Salvation for the pseudo-physical to
metaphysics is not just from the sin of pseudo-ego to the grace of soul; that
is only the pseudo-bound psyche to free psyche polarity on the male side of the
gender fence on the church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axis stretching from the
southwest to the northeast points (or poles) of what I call the intercardinal
axial compass, so to speak. More significantly, it is deliverance from what
rules over and conditions pseudo-physics, as of the pseudo-physical, from a
chemical vantage-point on the opposite side of the gender fence; namely, the
pseudo-evil of spirit, which, in the event of the salvation of pseudo-males
from pseudo-physics to metaphysics, would be destined for counter-damnation to
the pseudo-goodness of pseudo-will, as from the free soma of chemistry to the
pseudo-bound soma of pseudo-metachemistry in what would then be an unequivocal
subordination to metaphysics.
Thus the chemical 'first', equivocally
hegemonic over pseudo-physics, would become the pseudo-metachemical 'last' in
their counter-damnation from free spirit to pseudo-bound will, whilst, in axial
contrast, the pseudo-physical 'last', equivocally subordinate to chemistry,
would become the metaphysical 'first', unequivocally hegemonic over the
pseudo-metachemical, whose fate would be equivalent to that of the proverbial
'lion' and/or 'wolf' that 'lies down' (through neutralization) with the 'lamb'
(of godly grace in Heaven), to take but one metaphorical parallel.
As for the state-hegemonic/church-subordinate
axis, its fate will be dependent on the degree to which (if at all) salvation and
counter-damnation are achieved on the stepped-up ('resurrected')
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axis. For, in the event of being denied its
customary chemical/pseudo-physical 'prey' the probable fate of the state
hegemonic would have less to do with salvation and counter-damnation than with
damnation and counter-salvation namely, in terms of the damnation of the
metachemical to pseudo-chemistry and, on the male side of the gender fence, the
counter-salvation of the pseudo-metaphysical to physics, though only as a
temporary situation pending an order of judgement intended to render the masses
of what had been a metachemical/pseudo-metaphysical and
physical/pseudo-chemical axial polarity eligible for lower-tier incorporation
with their metaphysical/pseudo-metachemical counterparts on what, in other
books by me, has been described as the 'triadic Beyond'
of what would, in
effect, be a pluralistic approach to revolutionary
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axial criteria. As the initial phase, at any
rate, of a process destined to culminate, many decades or centuries later, in a
metaphysical/pseudo-metachemical totalitarianism commensurate with the
apotheosis, as it were, of the 'Kingdom Come' process or, rather, of a process
which I, as a self-taught philosopher and self-proclaimed messiah tend to
identify with 'Kingdom Come', not least in relation to the democratic triumph
and, in a sense, triumph over democracy of Social Theocracy, the
politico-religious 'face' of Social Transcendentalism, and therefore the godly
concomitant of Heaven.
Flicking out of curiosity through the Daily
Mirror at my local library, I couldn't help but see in this tabloid
newspaper a reflection of the ugliness, brutality, rapaciousness, and carnality
of the masses, so that one can surmise the regular reader or, rather, browser
of this paper would see himself reflected, as in a cracked mirror, on a daily
basis.
Library computers are okay (if usually
frightfully slow) until some person, more often female, with a noisy and smelly
cold elects to sit right next to one, threatening one with a flight of germs.
Then, by contrast, they become something to escape from as quickly as possible!
Rubbing shoulders with the masses always makes
one dirty. I was intended for cleanliness which, as the saying goes, is closer
to godliness than to
outright manliness.
There is more than the abstraction that
negatively applies (in psyche) to somatic concretion; there is also, on the
male side of life, the abstraction that negatively applies (in soma) to psychic
concretion. For whereas on the female side of life soma precedes and
predominates (in somatic concretion) over psyche, whether to an absolute (3:1)
or a relative (2½:1½) extent, on the male side of life, by contrast, psyche
precedes and preponderates (in psychic concretion) over soma, whether to a
relative (2½:1½) or an absolute (3:1) extent. Therefore whereas psyche is
abstracted from soma in the one gender case (female), in the other gender case
(male) soma tends to be abstracted from psyche which, paradoxically, would seem
to be a concretion of wavicles as opposed, with free soma, to particles.
