John Dunn original writing

A reflection upon the word logos on Dr John Dunn.

Given an opportunity

God as Love restores to man the freedom which he has lost, the freedom to take possession of his own authenticity.169 We may question the validity of the Word, but in doing so it is we who are questioned. Remember, shunning idolatry means that God, the Word, Logos, Truth are not to be considered as a pre-existent entities. In questioning the validity, we are confronting ourselves, now and at each moment, in a way that is analogous to Jesus’ confrontation with the Jews who chose to reject him. Forget the idolatry of churchy religionism; we are each given an opportunity of understanding ourselves through the analogy which is the death and resurrection of Jesus. Death and resurrection mark the end of ordinary reality and reunion with the Divine.

Evola - formless to formed Evola - formless to formed
Transmutation – stated Evola – must always proceed from ‘formless universality’ to ‘formed individuality’ and not the other way around.
John Dunn

Just a thought: Literalism became the hallmark of the new Church’s theology and teaching. There was no place for metaphor as a medium for the ineffable in a religion that demanded literal acceptance of the events in the scriptures. John Dunn (Renaissance: Counter-Renaissance)

“Seeking out historical places of interest has given me wonderful motorcycling opportunities over the years… roads and little lanes, through a variety of landscapes that bear the scars, marks and imprints of those that have trodden, worked and fought on the land before us.”

“Any excursion, whether it be by motorcycle, car, bicycle or on foot, is always better for having an object, or goal in mind. I could take no pleasure in riding around just for the sake of it. There has to be a mission.”

“I ride my motorcycle to seek out things ancient, quirky and monumental, taking in the views, and ‘reading’ the landscape,its geology and history, as I do so.”
