One never faces the self, always running around and about almost everywhere and saying there is hardly time enough for what one wishes to do as the subject is seen to be always on and never quite in a mode of being here. The idea of being here is revelled in meditative and similar quarters or the cry has always been to request a pause mode. The world suddenly has been put a halt since at least recently as it is trying to come to terms with a new enforced lifestyle through something it never expected where each an everyone is seen as a suspect or threat to one’s being. It has suddenly daunted on each and everyone that a hectic and passionate lifestyle may not do. The bourgeois type of being may have gone for ever as a new call is sounded to awake and reside in a new mode that of facing up to the facticity of being where one no longer may be in an erratic mode. The hectic lifestyle….running bout here and everywhere with never being in one place albeit bodily with the mind always being elsewhere and never quite facing to the here and now. Suddenly, all is changing…
The call is to come face to face with reality and acknowledge that a lifestyle of the mundane of the materialism may have been brushed aside on towards a new form calling one to pause and take a deep breath before moving along. To do so may no longer require that one keeps postponing what is most important for oneself or a way to be where previously style of division and hatred had taken over. In some ways, one may never assume that suddenly all will be well as the mind carry on bearing grudges against the other and with it emerges frictions giving rise to undue misunderstandings and where this is so, almost any aspect of negativism may appear on the arena.
Pettiness or hatred coupled with conceit never quite disappear as will arrogance of the few towards the many where divisions are hailed around rather than a unity of being which may help resolve living in a transient world now in paused mode.
The choice to be may never be as clear and yet the naïve still nourishes the view that there may be a return to the ways of deeply rooted fragmentation where they prosper or simply seeks contentment unlimited which is never an alternative now as people everywhere start wising up and question the way to be, not via a mode of trying in outdoing of the other which is not the way to be.
A new world order awaits where the fanatics of division or hatred may no longer find that their ways any longer bear fruits. The proletariat wising up may also mean that a question mark is placed on lifestyle on what is to be done and not to be done but importantly on how to be done. A point blank movement away from that form of belittling of others where the few think it has the monopoly on the many. Life is about going onwards towards a new horizon not dominated by those who feels that life was fashioned just for them and every other needs be in subjugation to their needs and desires.
Anything and everything will be questioned or should be if one is to awake to that world order where there will be a synergy of being, where one reaches to the other, where one is not in non authentic mode, where there is a sense of purpose no longer govern by make believe where there is a call back to the beginning, a simplicity which makes one be.
Still others are sucked into a form where they wish to carry on imposing a lifestyle based on the mundane….which keeps subjugating others into submission.
An enforced change where it is discovered that new heroes are not those entangled in make belief vi a leading a non authentic lives based on games but a real one where there is a forward call and see how it may all fashioned. To be sure, the quintessence is not about the fact that one is now doomed. We were doomed anyway except we never realised we were so. Now, it is all clear as we pay a little more attention to the real question of being rather than loosing out or trying to do so through projects, work, or through arts and sports or whatever except facing to who one is or what is one’s purpose not from a particular viewpoint but as an individual questioning how to be based not on a preempted moe of life but actually as to how one may make sense of our current situation.
That the virus had made each one us consider is all too obvious but still too many merely sees the universal lockdown as a blip and that a return back to pre-Wuhan is still on. There has been substantial damage around everywhere. The way we lived has been questioned in an actual, real way. We may no longer hide behind projects or adopt a pretence strategy. It is more of a question of trying to awake and realise one’s purpose even it be within the material way of being let alone try and make sense from the transcendental perspective. Even within the latter forms are so many variations that humanoids readily feels they are still at the helm of any and everything such that plundering and massacres of others are simply an ordained acts as revealed they might say in the instructions coming down from a higher authority and so kind of justify their a noxious ways at the expense of others.
Yet the area to consider is precisely may we be allowed to go unchecked and so perpetuate injustices about and around. The talking point needs to reflect what has happened in and about and around the world. It is a question of being in the mode of authenticity, a cry from existentialists of the sixties or the ecologists which keep saying that there is something still fundamentally wrong with society and the world which is of serious concern. Sooner one sees the inherent problem, sooner one may come to terms with life as it is. And importantly realise what needs not doing or what should be done. A question of rising above and beyond one’s pettiness and most of all appreciating each and every other.
