RT @nick_routledge: @MrEwanMorrison @irenecnwoye The culture? Already with us. But not, as yet, evenly distributed. A challenge? Blinkers. It is both a realm and the means by which the realm makes itself known. Panikkar: "The method is the very reality which the method helps to disclose." Gotta get with the realm, friends.

Copy of tweet here: Fascinating, the fascination of it. But has AI yet stumbled upon 1 Cor 1:19? Incompleteness itself as dimensional blind. Not digital mists but fog at sea. The beauty of a seasonal creek. Silence, radiant with tender presence. Terroir of humus. *whispers* Incarnation experience. 1/ Yes, even as our tendency to conflate the network's narrative edgeline with 'The State of the World', amounts to a category fallacy of cosmic proportions - as if the totality of planetary history and reality amounts to a downstream, behind-the-times, lesser subset, somewhere. end/ Which brings us to the dirt under the fingernails of these, my transmitting fingers, uniting us all, root and branch, flesh and blood, off-screen and on-screen, in the dynamic interplay of a single helix of Presence. It is time, friends. "Eternity utters a day." - Heschel

Copy of tweet here: 1/ Yes, even as our tendency to conflate the network's narrative edgeline with 'The State of the World’, amounts to a category fallacy of cosmic proportions - as if the totality of planetary history and reality amounts to a downstream, behind-the-times, lesser subset, somewhere. David, hi. Surprised to stumble upon a fundamentally secular community of interest and vernacular addressing "the political and temporal dynamism of eschatology" as it relates to "the possibility of a messianic Politics to Come." Nils' "radical philosophical event" comes to mind. 5/ In eschatological terms, an extinction tyranny of materialist and religious fetishism urges a summons beyond all cultural or religious containment. Time, then, for a fresh start transcending the co- evolutionary limits of the world's secular and religious imaginaries.

Passage boundary: Could be that AI Source: Preserve quoted-author distinctions; the containing tweet does not confer authorship. @EuroConOfficial @EsmeLKPartridge Could be that AI functionally represents the latest, cosmic twist of an algorithmically-supercharged parsing mechanism. And perhaps the WWW exists to undo itself. Either way, getting Real and getting Down defines an existential essential of the Soul's walk Home. Dignity, yes.
Open original document@MrEwanMorrison So obvious that we do not see it? Stevens: "The way through the world is harder to find than the way beyond it." Time to recalibrate then, through the root, concrete, archetypal substrate of immediate, grounded, unmediated, native experience. Homecoming, literally, to the Real.

Bly's 'wounds of abstraction' characterizing an all-encompassing pathology of consciousness; the totalizing hegemony this Spectacle of reification invisibly maintains; and homecoming to concrete reality as the salvational pivot returning us, finally, to freedom's ground. Quote 3/ We use the terms 'truth of the neighborly' or 'realocalization' to describe this emphatic, planetary shift in experiential locus, away from mediated Spectacle toward direct, proximate participation in a dynamic mutualism far transcending human limitations, genius and powers.

The original meaning of 'apocalypsis'? Not 'cataclysm' but 'unveiling': an abrupt sunburst of revelation yoking the irruption of a crowning authority to concrete, planetary, political reality, for ever. t.co/Q76IFU7bzM t.co/nRcpwYLNso
