We must get back into relation, vivid and nourishing relation to the cosmos and the universe. the way is through daily ritual, andis an affair of the individual and the household, a ritual of dawn and noon and sunset, the ritual of the kindling fire and pouring water, the ritual of the first breath, and the last.

We Must Get Back Into Relation, Vivid

D. H. Lawrence
We must get back into relation, vivid and nourishing relation to the cosmos and the universe. the way is through daily ritual, andis an affair of the individual and the household, a ritual of dawn and noon and sunset, the ritual of the kindling fire and pouring water, the ritual of the first breath, and the last.

More From D. H. Lawrence

Dawn's faint breath breathes with your mouth at the ends of empty streets. gray light your eyes, sweet drops of dawn on dark hills. your steps and breath like the wind of dawn smother houses. the city shudders, stones exhale— you are life, an awakening. star lost in the light of dawn, trill of the breeze, warmth, breath— the night is done. you are light and morning.

Faith is precisely the paradox that the single individual as the single individual is higher than the universal, is justified before it, not as inferior to it but superior - yet in such a way, please note, that it is the single individual who, after being subordinate as the single individual to the universal, now by means of the universal becomes the single individual who as the single individual is superior, that the single individual as the single individual stands in an absolute relation to the absolute.

The dawn came - not the flaming sky that promises storm, but a golden dawn of infinite promise. the birds came flying up out of the east in wedge-shaped formation, and the mist lifted in soft wreaths of sun-shot silver. colour came back to the world. the grass glowed with a green so vivid that it seemed pulsing, like flame, from some hidden fire in the earth, the distant woods took on all the amazing deep crimsons and purples of their winter colouring, the banks were studded with their jewels of lichens and bright moss, and above the wet hedges shone with sun-shot orbs of light.

Three of the four elements are shared by all creatures, but fire was a gift to humans alone. smoking cigarettes is as intimate as we can become with fire without immediate excruciation. every smoker is an embodiment of prometheus, stealing fire from the gods and bringing it on back home. we smoke to capture the power of the sun, to pacify hell, to identify with the primordial spark, to feed on the marrow of the volcano. it’s not the tobacco we’re after but the fire. when we smoke, we are performing a version of the fire dance, a ritual as ancient as lightning.

Each individual is a cosmos of organs, each organ is a cosmos of cells, each cell is a cosmos of infinitely small ones; and in this complex world, the well-being of the whole depends entirely on the sum of well-being enjoyed by each of the least microscopic particles of organized matter. a whole revolution is thus produced in the philosophy of life.

With subjectivity in philosophy, anarchism in politics goes hand in hand. already during luther's lifetime, unwelcome and unacknowledged disciples had developed the doctrine of anabaptism, which for a time dominated the city of munster. the anabaptists repudiated all law since they held that good men will be guided at every moment by the holy spirit, who can not be bound by formulas. from this premise they arrive at communism and sexual promiscuity; they were therefore exterminated after a heroic resistance.

Engagement is the conscious inhabitation of your body and mind. practice is happening when your open awareness is moving with, in and through your embodied activity. intrinsic to practice is your conscious participation with your life. engagement is the conduction of your free and open awareness through your activities, whatever they may be.

An essential point in the social philosophy of interventionism is the existence of an inexhaustible fund which can be squeezed forever. the whole system of interventionism collapses when the fountain is drained off: the santa clause principle liquidates itself.
