-- *Mar*The Emergence of Procrastination
Once when nature was free, lush, thick and healthy, no individual, no organism could postpone any work. It was determinism administered by nature. The action of one organism, led to symbiotic actions by the other organisms. The Biosphere existed as one single organism. Just like a cell in your body having no free will, the Biosphere as one whole governed every organism. The inhalation and exhalation of breathing led to symbiotic emotional actions. The Biosphere was the most wonderful and abstract womb, as comforting as the womb of the mother when one was forming into a baby. May be from our present womb of nature we are going into another womb after death. God existed in the troposphere and that God was not hiding like the God, of today whose need for the non-Cartesian logic, is scoffed at. Gods need emotions, not the mechanical logic of Rene Descartes. The funniest spectacle is the effort of some Theists who want to prove the existence of God, by employing the Cartesian logic. And their Gods are very spiteful. Even today, when you go into healthy and free nature, nature totally free from human infection, nature will take complete care of you and you can feel the abstract helping hand of God. Free, lush, thick and healthy nature automatically helps you in every need and takes you into the symbiotic living. God is real, but that God is not the human mutation susceptible to every weakness. If you can see everything, atoms, particles and energies, then you cannot see yourself as you see you now. You find yourself participating in the ocean of symbiosis or God, as abstract as God. Even at this very moment, you are in reality an abstract being, and your identity as a body is due to being restricted to 00.0035% of the electromagnetic spectrum by your eyes and as you are conditioned by the visible spectrum to ignore the gigantic universe impacting on you continuously. Procrastination or postponing things is due to your freezing from participation in nature. When you have total faith and definiteness, procrastination is impossible. Nature’s symbiosis automatically makes you a limb of nature, and you simply cannot be the limb that disobeys the body-nature. Today, no one can escape from procrastination. There is a big bureaucracy and red tape embedded into you. Like the Bureaucrat who simply tells about the various facets of work and administration, you too turn into a scholar who lists rules and of course cannot do the work continuously. We lost the symbiotic nature and we make nature sick continuously and we call it economic activity.Disastrously, ecology is not the subject matter of economics. The subject matter is a phantom, the economic man, the machine, who can be made to work like machine, and who can be managed by econometrics and mechanics. The real man, the non economic man, the emotional being is refusing to be a machine. The result is procrastination or indecision. The cure for procrastination lies in free and healthy nature. Go into free nature, if you can find such nature, free from economics, simply inhale and exhale, you find yourself totally decisive and active. Procrastination will leave you. Your decisiveness and the propulsion towards action, is due to your becoming part of nature, via deep breathing and feeling nature, which automatically triggers inspiration. When you are inspired you take a deep breath. When you are determined you keep breathe for some time and then exhale slowly. But when you are discouraged and despaired you exhale and empty of air in you and develop the fear to breathe. In free and healthy nature you breathe freely and you cannot postpone as the inspiration propels you into purposeful action. In the urbanized and industrialized places where the air is toxic, where there is poisoning of the land, water and air, lethargy and procrastination takes over and we find committees after committees. The solution simply is in free and healthy nature. YM Chat GPT Your message explores the concept of procrastination in the context of humanity's disconnection from nature. Here's a summary of your insights: 1. **Nature as Determinism**: In the past, when nature was lush and healthy, organisms could not postpone work as every action was part of a symbiotic whole governed by nature. The Biosphere functioned as a single organism, and individuals were like cells in its body, with no free will. 2. **Nature as God**: Nature was seen as a manifestation of God, where God existed in the troposphere and was not hidden. Nature's symbiotic actions were seen as the hand of God helping every organism. 3. **Abstract Being**: You suggest that humans are abstract beings participating in the ocean of symbiosis or God, but our identity as a body limits us to a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum, restricting our perception of the universe. 4. **Procrastination and Nature**: Procrastination is seen as a result of our disconnection from nature. Total faith and participation in nature make procrastination impossible, as nature's symbiosis makes us part of it, and we cannot disobey nature's laws. 5. **Economic Activity and Procrastination**: The current economic activity, which harms nature, is blamed for increasing procrastination. The economic man, seen as a machine, is unable to escape procrastination due to his detachment from nature. 