"The instant you reach what is interesting in terms of meaningfulness, words stop.
-Wittengenstein


This: the inaudible, not satisfied with abstract thought, wants empirical observation, but does not conceive the framed and reframed world as practical, human sense in conversation. A common speed resolves the essence of religion into the essence of man. But the practice of rediscovery is not an abstraction inherent in each particular individual. The repetitive instance of man is the totality of picky patterns. Of the everyday household, one who does not enter upon a criticism of this real academic environment, is therefore obliged:

1.) to abstract from the historical process, mirrored in the religious sentiment, and to postulate natural waves, an abstract-isolated-human ripple

2.) to conceive the nature of man only in terms of progressive explosions, as an inner and mute universal, which unites the many individuals in a purely natural (splash) way.
