"Consider
aesthetic
apperception.
Sterile
intellectual opinions are worthless when considering aesthetics.
The word aesthetic can be traced back to a Greek word "aisthetikos,"
which means a highly attuned
apperception of what is front and center.
Aesthetic apperception has
nothing to do with the intellectual
detachment.
Classical aesthetics highlighted in art criticism
reduce genuine attuned aesthetic
apperception to the affected
sensibility of a confined intellectual.
True aesthetic apperception is
intrinsic with authentic artistic
endeavor.
Aesthetic
awareness, rooted in the very
process of creation itself, is a conduit to
the groundless wonder of the presence
of being." - Lew
Paz
The Aesthetic of Creation
Aesthetic Creation is necessary for
connection with Gaia.
To be separate is to be a stranger to
the Creator and
Sustainer.
Aesthetic
Creation was assigned to you when the dream became you.
In the compassionate living of life
the innermost secrets of life are
revealed.
Creative urges are blind without
Knowledge and
Wisdom.
Weave the Whole Cloth of Reality
with threads drawn from your Heart.
beauty is defined as:
Effective
qualities or gratifying features that give rise to
an enjoyment of
sensation associated with such properties as
harmony of form,
compostion of color,
excellence of artistic
composition, flavor palate or
Revelation of Truth
create patterns of synchronized
activity in key neurons.
Creation is unbelievably
beautiful! The
complexity of the
interaction of life and the beauty of that life - in and of itself - is so
wondrous that any one who is willing to look needs no more.
As humans,
who have been given the grace of
Creator to 'see' and understand we have been commissioned to protect life
as we were made in the image of the Creator as an extension of the Creator on
this physical Earth.
"Where is
beauty?
It is in a butterfly, but when we chloroform it,
lay it out on the dissecting table, and
cut it apart, beauty is gone.
Beauty is in a poem, but when we
over-analyze the poem to find exactly what is beautiful about it, beauty
disappears from that too.
Beauty is in a painting; can we reduce it to
quantitative measures of color and proportion, and apply these to
the standardized production
of beauty?
No.
Beauty is a
relationship, not an objective property, and the mass-production of generic
relationships produces, necessarily, an aesthetic that is equally phony,
generic, and cheap." -
Charles
Eisenstein
"Happiness cannot
be pursued; it must ensue."
Viktor Frankl
"I realized
that one's happiness was only to be attained by not making it the direct end."
- John Stuart Mill
" Most men
pursue pleasure with such breathless haste they
hurry past it." -

If one
equates happiness with
pleasure, then the paradox of
hedonism arises.
Consciously pursuing pleasure
interferes with experiencing pleasure.
"Pleasure and violence have a
reciprocal relationship, the presence of one inhibits the other.
When
the brain's pleasure circuits are 'on,' the violence circuits are 'off,' and
vice versa.
A pleasure-prone personality rarely displays violence or
aggressive behaviors, and a violent personality has little ability to tolerate,
experience, or enjoy sensuously pleasing
activities.
The reciprocal relationship of pleasure and violence is
highly significant because certain sensory experiences during the
formative periods of
development will create a neuropsychological
predisposition for either violence
seeking or pleasure
seeking behavior later in life.
Abnormal social and emotional
behaviors result from 'somatosensory'
deprivation, a lack of tender
and loving care.
Derived from the Greek word for 'body,' the term
'somatosensory' refers to the sensations of touch and body movement which
differ from the senses of seeing,
hearing,
smelling and
tasting.
The
deprivation of body touch
and contact are the basic causes of a number of emotional disturbances include
depressive behaviors,
sexual aberration,
drug abuse,
violence, and
aggression.
Not
surprisingly, when high
self-needs are combined with the
deprivation of physical
affection, the result is self-interest
and high rates of
narcissism.
The deprivation of body pleasure throughout life - but
particularly during the
formative periods of infancy, childhood, and adolescence - are very closely
related to the amount of
warfare and interpersonal violence a culture experiences -
high self-needs compete
with high rates of narcissism.
Another way of looking at the reciprocal
relationship between violence and pleasure is to examine a society's choice of
drugs as a society will support behaviors that are consistent with its values
and social mores.
American society is a
competitive, aggressive, and violent
society.
Consequently, it supports drugs that facilitate
competitive, aggressive, and
violent behaviors and oppose drugs that counteract
such behaviors.
Alcohol, well known to
facilitate the expression of violent
behaviors and although very harmful to chronic
users, is acceptable in
American society.
Methamphetamine and
engineered tobacco
also belong to a competitive, aggressive,
and violent society hell bent on
bringing the world to the knee.
Marijuana, on the other hand, is an
active pleasure inducing drug which enhances pleasure of touch actively
inhibiting violent aggressive behavior.
It is for this reason that
marijuana is rejected in American
culture.
In Western philosophical
dualistic thought man is not
a unitary being but is
divided into two
parts, body and
soul.
The Greek philosophical
conception of
the relationship
between body and soul was quite different than the Judeo-Christian concept
which posited a state of war between the
body and soul = dirty flesh,
dirty soul.
Within Judeo-Christian
thought the purpose of
human life is to 'save the Soul' and the
flesh is seen as
an impediment to achieving this
objective.
Consequently,
the flesh must be punished and
deprived.
When high self-needs are combined with the
deprivation of physical affection, the
result is self-interest and high rates of
narcissism.
Cultures which are
repressive of human
sexuality tend to have rich
pornographic art forms such as exhibitionistic dancing and
pornography - a
substitute for normal sexual
expression.
- James W. Prescott, a neuropsychologist and health
scientist administrator at the National Institute of Child Health and Human
Development in Bethesda, Maryland. |

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a
new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its author adheres. The
author feels that the faλsification of reaλity outside personal
experience has forged a populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from
reality and that this has been done purposefully by an internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt
version of reaλity on the human race. Religi☯us int☯lerance
☯ccurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious practices,
religi☸us beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us
ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a system of
philºsºphy nªmed The Truth of the Way of the Lumière
Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on
reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme
leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is
encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with Æ∞n
through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing
the spiritual c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The
tenets of the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out
in detail on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against
individuals due to their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a
"hate ¢rime."
This web site in no way c☬nd☬nes
vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the violence that
is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate
cartels desire to c✡ntr✡l the human race. The internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the w☸rld
ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the
global indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex
and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the eg● w●rship and
the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems. Civilization is based on
coöperation. Coöperation with bi☣hazards of a
gun.
American social mores and values have declined precipitously over
the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more
power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general
through c✡rp✡rate media by pressing emotional buttons which have
been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior
c☢rp☢rate media psych☢l☢gical ☢perati☢ns.
The results have been the destruction of the family and the destruction of
s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt internati☭nal
elites vision of a perfect world. Through distra¢tion and coercion the
dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been
direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite
that further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
