You two (three?) have not been paying attention. Your confusion stems from
a misinterpretation of my terms.
On 4/4 I explained to Ron that I acknowledge proprietary awareness in a pure
sense as Sensibility, not "experience" which is intellectually
differentiated. Because everything in existence is divided by nothingness,
including the subject, sensibility takes a binary form: Value/sensibility.
I submit that value-sensibility is the essence of man's existence. Hence,
there is nothing inconsistent about my statement.
Moreover, since the attributes of existence are intellectualized "products"
of value-sensibility, experience does not reveal cosmic purpose. This can
only be conceived intuitively--by the introspective development of a
logically plausible ontology that takes into account the fact that
experiential truth is relative and knowledge is only an intellectual
paradigm.
Essentialism is such a theory. It posits man as the locus of his universe
and vindicates the inaccessibility of Absolute Truth as consistent with the
principle of Individual Freedom. Unlike the MoQ, Essentialism can
acknowledge existence as a subject/object reality because it is founded on
an undifferentiated source.
Thanks for allowing me this opportunity to clarify my position.
