[MD] The differentiating nothingness

[platootje at netscape.net]

Ham,

>From your FAQ:

"Since Essence is all that is, and its antithetical nothingness is 
actualized only in existence, the negate becomes the cognizant subject 
of a relational world whose objects are selectively delineated from 
Essence by its own intellect.  Attracted to its estranged essent, the 
subjective self becomes aware of physical beingness as finite forms 
that have relative value.  Unlike value, which is proprietary to the 
self, the objectified forms of being are universally communicable to 
other subjects."

Why is nothingness actualized? I'd say is theorized in existence. I 
still can't see how nothingness is actual. The only thing that is 
actual is experience and nothingness is not experienced.


More from your FAQ:
"Remember that the self is pure nothingness from the moment of 
creation, and its awareness consists of finitely intellectualized  
sensibilia."

I would rather say: the self is pure Essence and its awareness is 
cluttered by finitely intellectualized sensibilia.

And:
"Value plays a vital role as man's link to Essence, while man's 
conditional value-sense is the means by which Essence gains an 
"external perspective" of its Absolute Value."

I would replace 'external' by 'differentiated'.

Kind regards,
Reinier.
