By Schubert Ogden
The Notebooks of Schubert Ogden
"[T]he basic participial adjective," or "predicate," modifying "becoming" or "process" is "self-relating, all-integrating" ("Martin Buber's Metaphysics": 60). But, then, the correspondingly basic adverb can only refer to how such self-relating, all-integrating becoming or process takes place, allowing for the necessary distinction between ordinary, nondivine and extraordinary, divine becoming or process.
Nondivine becoming or process takes place "nonideally," "noneminently," "nontranscendently," "nonsupremely, " "fragmentarily," "surpassably," "inadequately," whereas divine becoming or process takes place "ideally," "eminently," "transcendently," "supremely," "integrally (or nonfragmentarily)," "unsurpassably," "adequately."
