Some, including Goethe and Schopenhauer, say that the work of the high genius is „practically“ useless; I just finished a biography about A.N.; lol a considerable number of those highly gifted people and artists portrayed in there do not seem particularly likeable, who the fuck do they think they are?; given the scope of their intellects their personalities are stupid as hell; I guess if humanity could clearly see through how they really are (fortunately they are protected by the veil of the Maya) they would sink into self-loathing and maybe cease to reproduce; and so that is why (apart from the veil of the Maya) you need the example and the imago of the Buddha, the Christ, that is to say it is actually the omega genius ( = fully realized human potential), who mirrors life for everyone, who has the most important function of all and is the keeper of life. Mediate about that.