But just as there is a wavicle aspect (bound
psyche) to free somatic particles, so there would have to be a particle aspect
(bound soma) to free psychic wavicles, whether the ratio of the one to the
other happens to be absolute or relative; that is, germane to the noumenal or
to the phenomenal, to the ethereal or to the corporeal.
In general terms, it may be that the male side
of life is an abstraction from the female side, with secondary rather than
primary gender implications. But, in the particular instance of males, I have
always maintained that psyche precedes and preponderates over soma, so that the
latter is in effect an abstraction from the former which, as free psyche, is
its concrete, that is to say, fundamental precondition.
To transcend the body (bound soma) is, in the
male case, to return to the fundamentals of male life in free psyche, which has
less to do with God the Father, or godfatherliness, than with Heaven the Holy
Soul, the actual foundation of metaphysics, or ground of joyful being, whose
extrapolation is divine taking (truth, or godliness).
To transcend the mind (bound psyche) is, in the
female case, to return to the fundamentals of female life in free soma, which
has less to do with Hell the Clear Spirit than with Devil the Mother (free
will), the actual foundation of metachemistry, or ground of beautiful doing,
whose extrapolation is diabolic giving (love).
Whereas the male can lose his ego and/or soul
to a female, becoming her pseudo-male subordinate, the female, not having ego
or soul in relation to free psyche, can only lose her will and/or spirit to a
male, becoming his pseudo-female subordinate.
So whereas the fate of the 'lost male', or
pseudo-male, is to mirror, through pseudo-free soma, the free will and/or
spirit of the dominating female, and to do so on inferior ratio terms, the fate
of the 'lost female', or pseudo-female, is to mirror, through pseudo-free
psyche, the free ego and/or soul of the dominating male, but to likewise do so
on inferior ratio terms. Moreover, this 'mirroring' of the hegemonic gender's
dominance from a subordinate position will not be couched in the same terms as
the dominating gender, but in terms applicable to or characteristic of the
subordinate gender, be it pseudo-male or pseudo-female.
Hence under female domination, the metachemical
free soma of beauty and love will be paralleled, in pseudo-metaphysical free
soma, by pseudo-truth and pseudo-joy; the chemical free soma of pride and
strength will be paralleled, in pseudo-physical free soma, by pseudo-pleasure
and pseudo-knowledge (carnal knowledge).
Contrariwise, with male domination, the
physical free psyche of knowledge and pleasure will be paralleled, in
pseudo-chemical free psyche, by pseudo-strength and pseudo-pride; the
metaphysical free psyche of joy and truth will be paralleled, in
pseudo-metachemical free psyche, by pseudo-love and pseudo-beauty.
Therefore neither beauty nor pride, to take the
female elemental fulcra, will be paralleled, or 'mirrored', by the subordinate
pseudo-male, whose respective pseudo-elemental fulcra will be pseudo-truth and
pseudo-pleasure.
Likewise, neither knowledge nor joy, to take
the male elemental fulcra, will be paralleled, or 'mirrored', by the
subordinate pseudo-female, whose respective pseudo-elemental fulcra will be
pseudo-strength and pseudo-love.
The concrete basis of the psyche, if I may be
so bold as to put it that way, is of course the brain stem and spinal cord of
the central nervous system; for it is that system which is akin to the candle
in which the flame of soul burns to shed superconscious (godly) light upon the
darkness of the world. As for the ego, its concrete basis has to do with the
brain and, in particular, the so-called 'new brain', or cerebrum, and is
therefore a mode of psyche more corporeal than ethereal and correspondingly
less absolute (noumenal) than relative (phenomenal), with a personal rather
than superpersonal (universal) connotation.
Some are fated to tell tall tales, others to
write short stories. Neither, however, would have a clue about what it means to think.
Metaphysical heat in the soul, which is the
supersensible functioning of the spinal cord of the central nervous system,
engenders metaphysical light in the superconscious mind, which is one with the
soul as God is One with Heaven and truth is one with joy. But such metaphysical
heat, which is soul, joy, heaven, etc., is psychic through and through, and the
concrete basis, in the spinal cord, of metaphysical light in the
superconscious, truth, godliness, etc. Therefore without metaphysical heat
there would be no metaphysical light, without the supersensibility of soul, no
superconsciousness of mind. God, in short, would not exist without Heaven,
could never be independent of Heaven, any more than truth could be independent
of joy, since they are essentially one and the same, the inner and outer
manifestations of metaphysical psyche.
