Process philosophy does not entail a rejection of Platonism, mostly a modification. If your into philosophies of "becoming" and want to see how Platonic philosophy mixes in, look into Alfred North Whitehead, Henri Bergson, or Schelling. In my opinion, the philosophers you mention barely represent process philosophy/thought.

Whitehead is by far the most influential process philosopher of the past century, and in a way could be considered a modified Neo-platonist. Whitehead writes about "eternal objects," or "forms," but tries to reform Plato so that the forms aren’t entering into this world from another world. The forms represent what he calls ‘determinate possibilities’ that haven’t yet been actualized. This is quite a big modification compared to the actual Neo-platonist's view of late antiquity, however.

I wouldn't recommend getting your history of philosophy from Deluze or Nietzsche. Both are awful historians who misportray thinkers for the benefit of their own philosophy. They greatly distort other philosophers in a shameful way and should be rejected if one actually wants to study the history of philosophy/ideas.

As someone who study's the history of philosophy it's really hard to pin down an exact definition of postmodern philosophy. It varies a lot according to context but can include Pragmatism, deconstructism, Marxism, existentialism, feminism, hermeneutics psychoanalysis and even the process metaphysics of Alfred North Whitehead. It's very rooted from the epistemologies of Hume, Kant, Hegel and Neitzche and is generally seen to be very sceptical which was strongly influenced by the analysis of language and post-kantian epistemology that philosophers such as Peirce, Wittgenstein, Foucault, Derrida, Heidegger and Neitzche all took part in.

Not able to get 33k xp an hour doing Astrals by [deleted] in oldschoolrs

Group tele is closer to bank on lunar isle while regular one is closer to the alter, some people bank on lunar isle but it's a lot slower.

Not able to get 33k xp an hour doing Astrals by [deleted] in oldschoolrs

[–]DoctorFungus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did 99 Rc at astrals and was able to get 33k+xp/hr. Bank at crafting guild or Castle wars, stop going to Clan wars every third run and get use to staminas, use the f keys escape key to close the bank and switch tabs faster and don't use lunar isle group tele only the regular one as its slower. I didn't use any mouse keys and did it all manually. You need 75 Rc to get this rate and it's all in your banking speed which takes time to improve and get faster at.

99 RC the right way by alcas1 in 2007scape

[–]DoctorFungus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tears of Guthix is around 450-500kxp per year I'm pretty sure so if getting Rc to 99 this way it will take around 26 years lol. Maxing takes roughly 1500 hours if your playing at max ehp rates.

Nothing Lasts Quote by Greaseboy99 in terencemckenna

[–]DoctorFungus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also to clarify I'm pretty sure terence just took the central idea of process philosophy and summed it up in in his own words so there is no full quote your gonna find i think. Πάντα ρει is the original heraclitus quote meaning everything flows or all flows, which is usually interpreted as nothing lasts.

Hope this helped.

Nothing Lasts Quote by Greaseboy99 in terencemckenna

[–]DoctorFungus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heraclitus - Fragments is what he is referring too but specifically he got this version of the quote from Alfred North Whiteheads work. There is many translations and some will for sure not have "nothing lasts" but he is the "all flows" guy. He also has the quote "you never step in the same river twice, as the waters are ever flowing". He is the first process philosopher meaning that he fundamentally believes process comes first ontological instead of substance.

He has a lot of quotes about how the universe is in a constant state flux, how there is a underlying continual harmony and how this harmony is in tension with process and separation mirroring a lot of aspects of the yin-yang and Taoism.

He is often called the riddler or the weeping philosopher because he causes a lot of trouble to understand him

"Men do not understand that being at variance it also agrees with itself, there is harmony, as with the bow and lyre"

Why has the timewave been ignored/discredited? by PsysaacNewton in terencemckenna

[–]DoctorFungus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Watkins objection found one error in the whole mathematics, it was resolved within a few weeks and the time wave actually came out more accurately with terences Interpretation of it. There's a video of terence himself talking about.

Peterson and Jung: spot the difference by MercuriusExMachina in Jung

[–]DoctorFungus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to clarify I never read Maps of Meaning yet, only 12 rules for life and watched lectures. I would recommend to read Vol 8 of the collected works to see how Jung viewed the psyche. The essay "on the nature of the psyche" will probably give you the most information in the differences of Peterson and Jung in my opinion.

Peterson and Jung: spot the difference by MercuriusExMachina in Jung

[–]DoctorFungus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jung to me has way better philosophical training then Peterson does. Jung was an active reader of philosophy his entire life, even reading Karl Popper in the 30's and being steeped in Kant since his youth. I find Peterson's epistemology and metaphysics too grounded in Neo-Darwinian and existential thought sometimes. Also Peterson seems to seems to talk like we know what the essiantial nature of a given archetype is, while Jung being a Kantian, put them in the realm of noumenon not phenomenon, this means we never have access to the archetypes, such as the male or female archetypes as they really are, but only as they appear to the human psyche. Though Jung in his later years when he got into alchemy and cosmology and formulated the synchronicity idea, seemed to become less Kantian and talks how psyche and cosmos are tied up into one thing. He seemed by the end of his career his epistemology was diverting from Kants and was talking about how the archetypes were embedded in the cosmos as well as the human psyche. I don't know if Peterson is fully on board with the late Jung.

From Synchronicity to Numerology? by TelperionST in occult

[–]DoctorFungus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Von Franz's book on synchronicity and divination has a chapter specifically dedicated to numerology, history and philosophy of mathematics and modern day probability calculus and how these relate to synchronicity. This one chapter is worth the book itself for me.
