CYCLE THIRTY-ONE: EMBLEMATIC SUGGESTIONS
1. The ideological philosophy of Social
Transcendentalism would not be complete without reference to an emblem to which
it subscribes, and this emblem will take the form of what, in a variety of
earlier texts, I have customarily termed a 'supercross',
meaning an inverted version of the CND emblem, in which the two short bands
that diagonally stem from the long vertical band - symbolical for me of the
existential/experiential Son in relation to both the experimental Father and
the emanational Holy Ghost - will be at the top
rather than at the bottom of the design in question, and all, needless to say,
within the circumscribed bounds of an encapsulating circle of equivalent width.
2. From the righthand-most
band of this 'supercross', the band of the Holy
Ghost, will stem the 'masculine sign', viz. an arrowed pointer on an extended
arm of equivalent width, suggestive of the 'right on' of things towards the
triadic Beyond and definitive Heaven, and to complement it at the foot of the
vertical band the 'feminine sign' of an equilateral cross will project
downwards, thereby confirming the conjunction of the female element with that
of the male one in the Superchristian framework of
the triadic Beyond.
3. Colour-wise, the emblem thus constituted will
be in purple on a sky-blue ground, suggestive of the spiritual, and there will
also be space in between the bands at the top of the 'supercross'
for the letters S.T., standing for Social Transcendentalism, or their Gaelic
equivalents.
4. Moreover, I see no reason, if the respective
components of my envisaged Centrist Federation desire it, why there should not
be mini-versions of their current flags to either side, lower down, of the
vertical band, so that people would know where they came from in the event of
opting for the supra-national transcendence of their respective Gaelic
traditions.
5. Hence rather than the Irish tricolour and the
Union Jack (for Britain in toto would not be eligible
for 'Kingdom Come', England having a separate emblem in the cross of St.
George), the Irish tricolour, say, and the cross of St. David, the cross of St.
Andrew, and the Welsh Dragon ... could well be the principal emblems to qualify
for inclusion within the overall emblem of Social Transcendentalism, the emblem
of a Centrist federation of, hopefully, Ireland (both North and South),
Scotland, and Wales, with the possibility of the Isle of Man and one or two
other places coming into the overall framework in due course.
6. Now such a preponderantly religious emblem
should not just exist on a rectilinear flag but also, and more importantly, on
a curvilinear plaque, suggestive of the transcendence of political nationalism
in the cultural supra-nationalism of the Gaelic federation, which would be
politically rooted in a pseudo-Kingdom, with its executive presidency, and
religiously centred in the very genuine Centre of the triadic Beyond, as
pertaining to the context of a religiously sovereign People.
7. Possibly a distinction between the
'ideological' and the 'philosophical' form of this emblem would have to exist,
with the likelihood of a flag-like format, embracing, as suggested above,
mini-versions of the respective countries of the federation on the one hand,
and a purely abstract manifestation of the overall emblem on the other hand, the
latter of which would have its residence on a curvilinear plaque, thereby doing
proper justice to the Centre, or overall context of the triadic Beyond.
8. Now the pseudo-Kingdom and the genuine Centre
of 'Kingdom Come' would effectively be the reverse of the genuine Kingdom and
pseudo-Centre (Established Church with monarchic figurehead) of the United
Kingdom, and would need to be distinguished, one from the other, on the basis
of a sort of administrative/cultural dichotomy between that which was of the pseudo-Kingdom
(and beyond the State) and that which was of the Centre (and beyond the
Church).
9. For in the pseudo-Kingdom and Centre of
'Kingdom Come', both the traditional manifestations of the State and the Church
would be transcended, as things pass from the phenomenal realm of the world to
the noumenal realm of the Other World, the cultural
New Order in which the triadic Beyond should find itself being served, pending
a majority mandate for Social Transcendentalism, from the administrative base
of the pseudo-Kingdom, as pertaining to the reign of the Superchristian
'philosopher-king' and 'messianic redeemer' whose political headship of the
pseudo-Kingdom will necessitate that he be regarded as religious figurehead of
the Centre, and thus of the triadic Beyond to which the Supercross
more purely pertains.
