Recall this
post where I referenced and linked to the book Theopoeitic
Folds, as well as commentary on the book in this
and this
post. From Faber's chapter he notes that what is necessary
“after the ecologicial death of God
[is] the mystical move of becoming-animal, becoming
multiplicity. This unio mystica […] [is] the consummation of
all unity into the realm of multiplicity. […] It is the khoric
realm of a paradox where we have to go through divergences,
bifurcations, and antinomies all at once. […] In this
mystical in/difference, everything is only in difference”
(227-28).
I'm making some associations from the
Faber quote that I don't think he makes, but not sure since I don't
have access to the whole chapter.
In keeping with the theme of this
thread I find the expression 'becoming animal' interesting. It is
associated with the kinds of folds I've been discussing, like folding
back 'down' into our animal base awareness with our human capacity
for detached observation, which creates states of 'unio mystica.' And
upon reentering so-called gross egoic consciousness this can lead to
the kind of ontological notions of paradoxical, nondual and
postmetaphysical khora. I say 'can lead' but it doesn't necessarily
do so, since without the proper frame(s) (right view) many often
interpret such states metaphysically or dualistically.
