Simply because I got high ... and don't know what else to do with my time.
Programming is an art. Pretty much like Kung Fu. As previously established within terms of Combat as a Language, Programming as a skill of speaking can be compared to the art of fighting.
That certainly is the tune movies like 'Hackers' want to get us into - but as opposed to the power of speed there is another, the power of consciousness. Consciousness depends on causality - and with causality so happens a nuance of time, ... lets call it the 'tick of progress'. In a fluid visualization everything grows, and with growth comes higher consciousness. But how that now happens is much easier comprehended in the 'final totalities' summed up within causality.
Something happens at some point - and at whenever something that happens influences another thing that happens we can speak of it and them.
So is the first insight probably our primary best example to look at. Eternity, defined as 'Eternal Life', had within it the "seed of truth" which bears the 12 Aeons - which again are mirrored within the 3 Principles and the 4 Lights. And their existence within them mirrors their unity - which in the end "bears down" into the definition that mirrors best what it all is.
Lets think about Math for a second. And compare that to the word. The word 'word' has a meaning - and it is the meaning that 'all' language must have. Whatever its basic building block is - there is a 'meaning' that it contains. And this 'meaning' is 'intrinsic to reality'. The meaning of 'word' cannot be removed from a language that conveys information, it cannot be removed from the mere idea of information, and math itself cannot be without the means to exist. The simplest concepts of math come in terms. Addition requires items to add, items that are being added in the most rudimentary case are numbers, and numbers are distinct informations. If information cannot exist, numbers cannot exist. If numbers cannot exist, math cannot exist. Yet so the created paradox, which is that our information processing mind cannot understand the absence of math in the sense that the logic of math is real independent of the existence or inexistence of its components. Or ... is it?
So is this paradox however meaningless since the matter of information speaks to itself. Logic ... cannot exist without meanings to consist of. Logic itself is derived from the term 'word' maybe, ... the principle however might be labeled otherwise.
So is there within the 12 Aeons the Aeon of Truth. Counted to the Light of "Armozel" ... a.k.a. "Glory" or maybe "Mercy" (and)or "Grace".
Words now play a higher part within the chain of causality. Once something has become a word it becomes a building block to a higher grade of complexity to things. Now is it so the question how the first information came into being.
From the Apokryphon of John of the NHC we can take it that somehow the mind "converged in on itself" and that begat 'the First Insight'. For it to be an insight, there has to be information. If there is information however, ... there is something that conceives it. For what else is information, but substance to a conceiving mind?
"Truth". ???
So, can anything be that is not conceived? Can there so be this physical plane of existence ... that simply functions without there being anything to perceive it? Or is it all the product of a much higher sphere of existence?
In physics we have it nowadays that on the 'deepest' Levels it still functions logically - but a certain irrationality is however built into it. There is the paradox that velocity and position of a particle are 'abstract' in the sense that only one of them can be determined at a time. It however functions "Logically" as there is math that can safely predict certain outcomes. So - there is a 'thing' that makes it so that these things happen so. We might call them "physical Laws". But ... can we define 'it' as a Law? Or must we say 'principle'? Well - whatever it is - it must exist. We can then either way call it a 'word' - or a 'truth' - and how this truth exists is now a basic question of reality - if not 'the' most basic question thereof.
Think about it. The reason you can measure your weight is because once you step onto it there's a thing that moves and how far it moves determines your weight. If you put 20 kilos onto it today - it will push down the same way tomorrow and the days thereafter. If it ever fails, it is more likely that your device is defect rather than the laws of physics.
So, in this case there is something that causes the weight to 'push down' ... or 'pull' ... or 'fall' however. The whatever it is why things go down. Cosmologists say one thing, ... and looking up into the sky it makes sense to me that we can call it 'Gravity'. I don't even need to look closer. Its enough that there is something up there - as so there is a ball moving up and down on the horizon - and where it comes and where it goes to - and how day and night come to be - and how this ultra-bright thing up there works - well, there has to be 'some logic' behind it all. It would be fantastic if the earth were at all flat, but ... I don't know ... would it be more genius?
Anyway. In terms of causality for the first information to occur there must be enough 'meaning' - while the mere presence of causality dictates that not all of possible Truth is existent ... or lets say 'persistent' ... at once. For causality has it that what is yet to come has yet to come - and so it is not 'yet'. And so it 'isn't - though the idea, or some idea, of it exists already. Is that its cause though? Well, we cannot remove the idea can we? The truth of causality. Or does causality need no reason to exist?
So, what has caused what is ultimately the question.
Numbers exist because physics exist. So is that a one up for whatever it is that allows numbers to be. Or is it numbers? Well, if we boil them down into mere geometric incidents, as so an idea of patterns and relations, we yet see a truth in their behavior that cannot be removed. And that truth is 'emergent'. "Physics cannot be stopped". Well, not as we know it. The Quran says that nothing can defy Gods will, and physics would be His display of power. "Inevitability".
But that is going ahead of myself.
