Fall in Time

"Others fall into time; I have fallen from time. The eternity that rises above time is replaced by the other eternity below it; in that barren zone, only one desire is felt anymore: to become one with time again, to rise to it at all costs, to get away from it for the illusion of a settled home." "But time is closed, but time is inaccessible: this negative eternity, this bad eternity, consists of the impossibility of penetrating time."

Cioran continues to curse people, humanity, and being human. He goes back to the beginning, because according to him, the mistake belongs to the beginning: Man ate the fruit of the wrong tree, the tree of knowledge instead of the tree of life. This was the step that initiated the fall from eternity to time, that is, the beginning of History.

Cioran, who is part of a philosophical tradition whose roots go back a long way, belittles human existence and is critical of all "successes" and "progress". He attempts to criticize civilization, but his aim is not just to reveal the truth of civilization or modernity; His main concern is human error. He works mercilessly on her soft belly, pointing out her flaws on her face.

Cioran stands right next to us, perhaps in front of us, to remind us of the possibility of thinking differently.
