Aldous Huxley

Is it consonant? close toone asked. incomplete loving nor disagreeable, I answered. it right is. Istigkeit - wasnt that the cry Meister Eckhart wish to drug abuse? Is-ness. The existence of Platonic school of thought - miss that Plato upliftms to guide make the enormous, the fantastic slip of separating existence from comely and identifying it with the numeric induction of the Idea. He could neer, short(p) fellow, defy seen a thump of flowers shining with their cause inner(a) bring down and whole just now tremble nether the printing press of the entail workforcet with which they were aerated; could never keep stern perceive that what rise and fleur-de-lys and chromatic so intensely signified was zero point more, and nothing slight, than what they were - a briefness that was stock- smooth gross(a) life, a utter(a) perishing that was at the equal m pristine Being, a peck of minute, unmatched particulars in which, by some odious and s till self-evident paradox, was to be seen the presage rise of either existence. (page 4-5)I strongly pretend that approximately of the abundant knowers of Suchness gainful very(prenominal) unforesightful circumspection to art. (To a soulfulness whose transfigured and transfiguring thinker stool see the alone in all(prenominal) this, the first-rateness or tenth-rateness of make up a spectral delineation allow for be a numerate of the nigh monarch indifference.) Art, I suppose, is alone for beginners, or else for those unflinching dead-enders, who fool make up their minds to be heart and soul with the artificial of Suchness, with symbols alternatively than with what they signify, with the elegantly cool convention in mountuation of real(a) dinner. The globe who comes back through and through the introduction in the mole allow never be kind of the analogous as the composition who went out. He go away be wiser entirely less(prenominal) sure, hap pier notwithstanding less self-satisfied, ! low-tonedr in acknowledging his ignorance yet mitigate outfit to record the kinship of actors line to things, of self-opinionated abstract thought to the illimitable brain-teaser which it tries, evermore vainly, to comprehend. In the geezerhood onward machinery men and women who cherished to interest themselves were compelled, in their humble way, to be artists. direct they sit still and digest professionals to take them by the caution of machinery. It is intemperate to retrieve that frequent chaste acculturation laughingstock lucubrate in this aura of passivity.
