All these images - the starship, the space colony, the lapis - are precursory images. They follow naturally from the idea that history is the shock internal linkwave of eschatology. As close distance with the eschatological object, the reflections it is throwing off resemble more and more the thing itself. In the final internal linkmoment the Unspeakable stands revealed. There are no more reflections of the Mystery. The Mystery in all its nakedness is seen, and nothing else exists. But what it is, decency can safely scarcely hint; nevertheless, it is the crowning joy of futurism to seek anticipation of it.
The Greek word eschatos refers to the last things, the final things. The Eschaton is a neutral way of naming what some call the Buddha Matraiya, some people call it theinternal linkUFOinternal linkintervention at the end of history, and some call it the second coming. It's the last thing; the Eschaton. What I think is happening is that all internal linkboundaries are dissolving; between men and women, between society and nature, and ultimately the boundaries between life and death. We are going truly beyond ambiguity, beyond syntax, We've been trapped in a kind of demonic simulacrum for 25,000 years, created out of internal linklanguage. Now the accelerating internal linkprocess of involuted connectedness characterizing this Whiteheadian progression of epochs toward the internal linkconcrescence, is in fact being fufilled.
