...the quiet moment symbolized by a comma is indeed where all our linguistic and living magic takes place...all our souls originate from the silent nothingness...Life is full of commas...there are moments that leave you hanging with an utter sense of wordlessness...they are 'life-commas' as I call them...they make us drop our jaws in awe at the sheer enormity of what is happening...this book is about MOMENTS such as these...moments that give us reason for pause...moments of brilliance, of mistakes, of tragedy, of beauty, of rage, and tranquility...of accidental perfections, and purposeful imperfections, moments that matter and are truly important...because regardless of how many words we speak to one another...they all somehow eventually become lost in the silence...and when we are at one with ourselves in the silence of our own hearts we are living embodiments of the concept of the comma...which is enlightenment...that is where this book and life itself was conceived/written...inside moments born from the comma...moments of silence, silence so loud that it speaks to the soul...silent moments that signify nothing...but that signify everything at the same time...because they are quiet but meaningful too...life-commas signify the nothing that is indeed SOMETHING...so as you read this Sutra, read it as it appears...because there is a rhythm to reading, and to living for that matter, and so let the comma and the quiet speak to you...let it permeate you...take advantage of the loud times when you will be amazed into silence...and the quiet times when you will be shocked into screaming belief...and know that each moment, whether silent or blaring...know that each moment is spectacular and alive!!!

  • Los (no) saberes del poema.
    Frank Nagel / Javier Gómez-Montero
    La tradición de la modernidad puede considerarse también bajo el signo de la negatividad. Tanto la insistencia en conceptos de privación, diferencia y ausencia que caracterizan ciertos debates filosóficos de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, así como las figuras herméticas privilegiadas desde la lírica del simbolismo y las vanguardias imponen una ruptura de la mirada habitual y ve...
