CYCLE TWENTY-TWO
1. Nonconformism is
always vis-à-vis humanism, Purgatory vis-à-vis the World, not vis-à-vis
fundamentalism or transcendentalism, Hell or Heaven.
2. Idealism is, in some respects, no less
quasi-fundamentalist than fundamentalism quasi-idealist, since idealism and
fundamentalism appertain to the same diagonal axis in 'falling fire', and it is
thus possible for the one mode of doing to intimate of the other in superfeminine/subfeminine terms.
3. Naturalism is, in some respects, no less
quasi-transcendentalist than transcendentalism quasi-naturalist, since
naturalism and transcendentalism appertain to the same diagonal axis in 'rising
air', and it is thus possible for the one mode of being to intimate of the
other in submasculine/supermasculine terms.
4. Materialism is, in some respects, no less
quasi-humanist than humanism quasi-materialist, since materialism and humanism
share the same diagonal axis in 'falling water', and it is thus possible for
the one mode of giving to intimate of the other in a negative/positive feminine
manner.
5. Realism is, in some respects, no less
quasi-nonconformist than nonconformism quasi-realist,
since realism and nonconformism share the same
diagonal axis in 'rising vegetation', and it is thus possible for the one mode
of taking to intimate of the other in a negative/positive masculine manner.
6. The Devil intimates
of the warrior, and vice versa, in the 'quasiness' of
the space-time continuum.
7. The beast intimates
of God, and vice versa, in the 'quasiness' of the
time-space continuum.
8. The slut intimates of the angel (mother), and
vice versa, in the 'quasiness' of the volume-mass
continuum.
9. The sinner intimates
of the saint, and vice versa, in the 'quasiness' of
the mass-volume continuum.
10. At its best, idealism
is quasi-fundamentalist, in contrast to fundamentalism being quasi-idealist at
its worst.
11. At its best,
naturalism is quasi-transcendentalist, in contrast to transcendentalism being
quasi-naturalist at its worst.
12. At its best,
materialism is quasi-humanist, in contrast to humanism being quasi-materialist
at its worst.
13. At its best, realism
is quasi-nonconformist, in contrast to nonconformism
being quasi-realist at its worst.
14. The quasi-fundamentalism,
quasi-transcendentalism, quasi-humanism, and quasi-nonconformism
of (respectively) idealism, naturalism, materialism, and realism ... still
falls short of genuine sensibility, and
hence of salvation from evil to good.
Conversely, the quasi-idealism, quasi-naturalism, quasi-materialism, and
quasi-realism of (respectively) fundamentalism, transcendenta-lism,
humanism, and nonconformism ... still falls short of
sensual falsehood, and hence of damnation from good to evil.
15. It could be argued that Jehovah is, in some
degree, the quasi-transcendentalist aspect of Judaic naturalism, rooted in Satan,
but even if He were such, He would still fall short of genuine
transcendentalism in the sensibility of supreme being, viz. the Holy Spirit of
Heaven. However, much as the meditative
aspect of Judaism lends itself to a quasi-transcendentalist interpretation
within the overall confines of Judaic naturalism, the concept of Jehovah is
still tied to the Biblical notion of 'Creator of the Universe', and thus fails
to tally with anything quasi-transcendentalist.
On the contrary, such a notion is effectively idealist, having more to
do with primal doing than with any mode of being, whether primal or
supreme. And idealism, as we have seen,
owes more to the Devil ... of Clear-Light primacy ... than ever it does to the
'God' of Clear-Fire primacy, viz. the Satanic beast, whose solar correlation
excludes a stellar dimension.
16. To fall from the
stellar plane of Clear-Light primacy to the solar plane of Clear-Fire primacy,
as from superfeminine to submasculine,
the Devil (Jehovah) to God (Satan), is to revolt against the metachemical objectivity of spatial Space from the
standpoint of the chemical subjectivity of sequential Time. It is to begin a process destined to be
repeated on a number of succeeding levels, including the rise, in both Catholic
and Protestant contexts, of nonconformism at
humanism's expense, a process in which the subjective achieves independence of
an objective precondition, to the greater glory of masculine/godly progress.
