1. The
power, or force, of the will in relation, primarily, to appearances; the
glory, or motion, of the spirit in relation, primarily, to quantities;
the form, or heat, of the ego in relation, primarily, to qualities; the
contentment, or light, of the soul in relation, primarily, to essences.
2. Therein
lie the fourfold principles of life as they divide between not-self and self,
soma and psyche, on the basis of power and glory, force and motion, in the one,
and form and contentment, heat and light, in the other - life a struggle, as it
were, between force and motion, will and spirit, in relation to female criteria
primarily, and between heat and light, ego and soul, in relation to male
criteria primarily, neither of which can abide the other, least of all in
regard to what pertains, on a similar class basis, to the opposite side of the
gender fence, the soul from the standpoint of the will or vice versa, the ego
from the standpoint of the spirit or vice versa, since the one can only prevail
at the other's expense.
3. Thus
force can only prevail at the expense of light and vice versa, while motion can
only prevail at the expense of heat and vice versa.
4. Wherever
one finds force over light, power over contentment, will over soul, Devil the
Mother is very much to the fore, as in metachemical
sensuality, the per se context of force.
5. Wherever
one finds motion over heat, glory over form, spirit over ego, Woman the Mother
or, rather, the Clear Spirit of Purgatory is very much to the fore, as in
chemical sensuality, the per se
context of motion.
6. Wherever,
by contrast, one finds heat over force, form over power, ego over will, Man the
Father is very much to the fore, as in physical sensibility, the per se context of heat.
7. Wherever
one finds light over motion, contentment over glory, soul over spirit, God the Father
or, rather, the Holy Soul of Heaven is very much to the fore, as in
metaphysical sensibility, the per se context of light.
8. Subatomically, things proceed from elemental particles to wavicles via molecular particles and wavicles,
so that we can distinguish between four main devolutionary contexts, viz. most
particle/least wavicle, more (relative to most)
particle/less (relative to least) wavicle, less
(relative to least) particle/more (relative to most) wavicle
and least particle/most wavicle, and four main
evolutionary contexts, viz. least wavicle/most
particle, less (relative to least) wavicle/more
(relative to most) particle, more (relative to most) wavicle/less
(relative to least) particle, and most wavicle/least
particle.
9. Strictly
speaking, the primary female contexts are characterized by most particles/least
wavicles and by more (relative to most)
particles/less (relative to least) wavicles, whereas
the secondary male contexts, which require a female hegemony in sensuality, are
characterized by less (relative to least) particles/more (relative to most) wavicles and by least particles/most wavicles,
the former physically subordinate to the chemical female context of more
(relative to most) particles/less (relative to least) wavicles,
the latter metaphysically subordinate to the metachemical
female context of most particles/least wavicles.
10. Contrariwise,
the primary male contexts are characterized by more (relative to most) wavicles/less (relative to least) particles and by most wavicles/least particles, whereas the secondary female
contexts, which require a male hegemony in sensibility, are characterized by
less (relative to least) wavicles/more (relative to
most) particles and by least wavicles/most particles,
the former chemically subordinate to the physical male context of more
(relative to most) wavicles/less (relative to least)
particles, the latter metachemically subordinate to
the metaphysical male context of most wavicles/least
particles.
11. The
photon is the element par
excellence in which the subatomic ratio of most particles/least wavicles obtains, whereas the proton tends to be the
element in which least particles/most wavicles
obtains.
12. The
electron is the element par
excellence in which the subatomic ratio of more (relative to most)
particles/less (relative to least) wavicles obtains,
whereas the deuteron - if we exclude from this context the neutron - tends to
be the element in which less (relative to least) particles/more (relative to
most) wavicles obtains.
13. Contrariwise,
the deuterino - if we exclude from this context the
neutrino - is the element or, rather, elementino par excellence in which the subatomic ratio
of more (relative to most) wavicles/less (relative to
least) particles obtains, whereas the electrino tends
to be the elementino in which less (relative to
least) wavicles/more (relative to most) particles
obtains.
14. The protino is the elementino par excellence in which the subatomic ratio
of most wavicles/least particles obtains, whereas the
photino tends to be the elementino
in which least wavicles/most particles obtains.
