Calenture
Calenture: From Spanish: calentura; calenture heat,
fever, from calentar: to heat, from Latin: calent, calens, calere to be warm. To see as in the delirium of one affected with calenture.
(Example) Wordsworth: ‘Hath fed on pageants floating through the air. Or calentures in depths of limpid flood’. Calenture is a name
formerly given to various fevers occurring in tropics; especially to a form of furious delirium accompanied by fever, among sailors, which
sometimes led the affected person to imagine the sea to be a green field, and to throw himself into it. Synonyms: passion, ardour, fervour,
fire, feverishness, exalt, craze, zeal, rapture, ecstasy). Oxford Dictionary
Peter: The root cause of human malice and sorrow are the instinctual
passions. To tackle half of the problem by eliminating only the ego just leads to a soul cut loose from any common sense whatsoever, so much
so, that the world is increasingly full of people who insist that they are God-on-earth.
All evidence of the Enlightened state is that fear and aggression are sublimated
but not eliminated and nurture and desire are given full, uninhibited reign such that people feel Divine Love and even God-realized.
There is no ‘Divine Realm’ other than ‘man’s version’ (except
woman’s version). All divinity is a product of feverish human imagination. There is a very good word for this globally occurring apparition:
calenture.
Richard: The word ‘calenture’ is an incredibly useful word as it
describes the delirious passion needed to manifest the delusion that:
-
There is a God ... and:
-
I am that God.
