Light Filled Agenda

This is a short essay I penned on opening up to a light filled agenda, to understand we have the freedom to create our own meaning to life.

Firstly I want to introduce the ancient Aristotelian idea of form which talks about form in the meta-physical sense which is that which existed prior to matter. In other words that which existed prior to creation as in fundamental consciousness. If you want to put a religious perspective to it, as in John, in the beginning was the word and the word was GOD. 

Now GOD gets such a bad press these days and is in any case is ineffable, so from here on in I will use the word ONE, to be less affronting to non-theists. 

I also want to avoid saying this or that in a theological sense, so that the ONE in my thinking is analogous to the ONE true light of love. 

As I cannot say what GOD is or how such a ONE could conceivably exist, given there is so much suffering in the world, I have opted to metaphorically embrace the idea of a ONE consistent reference. 

A ONE who is always consistent equates  metaphorically to a ONE, as in science, relates to light, because we know nothing exceeds the speed of light. 

This idea came to me as metaphor, as the one true image of a ONE whose ego-less light of love is evident in subsequent creation, but whose light remains untarnished, but is not in the universe, to respond only in terms of endearment in a spiritual sense, if you will in a non materialistic manner, in what is a deterministic universe. 

Rather, the ONE true light offers encouragement and a sense of endearment to the universe, from the remnant that lives within us. The lonely memory in its own pure presence. This is the idea that evolved consciousness is what enables humans, in rare moments, to be aware of what already exists. It is not something new, as it was always there, so that it is a step up in awareness along the long road to a more advanced form of consciousness. 

However, the idea of a ONE omnipresent and omniscience presence in the universe cannot be taken seriously, if we in turn, are to take science seriously. Those ideas of the past philosophers cannot be reconciled with that to which we are held hostage on planet earth, to which suffering and evil can exist in tandem with goodness and love, so that it remains a mystery spread out in symmetry to arrive again at the point to which I began, with form and consciousness. 

There remains nothing in the world other than what is perceived to be our reality, except to the extent it feels real as is necessary for us to exist, so to that extent everything is illusory just as is the idea of time. We can only relate time and space together as space- time since time on its own is meaningless. This all means we are free to create our own meaning within a deterministic world so as to open up to the light filled agenda within us. 

The dissolution in the twilight years or sickness, be it physical or mental, does not detract from new life emerging to spread out again as in eternal recurrence. Those memories remain just as energy doesn’t go anyone, but rather takes on another physical form of one kind or another.
