Kenosis, Orthopraxy, Description

There must be something inherent in this world, something descriptive of what is, and I must find it. I live so I may fulfill this search.

This is the only thing that matters.

I love this world in all its indifferent, transcendent awe.

Have you ever looked at a math problem and felt the problem itself grasp your soul with its hands and guide you closer to it? That feeling of standing at the precipice of the solution - this is how I feel.

Equal parts study and action.

A rabbi said: "action precedes moral clarity." On the surface level, this is the affirmation of orthopraxy. On a deeper level, this suggests an objective moral reality. In his religious framework, that would be the Torah.

Synthesis, synthesis, synthesis. We must synthesize disparate goods into the whole Good (Enneads Beauty). This is the power available to us.

Create "a repository of pure gold within me" so that in the fleeting moments where I become nothing I can write something.

Study and consent to becoming nothing.

Please remove my good and evil inclinations within me.

Leave me as nothing so I can write as a sacrament of undiluted love.

This is all I exist to do.
