CYCLE SIXTY-TWO

 

1.   When genuine, the artist is a creature of the Clear Light of Space, the musician a creature of the Holy Spirit of Heaven.

 

2.   When genuine, the dancer is a creature of the Clear Heat of Time, the poet a creature of the Holy Soul of Hell.

 

3.   When genuine, the potter is a creature of the Clear Coldness of Volume, the writer a creature of the Holy Mind of Purgatory.

 

4.   When genuine, the actor is a creature of the Clear Darkness of Mass, the sculptor a creature of the Holy Will of the World.

 

5.   The objectivity of men is generally premised upon the penis, the subjectivity of women upon the vagina.

 

6.   God is the conscience of the Devil, and woman the conscience of man.

 

7.   Regarded generically, man, or mankind, is of the mundane World, and hence nature, so that we can speak of the naturalism of man, in contrast to the antinaturalism of antiman, whose throne is in the purgatorial Overworld.  However, contrasted with the antinaturalism of antiman is the super-antinaturalism of super-antiman, who appertains to the diabolic Behind, and at the back of super-antiman is the divine Behind of supra-antiman, whose supra-antinaturalism corresponds to the Clear Light of Space.  Such a Clear Light is, of course, at the opposite extreme to the Holy Spirit of Heaven, which is the omega goal of evolutionary striving, and if we now proceed beyond man, rather than against or behind him, we shall find that the supernature of superman transcends the World, and hence nature, to stand as the next best, or last, thing to the supra-nature of supra-man ... in the divine Beyond of universal self.
