The Rigid Rotation of Fa Poonvoralak
By Fa Poonvoralak
Upon deep reflection, this collection of essays reveals the profound logic and singular world-view of Fa Poonvoralak with absolute clarity. It is, without question, one of the most pivotal works in his career. The value and significance of this text have remained a persistent challenge to the act of "reading" and to the "reader" since its very inception.
To say it simply: a "rotation" in this era is a rotation that is both fiercely rigid and utterly breathtaking.

Selected Excerpts
On the Illusory Present
"No one truly sees the 'present.' Because light requires time to travel—no matter how instantaneous it may seem—the sun we see is an image from eight minutes ago. Every image surrounding us is merely the past. Regardless of how close it clings to the now, it is never the true present."
— From 'Present'
On the Nature of Awareness
"A dream that realizes it is a dream is no longer a dream. A reality that realizes it is reality is no longer reality."
— From 'Operation One'
