Transcription:

Reality is not a solid wall but a river, ever flowing, ever changing. Each moment is a drop, each thought a ripple shaping its path. The world does not exist apart from us; we are the ones who dream it into being. Like a painter whose canvas is endless, we are both the brush and the hand that moves it. To live is to participate in creation, to bring the unseen into form. Every question we ask is a bridge to another horizon. And as the wind shapes the dunes, so too do our choices shape the landscape of existence. Look not for certainty, but for the beauty in becoming. Reality whispers its secrets not in answers, but in the act of listening. You are the echo, and the silence between.

The Eternal Nothing: Exploring Jacob Boehme's Ungrund

-

Humble Beginnings Jacob Boehme , was born in 1575 on the border between Germany and Poland. The fourth of five children born to Jacob and Ursula, Lutheran peasants of the ‘poorest sort, yet of sober and honest demeanour’. He tended cattle in his childhood and studied to a rudimentary level. In 1599 became a cobbler in the town of Gorlitz , yet just one year later at the age of 25, Boehme introduced a concept that has intrigued and inspired philosophers and theologians for centuries: the Ungrund, or the "non-ground." This idea, central to his mystical thought, represents a primordial state of nothingness that precedes all being, and from which all things emerge. The Ungrund is not simply an absence of existence, but a dynamic, active void, a "craving for something", akin to Schopenhauer's concept of “Will” in some respects. It is a concept that delves beyond the very heart of existence and has had a profound influence on subsequent philosophical and theological ...

A semi-biographical novel on the life and works of Jacob Boehme (Preview)

Chapter 1:  The Stranger I was fourteen when I first glimpsed the divine. Summer air hung thick with pollen as I drove cattle across the hillside southwest of Gorlitz. Father had assigned me this task after deeming me too slight for the heavier farm labour my brothers performed with ease. The beasts grazed peaceful, tails swishing at flies, while I sat upon the highest point of the Landeskrone watching clouds merge and dissolve like phosphenes across the sky. My mind wandered untethered from mundane concerns that occupied the adults in our village. Father was a deacon at the parish church and spoke often of proper Lutheran doctrine and responsibilities of community leadership. I thought instead of patterns in nature—how leaf veins mirrored river branches, how snail shells spiralled like the stars at night. It happened in the space between breaths. The hillside before me—so familiar I could navigate blindfolded—revealed what had never been there before. An arched opening appeared am...

The Unfolding of Existence | process philosophy | transcription

  Transcription: Reality is the eternal act of becoming, a fire that burns without consuming its source. Like a seed unfolding into a tree, existence moves from hidden potential to living form. We do not stand outside this process; we are the unfolding itself, the harmony of nature and spirit. Every thought is a spark, igniting the infinite within. The universe is not a finished work but a living symphony, with each moment a new note. Creation is a dialogue, where the visible answers to the invisible. Just as light reveals the colors of the world, consciousness reveals the depths of reality. To know yourself is to see the world awakening in you. You are both the artist and the art, endlessly creating and being created.
