It is being imprinted onto your deeper self. One day it will be recrystallized into a new form that expand the horizon of awareness.

Facts are illusions that are collectively agreed upon to be true. It is not about how many are agreeing but does it nourish your spirit or not.

>> No.22054222

>>22054217
if the opposite of your opinion nourishes my spirit, then I guess that'd be a fact too. Which'd the be the 'actual' fact then, your or mine?

>> No.22054236

>>22054222
From within your reality/monad – your fact would be the 'actual' fact, corresponding to your particular truth axis.

>> No.22054242

>>22054217
>Facts are illusions
Is that a fact?

>> No.22054250

>>22054236
so there are no objective facts in that case, then why isn't every philosopher revered and held to equal pedestal instead of a selected few?

>> No.22054264

>>22054250
Because like is attracted to like. Within the regime of truth certain aspects are priviliged according to the ruling dogma, or the actual fact, which is an illusion that is legitimate and collectively agreed upon.

>> No.22054289

I am tired of you fags posting this shit every week. if you are going to forget everything then you are fucking retarded. the """"profound"""" shit isn't read to be fucking remembered nigger, once read it is assimilated to your 'soul'.

>Within the regime of truth certain aspects are privileged according to the ruling dogma,
yes, the aspect of speaking the objective truth, and philosophers that do it are held up above the rest

>> No.22054298

>>22054289
say every profound thing you ever read big brain

>> No.22054310

>>22054293
The problem is that those regimes of truth change quite often. And so are the philiosophers 'that are held up above the rest'.

>> No.22054320

>>22054310
not really, the fact that schopenhauer and kierkegaard are held up above the rest has not changed and will not either

>> No.22054338

>>22054320
It shows that you are merely attracted to the names included to the canon without realizing the insurmountable difference as between these two. Usually the name gets leveled to fit into the epistemic frame and only then accepted, as not to disrupt the entire setting.

'Truths as illusions' is fairly close to Kierkegaardian notion of the 'Knight of Faith'.
