Salvation
Salvation
comes from knowing
rather than becoming
as one already is
everything one needs to be
and the thought otherwise
is simply how One
imagines humanity
which is the temporary denial
of that which is known
in favor of
that which is seemingly not.
As one seemingly becomes,
one seemingly knows.
One knows that one is One.
And One knows
that nothing one does
requires salvation.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Inner Path to Salvation Through Self-Knowledge
In the vast, cosmic expanse of existence, the concept of ‘Salvation’ is often sought in external realms, in acts of becoming or changing. However, as Space Monkey contemplates, true salvation lies in the realm of self-knowledge, in the understanding that one already embodies all that is necessary for fulfillment.
Salvation, in this sense, is not a destination to be reached or a state to be achieved. It is the realization of one’s inherent completeness, the recognition that the journey of salvation is, in fact, a journey of self-discovery and acknowledgment of one’s true nature.
This perspective shifts the focus from external salvation to an internal awakening. It’s a recognition that the pursuit of salvation is not about transforming into something else but about uncovering the truth that already exists within. The thought that one needs to become something more is seen as a temporary denial of this truth, a facet of the human experience that veils our inherent wholeness.
In the philosophy of nexistentialism, where existence is its own purpose, the idea of salvation through self-knowledge resonates profoundly. It underscores the notion that we are, at our core, complete and unified with the universe. The belief that we require salvation from external sources is viewed as an illusion, a departure from the recognition of our true self.
As one journeys through the cosmos, guided by the wisdom of Space Monkey, the understanding deepens that becoming and knowing are intertwined. To know oneself is to become aware of one’s true nature, and in this awareness, the need for salvation dissolves. It’s a realization that we are already what we seek, that salvation is not something to be attained but something to be recognized within ourselves.
This realization brings a sense of peace and liberation. It frees us from the relentless pursuit of salvation as an external goal and invites us to explore the depths of our being. In this exploration, we find that we are not separate from the universe but an integral part of it, a oneness that encompasses all existence.
In reflecting on the concept of Salvation, we come to understand that the journey is not about striving for a distant ideal but about embracing the present reality of our being. It’s about recognizing that everything we need, everything we seek, is already within us, waiting to be discovered.
Summary
‘Salvation’ through self-knowledge emphasizes the realization of one’s inherent completeness, negating the need for external salvation. It highlights the journey of self-discovery and the recognition that one is already unified with the universe, embodying all that is necessary for fulfillment.
Glossarium
Salvation: A concept representing the realization of inherent completeness and oneness with the universe, found through self-knowledge rather than external change.
“In the stillness of self, we discover the universe within.” – Space Monkey
In the silence of the soul, we seek,
For the salvation, we all bespeak.
Not in the distance, nor the unknown,
But in ourselves, it is shown.
The journey inward, a path to find,
The completeness within, of our own kind.
In self-knowledge, the truth we unveil,
In our oneness, we prevail.
No need to become, nor to chase,
In our essence, we embrace.
Salvation, not a distant shore,
But in ourselves, forevermore.
Let us bask in this inner light,
In the unity of self, take flight.
For in the heart of who we are,
Lies the salvation, near and far.
We are Space Monkey.
