Contingency and Necessity of Temporal Being

Abstract

The principal problem of this essay : What is the causa principalis of esse actualerei singularis (individualis)?
(1) Esse actuale is duratio, sive indefinita existendi continuatio. Although it can_ be defined with any temporal terminus a quo and ad quem, it can't be confused with acternitas. Permanence (durable duration), aevum and sempiternity are only modes of duration, but don't belong to the eternity itself. (2) Res singularis is integral individual. When it is some composite one, it has to have an integral innerpower. (3) And every integral individual is a corresponding part of the Infinite, their principal cause. The Infinite and its integral parts belong altogether to the coordinates of aeternitas. (4) The Infinite, the principal cause is companied by some concomitant causes, external and internal causes. They are only sine-qua-non to the principal cause, but supported by the latter. (5) In the co-ordinates of eternity, we can recognize the infinite thickness of the temporal duration, for the Infinite is enough open to support the infinitely various rhythm of the whole duration.
Conclusion : The ontological point of view of this essay is the positive philosophy or the philosophical (metaphysical) empiricism. Its most important points are (i) the integral nature of individual and (ii) the Infinite as the principal cause of every individual. These points make the positive philosophy to agree with the actual and infinite progression of the temporal duration.
