Why “beingly” is a great word
Of, pertaining to, or characteristic of existence or being; essential and real. From being (noun, "existence, essence") + -ly (adjectival suffix). Unlike "ontological," which fences the question within the bounds of philosophical study, or "existent," which merely acknowledges a thing's presence, beingly describes the resonant, essential quality of existence itself. It is the weight of a stone held in the hand, the slow green pulse of sap in a tree, the unadorned silence of a room before dawn—not the fact of being there, but the palpable hum of thereness made manifest.
Etymology
From being + -ly.
adj
- Of or pertaining to (one's) being or existence.
- Existing; extant.e.g.“Earlier Thomas quotes Proclus in his explanation thus: "All beingly being is infinite, not according to multitude or magnitude, but according to power alone.”
- True; real; essential; actual.e.g.“Doesn't this question point to an experience similar to that Plato must have had in obsessively asking what the essence ("ousia"), the "truth," "the true being" or "the beingly being" of things was?”
