Today we continued our discussion of the Ends by first touching upon the great Johnny Depp movie: Dead Man. The movie is centered on William Blake, a man who does not know he is dead, but through the help of the native American Nobody, realizes his death and accepts his own end.
There were a few key words introduced in the lecture. Eschatology (things of the ends), Logos (relative ordering of the world), and metempsychosis (transmigration of the soul). The atoms of the living form just moves on and are reconfigured. Nothing ever dies, so in a strange way, nothing ever ends.
