Example text

A human being cannot become fully aware of himself/herself as a conscientious being other than in relation to another human being. As a factor of human intersubjectivity, empathy is grounded within the sentient nature of human intentional subjectivity; more will be said about this later. And so the logos of life is prompting, shaping, and carrying the dynamic, never stopping stream of life from its incipient moment of the self-individualization of beingness through its unfolding and growth till it decreases in energies and vital capacities and the extinction of the spark of life which has carried it occurs, timing itself all the while through its ontopoietic moves.

Embodiment: Vortex and Blueprint of Life—the Creation of the Real World To live means to be embodied, but since life is essentially sentient, life also means to be besouled. Living beingness surges into life with an ontopoietic project to be embodied. The logos of life that prompts it unfolds its primary steps in the self-individualization of beingness, which means its progressive embodiment. The body is the vehicle of its project, the knots of its articulations, the source and processor of its energies in ontopoietic unfolding and metamorphosis.

Thus, whether human cognitive intelligence registers it or not, life—bios— is timing itself. It measures itself, and thus its temporal spread, by its natural constructive advance in the cyclic cosmic order. ” The moves of the vital operations beginning with the lurking organic forces that emerge from seemingly non-organic ones, or the moves of a virus entering a cell in order to replicate itself, all these time themselves from “within,” and their advance marks and measures temporal progression in itself.