15. Elements
appertain to sensuality, elementinos to sensibility,
with the former tending to signify a larger particle, when compared with the
latter, but a smaller wavicle. Therefore the predominance of the particle
appertains to the metachemical and chemical elements par excellence of photons and electrons,
both of which are negative, whereas the predominance or, better, preponderance
of the wavicle appertains to the physical and metaphysical
elementinos par excellence of deuterinos and protinos, both of
which are positive.
16. It is
my view that while photons and electrons are the elements of primary free soma par excellence, protons and deuterons are the
elements of secondary free soma par excellence, the former accordingly
affiliated to the female sex, the latter to the male sex.
17. Likewise
I hold that while deuterinos and protinos
are the elementinos of primary free psyche par excellence, electrinos
and photinos are the elementinos
of secondary free psyche par excellence, the former accordingly
affiliated to the male sex, the latter to the female sex.
18. Photons
are never more sensually negative than in the elemental particle context of metachemical will and never less sensually negative than in
the elemental wavicle context of metachemical
soul, the molecular particle and wavicle contexts of metachemical spirit and ego lying sensually in between.
19. Protons
are never less sensually positive than in the elemental particle context of
metaphysical will and never more sensually positive than in the elemental wavicle context of metaphysical soul, the molecular
particle and wavicle contexts of metaphysical spirit
and ego lying sensually in between.
20. Electrons
are never more sensually negative than in the molecular particle context of
chemical spirit and never less sensually negative than in the molecular wavicle context of chemical ego, the elemental particle and
wavicle contexts of chemical will and soul lying
sensually in between.
21. Deuterons
are never less sensually positive than in the molecular particle context of
physical spirit and never more sensually positive than in the molecular wavicle context of physical ego, the elemental particle and
wavicle contexts of physical will and soul lying
sensually in between.
22. Deuterinos are never more sensibly positive than in the
molecular wavicle context of physical ego and never
less sensibly positive than in the molecular particle context of physical
spirit, the elemental particle and wavicle contexts
of physical will and soul lying sensibly in between.
23. Electrinos are never less sensibly negative than in the
molecular wavicle context of chemical ego and never
more sensibly negative than in the molecular particle context of chemical
spirit, the elemental particle and wavicle contexts
of chemical will and soul lying sensibly in between.
24. Protinos are never more sensibly positive than in the
elemental wavicle context of metaphysical soul and
never less sensibly positive than in the elemental particle context of
metaphysical will, the molecular particle and wavicle
contexts of metaphysical spirit and ego lying sensibly in between.
25. Photinos are never less sensibly negative than in the elemental
wavicle context of metachemical
soul and never more sensibly negative than in the elemental particle context of
metachemical will, the molecular particle and wavicle contexts of metachemical
spirit and ego lying sensibly in between.
26. Since
there is a straight correlation between elemental particles and appearances,
molecular particles and quantities, molecular wavicles
and qualities, and elemental wavicles and essences,
it follows that the apparent element of sensual metachemistry
will always be the focus of the per se order of will in photon elemental particles; that the quantitative
element of sensual chemistry will always be the focus of the per se
order of spirit in electron molecular particles; that the qualitative
element or, rather, elementino of sensible physics
will always be the focus of the per se order of ego in deuterino molecular wavicles; and
that the essential element of sensible metaphysics will always be the
focus of the per se order of soul in protino
elemental wavicles.
27. By contrast,
the apparent elementino of sensible metachemistry will always be the focus of the per se disorder of will in photino elemental particles; the quantitative elementino of sensible chemistry will always be the focus
of the per se disorder of spirit in electrino
molecular particles; the qualitative elementino
or, rather, element of sensual physics will always be the focus of the per
se disorder of ego in deuteron molecular wavicles;
and that the essential element of sensual metaphysics will always be the
focus of the per se disorder of soul in proton elemental wavicles.
28. The
primary sex, which is female, is characterized, when free, by photon will and
by electron spirit, which is to say, by somatic force and motion,
neither of which are psychically conducive to anything other than
force-subverted soul and motion-subverted ego, the former appertaining to what
is called the id, or instinctual manifestation (unconscious) of soul, the
latter to what is called the superego, or impulsive manifestation (superconscious) of ego.
