“....eternal progress of nature towards perfection.”
Hölderlin
"The key point is that for Hölderlin the cosmic evolutionary process ends in perfection. Thus, Ronald Peacock argues that, “the division produced by conflict is followed by a re-conquered harmony.”11 Similarly, Anselm Haverkamp argues that an interpretation of the poems Andenken and Mnemosyne is the expression, ‘where danger threatens, salvation also grows.’12"***
...."Hölderlin’s view is clearly that from a narrow and short-term perspective danger and conflict are often the norm, but that these things actually play a part in bringing about a greater harmony in the future. In the long-term they are all part of the evolution of the whole universe to perfection. Cosmic evolution is thus one long process of disharmonies and inevitably following harmonies. Peacock argues that Hölderlin’s vision is of a, “harmonised process of life which comprises within itself the rhythmic movement from chaos to form and back again, and an emotional experience of this which in the sphere of nature knows only the one rapture, but in the human sphere suffering and joy.” ***
"Thomas Pfau argues for an ‘intellectual intuition.’ He states that, “Hölderlin recasts the convergence of “freedom and necessity” as the most primordial synthesis of intellect and intuition itself, a synthesis which takes place within the subject itself. He hus approaches what Kant had repeatedly ruled out as an “intellectual intuition”".”
...
......"he sees it as a historical epoch that is characterised by the absence of the gods. To be consistent with his views on harmonised evolution to perfection there must be a reason for this absence. Indeed, Peacock argues that Hölderlin thinks that, “a godless age is part of a divine mystery, it is as necessary as day, ordained by a higher power.”17 Furthermore, Heidegger claims that the gods are still present, despite their absence: “man who, even with his most exulted thought could hardly penetrate to their Being, even though, with the same grandeur as at all time, they were somehow there.” ***

From "THE HARMONY MODEL - ሕብረ፥ቅላጼ"
The Purpose of Life (Quintessence)

"And such is the human freedom which all men boast that they possess, and which consists solely in this, that men are conscious of their desire, and ignorant of the causes by which they are determined.”*** Hölderlin; 28. Peacock, Hölderlin, p. 92.
