Talk given in Liverpool, UK, circa 1960s. 
"The word becoming means ceasing to be and coming to be other than it was. So the word becoming covers a concept of being and not being simultaneously... there’s a necessity for a resolution between the being that is, and the being that might be, and the non-being. The non-being and the being together act upon each other and produce becoming." 
"So the whole manifest universe is then a process of becoming. And because of this it means that whatever we are now, we are in process of not being. So that even the Marxist would say we are simultaneously ourselves and not ourselves." 
"The state of becoming is a transition between an eternal death and an absolute non-manifestation. And the process of unbecoming bound is becoming free." 
Referencing the 'three-part man' (head/chest/belly) and the holy trinity ('three in it', Father/Son/Holy Ghost), Eugene articulates the processes involved with individual 'becoming'.
