Do we have to derive (in a kind of a priori way) the identity of Essence?

    Do we have to derive the identity of Essence when we are emprirically observing the material existence of it at Being there? Empirically this is an a priori stance for understanding the meaning of essential and grounded Being making for a self-relation by US occurring in History with all the reasonable representation of progress. So self-related to self must be explained.

    Is this there and then occurring at us like a certain fact of time?; we could just say it was relatively to anyone needing to fit in. Needing to fit in is a contradiction. It is an illusion. But the contradiction just the same exists, and we, each one of us, must realize validity for what we are doing. So, I myself, derive the validation, and no one confirms anything empirically. Certainly I validate all kinds of knowledge that is in mathematics. It isn't even just analysis. That I think I didn't need to fit in anything about.

    But it is the fitting becoming important which arises in the uncertainty of judgment for Evolution. Can anyone please explain how evolution more than just Empirical is a derivation of ideas like the unity of infinite and finite, contingency and possibility, the possibility which is already an actuality? These ideas are certainly from a contradiction and are self-evident; using those terms IT IS like ground of the whole universe doesn't Exist.

    Heck it's a contradiction and the Law of Nature in summation of it all cannot make for anything rationalistic or empirical.

    I know; the senses do not lie. Unless I'm hallucinating.

    i've just a handful of simple ideas of Essence .

    one is of a bowl . any idea can be placed in the bowl . Time , for
    example . the bowl is called the magic bowl . it always holds an
    essence and i suppose you could drink from it . is it Tea Time ?
    we may have a tea made of sassafras root perhaps . i like to ask
    people 'what's in your magic bowl? '. anyone i've ever asked has
    given an answer , and then seems very happy . the magical self
    has related to self very well .

    to an infant the existence essence would be mama milk , warm , the
    light is low , and our babe says wi'ti - " life is good , this is good ".

    and then in extension, any metaphor relies on essence . it's expression
    is magical , transformative , and traveling with all the changes is an aspect
    which does not change and shall be held and considered respectfully . other-
    wisely , a metaphor can become deceptive and even monsterous .

    essence is creative both actively and passively ? please
    illustrate contradiction .

    I don't remember if it always was the same way, I mean, the essence. I only remember that there were always gauges and switches to alter the review of it, that particular thing of the measured essence. Makes him wanna' shave his head to convince his steady date that the essence is nothing to do with the existence for all the reasons that an invention is never the same existing reality as the object with the causal properties as they are.:sombrero:

    yes , derive the identity of essence as though you are a child .
    it can be played with . i'd say a good lsd hallucination is good when
    you are at play with essence and it with you . it's a feeling of calm
    intersection and by this feeling , sensual reliability is assured . the
    meaning it gives , say given by that tiny little man in a red tophat
    who dances a jig in the fireplace forever as long as you wish to watch
    him , is this : you are not schizoid and neither can you ever be fooled .

    schizoid is too lonesome .

    have some Existence in your magic bowl , drink it up , we say mmm .
    essence would be relational to what you wish to accept .

    should logic insist that essence define the essence of essence ? I
    don't see that essence would care to comply . it's like commanding
    the nightingale to sing .

    the old-time Idealists thought the truth of essence is in the remembering .
    that's very passive . what's to Do!! once in action remembering may very
    well happen but that isn't all and not necessarily the first thing . if one
    can remember suckling mama's titty , that'd be fine .
