Existentialism, a
term coined by the media after a brief discussion with Jean-Paul
Sartre, in France. But who started what we term as existentialists?
Writing in the walls of caves the primitive man would use rock and
chisel to create pictures of what was happening with themselves and
the world around them.They asked questions but didn't know the answer
since their ideology was very hunter gatherer. The writing on the
wall led these ancient existentialists to leave the cave intact for
future generations. Neanderthal existence. Through the course of
time, however, existentialism became a just natural occurence, we
don't really ask questions like this on a day to day basis, yet it's
everywhere among us. In the sky, in the cafes and even in the
kitchen. How do things be? We are Beings, but how do elements of our
world connect to philosophy.
Unlike the questions
chose i earlier generations,I find being very mucho so today. While
Sartre saw people in theworld as beingf-for-itself,in-the -world
etc,I have come up with an idea that involves paranormal being. I
look into an empty vehicle and I see emptiness, no one driving, no
one there, except the mind imagines an entity there. This ideaology
is space-in-being. The space is taken up, but not quite exactly the
same point as when you see it. You know that there will be someone
there one day but for now, it is only open space-in-being. One could
almost see the futre of what is being in that space and in time,
there will be someone filling the spaceness. One could almost imagine
what that other may look like as they walk by, and with that
information, being-in-space creates an entity that only ththe
invidual on his own, can interpret. It is very mystical like Huxley's
work, The Doors of Perception, where no matter which direction we
turn there are a cause and effect. In one motion, beings-appear
rather postive or pessimisstic. The choice is a natural and it
involves, forming ourselves in a situation we sometimes can't control
because once that route is taken it becomes the only guided portion
of the being.The other door disappears in the, psyche, or that it
forgets entirely.
