My OperaThe Four Factors
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 7:27:59 PM
Ephesians 5:13But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
As the light shines, the surroundings become perceptible. Everything in the environment is revealed and nourished by the light.
The human being can see oneself as the other side of the environment. Also, the other side of light and of life is perceptible - shadows. These oppositions reveal the dual nature of life to the reflective mind in terms of interdependence and change.
Consequently, study of change and interdependence in life should discern four basic factors:
- The source of light (the life-giving force)
- The environment (the space with its properties, objects and subjects)
- The human being (the container and arranger of perceptions)
- The shadows (vital for visibility, discerning perceptions)
Change is what life is about. Nothing is static. Seeing the change as relative to the four factors provides a coherent perspective. Life and death and everything good or bad about them are relative to the same four factors.
This perspective is relative, but potentially all-encompassing. Admittedly, there can be something unchanging in the (really) big picture. It would be another perspective attainable by fusing the four factors into one organism with a single awareness, at first beyond reproving, then beyond manifestation, by comprehending the virtue of the absolute.

Shouldn't this be this ?
But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. (- Bible, King James)
It is not so important for the subject in the following words but a big difference though. In my understanding "reprove" is not at all the same as "expose" .
This just for the record.
Moreover the divison in four factors by Santi seems a bit artificial and constructed to me.
I agree with your statements that now and here counts and kindly remind you of the fact that we have a great influence on how light is going to be spread and distributed and the importance of that fact is widley underestimated by mankind....
but whom do I tell. You both know it
Love and peace which both merge to and come from light,

Of course, the text is a construct, because its purpose is to describe a model...

Instead of non-light or darkness, I really prefer shadows, because they are entities, whereas non-light is a non-entity. The factors have to be entities.
