Aioue - A Minimalist's Mainframe
Aioue (pronounced A-wah, with no emphasis on either syllable) is a way of seeing and living in the reality of the Source of all things. The word comes from the notion that it is made up entirely of vowels, which create the least amount of conscious intervention in the breath. Breath is a variation on a theme. For anything that grows it is the very definition of consciousness on any level. It is the eternal and the temporal residing in a one syllable word. Breath = Aioua
Life is re-animated when Aioua’s name enters again into you. It is spoken with every rhythmic cycle of breathing and returns to its source when you or anything that possesses it can no longer speak it. All sentient things are eternally uttering the reality of that which it borrows its life from. Consciously take your next breath and hear the word come into and out of your lungs, yet consciousness or intelligence is not required of you to live in its truth.
Neither does one need an exhaustive volume of systematic theology to live in its light. Indeed, there is more than enough in this simple drop of nectar to keep any planet fully occupied for as long as it exists. The more we add well-meaning but short sighted philosophical meat to it in order to understand it, the more rancid, sectarian and destructive it becomes, a product of a world more focused on amassing knowledge than on pure understanding.
Aioue speaks.“Use this understanding to live in peace with each other, but stay away from the planet of Europa”. What’s on Europa, you ask?… my point exactly. Dump your questions and don’t build a sub-culture in it’s name. Each time you come around, just live and breathe and die in it. Plenty of questions remain in the known universe to whet your curiosity. Start by learning to see the difference. Too many think they know better and have attempted to land there looking for answers that are not to be had, and too many innocent people have suffered as a result.
This understanding has been inside us since before the first religion was erected.
