Document Summary
Based on the process philosophy of ralph pred, the onflow" of life is the emerging frontier of existence; the leading edge of space-time (pred 2005). The understanding is that there exists an unbroken unified stream of physical and experiential becoming . For an infinitely small moment all life is brand new, physical and less-than-fully-consciously acted an experienced. It is this infinitely small moment that, as humans, we occupy and no other; a moment happening all the time and everywhere. We might know" and reason" by taking a static position in the wake of onflow, yet meanwhile we and life will always have moved on, the world never stopping as it constantly moves forward. Onflow is thus a moving edge of sorts; a moving pivot. It makes the world subject to immediate change and unlocks its unlimited creative potential. Thus, in onflow lies a great deal of human spirit.