Eternal Life. If that is the definition of Eternity, then there is an existence which regards itself as 'existing' - regarded as 'Life' - that also happens to be Eternal. No pun intended. - Well ... it is after all 'Eternity'. Or 'existence'? Its a good question that opens up space for wondering about just 'what' is at the base of everything. Physics is built on the emergent truths within it - and substance ... well ... can it exist without information? Well, it does what it does - so - the substance itself 'inherits' the information of how it works. It kindof "knows" ... what it is and how to behave.
So - what the idea of Eternal life needs is an idea of Eternity and an idea of Existence. And so we come back to causality.
"How the Synapses fire" might be another way of saying it, but due to the underlying principles of physics we may assume some degree of abstraction akin to quantum physics - where now in regards to cognition our mind is a higher principle to our body. Some things happen autonomously, but in some regards we take conscious control over our body. Do we have a free will? Well, lets change the question into 'do we have a will at all?'. If yes, is it free? How free is it? Can we change our ways? Well - the doctrine of repentance would suggest that thats what its all about. While the argument were that we are slaves of ourselves and determined by our intricate kinks and glitches, the question is in how far the denial of its freedom prevents those from ever repenting.
Now, what I wanted to get at about programming is that causality now has its own speed. Either way it happens over time - and the more frequent ... no. The less time we give ourselves to conjure up an idea the less evolved it is going to be. So as opposed to speed there is another quality to the art - one that must sotospeak "relax", 'stretch and grow'. I have often begun from square one - taking things to some end and upon realizing a "Terminal Flaw" scrapped it or otherwise I had to deal with weird bugs that often only could be defined as divine interference. There certainly were also those that seemed like they were but they weren't. But usually were lessons to those as well.
There so is a causatively implied change of mind I had to comply with or else, well ... what?
I mean - if there was a Bug I couldn't do anything about ... I had no other choice - did I? Others might have complained, ... more than I did, ... which is now less an aspect of causality but more of the underlying 'fluidity'. As we happen to be individuals there's a chance that whenever there's a numerical measurement of some sorts we're different. Even more so in systems of higher complexity, such as that of our minds. How we think. Why we do what we do.
And I guess thats something about what we can understand as "the befabled" 'biblical wisdom'. Well - as I've thought of it however. The aspect of 'learning', which starts at ones own self. Basically. The 'wisdom' to change ones self in order to become a better person.
So, ultimately I think I had to realize that there would be no use in trying over and over again if I start to realize that I'm going wrong somewhere. Call it a 'gut feeling' that evolved - but sure, once I don't get to it I can't further explore it; But if I still have that gut feeling, there is ... that inevitable outcome that starts from where I'm at. So ... is there really a reason to try? Well - experience? Sure! But possibly I have to take steps backwards to really work on the things that matter. Time is time. Who knows whether what I will find is going to be useful or not?
What I have is an idea of what I want - and as I've gotten into developing the things here and there I have gathered some intel about all the items I wanted and how they link and interfere with each other and the logic of the system. Those are terms I can now better work with as I have them; And I don't need to 'do it' to understand that certain things do work and how they would, should or might work. The latter is the "ultimate question" in a sense, as ... thats where ones creativity comes in. In the beginning there are the 'woulds' - which are preliminary or para-aligned concepts, the 'shoulds' are the sophisticated parts and then there are the 'mights' - that which comes prior to all reasonable concept. The assumption of how all the things must come together where then the 'woulds' come in to draw the basic outlines. Or so, the most fundamental outlines themselves. The idea ... 'executable' ... how it might do the things its supposed to do. The groundwork of thought before any solution can come into place.
So for instance was of my QBasic projects an attempt at creating an animated, semi-interactive version of - "this" - and what it 'might' be then drew from my knowledge of what could be, ergo some Text-Adventure type sitting with animations interlaced with it, while my own creativity of solving the task of creating my own systems for doing that then "bubbled" into 'woulds' that eventually ended up working.
But eventually my curiosity traveled on to other things and in the meantime my wisdom of these things has evolved as well. Thats a simple parable to insert into this 'wisdom' talk.
Wisdom is another Aeon. As mentioned, we have 12 of them. The three principles are Life, Thinking and Wanting. What is this wisdom? I used to see it like that: All interaction requires knowledge of some sort. A thing that interacts with another thing is a thing that 'acts' in some way responding to another. So I see that in the 6th Seal: Judgement, Reason and Acting - which yea, is a property of Life which so happens to be the 5th. And next is the 7th which is Independence. The 1st being matter - well, the line drawn is simply one of intellectual, but then spiritual 'growth'. Or stacking of layers of complexity. Ultimately there is the 13th - the Well or Source - which can either be seen as the simplest, but when thinking of Eternity also as the most complex of all. Too complex for a human mind - and the only way a human has to partake of it is if it wills it so. And so this step requires a request - for that way we can establish a cognitive contact from our end where the direct response establishes the link. The 'real' link. The 'causatively logical' one. And that is Unification in a Nutshell.
