TIME REVERSAL is the measure of change……………………………………………………….because change is the measure of TIME REVERSAL
As I reported in Part I of this report, since the primary function of Plato’s Phaedrus is to solve the paradox of the unity of opposites in opportune time (kairios), Part II demonstrates how the epistemological pathway of truth (aletheia) that Plato constructed for that purpose inevitably requires the development of the beautiful soul.
THE PERFORMATIVE TIMELINESS OF PLATO’S PHAEDRUS PART II
We have entered into a period similar to the end of the Middle Ages in which the European population had gone into an uncontrolled frenzy over death because of the total insecurity of the world caused by oligarchism. In the past, people who indulged in such a cult of death did it because they were uncertain about their immortality.
The cult of death dominated all and everything because people were afraid of the future. This was a period of madness because people were afraid to change. So, the new trend was to celebrate madness and dying.
No thank you, that’s not for me; I am not going to dance on your graves. I invite you to a Renaissance because I prefer to sing and dance to your future.
The Dance of Death (1493) by Michael Wolgemut, from the Liber chronicarum by Hartmann Schedel.
How do you deal with a world that is both Divine and Satanic, hopeful and degenerate, truthful and lying at the same time? This is the question that Socrates grappled with in Plato’s Phaedrus dialogue.
The answer that Plato gave has generally been misunderstood, because most historians thought this was a rhetorical question. This report is an attempt to correct that mistake and show that the issue is an axiomatic matter of solving the paradox of the unity of the opposites in time.

“On January 8, 1989 the German branch of the Fusion Energy Foundation held one of a series of seminars, devoted to the geometrical method in physics and biology. Present at the seminar was Lyndon H. LaRouche, who recently initiated an exciting new line of investigation in this field. LaRouche’s recent work centered on the hypothesis, that the so-called “strong forces” of nuclear physics derive from a negative curvature characteristic in the geometry of physical space-time.”