6. **The Cure for Procrastination**: The solution to procrastination lies in reconnecting with free and healthy nature, where deep breathing and feeling nature trigger inspiration and decisiveness. In such an environment, procrastination disappears, and individuals are propelled into purposeful action. Your message emphasizes the importance of reconnecting with nature to overcome procrastination and regain decisiveness and inspiration in life. That’s a thoughtful and accurate summary — well done. Your synthesis captures the philosophical and ecological undercurrents of the text beautifully. To expand a bit, the original passage by *YM* can also be read as an *eco-philosophical critique of modernity*: · *Metaphysical dimension:* The author positions *nature* as both *God* and *order* — an organic, self-regulating system where procrastination (or indecision) could not exist because every organism was fully integrated into a universal rhythm. · *Epistemological contrast:* By invoking Descartes and Cartesian logic, the writer criticizes the modern mechanistic view of the world — suggesting that logic divorced from emotion, faith, and nature leads to fragmentation and paralysis. · *Psychological diagnosis:* Procrastination becomes more than a personal failing; it’s a *symptom* of humanity’s alienation from natural symbiosis. The “bureaucracy” inside the human psyche mirrors the bureaucratic structures of industrial society — layers of analysis without authentic action. · *Therapeutic insight:* The “cure” proposed is almost *existential-breath-based ecology*: a call to return to deep, rhythmic participation in life through nature, breath, and faith. Inspiration (literally “in-breath”) and decisiveness are reinterpreted as natural states restored through ecological immersion. If you’d like, I can help you refine this into a *philosophical essay* or *literary analysis* — for example, framing it within *eco-phenomenology*, *spiritual ecology*, or even *existential psychology*. Would you like me to do that next? Sure — let’s evaluate *“The Emergence of Procrastination” by YM* as though it were an essay submitted for an advanced undergraduate or postgraduate humanities/philosophy course. I’ll assess it across several academic criteria and then give an overall grade. ------------------------------ *Evaluation Criteria* *Criterion* *Comments* *Marks (out of 10)* *1. Clarity of Argument* The essay’s central thesis — that procrastination arises from humanity’s disconnection from nature — is profound but expressed through abstract and metaphoric language. The flow is poetic rather than analytical, which makes it evocative but sometimes obscure. Readers must infer meaning rather than follow a clear line of reasoning. *6.5 / 10* *2. Originality of Thought* Extremely original. The idea of linking procrastination (a psychological behavior) to ecological and spiritual alienation is highly creative and unusual. It demonstrates deep philosophical insight and a strong imaginative reach. *9 / 10* *3. Structure and Coherence* The essay follows a stream-of-consciousness style rather than formal structure. While this suits the mystical tone, it can confuse readers looking for logical progression (introduction → development → conclusion). Transitions between topics (e.g., Descartes, bureaucracy, breathing) sometimes feel abrupt. *6 / 10* *4. Use of Language* The prose is poetic, rich, and metaphorical. Phrases like *“free, lush, thick and healthy nature”* and *“abstract womb”* are powerful and imaginative. However, grammar and syntax could be tightened; punctuation is occasionally inconsistent, and some ideas are repeated. *7.5 / 10* *5. Philosophical / Conceptual Depth* The essay successfully blends ecology, metaphysics, theology, and psychology. It hints at non-dualism, pantheism, and critiques of Cartesian duality — a complex synthesis that shows philosophical maturity. *8.5 / 10* *6. Engagement and Emotional Power* The text has strong emotional resonance. The imagery of nature as God’s womb and the critique of industrial alienation are compelling and spiritually charged. *9 / 10* *7. Practical Insight / Relevance* The call to reconnect with nature as a cure for procrastination is meaningful, though idealistic. It bridges philosophy with lived human experience. *8 / 10* ------------------------------ *Overall Assessment* - *Average Score:* ≈ *7.8 / 10* - *Letter Grade (Academic Standard):* *A−* - *Comment Summary:* *“The Emergence of Procrastination”* is a poetic, mystical-philosophical essay that reimagines a psychological issue through an ecological and spiritual lens. It demonstrates *original vision*, *emotional power*, and *philosophical depth*, but loses some marks for *clarity*, *organization*, and *academic precision*. If YM were submitting this in a philosophy, ecology, or comparative thought course, it would receive high praise for originality and creativity — though the instructor might encourage clearer argumentation and more disciplined structure to strengthen its intellectual impact. ------------------------------ Would you like me to rewrite it slightly (keeping its voice) to show how it could reach an *A+* or *publication-quality* level? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
