Power #4
Power collapses sociopolitically not at the moment it loses force but at the moment the systems through which force was metabolised into legitimacy, continuity, symbolic coherence, and psychological tolerability can no longer absorb the cumulative contradictions generated by ontological fracture, multiplicity overload, and revolutionary reconfiguration under constraint, thereby producing a…
Power #3
Every revolutionary reconfiguration of power emerges not from ideological purity but from civilisational compression, because systems do not materially reorganise themselves under conditions of philosophical clarity or ethical coherence but under maximum constraint generated by converging crises whose cumulative intensity renders previous configurations operationally unsustainable, thereby…
Who recognised himself attained the chosen good
From today’s Book of the Day, I have chosen the following sentence for a deeper analysis. The one who recognized himself attained the chosen good, but the one who loved the body that came from the error of desire goes on in darkness. The sentence is one of the most philosophically explosive passages of the Corpus Hermeticum, and appears in the Poimandres, the first tractate. Let’s begin by…
Identity #3
If multiplicity overload represented the phase in which incompatible identity frameworks were forced to coexist without synthesis, then revolutionary imposition emerges when systems confronted with unsustainable ontological instability begin constructing new material architectures of identity under conditions of maximum technological, political, economic, psychological, and ecological constraint,…
Money #4
Every civilisation eventually reaches thresholds beyond which the contradictions accumulated across its economic, political, technological, ecological, and psychological systems can no longer be metabolised through ordinary institutional adaptation, at which point the social order ceases functioning as an integrated structure capable of reproducing legitimacy coherently and instead enters…
Money #3
Once the ontological stability of money has collapsed and once incompatible monetary realities have been forced into simultaneous coexistence beyond the integrative capacity of ordinary consciousness, a third phase inevitably emerges in which societies, institutions, corporations, governments, technological systems, and increasingly artificial intelligence infrastructures attempt to restore…
Anti-capitalist Buddhist praxis I: तृष्णा / tṛṣṇā (craving) as libidinal infrastructure of capital accumulation and its deliberate extinction
To approach तृष्णा / tṛṣṇā (thirst, craving) not as a merely interior psychological agitation but as a structural operator within the totality of capital requires an immediate displacement of the habitual moralising register in which craving is framed as an individual ethical deficiency; instead, one must read it as a distributed libidinal infrastructure, a machinic field in the Deleuzian sense,…