Antithetical to this is metachemistry, like
absolute alpha to absolute omega, absolute female (superfeminine) to absolute
male (supermasculine), and whereas metaphysical freedom, which is psychic, or
of the psyche, has to do with Heaven and God, joy and truth, metachemical
freedom, which is somatic, or of soma, has to do, by contrast, with the Devil
and Hell, beauty and love, in that order. For the fulcrum, or representative
aspect, of metachemistry is will, free will, and just as free soul in
metaphysics engenders a corresponding free order of mind (superconsciousness),
so free will in metachemistry engenders a corresponding free order of spirit
(supersensuousness), which is the love that is correlative with beauty.
One might say that metachemical heat in the
will or, more specifically, in the will to life, which is the supersensual
functioning of the sexual organs and, more specifically in this elemental case,
of the womb, engenders metachemical light in the supersensuous spirit, which is
one with the will as Hell is One with the Devil (Devil the Mother) and love one
with beauty. But such metachemical heat, which is will, beauty, the devil,
etc., is somatic through and through, and the concrete basis, in the womb, of
metachemical light in the supersensuous, love, hell, etc. Therefore without
metachemical heat there would be no metachemical light, without the
supersensuality of will, no supersensuousness of spirit. Hell, in short, would
not exist without the Devil, could never be independent of the Devil, any more
than love could be independent of beauty, since they are fundamentally one and
the same, the outer and inner manifestations of metachemical soma.
Consequently the antithesis between
metachemistry and metaphysics, absolute alpha and absolute omega, is complete
in every sense, from the somatic fact of Devil the Mother
preceding Hell the Clear Spirit to the psychic fact of Heaven the Holy Soul
preceding God the Father the absolute alpha starting from without (will) and
working inwards (spirit), the absolute omega starting from within (soul) and
working outwards (mind), so that they are not only opposites in every
respect but completely incompatible. That is why the metaphysical position (in
both free psyche and bound soma) cannot properly exist except through complete
independence of the metachemical position, whose free soma will otherwise
preclude all but a truncated metaphysics comprised, as with the Christian and
in particular Roman Catholic tradition, of the bound soma (illusion and woe,
the Son of God and the Holy Spirit of Heaven) of the crucifixional paradigm.
In order for God the Father (godfatherliness)
to properly exist as the psychic corollary of Heaven the Holy Soul (the actual
fulcrum of metaphysics), not only would Heaven the Holy Soul have to be
acknowledged, but the subterfuge, stemming from the Judaic roots of the
Christian tradition, of hyping Devil the Mother (beautiful free will) as God
the Father
would have to be categorically abandoned, so that instead of a
metaphysics (necessarily bogus) accountable to metachemistry, as Christ to the
Creator, or the Son to the so-called Father, we had a more genuine order of
metaphysics comprised of the free psyche as
well as the bound soma which was completely independent of
metachemistry, and thus of all Creator-ism and allegiance, via the Bible (and
the Old Testament in particular) to the materialistic roots of the Christian,
or Western, tradition.
Such a metaphysical independence could only be
global or universal in character, beyond Roman Catholic Christianity and
antithetical to Judaism. For it would not be about the 'One God' or, for that
matter, about any 'Three in One' extrapolation thereof which could be
identified with both Catholic and Protestant traditions. On the contrary, it
would be about the 'One Heaven', the only heaven of Heaven the Holy Soul, whose
'Kingdom' lies within.
Amen that wonderful English-language German film
about the exploitation of Zyklon B in the liquidation of Jews which somehow
remains praiseworthy even though it tends to combine the worst aspects of Night
of the Generals with the worst aspects of Massacre in Rome,
if you get my drift. Not that one could accuse Ulrich Mόhe's character in the
film of being implicated in any such reactionary or sanctimonious tendencies!
