Description

Ut seeks immanentist poems. An immanentist poem fuses the self, the thing, and the world into a new, unique, and substantial reality. The fusion begins with bare attention and ends in an alteration of the consciousness. The alteration overcomes the illusions of conceptualism and the public non-reality of Western rational orientation and allows emancipation from the profane and rebirth to a sacred mode of being.
Immanentist poetry is brother to Surrealism, Jung's Sychronicity, Assagioli's Psychosynthesis, Maslow's Peak Experience and B-Cognition, R.D. Laing's Transcendental Experience, Masters and Houston's Mind Games, the Ecology Consciousness, the Zen Zoan, Tao, Yoga, Tantric Tibetan Buddhism's exorcism of abhutaparikalpa, Agehananda Bharati's view of Mantra communication, Castaneda's non-ordinary reality, Smohalla, Mircea Eliade's Sacred, Shamanism, etc.
