Under the Iron Firmament (Part 2 of 2): A clearing after Schopenhauer–An ontic, dialogical, and learning-based approach to the development of will as a concept

Literary Articles #2: Alfred Döblin’s Berlin Alexanderplatz—Life, death, and the German spirit on a cliff’s edge before the rise of Hitler and Nazism and the Second World War

Published in 1929, just before the “end of history,” Alfred Döblin’s Berlin Alexanderplatz offers what remains a fascinating literary work of life, death, and a mythopoeic human reality. It is a novel for today especially, fully alive for distressing and “unnatural” times.

Pathways #7: The Dual Mind Path

This brings all the pathways together as a model and instruction for mind. If the first pathway was a “master” pathway, then this offers the key to it and all paths from it. It also offers better mind, a more fluid thought, and a more intuitive intelligence.

Pathways #6: The Path of a Single Point

Part meditation exercise, part representation of the meditation exercise as useful means for intended pathways, this offers a movement in one’s own being that will allow one to return to a pathway or path in one’s life when one’s journey is disrupted.

Pathways #5: The Path of Perspective

A pathway that will allow one to better fulfill one’s grasp of all the other pathways. “Perspective” is key in perception and understanding and it is what makes knowledge as one’s own possible.

Pathways #4: The End’s Path

A pathway that shows the “dual path” in approaching and having escaped history’s existential threats, great wars, and periods of anthropocene.

Pathways #3: The Heart Path

The Heart Path is a pathway that aims to develop and strengthen all the aspects of ourselves needed for a healthy human heart.

Pathways #2: The Truths Path

A pathway for the unearthing of truths in our human universe.

The Sensitized Pathway: Making the most of world, universe, and human selfhood for personal discovery and enriching enlightenment in a post-enlightenment chaosmos

We interview the originator and creator behind a new pathway-based philosophical movement. But first we present his original pathway. Read “skeptically,” “out of curiosity,” or “from hope.”

Under the Iron Firmament (Part 1 of 2): Philosophy and self-perpetuating annihilation as epistemological paradigm

A critique of Schopenhauer that sets out with the aim of directly engaging with his work’s impact on readers. This is intended to point the way toward an alternate philosophy of nature from what tends to be inherited from Schopenhauer’s work and its history.