What has been logically established in the
foregoing pages is that the psychic concretion of soul in the spinal cord has
to be contrasted with the somatic concretion of will in the womb, as one would
contrast the fulcrum of metaphysics with the fulcrum of metachemistry, noting
that whereas truth is the 'psychic light' of the soul's 'joyful heat', love is
the 'somatic light' of the will's 'beautiful heat', the former being
superconscious and the latter supersensuous.
Thus the absolute, or noumenal/ethereal, alpha
and omega is a contrast not only between beauty and joy, with truth and love
their respective corollaries, but equally or equivalently between Devil the
Mother and Heaven the Holy Soul, which has to be distinguished from any
fanciful or simplistic antithesis between, say, the Devil and God or,
alternatively, Hell and Heaven the stuff, it must be said, of populist
delusion and mystical claptrap.
As in the somatic Beginning, so not somatically
in the End but, on the contrary, psychically an entirely different order of
concretion that is supermasculine as opposed to superfeminine.
Although the kinds of heat that characterize
alpha and omega could not be more dissimilar, I have tended in the past (I
think correctly) to identify metachemical heat with heat per se and
metaphysical heat, by contrast, with light, as though to distinguish more
sharply if on the basis of a generalization alpha from omega and each of
these from their relative counterparts 'down below' in the phenomenal/corporeal
realms of motion and force, reserving for the noumenal antithesis an equation
with space and time, and for the phenomenal antithesis an equation with volume
and mass, so that heat = space, light = time, motion = volume, and force =
mass, as in a distinction between will and soul with the former antithesis, but
spirit and ego with the latter, an antithesis more elementally in accordance
with water and vegetation (earth) than with fire and air. Or, in religious
terms, with Purgatory and the Earth as opposed, 'up above', with Hell and
Heaven, or something to that general effect.
But these quadruplicities appertain to a more
simplistic logical structure than that to which I have more recently committed
my pen (I confess to scribbling into a notebook as a writer rather than using a
keyboard to begin with, in the manner of what I would call a pseudo-writer who
not only does not write but
prints artificially via his so-called typewriter and/or computer). Nonetheless,
the ascription of a quadruplicity of options to each element (and even
pseudo-element) provides interesting food for thought. Namely, that if the
fulcrum of metachemistry is somatic heat, or wilful beauty, then its somatic
concomitant, love, must be a 'once-bovaryized' (compared to chemical spirit)
order of spirit appertaining not to volume, like spirit per se, but to space. And that if the fulcrum of metaphysics is
psychic light, or soulful joy, then its psychic concomitant, truth, must be a
'once-bovaryized' (compared to physical ego) order of ego appertaining not to
mass, like ego per se, but to
time.
Likewise, to extend the argument down into the
phenomenal/corporeal realms of motion and force, volume and mass, if the
fulcrum of chemistry is volumetric motion, or spiritual pride, then its somatic
concomitant, namely strength, must be a 'once-bovaryized' (compared to
metachemical will) order of will appertaining not to heat but to volume.
And, finally, that if the fulcrum of physics is
massive force, or intellectual knowledge, then its psychic concomitant,
pleasure, must be a 'once-bovaryized' (compared to metaphysical soul) order of
soul appertaining not to light but to mass.
Now what applies to the free aspects of each
gender element, whether with regard to soma (female) or to psyche (male), would
also be applicable to their respective bound aspects, whether psychic (female)
or somatic (male), where there would be bovaryized orders of negative ego and
soul in the female case and bovaryized orders of negative will and spirit in
the male case, neither of which require further exegesis here, since it is a
subject which has been dealt with in previous texts by me and which, if added
to the above, would only further complicate and possibly confuse or obfuscate
matters were I to attempt a definition of the respective bound aspects not
only of each element as described above, but also, and subordinately, of the
pseudo-elements which accompany them on both pseudo-free and pseudo-bound
terms, compliments of the pressure being brought to bear from the hegemonic
element, be it female (and freely somatic) or male (and freely psychic).
It is with the utmost reluctance that I commit
my thoughts to paper in the form of writing; though I have to confess to
subsequently taking a certain pleasure in reading them!
It may well be that, just as in the noumenal
alpha and omega, free speech is the enemy of free thought, so, in the
phenomenal alpha and omega, free verse is the enemy of a free press.
I only value writing to the extent that it
reflects free thought. Any other kind of writing normally either bores or
disgusts me.
