Inscendence as a complementary word to the transcendence brings you contemplations on various topics from the perspective of the reflective, associative and internal intelligence. A journey into depths to find, like Rumi said, the “Messiah, in my heart, I bear.” (مسيحا در دلم پيدا و من بيمار می گردم).
Enjoy the articles. Take them in. More than philosophical discussions or my attempts to convince you of anything, approach them as gentle meditations. Let them reveal that which your own Inner Heart knows. Perhaps they invite you to dream or to look at Reality with an expanded gaze.
[The articles from the old website, Orphic Inscendence, are here too.]
The Courageous Romantics
It would appear that the Moon, even in our modern times, still holds to her principles -- she allows the masses to be fed with appearances and illusions, while she hides her deepest and most profound passions and secrets, they visible only to those who prove themselves deserving and worthy. Even in a highly democratic world, her realm remains aristocratic and discriminatory, and still, it is only the Hero with a Sword who can find her, for she remembers the Law that says: "Only the truly good can find the Grail."
The Primordiality of Poetry
Poetic art is thus a principal part of many peoples' earliest heritage — Homer is a jewel of Greece, Ovid and Virgil is pride of Rome, Beowulf of the Anglo-Saxons, Kalevala is unforgettable in the memory of Finnic peoples, Poetic Edda is where the Icelandic and other Nordic people find their cosmological root; we also recall Epic of Gilgamesh, Popol Vuh, Ramayana, Shijing, and many more epics and ballads. These all eventually became part of the universal human heritage, recognised for their value in the entire world. Poetry is at once, humanity’s most primordial (even “primitive”) and highest expression.
