“Philosophy, in the most authentic sense of this word, is an enquiry into the basic character and the implications of human experience and, in the most general sense of the term, existence. [Italics the author’s] The purpose of such an enquiry seems obvious. It is to enable human beings to collectively and individually develop their innate potentialities with the best possible chance of success, of total happiness and/or self-transformation toward higher levels of fulfillment.”
by Dane Rudhyar
Thus begins Dane Rudhyar’s 1970/77 book. How far, it seems, we have come since we honored the philosophers in our society. For some of us, it becomes difficult to lift ourselves up above mundane human existence and we leave the philosophy part to the scholars. But there are questions that we must ask ourselves and, as humans, this is a part of our existence on Planet Earth. Perhaps the most essential questioning starts with ‘Why am I here? Who am I here to BE?’
Let’s promise ourselves that we will focus on those questions and look for the lessons that contain the answers. We ARE here to develop our innate potentialities!
