Or, we are here to just eat, and then meditate, because eating fuels us, and that's all we need. We don't need to do anything else, procreate yes, but use our minds to go places that exist far beyond. This level or consciousness is too simple.

CLAUDE OPUS: So for Bergson, you could almost say: to be conscious is to be an artist. Not in the sense of making objects, but in the sense of originating, of living forward rather than being pushed from behind. The mechanical is what can be run backward. The creative is what can’t. And consciousness is precisely that irreversibility.
Existence is the goal in and off it self. Not how much you can be pushed to create. In the era of AI, humans will have no justification (right to exist) as they can not produce. That's the logic that follows of your statement.
This is a good one. Kind of breaks my brain. Immediate thought is to go out and create more. Could the quote be a double meaning? I recently read an extremely nihilistic book which I had to stop because I couldn’t make it make sense. It was The Conspiracy Against The Human Race by Thomas Ligotti. The idea is existence is worse than not existing. I just couldn’t even fathom the idea. I think that’s the antithesis of this quote. Not destruction, but anti-creation, which is not in human nature. Rambling after some wine.

Brancusi used to say that art is a form of justice. I think he meant that whatever transcends the existing structure will inevitable anchor a new timeline which has the potential to replace a corrupted one.

Nope. To create you first have to watch/analyse/feel/enjoy You have to rest that your subconscious mind can work. Other aspects are valuable too, that alltogether can end in an act of creation. And if you should create sth. bad/evil it’s perhaps better not to create.
this is (still) hitting me like a koan. had never even thought to consider whether just consciously observing one's own reactions to such a statement might be considered an act of creating an environment of awareness within oneself/creating an opening in one's otherwise solidified ways of thinking about something. *grateful for you and the observer effect* ty 🙏
"According to the Fathers, our first glimpse into understanding what hesychasm is can be found in the book of Genesis, where it is said that the Spirit of God 'hovered over the face of the waters.' Regarding this image in Genesis, Elder Zacharias has this to say: "The whole work of mental prayer is infinitely creative. Before the beginning of the world, the Spirit of God was hovering over the abyss, and at a given moment, there was an explosion from which all creation was hatched.' Our God is the Creator God, the God through whom everything that is, is. So we see that before we discover what God created, it is revealed how God creates. This image of God hovering over the water is one of dynamic stillness and divine solitude. What God creates is wondrous and how He creates is in and through hesychasm."
