Mitos de amor

  
Dejando que la pena hablara, dijo Vicente Aleixandre que amar era olvidar la vida. Mas ¿cómo olvidar lo que somos, y abandonar lo querido en las frías manos de la nada? Los años, que acumulan infortunios, torpezas y malevolencias en forma de hábitos e inercias de llantos, las heridas, que nos empujan a no recordar el dolor para poder seguir amando con aquella niñez del mar -o a apenas respirar-, oprimen con daños, exiliando el corazón cansado, extrañado de sí, acorralado entre fantásmicas fronteras donde sólo las lágrimas de opio son la ideal compaña y el consuelo.
  ¡Qué famélico el amor que olvida muerte o vida en su delirio! Se ha de querer morir como se ha de querer vivir, siempre por amor a la vida. En un ya sin dioses universo, ningún sentido es mayor que hacer poema de los ojos compañeros, de los asombrados espejos solares por donde riela la voz y la vaga memoria de otras vidas.

  Amar es creer que a la vida aún le queda otra canción por cantar, sea o no sea entonces ya el aire nuestro.

Limen et Continuum

  Existence is Encounter. Meeting at the limen. In the limen, the masks disappear, that is, the basic intuitions of identities, such as the identity that I feel and think in relation to the tree that I see in front of me. The identity of the tree is a projection of mine: the unity of my process of perceiving the tree generates a mask in me, the ghost of a limited unity separated from everything else. The simplest form of intuitive understanding of masks and limen is given to us by numbers. Numbers intuitively express the liminal tension that is Existence. A little etymological note. Rythmos in Greek means flow. Arythmos (number) is what does not flow, what remains solidified. Numbers express the liminoid, and flow, rhythm, expresses the liminal. A rhythm becomes liminoid when we can trace patterns in it, that is, when we can construct masks of identities. Mathematics has spoken of flow using the Latin word “continuum”, the continuous. All modern science, since Leibni...

What is Mythopoetics?

  The narrative grew in the process of being told, as myths always do. The Blog has become more labyrinthine over the years. It contains my Mythopoetics book and a few other things. For those who access these texts without knowing anything about Mythopoetics, I am going to post the introduction of the first part, so you can decide if you want to spend your precious time thinking about the identity narratives that we humans have developed over the years. throughout our eventful existence as a species. "Mythological narratives are the only intellectual activity that has been continuously practiced by human beings, a fact that makes them a unique tool for thinking synthetically our evolution as homo-sapiens. In this sense, they are the first valuation settings that humans have made about themselves and their environment, and as such, they have conditioned the ones that have come afterwards, both in form and content. Their communicative function places them at the basis o...

Ritual, Scientific Experiment and Truth

 Human rituals have their roots in animal behavior, and the animal pattern has its roots in the need for repetition of living organisms, in the cyclical structure of physiological actions. At the human level, ritual behavior involves a delimitation of space and time, as well as a different meaning of both with respect to the spaces and times of everyday experience. From the ritual ceremonies of cold societies, we observe the care and thoroughness of the shaman to determine with precision the spaces, times and elements that intervene in the rite. Sacred space delimits the world, not only as a place of action, but also the scope of meaning of the things contained in that space. It is a space loaded with meaning: there is an order in things. Time itself acquires its meaning in relation to this order of things, and cyclically closes the space in the “tempo” of the rite, a tempo that is a symbol of the tempo of the World. What is not in the rite or is not referable to the rite has no re...
