Spontaneous Uncontrollable Unpredictable (3)
“Fire”
There are many quotes regarding the phenomenon that life goes on. Knowledge informs man and woman that life goes on every moment. Wisdom reveals that a moment is always present in life.
Wisdom reveals that a moment renews itself eternally. Wisdom, therefore, signifies that the moment in life is eternal. Wisdom also reveals that a moment in life can neither be after or before a moment in life.
Wisdom reveals that in knowledge there is a moment before and after a moment.
Wisdom reveals that this is impossible and that the knowledge of a moment before and after in the mind does not exist as an actuality.
Wisdom reveals that a moment before and after a moment in the mind is an illusory thought in a moment. Wisdom reveals that heat, meaning fire, is present in every moment in life, because heat, meaning temperature, is present in every human in life.
Wisdom reveals that the presence of moment in life is spontaneous, uncontrollable and unpredictable. Wisdom reveals that heat is present in every moment, because humans are dependent on temperature, meaning heat, to live life. This signifies that the presence of fire, meaning heat, in every moment in life is spontaneous, uncontrollable and unpredictable.
Heat, meaning fire, not only makes every human cell function, it also enables bacteria in the human and animal body to survive. The bacteria that need heat to survive are essential for man’s survival as bacteria utilise the dissolved food to provide man much needed vitamins and other essential products, which enable humans and animals to survive.
Heat, meaning fire, is also involved in the many physiological functions within every human cell. Lack of heat in the moment means that cellular functions within every cell, which are essential for human survival, would not be possible.
This signifies that heat, meaning fire, is in every moment in life because life is in every moment in life. This further signifies that heat, meaning fire, makes life go on spontaneously, uncontrollably, and unpredictably.
The enlightened have rightly proclaimed that life goes on spontaneously, uncontrollably and unpredictably and that before and after in life is albeit illusory.

Editor’s Note:
In Greek mythology the Titan Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to humanity in order to better their lives. He was severely punished for this by Zeus, who did not wish to share it with humans. The enlightened, however, reveal in this article that fire cannot be given or taken for fire is in every moment in life, that is.
