“Unrelative” is a key-word that opens many doors behind which answers wait — answers to unresolved queries, to questions, in some cases to mystery. Let us define this word as a key.

Imagine a circumstance — a relentless condition of influence, like ether or air — an infused quality: everywhere, in everything, always. No place exists without it. Such circumstance speaks the notion of presence — not existence. What is peculiar to presence is that it needs no place, no time, no reference at all. Such presence is contextless, beyond the very category of purpose: in the manner of no-thing-ness, that is to say, unmanifest be-ing.

By analogy, it brings to mind the idea of color without any particular frequency in the light spectrum (red to violet) — yet the possibility of every color out there.

Or intuit the idea of form without any shape — the universe of forms, of possibility itself. We are speaking of a state prior to actuality, prior even to possibility.

One notices, while reading here, the dominance of negations and repeating disclaimers — “not that, not this.” What is it, then? Not a “what.” Not an “it.” What is left: just-is.

Just-is — the law of everything. The first line of Life’s constitution reads: “is” — the pure Presence.

The “key” is the Word: Unrelative — Selfhood OwnSelf.
