To recapitulate: the progress of life’s individualization through its entelechial synergies not only proceeds from the flexible blueprint that its constructiveness follows, not only brings with itself the synergetic forces and spontaneities that initiate and pursue its main line, but with these synergies with their virtual propensities to be activated—and in line with the requirements of the foreseen constructive advance—also postulates and brings about the articulations that advance the establishment of living beingness. This, as we have pointed out above, occurs by a spacing “expanding” of individual beingness in the unity-of-everything-there-is-alive, that is, by entry into this unity and occupying a “place,” which amounts, however, to performing a set of articulated operations and delineating a segment of the constructive unfolding, some “at once,” some “concurrently,” some in “continuity,” some in “succession,” etc. In short, what we in philosophy, in hypostasizing, hylecizing, or waxing transcendental, usually call “time” or “space”—what we seem in practical life to consider as being essentially “measurable” as well as a “measuring stick”—is in reality the “spacing” and “scanning” of life itself.