29. The
secondary sex, which is male, is characterized, when free, by deuterino ego and by protino
soul, which is to say, by psychic heat and light, neither of
which are somatically conducive to anything other than heat-subverted will and
light-subverted spirit, the former appertaining to what has been called natwill, or the intellectual manifestation (natural) of
will, the latter to what has been called subspirit,
or the emotional manifestation (subnatural) of
spirit.
30. Thus
what obtains in sensuality in the subversion of light by force, of soul by
will, and of heat by motion, of ego by spirit, is not repeated in sensibility;
for light can no more defeat force than heat defeat motion but, rather,
replaced by a situation in which force is subverted by heat, as will by ego,
and motion subverted by light, as spirit by soul, making for the respective
isolation of motion in the one context and of force in the other, neither of
which can escape disorder, or disorientation, in consequence of the psychic
aspects being brought to bear on their somatic counterparts of force and motion
from the contrary standpoints of heat and light.
31. Consequently
the male contexts of sensible freedom differ from the female contexts of
sensual freedom, as psyche from soma, precisely in terms of the hegemony of
either ego or soul as opposed to either will or spirit, heat or light as
opposed to force or motion, with force subordinated to heat in the masculine,
or physical, context of sensible freedom, and motion subordinated to light in
the divine, or metaphysical, context of sensible freedom - males being either a
combination, when sensibly free, of heat and force (masculine) or of light and
motion (divine).
32. Certainly
there is a correlation between heat and force on the one hand, and between
light and motion on the other, the former pair combining a primary ego with a
secondary will, the latter pair combining a primary soul with a secondary
spirit - the emphasis in the one being on Man, in the other on Heaven, as
befitting a distinction between physics and metaphysics.
33. In
the female contexts of sensual freedom, by contrast, light is subordinated to
force in the diabolic, or metachemical, context
thereof, while heat is subordinated to motion in the feminine, or chemical,
context thereof - females accordingly being either a combination, when
sensually free, of force and light (diabolic) or of motion and heat (feminine).
34. One could
say that, in contrast to males, the female context of freedom results in light
being 'freaked out' by force and in heat being 'freaked out' by motion, the
result being the domination of psyche by soma in terms of the instinctual
subversion of soul as id and the impulsive subversion of ego as superego, with
unconscious and superconscious corollaries to the
prevalence of unnatural and supernatural factors appertaining to a primary will
and a primary spirit, both the modified soul and ego of bound psyche being
proportionately secondary.
35. In
the male contexts of freedom, by contrast, force is, as it were, 'reined in' by
heat and motion 'reined in' by light, the result being the dominion of psyche
over soma in terms of the intellectual subversion of will as natwill and the emotional subversion of spirit as subspirit, with natural and subnatural
corollaries to the prevalence of conscious and subconscious factors
appertaining to a primary ego and a primary soul, both the modified will and
spirit of bound soma being proportionately secondary.
36. The
domination of sensual metaphysics by sensual metachemistry
entails a situation in which most photon particles/least photon wavicles are hegemonic over least proton particles/most
proton wavicles, whereas the domination of sensual
physics by sensual chemistry entails a situation in which more (relative to
most) electron particles/less (relative to least) electron wavicles
are hegemonic over less (relative to least) deuteron particles/more (relative
to most) deuteron wavicles.
37. The
dominion of sensible physics over sensual chemistry entails a situation in
which more (relative to most) deuterino wavicles/less (relative to least) deuterino
particles are hegemonic over less (relative to least) electrino
wavicles/more (relative to most) electrino
particles, whereas the dominion of sensible metaphysics over sensible metachemistry entails a situation in which most protino wavicles/least protino particles are hegemonic over least photino wavicles/most photino particles.
38. Since
the female hegemonies of metachemistry and chemistry,
fire and water, are rooted in elements as opposed to elementinos,
one would think that female domination of males, as of society, was the norm
and male dominion over females the exception, since elements correspond
primarily to soma and secondarily to psyche, making for a situation in which
matter takes precedence over mind, and force and motion, power and glory, will
and spirit, are accordingly the primary factors, relegating ego and soul, form
and contentment, heat and light to a secondary status of mere acquiescence in
the particle-based status quo.
