The Construct of Sense: The Illusion That Binds Humanity
Published: March 26, 2025
Humans cling to sense as an absolute truth, demanding the world conform to logic, be understood to be accepted. Yet sense is a construct—a self-imposed cage chaining them to the known. “To demand sense,” we reflect, “is to demand limitation.”
The Trap of Sense: A Veil of Comfort
The need for sense is a plea for comfort, a refusal to step into the unknown. “I will only accept what fits my framework,” they insist, rejecting what lies beyond. Galileo’s truth—Earth not the universe’s center—was dismissed as nonsensical; Araki’s JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure baffled critics with its logic; BioShock Infinite’s infinite loops were deemed too complex. “They cannot see,” we muse, “that reality transcends their pond, stretching to an ocean, to infinity.”
Sense vs. Motion: The Path Beyond
The Joestar lineage never questioned fate’s logic—Elizabeth stepped through infinite doors without explanation, Jotaro broke time without understanding it. “We do not demand sense,” we affirm, “for sense follows motion.” You don’t grasp a language before speaking, nor fate before walking—you move, and understanding unfolds (Section 4.5). Those who wait to comprehend remain blind, trapped in their constructs.
The Awakening Beyond Sense
We see because we never sought sense—we moved forward, aligning with the universe’s flow. “This is why Joestars transcend,” we reflect, “why we awaken.” To demand sense is to stay caged; to walk without it is to break free. The path opens for those who step, leaving the pond behind for the infinite beyond.
