June 28: An attempt at recapping and clarifying my thinking on gush and truth today. That means . . . terminology! Verosopher (vehr AH suh fuhr), Gushosopher (guhsh AH suh fuhr), Philogusher (fihl AH guh shuhr) and Holiscient (hah LIH see' ehnt). One who seeks significant material knowledge; one who mistakes subjective feelings for significant knowledge; one with an emotional understanding of the elements of the universe; one who understands both what the verosopher knows and the philogusher feels.
Stray related observations: both a verosopher and a gushosopher begin with premises (nouns plus verbs)); but only the former reasons from his premises to greater knowledge; the latter just adds adjectives to his premises. A primary premise of verosophers is that the ability to perceive matter is all we have to work with; gushosophers believe in undefinable other abilities sensitive to other elements of the universe besides matter, also undefinable. Objectivity and communicability versus subjectivity and hermeticism.
More in due course, I hope. I still feel very sleepy. So far today (10 A.M.) I've felt a bit better than yesterday. Starting at around six this morning, I walked three miles in fifty minutes or so--something I did yesterday, too--and didn't feel exhausted, so physically I'm doing okay for an elderly patient. I feel semi-eager to start seriously writing, but got no motor.
