Proxima Centauri

There is something to which we might adapt: that is, there are no straight lines anywhere, and knowledge is a natural, spontaneous condition of humanity;  the ability to know, and to understand has always been developing with people but it varies from next to next. The universe is so expansive that to speak of ends and beginnings, or even of free will is simply a misuse of language; these are things of which we have to experience. We can, however, know ourselves as reflections of a particular part of the universe, maybe even explaining some of it. One of the difficulties, though, is the assumption that there are hierarchies of knowledge and not just multiple variations of it. Language, or painter's brushstrokes or the pressing of piano keys all express something in a way that cannot be expressed by the other. Also, there may not be any free will at all. But can this, after all, be negative when it only endows everything with cosmic presence and a sacred aspect which Mahatma Ghandi always spoke of; even the word "negative" is a necessity, a feedback, and relationship.
