Man is problematic to himself, because he does not understand his existential position, which is to accept responsibility for life?his life It is a duty not an obligation. He is not obligated, but whatever, he does have moral consequences. Without making a commitment to himself, he cannot live a moral and ethical life. Morality is utilitarian. This is not meant in a selfish way, for the commitment is to life. Even so, life only becomes meaningful and purposeful through the individual?we each lives in a vast expanse of ?nothingness? behind us, ahead and around us, which has no intrinsic or extrinsic meaning. Meaning and purpose come to us from the reality, we produce in consciousness. Truth is only in the reality we can conceive, perceive. And we only believe that to which we have made a commitment.

Every heart throb of life beats In unison with the contrition And the forgiveness of the Universe. Through the tendrils of imagination Our bodies entwines with the Universe, Every sinew binds as ligaments. The Universe is an expansion, A reflection in consciousness, of A Universal mind. The Universal mind is our mind. Our body is the Universe. Neither exists without the other In the dark long crawling night Where my eyes awake robs my sleep. Away in the distance I hear the whispers Of a trillion stars. Resuscitate me, they say, in you dream; If ever you dream again For without the dream we are: A sparkle of light without meaning. Vortices of energy unto itself, imploding
