A forceful concept of peace wherein abidance of current human societal and mental constructs is considered the true path to well being and enlightenment.

If only that would be the case, we all would be golden floating evolved beings centuries back.

The path not taken upon this premise is considered delusional. It's a participartory parody of calling the one with The Eyes to See Beyond the Illusion, the so called delusionist.

I support the ethos that you're creating for the individual, but I don't think Faustian civilization can live forever. The creation of the conceptual Ubermensch is an ideal that, as a civilization, we're failing to achieve. Instead I propose we uplift ourselves facing forward towards building the next civilization rather than attempting to preserve this one.

Excellent comment Paul. I agree completely and I think "meaning" in the Universe is Hegelian as you say, It is the cosmos working itself out. Reality is constantly updating and changing, as "the map is not the territory". I like your statement about delusions of grandeur!! Hyatt taught me years back that many people are simply "legends in there own minds".

And sorry, whilst fucking about I seem to have accidentally deleted the original comment
