Tool - Parabola

We barely remember, who or what came before this precious moment. We are choosing to be here, right now. Hold on, stay inside… This holy reality, this holy experience. Choosing to be here in… This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal all this pain is an illusion. Alive… I… In this holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be here in… This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal all this pain is an illusion. Twirling ‘round with this familiar parable. Spinning, weaving ‘round each new experience. Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing, a chance to be alive and breathing. This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality. Embrace this moment. Remember; we are eternal, all this pain is an illusion.

Is-Not

The Judgements determine what is. Parabola's citizens are Is-Not. Sunlight destroys them, starlight corrodes them. Dreams come at night. Dreams thrive in the Neath. The Judgements cannot see.

I love when Fallen London wants content to not spoil things but it was very clearly written when the concept of what's "late-game" or "a major spoiler" was very different.

It's always saying stuff like "He briefly mentions Parabola but before you can ask what that is he changes the subject" and it's like dude I have a studio apartment there, me and my friends all go birdwatching in Parabola on the weekends, you just need to know which birds are safe to look at.

Look. Look I KNOW Parabola has nothing to do with being plural. I KNOW it's about spirituality and the human experience and cherishing being alive. But THESE:

ARE SOME PLURAL ASS LYRICS.

[eusouevangelica-eusouevangelico]

O Reino dos Céus é como um tesouro perdido! (Mt 13:44)

Na parábola de Cristo, Ele narra a história de um homem que descobriu um tesouro enterrado em um campo, tão valioso que o levou a uma decisão radical. Assim que percebeu o valor daquele achado, o homem vendeu tudo o que possuía para adquirir o campo. Não porque o campo em si tivesse grande valor, mas porque nele estava escondido o tesouro que mudaria sua vida.

Esse homem simboliza cada um de nós. Seus bens representam tudo o que consideramos precioso neste mundo, enquanto o tesouro é o Reino dos Céus.

Com esta parábola, Cristo nos convida a refletir: estou disposto a abrir mão de tudo o que considero mais valioso em troca do Reino dos Céus? Estou usando os dons e recursos que Deus me deu para alcançar o que é eterno?

O homem da parábola não hesitou; ele compreendeu que o tesouro tinha um valor incalculável, muito superior a tudo o que possuía. Da mesma forma, somos chamados a buscar o Reino de Deus em primeiro lugar, utilizando tudo o que temos – nossos talentos, tempo e recursos – em prol do Céu.

Agora, pense: você tem dado valor ao Reino e à sua salvação? O que você tem priorizado mais do que a promessa do Reino após a volta de Cristo? Pode ser um momento, uma pessoa, prazeres temporários, escolhas erradas, ou até você mesmo. Priorizar algo só acontece quando reconhecemos seu valor acima dos outros. Se deseja dar valor ao Reino, ore ao Rei para que seus olhos e coração sejam transformados, para que você veja e valorize Cristo acima de tudo. Após isso busque-O nas Escrituras para conhecer mais ao Rei e se tornar mais parecido com Ele, visto que o servo sempre será parecido com aquele a quem serve. Assim darás cada vez mais valor ao que tem o mais alto valor e, de fato, é o mais importante.

Como disse John Piper: “A verdadeira conversão é experimentar uma mudança de coração e mente que valoriza Deus em Cristo mais do que a própria vida.”

Am I going feral? I had to write an essay about parabolic and symbolic features in literature and since I have no self-preservation I made a comparison of Plague and Dead Poets Society based on main characters, motives, universal tropes and the overall concept of evil. The funnier thing is, I actually made it work and looking similar.

the concept of the folly is subjective and it has been suggested that the definition of a folly "lies in the eyes of the beholder"

“…this notion of effort. This word at first means something you strive for. But you understand at a certain point that the kind of effort you need to comprehend is different; that what is meant by effort is letting go. It is an effort because I have to struggle against what is ingrained in me about the idea of effort: I want to get something, to do something. Finally, after years of trying, I begin to understand that the nature of effort is to allow something to appear. This new meaning of effort has to do with relaxation. And it is really an effort to understand relaxation when all my training is to strive, to battle against, to chastise some aspect of myself.” ~ Paul Reynard, ‘Another Axis Within: An Interview with Paul Reynard’, Parabola (Ian Sanders)
