The Self-world



 "The Self-world"


by ben yosaf aperitif




The way to understand one's concepts of the internal life of the mind is to ascertain the distinction between the interior and the outer of one's personhood.  We see that the body is a extrinsic materialistic property, fungible, plastic, identifiable in permutation of shape-- ostensibly identifiable in the realm of sight.  The mind, on the other hand, cannot be seen and it is of the world of the unseen.


This creates a sense of duality in the two modalities of substance constitution of which one is able to ascertain in selfhood.  The two are not, however, singularly distinguishable, in the overall equation of the human person.


The mind is the control-center of the person's selfhood.  It runs the body, in totality, when one take into account the unconscious and semi-conscious processes of the mind.


The mind is located within the interior of the person, and, in its unconscious processes, it run the likeness of organs, valves, and the heartrate.  


On the inside of the human, then, we see is where the mind is located.  One can refer to and think of the mind as 'achromatic nimbus plasma,' this conceptual placeholder of which I have minted.  By this nomenclature I have created, one is able to identify the ethereal and extension 'matter of the mind.'


The mind-- the inner cognitive selfhood.


The body-- the outer corporeal selfhood.


It is in the place of the full, holistic life the mind lives.  The person meanders and moseys and ambles onward through different settings and circumstances in her life, and in this, she coordinates her movements and strategies in the world of her 'mental life.'  (When one runs, her body becomes more agile and fit.)  The person controls how she acts through the mind; the body channels movement and an array of spiritual manifestations throughout the time in life...  The person's mind/body interconnection, herself, always stands in relation to her settings and her circumstances.


Hence, 'the self-world' is the existential modality of the individual, where she thinks, extends outwardly, and walks through...

Core Processor by Ben Bussewitz In the way in which one is best and most herself, she is able to process and make sense of the emotions and feelings of love, able to adeptly and intuitively apply them, and bring them, as light-beams, into the world she is in to harness them, propagate them, prolong them, and put them into the right kind of atmosphere, which brings one to feel an entirety of goodness while in the molding of doing so. We are here where we are, in stillness or in dance or in ambles or strident movement, etc., and all this love, all this love, bombards us, eats us up like a shell, moves us in the inner and outer, pines us to do well. In the hearty song or the sweet indigo royalty of the poems crunch and rub, one can feel more alive in words and musicality and the right kind of swaying and pithy certainties. As we feel alive, we come into crispness of our day, moving the right way our love, doing it with the right good intentions, for the right people, with an ultimate purp...

"Being-in-the-World and Endless Visions" by ben yosaf aperitif As we are in and out of various scenarios and locations, building and maintaining relationships and vital companions, thinking about our path forward and who we are able to turn to for help and advise, we are situated in an ever-changing rippling current of environments, in them, stationed and directly, holistically subsumed in our embedded state in terms of the place we are in the world.  As we move our selfhood (Dasein) around through the world, we, thus, move from one environment to another one, along with all our history that has led to where we stand and our eyes placed before us, focusing in on what we perceive immediately, alternatively poised in ideas about the future, or in abstract thought and reflection.  In all this, Dasein who is being for whom being has a meaning, takes up insight and wisdom in the things he partakes along with in his various intentionality (in a natural, organically-blossoming give-...