I have planted the emblem or, if you like, flag
of Social Theocracy on the peak of philosophic thought. For Social Theocracy is
itself the peak of philosophic thought, which stems from a bovaryized ego
call it 'superego' that is pro-superconscious in its advocacy of the
supersensibility of Heaven the Holy Soul. Such a bovaryized ego differs from
conscious ego by being less a product or attribute of the brain (with
particular reference to the so-called 'new brain', or cerebrum) than of the
brain stem (the so-called 'old brain', or cerebellum) which is closer to the
spinal cord and therefore to the core of the self, the concrete basis of the
soul in the central nervous system. Consequently it has a tendency, being
deeper than ego, to be metaphysical, whereas the ego, when not selfishly
egocentric or egotistical, is more likely to be co-opted, in the axial
equivalent of a Faustian Pact, indirectly to the service of the will and
directly, in male gender polarity, to the service of pseudo-soul, whose pseudo-essence
is pseudo-woeful and therefore at an antithetical remove from the joyfulness of
soul proper, as pseudo-metaphysics from metaphysics, the pseudo-bound psyche of
the one contrasting, under metachemical pressure, with the free psyche of the
other, unequivocally hegemonic over a prostrate pseudo-metachemistry, the
proverbial 'lion' and/or 'wolf' that 'lies down', compliments of
neutralization, with the 'lamb' of godliness and, more accurately in respect of
the metaphysical fulcrum being in soul (joy) rather than ego (truth), of
heavenliness.
As an Irish-born Irish citizen long resident in
England, I have to say that the Irish writers who have had most influence upon
me and whom I have most admired were in all cases but one namely James Joyce
Protestant, starting with Oscar Wilde and continuing via W.B. Yeats to Samuel
Beckett.
The absence of George Bernard Shaw from the
above-mentioned influential Irish writers has less to do with the fact that I
haven't read all that much of his work than with his commitment to theatre and
reputation as a leading playwright. Wilde, Joyce, Yeats, and Beckett may have
written plays, but they were also, amongst other things, poets and novelists,
and therefore more deserving, in my estimation, of respect as writers.
Of contemporary Irish writers, I would say that
John Banville is the one whom I most admire, having read at least two of his
novels, namely Dr Copernicus and The Book of EVIDENCE, both of
which were of a class I would consider to be European rather than simply parochial
or Irish.
I feel I should have some kind of reputation as
a literary transcriber as well as a philosopher and writer, having transcribed
some forty or so books, including James Joyce's Ulysses and Aldous
Huxley's Point Counter Point, but, of course, the literary
establishment in England prefers to believe that I don't exist rather like
the absence of the Republic of Ireland from the weather map of the British
Isles on the BBC, which pedantically sticks to a United Kingdom format. I am
just as much of a nonentity in
Because they suffer from an ethnic blind spot
with regards to church-hegemonic axial criteria
as traditionally applicable
to Roman Catholicism and, in particular, to Irish Catholics, the British
intelligentsia, who are almost invariably Protestant, have little or no
capacity for metaphysics and, hence, for a comprehensive approach to philosophy
that, in setting everything out in its proper place, could do justice to truth,
which is to say, to metaphysics. The want of this dimension in their
metachemically-orientated Weltanchauung renders their
philosophy incapable of metaphysical verisimilitude and nothing more than a
reflection of their ethnic limitations as
Protestants, whose
philosophy, being scientifically based in empiricism, is fundamentally false,
that is to say, false to truth, since overly factual.
