Endorcism, Courage, and Love

20-12-2020

All nature is but art, unknown to thee
All chance, direction, which thou canst not see
All discord, harmony not understood
All partial evil, universal good

– Alexander Pope, Essay On Man

There exists a duality and dialectic of courage and cowardice (or “sensitivity”), but you are never 100% courageous or 100% sensitive. As the one becomes more actualized, the other becomes more potentialized. While the duality, the polarity, the tension between courage and cowardice exists on one level of reality and of consciousness, on a contiguously higher (or deeper) level of reality and of consciousness, there exists neither courage nor cowardice.

You are, and your reality is, the ternarity or tri-unity of courage, cowardice, and the beyond or that which is transcendental thereof. This is not the same as the Hegelian synthesis that takes place in the sequential time frame on the same level of reality. This ternary structure across any two contiguous levels of reality exists at every moment of your life.

Endorcism means to be present to this tri-unity and to be and to live as this tri-unity. That which evolves is this tri-unity into ever-higher levels of reality and consciousness (cognition-cogitation or perception-conception-mentation-intellection).

Love as an emotion exists in the polarity or the bidirectional continuum of love-hate or of love-fear, whereas Love as a state of consciousness includes and centered in the third element on the contiguously higher (or deeper) level of reality and perception.

This third element is neither love nor hate. It is not an emotion. It is the awareness or the higher feeling or sense that recognizes the duality, the polarity, and the tension between love and hate, and yet inclusively transcends it.

In the total experience of this triune reality in the triune consciousness, the love-hate or the love-fear polarity continuum is transmuted to become an ecstatic intensity on the higher emotional or affective level. It ceases to be an (infinite) spectral continuum of colors and become a white light, metaphorically speaking. Then, there will be no emotional attachment, which arises only when the emotional experience is partial and localized within the whole continuum.
