Enlightenment
is not an asexual, dispassionate,
head-in-the-clouds, nails-in-the-palms
disappearance from the game of life. It’s a
volcanic, kick-ass, erotic commitment
to love in action, coupled with
hard-headed practical
grist.
QUESTION.

What’s yours?
ANSWER.
To show what a moral vision
would look like if it were rooted in the quest
for beauty, truth, love, pleasure, and liberation
instead of order, control, politeness,
fear, and self-denial.
