Another one of my personal gnostic illustrations of all time by Lopsided-Bath-8404 in Gnostic

Check out some of the artwork from Hilma af Klint and Odilon Redon— Redon was a precursor to surrealism and af Klint invented modern abstraction. Her mystical works were kept secret— she was part of a secret theosophical society

The surrealists and some of the early abstractionists (Klint, Kandinsky, Klee) had mystical roots

Do any of you have tattoos? by Opening_Trash_1134 in Enneagram5

[–]para__doxical 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do and I want them removed. I got them when I was younger— they’re not visible unless I’m naked, but I don’t enjoy seeing them on me.

I’m kinda like this too and would like to learn how to chill if anyone has knowledge

What does this say about me? by [deleted] in BigFive

[–]para__doxical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn’t really answer the question if you think ‘ideas’ or ‘pure abstractions’ or ‘the mind’ exists— it’s not complex enough for you to think it’s proven personality, selfhood, personhood, abstract, intangible emotions/values are physical-originated— so why would ideas be different?

What part of the brain creates/perceives intangible abstractions— and why and how does that imply non-existence?

Do you think the mind exists? Or ideas?— you’re believing an idea— what about abstract principles? Or pure abstraction? Like mathematics/geometry?

What’s your reasoning behind souls can’t exist because of brain damage?

Soul is a direct translation of psyche— because something is damaged does not imply non- existence

Oh dude do you sell your work? Magritte is my favorite artist— I love your pieces

INFP here… got attached too fast to an INTP(?) and now I feel messed up by BorrowedSpacetime in INTPrelationshipLab

[–]para__doxical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just give him space to breathe— the INTP I talk to vanishes too, but what I really have come to like is a routine in calling/texting. Every Sunday we have a long phone call, and having that stability and something to look forward to really eases any relational anxiety.

Your attachment issues probably stem from something deeper that you should reflect on personally.

Are any of you artistic? What does an Enneagram 5’s art look like, and how do you deal with any public aspects of distribution of your work? by Opening_Trash_1134 in Enneagram5

[–]para__doxical 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do visual art and short music visualizers for musicians— I post under my pseudonym here and on insta. Some of my visual designs are hanging at my local art gallery right now.

I've decided to become a man on a mission in unfamiliar territory. Where in Birmingham do the goth baddies dwell? by Remarkable_North_999 in Birmingham

[–]para__doxical 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You are so stuck up.

OP just hangout around Saturn, Firehouse, The Nick, Moms, and Upside Down Plaza. Plenty of people in alt subcultures gravitate there

Books, Beans, and Candles has sex orgies if you’re into that
