Apeiron

from Apeiron by Max Gael Martin

/

about

Other pre-Socratic philosophers had different theories of the apeiron. For the Pythagoreans (in particular, Philolaus), the universe had begun as an apeiron, but at some point it inhaled the void from outside, filling the cosmos with vacuous bubbles that split the world into many different parts. For Anaxagoras, the initial apeiron had begun to rotate rapidly under the control of a godlike Nous (Mind), and the great speed of the rotation caused the universe to break up into many fragments. However, since all individual things had originated from the same apeiron, all things must contain parts of all other things—for instance, a tree must also contain tiny pieces of sharks, moons, and grains of sand. This alone explains how one object can be transformed into another, since each thing already contains all other things in germ.

lyrics

Believe in little thing – in mercy
Believe that it's not a fancy
You can reach out the sky
Forget about fears – you can fly.

Emptiness

There is nothing
Don't look for sense
In total is everything
Here only beginning and end
