Absurdism and Trivialism‎‎[edit]

I thank you much for the creation of the page for Trivialism‎‎, which is in some ways a specific region of the broader forms of absurdism. I was not actually planning to create such a page myself any time soon, but it is a very welcome addition, and "believe it or not" — I actually had been very inspired just a few hours ago, by the confluence of many events and influences, to emphasize the "What me Worry?" aspects of things MUCH more strongly in coming weeks. This fits in well with many of the ideas I have planned to present here and elsewhere in the months ahead, in attempts to jolt many out of their conceited complacency, arrogant apathy and niggardly nihilism. I am yet well aware it can be a VERY dangerous idea to present to people without inoculating them to various forms of extremely naïve narcissism and even profoundly stupid solipsism; the irony of things is of course, that those most inclined to assume the prominence of such qualities in others outlooks, are actually usually psychologically projecting aspects of their own onto others, and most do not even have much of a clue as to this and MANY other facts which are obvious to those of extensive observational abilities.

You're very wise, my friend. Happiness is so very simple, isn't it? --Immanuel Thoughtmaker (talk) 06:01, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Simple AND Complex. Always, in ALL ways. ~ Kalki·· 06:18, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Complexity only exists when there is something that is not known, something that is not seen as true. There is only purity in the eyes of one who looks to all without expectation and sees that all that will exist inherently exists. --Immanuel Thoughtmaker (talk) 07:44, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I believe I have a somewhat broader perspective on that, in some ways, and have recognized complex aspects and apparently simple truths in diverse perceptions and contradictory assertions about them in many ways which can be sometimes be easily explored, though not always easily explained. I am quite content to let others perceive things or fail to perceive them in such ways as I consider simple or complex — but I know that words and symbols are always limiting means of indication of much of the relative simplicities or complexities that can be perceived — and I presently have many complex and simple tasks to finish in the coming day, so I can't spend much more time here. ~ Kalki·· 08:06, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It has been a pleasure. I am a genuine trivialist and I am happy to discuss this into the future. --Immanuel Thoughtmaker (talk) 10:05, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It is unusual and pleasing to encounter someone who openly asserts convictions which to the casual observer are more unusual, silly, incredible and incomprehensible than some of my own. IF I were to take what you have said as entirely true, and exclude provisional or contradictory assessments and assertions, I would not be a very competent absurdist, nor an entirely devoted trivialist either — which is certainly something I do not actually claim to be. I appreciate the stance as amusing, delightful, and potentially stable for some, like that of the Discordians, yet without embracing it as entirely adequate or sufficient in itself. I certainly am not prone to be bigoted against trivialists, as many would be, but I do tend to be cautious around those who are making assumptions I do not perceive to be valid or correct, in some vitally important ways.
As a sometimes "mischievous" "absurdist universalist mystic" of the Overwhelming Magnificence and Obvious Manifestations of Omnipresent Mystery, I am generally jovial and tolerant, but not always so, and genuinely delighted with many forms of diversity, but I always remain adamantly skeptical of anyone's claims or assertions of being an "absolute" anything in such terms as have common meaning (in many senses of that word). I can usually quite easily and swiftly see MANY of the truths AND falsities of many ranges of ideas and assertions that arise among various forms of awareness, ignorance and confusion which ever exist among our apparent minds and forms of mindfulness. I have had such peculiar capacities since infancy, and unlike many who believe themselves "mature" by accepting such narrow and confining but apparently "comfortable" safe and pleasing "reality assessments" as are popular and powerful, I have never abandoned far wider paths of awareness and appreciation than they have ever traversed. I too am somewhat habitually "divergent" in my thoughts.
I must now get back to doing other things — and have only a short time to do much. I expect I will probably have a bit less of a hectic period sometime next week. So it goes Blessings. ~ Kalki·· 20:00, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
