Searchers - Intro (2): The What
Dividing the world, it's a tiresome and at times troublesome affair, hinting at a greater, better, ordered, maybe free abstraction of the whole to be searched for. Searching for it, one may wander asking, rarely or frequently - the important part is asking, is it intelligible, once the 'it' fits the whole greater, better, ordered, free business. It might be that others have their own version of 'it' or that their ways carry them away from you, the searcher. A searcher does not necessarily partake in the world-splitting games among others, though it is tempting, rather the others seek him. Naturally, the searchers approve or not to join in the game - it's up to them and the tempting offering.
Still, What is a searcher looking for? And, equally important, What is a searcher?
The 'it', the greater, shinier, ultra item earlier discussed is, in short, a world in their image. An abstraction, to be sure, but one that's convincing, broadly or narrowly - this time, it sort of matters. If the image displays a broad appeal, others call it objective, if not - it's art. The broad acceptance makes it, apparently, true. There are times when others relate to art as if it's broadly pleasing or it should be objective - this dubious alchemy converting the particular image into a general one is controversial. A general image commands, a particular image hides. The artists' side thrives within mistery and freedom of expression, the generals search for power and servitude in consensus.
The good and the evil of it, the beauty and ugliness, it varies, and they may show inclinations towards any, but the common path is the order they both establish. The generals provide a code, the artists project a direction. Afterwards, the codes and directions are used by the fatedealers and conservationtinkers upon others, while the lawless object, avoid or ignore the two.
What is a searcher? The 'What' is justified (instead of 'Who') for it implies a larger pool of possibilities... and this is desirable, because swimming in a barrel is displeasing and potentially dangerous, especially if there is Someone gunning for you. This means that a 'searcher' is not necessarily an individual, but an individual can be a searcher. The searcher is an ideal, a code provider or a direction projector, and individuals can become identified with one.
The above reasoning is appropriate for other ideally constructed ordered 'What' individuals, like fatedealers and conservationtinkers. Conservationtinkers make and choose the order, while fatedealers keep it.
The lawless are a different story, for they reject codes and directions and true to their chaotic nature, no one is necessarily a lawless all the time - while everyone can, presumably, spontaneously reject, and may prefer to accept another code or direction, or nothing, while waiting for or undertaking other searches or going Somewhere for Something. The lawless wish for changes and alternatives, basically, and where there's ample room for them to be, THAT'S THE PLACE TO BE - like a large swimming pool in summer or a well-stocked knowledge-and-life-base for the avid searcher!
