Meaning or not to be mean,...
My first plan of reaction to this question was : Ushi was a girlfriend of me who hurted me a lot,....(wich is true in fact)
But serious now:
The intension for my using of an alias is just that I can express some more with it then 'it' just merely being a name, altough I tend to agree in the first place that a name is 'just' a name (that's maby because I don't want any trouble), what's in a name after all? And who's to blame?
But in a name is what you put into it,....and also what you get out of it. So there is more? Yes:
I for instance have grown up with a quite unique name,...with far reaching consequenses. For instance: it's originality putted me into the position of 'outsider' vérry early in life, wich is not always positive,...the black goat in the hurdle, the 'ugly duck' , alone on the world, ect ect,....especially when you have to grow up with this 'given' concequence and at the same time have to devellop a goop empahty and a good social awareness. It made me wonder in the first place why I was considered to be so unique? And to be so 'appart' from others? Did others consider themselves not to be unique as they certainly expressed in group-like conciousness towards me? Or did everybody project these feelings towards everybody? I certainly learned quickly that we where all quite unique in our manifestations and tought, (altough we do not genetically differ, each of us has just his own unique way of correlating to them: the genes; our fore-fathers and mothers, in wich also lie the reasons for our existance(ses) and motion(s) and the inheritance of (at least a part of it), our mentality('s), behaviour and many more things) But al this doen't mean we don't have to learn to agree and to co-exist with each other,... problems of these proportions do tend to emerge quite soon if we mingle together different and apparently paradoxic vieuws wich we project and reflect upon 'everything' all the time (so this means the 'others' as well, wich answered my retoric question) .
I have only disscovered/uncovered and revealed these mysteries after years of life,...the mere synergy of it all wich I experienced, the symbolic impact it implied to me, the revelations I got out of it all, has placed me now in a 'special' position in regarding all of human communications toughts and in this matter : nomenclature.
I use several aliases on the internet, Fukushi is just one of them,...it came into existance in the following manner: I was one day creating an e-mail account and I already used my other aliases for other accounts and the most usual names that I could come up with were already in use,.....since I don't favor names like "BLABLA nr.265487516", I started to think for an original name, or should I rather say: 'to feel',....I'll explain: I always (troughout my entire life) trusted my feelings and made decisions upon it,...So again I decided to reach for the mental 'alfa-state' to come up with something,...
btw: just recentely it came to my ears that the impressions we 'dig' trough, to reach an understanding of something, and the actual bits per second in wich it is proccesed (by means of 'human concious understanding') is verry different from eachother:
-11.000 bits/sec = bit rate of unconcious 'tought/feelings/refections upon the self ' and a merely :
-50 bits/sec= concious 'tought/ratio' bit rate
The goal of this explanation is to deliver an understanding of how I come up with most of my toughts and in this case the question relates to the creation of my alias (and I guess I'm not the only one who uses this proces in a more then 'normal' consious manner). So whatever issue or problem of math or sience of vision or feeling we have/get, that in comparasion with eachother you can better understand it if you rely and trust (not only, but more) in those 'premonishing' feelings. I have developed this understanding trough training, troughout all my life,...(because I was verry open/naïve in the beginning, and now less, but still,... I guess I became more selective)
There is a drawback however: the more feelings that you have, the more cluttered is your rational tought-proces, wich makes you in turn vunerable to instable tough proceses= order,...in wich you then have to derive chaos, in order to cope with the projections of the 'ratio' or 'status quo' or 'main stream' that all the others have, who also in turn have 'their' precious idear(s) of 'reality' (that's what persona say when they do not concur with this or that sientifically fact of though-proces or (sometimes rewritten) history wich 'makes up' reality, but again: in reality they are just co-existant, and they do not always exclude nor conclude eachother, the're merely on there turn a part of this spectrum what we reasamble as reality and the 'visible' spectrum of toughts).
So luckely I do not have to invent the fire all the time and therefore I somtimes eagerly use (or should I say: associate, wich in turn is a normal proces of the brain) some 'existing' nomenclature and ways of thinking, to cope with the ways of this world, with it's people their history and culture, wich leaded them to this time,...and I combined them to what for my 'feelings' sounded nice & coherent,....: so Fukushi , came intuïtively in existance as a matter of fact but that does not necceseraly mean that it's not coherent with me or the other facts of my life,...since I was searching for a name that was applicable to me (that also implies my real-name and my personality) and at the same time appealing.
My alias as Fukushi is Japanese, now why japanese? Because it happens to be that I'm fasinated with Japanese ways of thinking, especially : Do and Budo.
It exists out of tree parts, wich have on there turn many different meanings, but to concur to each of it separately:
-Fu- the first part, is the element AIR, it is usually depicted as a DEMI-cirkle with connected ends.
-Ku-the second part is the VOID, it's the existence without 'noumenon'. In Boudhistic terms also the 'invinsible' a concept with the same meaning as the : 'devine grace' or the 'virtue of god' : all existance eminates in this "cosmos" but when you try to conciously understand this, then you separate yourself from it's understanding/existance wich in turn, stands for itself, (the hand not being able to grap itself, but just being at itself). also note herefor that : air is not to be considered as 'empty' or 'void' and that it's quite different from eachother but they co-exist and are interconnected (like all things in life) and 'make up' my name/personality,...or in this case my alias.
-Shi- means : litarally: the WARRIOR, wich is kinda funny really, because my real firstname also means warrior, (now here's one of the things that I found out later, I did not know this conciously when I came up with Fukushi, it was within my sub-conciousness and not even in a constructed sense),
So that's why Fukushi is me and I am Fukushi,...
