Triadic Philosophy Commentary - Memory Ethics Forgiveness


In Triadic Philosophy whatever 
rises up is a sign or word
and often it is a memory
if only fleeting
That memory is real 
it's in the now
and if we choose 
we wrestle with it
embrace it
allow it to become real to us
When we are mired in the past
memories can be overwhelming
The stage at which we wrestle with memory
I call Ethical
What that means is that we subject our thoughts 
to tests
to blunt questioning
to the process of being disturbed or troubled
So for example a memory seems to fester
and in our thinking we seek to come to terms
There might be grief or regret or anger

+

Now let me introduce 
an element of this philosophy
I hold that forgiveness is the most iconoclastic of actions
It has even been a capital offense
Forgiveness can only achieved by the forgiver
It is only achieved when the forgiver
at the same moment seeks to be forgiven
Forgive us for the wrongs we've done
as we forgive those who do wrong
Forgiveness clears the deck
Forgiveness lets the past rest in peace

+

Because we are fallible sorts 
forgiveness is never unwelcome 
in any thought process
We forgive wrongs done
and in the bargain receive forgiveness
The proper place for this is the Second
the Ethical
When forgiveness occurs
it paves the way for
a beautification process
The Aesthetic is the completion
of the root triad of Triadic Philosophy
Reality Ethics Aesthetic
We move forth in
the now
settled
new
accepting what it is
unshadowed 
unimpeded

+

Thus does what is Real
become reality

The Lord's (Abba) Prayer Is Universal and Belongs to No Religion It Voices Universal Values


The Lord's Prayer is more radical 
than the Declaration of Independence
It invites every person on the planet to make earth heavenly
It empowers the most radical practice that there is
universal forgiveness
It is a fountain from which tolerance democracy and helpfulness spring
It is a source of non-odolatry

Hard Redemptive Words

Winning The War Within Collected Sonnets: Thirty-Five Give us - Abba you give us everything:

"Give us - Abba you give us everything
In your abundance is no scarcity
The ill we do the ugly songs we sing
Merely reveal how little we can see"

'via Blog this'


That "give us" is from the Lord's Prayer
The remarkable invitation to presume on grace
And thereby turn our world from notions of
Get
To the experience of seeing everything
With a new eye
And finding gifts to which
All eyes may be blind
And ways you never knew

Heaven is in the here and now


The Lord's Prayer states,
Abba who art in heaven
This identifies Abba with
the force available
to all people
who evoke the values 
lodged in us all.
These include tolerance,
democracy, helpfulness
and non-idolatry.

Lord's Prayer Part Three Quatrain

Deliver us from evil Lord
And safely guide us to your shore
Yours is the power to heal and mend
Yours is the glory evermore

Lord's Prayer Part Two Quatrain

Give us this day our daily bread
Forgive the wrongs that we have done
As we forgive those who do wrong
Lead us not into temptation

Abba whose home in heaven is

Abba whose home in heaven is
Hallowed and holy is your name
Let your realm come your will be done
Till earth and heaven are the same

This is the first third of the Lord's Prayer. It posits a reality known as heaven. It venerates the reality behind everything. It assumes that there is a real will that is to be implemented by us on earth. Indeed the purpose of life is to make earth and heaven the same.

Our daily bread is everything we need


Our daily bread is everything we need
With Abba there is no such thing as greed
Just seek within for Abba's lavish hand
When this is said daily you'll understand
