads us to have the highest esteem of the existence of one totality.   Perhaps if we recognize the limitations of our senses and perceptions; adopt an agnostic position;  and ornament a model of the  existence of one totality with myth and fantasy that produces the most optimistic thoughts, beliefs, and expectations about the existence of one totality then we will put ourselves in the best possible position to take control of our emotions, overcome obstacles, and progress towards victory. Maybe if we devote energy, space, and time to thoughts, beliefs, and expectations about higher self and higher world, then doing so will lead us to a higher future.
