I could not resist the deep irksome feeling, troubled by a lack of cohesive unity in my discourse on God and the nature of the Self. While the underlying fundamental conception has been presented in the written work, I fear that the reader will not be able to ascertain the true nature of my work, and indeed even I believe that a fundamental aspect has simply remained unwritten within the context of the articles. I seek to rectify this problem by attacking its root, an insufficient doctrine on the nature of the self - most specifically on the Will. The nature of the physical body is not of precise concern to this philosophy, it can be described by a logical system but it is not in my interest to specifically detail it for it should provide no metaphysical value. Simply acknowledging of its existence seems to be adequate at this moment in time. Moreover the mind, in its glorious splendor and horrid complexity can, and will, be tackled in more detail; but it only entails the dynamics of human perception and its cognition through logic within the vast meta-structure of existence. It is this meta-structure, the soul, the Will, that forms the root of existence, and in relating its metaphysical and epistemological being I can bring oneness to my philosophy.
My whole philosophy rests upon a notion of oneness, the conception of 'Singularity' brings it into play in detailing the very being of reality. But how does a conception acquire actual being more than its mere name? The metaphysical grounds of being rests upon a notion of 'isness', that an object simply 'is'. For a singularity to simply be there must be something more than its name, in my previous article 'Metaphysics of Awareness' I justify my belief in all reality being awareness. Thus the root of being for objects is truly a manifestation of the root of being of the self. We ask the question on a higher level, what is it that causes the self to be? What lies beyond the conception of the Soul as totality and oneness of the self, to a very real applied instance of this as awareness?
It is the Will that locks singularity into itself, by this I mean it brings the word into the dimension of its meaning. What is being stated here is more profound than it may seem, perhaps at the onset of my philosophy I believed that the being of substance is none other than the conception in the mind. But really there are two distinct concepts here which must be unified, one is the perception by the mind and the other is its actual being. The two are clearly inextricably linked in that the perception and actual being are both manifestations of awareness, and here it is the Will which precisely represents that paradigm. The will is a metaphysical construction which aids the problem that in existence being spoken of, it is demoted to a property applied rather than an essence pure. What is produced is an underlying field of existence, which we want to hold as innate. In binding this field of existence to the substance itself this innate ontology is manifested, the substance rests upon its own existence which in turn rests upon the existence of higher structures eventually leading to the being of the self.
I now seek to define the Will more abstractly. Previously, we had stated that the human Will is cognition of the self, by which I mean conception of the totality of the self indexed by the self. Perhaps this is a convoluted description of a very fundamental concept; that the self is through the self; otherwise understood as awareness being manifest through ontology. A general conception of the will must be independent of awareness such that it may apply to non-human substances. Singularities in themselves can be said to have an existence rested upon the foundation of their form, the precise idea that we sought; I refer to this as being 'in itself'. Henceforth my definition:
The Will of a singularity refers to its being in itself.
This is not to introduce an external concept of being independent of awareness, which would contradict the very foundation of my philosophy. This is to treat the human Will as the fabric of existence, the Will that any singularity takes to breath life into its concept is a form of the human Will, which could again be said to be a form of the divine Will.
Leading on from the 'in itself' notion, I would also like to review my account of the Fundamental Ontology. I believe its previous expression did not capture the innate essence of being in the capacity that I wished it to.
Previous I defined the Fundamental Ontology as a theorem stating the ability to conceive of singularity itself. Now,
Fundamental Ontology: We can conceive of conception.
Proof: To conceive of conception is to say that there is a singularity of conception. The forms of this singularity would be every possible instance of conception, which would require us to speak of every possible form conceivable. The absolute totality of form conceivable to the mind culminates in the self, since every form in question innately contains the 'aspect of conception' we can henceforth produce a totality of every such conception. This produces the singularity of conception itself, hereby proving the theorem.
This innate essence of ontology is embodied more clearly, in truth that we can conceive of conception should be a triviality to the mind in our being aware of it. The innate 'in itself' archetype is represented in this theorem for we wanted to conceive on every form conceivable, but in the form being conceivable in itself the required totality comes about easily. This is no trick in which I attempt to deceive the reader, the heart of this theorem is indeed subtle; I would beckon the reader to meditate over what existence 'in itself' truly means in order to uncover the meaning.
