THALES OF MILETUS [ pron. THA LEEZ of MY LEE TUS ] WAS THE FIRST PHILOSOPHER OF ANCIENT GREECE AND THUS THE FOUNDING FATHER OF WESTERN PHILOSOPHY... THE IMAGE [ LEFT ] FROM THE BOTTOM UP STARTS WITH THALES` ASCENT FROM HIS ANCESTORS AND ULTIMATELY THE GODS THEMSELVES ... TO THALES` RIGHT STANDS THE MUSE , ABOVE WHOM A BUTTERFLY FLUTTERS ... BOTH THE BUTTERFLY AND THE MUSE REPRESENT THE ASTRAL WORLD AND THE MUSE ALSO REPRESENTS HIS INSPIRATION ... CRUCIALLY IT IS THIS [ ASTRAL ] INSPIRATION THAT FUNCTIONS AS THE " BRIDGE " BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MUNDANE / PHYSICAL WORLD [ THE HIGHER / SPIRITUAL WORLD HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE ULTIMATE SOURCE OF EVERY SOUL DEEP PHILOSOPHY , EVERY PIECE OF SOUL DEEP ART , EVERY WISDOM THAT IS LATENT IN EVERY SOUL ... THE OWL TO THALES` LEFT TRADITIONALLY REPRESENTS WISDOM ... BUT ALSO DEATH ITSELF , BOTH DEATH OF IGNORANCE VIA ALCHEMICAL TRANSMUTATION IN THE ATHANOR OF DAILY EXISTENCE AND ALSO PHYSICAL DEATH AND AWAKENING ON THE SPIRITUAL PLANES ... AND THERE TRUE ENLIGHTENMENT AND ONENESS WITH THE ALL ... more to follow soonish ... MANY THANKS TO KEVAN 2I0BIQ FOR EMAILING ME THE MUSIC BY MOBY ... none can ever tell what was never told ... said the old man who walked lone on the wold ... when the inner becomes the outer ... the Great Work is done of Creator ... the Master Alchemist ... hush , tell none you have just read the deepest truth under Sun ... By an idiot who knows nothing and everything in equal measure ... such is the paradox of an asperger with a foot in both worlds above and below , yet belonging to none
