First Cause, or ‘Original Sin’. Seeking First Fault of/in the Absolute

Monism (Platonism, Pythagoras, Neoplatonism, Advaita, original Buddhism) by definition, has irreducibly as truth NOTHING but the Absolute and its attribute, both of which are 1 (1 is to Phi as Phi is to 1, or that Phi and 1 are the same definition/number).

Those (fools, profane commonfolk) who seek out either in this world, or the other (real), or in/of the Absolute for a “first cause”, or “original sin” will come up empty, save for their fantasies, speculations, and ignorance-begotten lies.

Monism by definition DENIES aught but the One, simplex as it is divine. Causation requires, or necessitates X as locus outside or as other to the Absolute, i.e. an impossibility against the truth, against Monism. If one seeks cause within, or locus, of the One by the One upon itself, then the metaphysical fallacy of compounding THAT (the One) which is most simplex is incurred. In the ignorance of Creationism, the One is a Being (compounded by nature and definition, both metaphysical and symbolically concrete); is compounded and therefore cause is attributed (sic) to the One. This is both logically untenable and absurd in abductive examination.

The One, in attribute (also the One) is the aoristos dyas (indefinite dyad) as coined by the Pythagoreans/Platonists, however this is a linguistic convention for inferring to the extrinsic principle of the One as both itself (as One) and what It is (as One) extrapolated in necessity (ananke) to extension (proodos).

The abstruse metaphysical dialectic of the One is incomprehensible to most (as seen in Plato’s Parmenides, an impenetrable text to almost all), but with sufficient wisdom (which is of course the Self, the soul, the atman) all becomes increasingly clear, there is no first cause, no locus of X to point to as the reason/cause/impetus for the embodiment /ensoul(-ing) of the Self/soul as coordinate to this temporal mirage/memetic-puppet composed of corporeal humors.

Avijja/avidya is not literally ‘ignorance’, nor is there a metaphysical locus IN or OF the One, or the Soul for same, there is no ‘first cause’ for the descent of Being, those looking for same will come up empty; we few (who know) leave such fairytales to the Creationists who have sufficient fingers to point out sin or original sin to he/she or other.

There are four Greek terms, and four Pali/Sanskrit terms that have between them, nearly 100+ books in explaination and speculation, and why? Because it takes wisdom to grasp what they differ to. These terms being tolma, ananke, logos, aoristos dyas, avijja, maya, etc.

There is a level of abductive insight required thru a lens of wisdom to which no amount of reading the very best books ever written on earth (and I have them all, both best, great, good and bad) will give one insight into the nature of totality, of the One…, this is the closed loop of existential investigation, episteme, the temporal conscious hamster-wheel of circular (=corporeal) investigation to which metaphysics by definition is transcendent thereto and inviting thereof.

There is only one wholesome desire to have, that of wisdom, for it is the only one which can be “fulfilled”, that desire must be both enjoined, expanded, and made proximal. In the metaphysics of Monism, it is irreducible that wisdom and the soul/atman are ONE and the same thing, Self-proximity requires wisdom, wisdom IS by definition both Self-proximity AND the very Self one seeks, but not hither or thither but recollectively (anamnesis/ sati/ via negativa methodologies) by gnosis, which is inparticipate to human consciousness and its machinations…the wise have wisdom sufficient to know that conscious investigation in its fullest cannot ever lead to the vault of wisdom/soul/self, much less enter thereto.

Do NOT seek for a first cause, there is none, nor original sin, nor X outside of, or ‘other than’ the One, the Absolute, the Divine Principle the genuine philosophers seeks to make synthesis (epistrophe/samadhi) to.