Yet they can never admit this, and therefore
they have no choice but to ignore or trash anyone who, coming from a Roman
Catholic background, is capable of doing justice to metaphysics if, in this
day and age, on more than Catholic terms. As, for instance, in relation to
Social Theocracy and/or Social Transcendentalism which, unlike Roman
Catholicism, would be determined to do complete justice to metaphysics and
thereby, in the event of attaining power, consign to the rubbish heap of
history those metachemical constraints which always preclude metaphysics from
being true to itself in terms of free psyche as well as the
all-too-prevalent bound soma (of the crucifixional paradigm). For when you only
have the latter, the truncated metaphysics that follows from a deference to
metachemistry, as to Creator-ism in the Old Testament, is effectively bogus and
only too susceptible, for want of a soulful fulcrum, to being subsumed, down a
'Sacred Heart' plane from its entitlement to 'Sacred Lungs', into a
pseudo-metachemistry which is itself doubly bogus for want of due deference,
through subordination, to metaphysics proper, that is, to a full complement of
metaphysics (free psyche as well as bound soma, not just
the latter) which, did it but exist, would preclude, through some
transcendental meditation-like aloofness, pseudo-metachemistry from being
subsumed into a triangle dominated, in perpendicular vein, by metachemistry,
and by a type of metachemistry, moreover, unequivocally hegemonic over a
prostrate pseudo-metaphysics, the preordained 'fall guy' for slag or
denigration or devaluation or religious persecution from both metachemical and
pseudo-metachemical standpoints, both of which are, by contrast, on the female
side of the gender divide and therefore all too partial to an anti-male
perspective from a sanctimonious standpoint designed to camouflage their
basically anti-religious natures.
The extraordinary sensitivity and brutal
opposition of average people, including immediate neighbours, to thought, as to
thinking by a solitary man, has to be experienced to be believed! Clearly, most
people are not designed to think but, rather, to oppose thinking in those who
can, as though it were an affront to sanity (as conceived, in superficial
terms, by the majority).
Philosophy is not a profession (as with
university academics); it is a vocation, demanding the utmost perseverance,
asceticism, and aloofness from worldly entanglements. The philosopher is a kind
of secular monk, who lives, as far as possible, in his private cell, shut off
from everyday life as from a threat to being.
After over twenty-one years of Bangladeshi rule
at Hermiston Avenue, London N8, I feel like someone who has 'done time' in a
concentration camp or harsh prison from which, at length, he is now free,
albeit not, as yet, from the psychological scars and painful, humiliating
memories he carries within!
For me, life at
It could now be that, with my attic flat
overlooking
Up here, on my Zarathustrian heights, where I
look down upon Alexandra Palace from a room around which the wind howls like a
deranged Banshee, I rejoice in my release from the Bangladeshi hothouse in
whose suffocating atmosphere suffocating to literature and music as well as
to the spirit I languished for many a long year without promise of reprieve
or hope of liberation. At night, when the January wind assaults the rafters and
rattles the windowpanes whilst the ventilator sighs mournfully and seems to funnel
breaths of cold air across my bed, things couldn't be more different from how
it was in the airless prison whose central heating seemed especially merciless
at night as I lay in bed, too close to the radiator for comfort, with pyjamas
and sheets and duvet alike drenched in torrents of sweat from which, under the
weight of my listlessness, there was no escape, since no way of turning the
radiator off or of having the thermostat settings, which were at the landlord's
discretion, changed for the better.
If that implacable heating system was hell, or
an aspect of the greater hell in which I suffocatingly languished, breathing
with considerable difficulty, and then in a laboured fashion that always
threatened to choke me, then the cold draughts of air from the ventilator next
to my bed up here, in the bedroom of this attic flat, is more akin to heaven,
and I welcome them with outstretched arms as one who has emerged from some kind
of fiery fundamentalism dominated by heat to an airy transcendentalism whose chill
winds, transmuted into cold draughts, is the release of my spirit and salvation
of my soul.
Whereas the primary sex (female) devaluates and
evaluates in typically objective vein, the secondary sex (male) revaluates
(re-evaluates) and transvaluates in typically subjective vein, since the
secondary sex is, in general terms, an abstraction from the more concrete, or
somatic, nature of the primary sex, whose lives typically revolve around
reproduction.
Just as Progressive Rock is the zenith of rock,
so Heavy Metal is rock music's nadir, a branch of rock that digs itself into a
deep and one might say 'black' hole from which, like extreme republican
socialism and/or socialist republicanism, there is no escape and certainly no
possibility of divine redemption. Rather does Heavy Metal worship death, whose
personification is Satan.
Reluctantly I got out of bed before eight
o'clock this morning in order to go up to Wood Green and tend to some pressing
business. I really hate getting up early, especially when it's freezing.
Actually, I don't think I've recovered from the ordeal yet, several hours
later, since my nerves have been on-edge all day and I haven't had so much as
one single interesting thought. Worry and strain, of which there is only too
much in life, can really destroy a man, even if a woman doesn't.
