The Book of the Damned

That
there
is
only
this
one
process,
and
that
it
does
animate
all
expressions,
in
all
fields
of
phenomena,
of
that
which
we
think
of
as
one
inter-continuous
nexus:
The
religious
and
their
idea
or
ideal
of
the
soul.
They
mean
distinct,
stable
entity,
or
a
state
that
is
independent,
and
not
a
mere
flux
of
vibrations
or
complex
of
reactions
to
environment,
continuous
with
environment,
merging
away
with
an
infinitude
of
other
interdependent
complexes.
But
the
only
thing
that
would
not
merge
away
into
something
else
would
be
that
besides
which
there
is
nothing
else.
That
Truth
is
only
another
name
for
the
positive
state,
or
that
the
quest
for
Truth
is
the
attempt
to
achieve
positiveness:
Scientists
who
have
thought
that
they
were
seeking
Truth,
but
who
were
trying
to
find
out
astronomic,
or
chemic,
or
biologic
truths.
But
Truth
is
that
besides
which
there
is
nothing:
nothing
to
modify
it,
nothing
to
question
it,
nothing
to
form
an
exception:
the
all-inclusive,
the
complete--
By
Truth
I
mean
the
Universal.
So
chemists
have
sought
the
true,
or
the
real,
and
have
always
failed
in
their
endeavors,
because
of
the
outside
relations
of
chemical
phenomena:
have
failed
in
the
sense
that
never
has
a
chemical
law,
without
exceptions,
been
discovered:
because
chemistry
is
continuous
with
astronomy,
physics,
biology--For
instance,
if
the
sun
should
greatly
change
its
distance
from
this
earth,
and
if
human
life
could
survive,
the
familiar
chemic
formulas
would
no
longer
work
out:
a
new
science
of
chemistry
would
have
to
be
learned--
