The philosophy that I develope - Truth and Desire

During my life I realize more and more that the desire for systematicity shapes my knowledge. Thank God, Spinoza has brought me to these insights.

Short note on Spinoza:
Spinoza points out that the idea of reason is guiding all our understanding. But it does not guide our idea in terms of causes, but in terms of their real cause. I associate real causes with reason.

Truth and Desire
In other words, it is all a question of what we desire to be true and this is structuring the systematicity of our knowledge. If there were no desire for knowledge, there would be no endeauvors into figuring out anything.

However, the desire for knowledge is not freefloating, but structured in itself with regard to its goal, namely to be true desire. True desire is repelled by mediocre truths that shift their status in history. However, true desire does not know whether true knowledge can be achieved, therefore it only guides our systematizing.

Structures of Desires
Desire wants itself, so it is a desire for an eternity that might not exist. Nevertheless the idea of an infinite self that posseses truth is more than only a fiction. It is the truth of a desire. If I am desire this seems to be the ground for all that there is. So all comes down to the question of how infinity is possible at all, even though this infinity might not exist.

So I will order all philosophies with regard to the project of truth and desire.

Different from Heidegger this does not lay out "Time" as the horizon of Being, but the being of true desire, is what is structuring our temporality.

More fragments have to be integrated is the notion of the world and holism.
