awareness
as a relation
that is reflection
it is the positing of x by x
(how did this come about?)
all awareness
finally self-awareness
what are the options here?
it seems some profound metaphysical shift
from one dimensional reality
(non-aware reality)
to self-aware reality
it's the separating out of an entity
into the relation of subject and object
subject aware of the object
the subject aware of the subject
awareness itself is still the mystery
we can only approach it via self awareness
and here - all we are presented with is the fact of it
no reason for it
no account of its origin
nature took a turn
or had a turn
and found itself - in various forms
seeing - seeing itself - and even seeing its seeing
it is an unexplainable event
evolution - meta / natural suggests itself here
but it is finally just to say
there was this development
not how or why
Darwin spoke of genetic change as blind
perhaps this is the key
the straightest assessment
on a metaphysical level
blind change tells us what?
the accident of necessity?
life or death -
