A Matter of Transcendence

Proofs dedicated to moments of thinking “nothing matters”:

If everything in this universe & beyond is just a phantasm, a mere dream-like illusion, and humans are somehow the only emanation of intelligence to conceive of purpose & meaning, or at least wonder and search for it, then the very inclination to search, in it of its self, creates a purpose & meaning for the life of a human.

You matter. You are quite literally a creative bridge between metaphysical and material realms.

Similarly, you cannot say that “nothing exists”. The same way space is required for matter to manifest, existence is required in order to speak, or have an opinion in the first place.

Further, for an opinion to exist, at least two perspectives must exist.

If two perspectives can exist, then it would be more accurate for one to say that “everything matters and nothing matters”, depending on the human perspective.

Thus, choice of perspective exists above each opinion. If the principle of perspective is superior to a choice that only be half-true, I encourage you to take your stance from the more beautiful vista - or no stance at all.

Nonetheless, you’ll find that existence is required to have perspective. Either way you read that is equally correct.

Existence is the palace of space, matter, & speech - or better, life as we know it.

As we identify with a single perspective of truth (the “I am-ness”), we assume a separation between space, matter, & life. Finally, we discover that the illusion of separation is required for existence to perpetuate, and to substantiate the “mattering” of human life.

When we take the perspective of Humanity as a whole, beyond of our subjective confines, the purpose for our lives becomes beautifully clear: to exist.

This is the ultimate self-realization: Transcending the search for the real or true perspective to be what you are. Surrendering the ego in return for the greatest view of all.

The greatest view is depending on you to arrive to it, because it’s very sight is all the roads that lead to it.

Let that give you faith: both in your searching, and for your surrender.

Material: (Mater) Latin origin for mother.

Manifest: (Man) Rooted in the latin word “mens” = Mind.

The alchemical marriage is of mind & matter.

The humans of today are the Justice of the Peace, mostly unknowingly.

Your thoughts manifest, and so they matter.
