Yes, that is so true! Some people might prefer a stable and definite goal, others like me prefer the idea of an always already changing goalpost. Never being always becoming. A nice quote, which on face value sounds very simple but which is very complex when you think about it, goes something like: you cannot read the same book twice. Every move you make in the cosmic game we are playing changes the rules and the game.
The two philosophers are Deleuze and Guattari. They are notorious for how difficult they are and the misreadings linked to them. A newbie to Hive and fellow philosopher, @newharvest, will attempt in some posts to make these philosophers more accessible!
@fermentedphil I think "being vs becoming" and "product vs process" might be an excellent place to start with Deleuze and Guattari! I'm on it...
This will be an interesting post! I hope to read something soon. I am also going to venture into this direction this year.
I like where this is going! ...seeing it as a constantly changing flow rather then just going from A to B in a straight line, which happens when in life?
Very nice way to picture it! You are never the same reader again...
but also @newharvest
...I like that point of bringing it together like that!
Exactly. I think the western mind is so fixated on fixing things and placing them in neat boxes, but when you really ponder things and "zoom" in on things, everything becomes fuzzy and "flowing".
for sure!!
