Cosmologia Ludica (trans. Play Cosmology), is a whimsical philosophical investigation and prayerbook to “divine play” – defined as joyful listening and responding to the unknown without craving or aversion. When we are able to distance ourselves from the egoic rush felt in most popular games and sports, then, divine play finds us, in the soft shaking of leaves on branches, in the emotions felt in our bodies as we pass through our busy days, in the beautiful conversations that ensue with others, in the vibrant dance of music, in the shared resonance of our moving bodies as we tumble against each other. What kind of listening and responding to the unknown will bring you to your deepest and highest joy? What divine game will you play? This is one of the essential questions of life. The God of Play is asking it of you.https://www.blurb.com/b/11140542-cosmologia-ludica

Inside of you lies your darkest darkness – a darkness even greater than fear. Fear is typically some sort of external threat, some- thing that may end your life, or a thing that brings about great tor- ture or pain. The darkest darkness, the most shadowy shadow, the most bilious evil, is something inside of you. It could be horrific thoughts or actions that you could commit to others – grave violences, horrible and malicious acts such as murdering your friends or axing up your lovers. But the most horrific acts, the most splendid atrocities are always more than just pure physical violence. As Nietzsche and Foucault tell us, there are spiritual or psychic sufferings that are far worse than the greatest physical violences. The greatest pains are never physical. The greatest horrors are not the kind of fears that horror films express. What are some examples of these horrors? Abandonment. Feeding someone with hope and then pulling it away. Feeding someone with security and then pull- ing the rug out from under them. Allowing someone to trust you and then, once you become their source of comfort and security, feeding (into the very core of their being) words that puncture their entire self image and dissolve any sense of comfort or stability. Moulding someone to your own will to make them a mere puppet of your desires. Stealing away from someone the only true happiness they contain.
