notes-singularity

" What is most remarkable is that movement and change are actually prized for their own sake, and not in view of any end to which they may lead; this is a direct result of the absorption of all human faculties in outward action whose necessarily fleeting character has just been demonstrated. Here again we have dispersion, viewed from a different angle and at a more advanced stage; it could be described as a tendency towards instantaneity, having for its limit a state of pure disequilibrium, which, if it were possible, would coincide with the final dissolution of ths world; and this too is one of the clearest signs that the final phose of the Kali-Yuga is at hand. " -- Chapter "Knowledge and action", the crisis of the modern world, Rene Guenon

(not to say that I agree with Rene Guenon -- I haven't read any of his books, but I believe he's anti-individualist)