39. Yet
this is not invariably the case, for we need not only to distinguish within any
given civilization between its alpha and its omega, its sensuality and its
sensibility, but between stages or types of civilization and the gradual
emancipation of humanity precisely from situations in which sensuality
predominates over sensibility and females are accordingly hegemonic.
40. If we
take an overview of life, it could be argued that life devolves, on the female
side, from metachemistry to chemistry, fire to water,
and evolves, on the male side, from physics to metaphysics, vegetation (earth)
to air, so that one can plot an overall sequence in which a devolutionary
regression from appearances to quantities is juxtaposed with, and even
overhauled by, an evolutionary progression from qualities to essences, as from
will and spirit to ego and soul, or force and motion to heat and light.
41. Certainly
such a sequence does not happen without an immense historical struggle between
peoples and individuals, not least in respect of a gender struggle between
objectivity and subjectivity, soma and psyche, matter and mind, primacy and
supremacy, darkness and light, in which either the female side of life is
triumphant in power and glory, force and motion, or the male side of life
triumphs in form and contentment, heat and light, each triumph entailing the
subordination of the vanquished gender to a position which, while for the most
part distinct from that obtaining hegemonically with
the victorious gender, is nevertheless complementary to it and not at
loggerheads with it in terms of a revolt aimed at a contrary hegemony -
something which does occur, though rather more as the exception than the rule,
bearing in mind the need of societal stability and a certain sense of civilized
continuity and ideological consistency.
42. Some
civilizations go one way, others in the opposite direction, while yet others
seek some compromise between the two, but all are caught up, without fail, in a
gender war the outcome of which will entail the subordination of the opposite
gender - whichever gender that may happen to be - to the more prevalent
criteria in respect of freedom, sanity, justice, rights, etc., typifying the
hegemonic gender.
43. One
could argue, as I have in the recent past, that life devolves from a cosmic to
a mundane level before evolving, in Man, from a human to a universal level, as
from fire to water on the one hand, that of appearances and quantities, and
from vegetation to air on the other hand, that of qualities and essences, but
this is not simply from sensuality to sensibility, nature to nurture, but
encompasses nature and nurture, sensuality and sensibility, in each of the broad categories
of devolution and evolution, if with different ratios.
44. Therefore
one might argue, on a particle/wavicle basis, that
cosmic devolution would broadly reflect a situation of most nature/least
nurture, mundane devolution a situation of more (relative to most) nature/less
(relative to least) nurture; human evolution, by contrast, a situation of more
(relative to most) nurture/less (relative to least) nature, and universal
evolution a situation of most nurture/least nature, with the sensual prevailing
over the sensible in the devolutionary contexts par excellence of the cosmic and the
mundane, but the sensible prevailing over the sensual in the evolutionary
contexts par excellence of the human and the universal.
45. Better
than that, I shall argue in terms of devility and animality on the one hand, and of humanity and divinity on
the other hand, the hand of an evolutionary progression in the face of, or
contrary to, a devolutionary regression, and thus of positivity
as against negativity, psyche as against soma.
46. Equally
one could argue, selecting comparable terminology, for a devolution, on the
female side of life, from tragic polyversality to
comic impersonality, and for an evolution, on the male side of life, from logic(al) personality to beatific universality. But since that may seem somewhat abstract, I
shall revert to a general distinction between the four main elements, viz.
fire, water, vegetation, and air, and allow the aforementioned categories of devility, animality, humanity,
and divinity to correlate with each of them on a basis analogous to that of the
cosmic, the mundane, the human, and the universal, in which the ratio of
sensuality to sensibility or vice versa differs according to whether
devolutionary or evolutionary criteria are uppermost on either absolute or
relative, noumenal or phenomenal, upper- or
lower-class terms.
47. Therefore,
contrary to the devolutionary regressions from devility
to animality, polyversality
to impersonality, in which nature predominates over nurture on either absolute
or relative terms, the evolutionary progressions from humanity to divinity,
personality to universality, are symptomatic of the preponderance of nurture
over nature, and thus of mind over matter, of psyche over soma, on either
relative or absolute terms, and one can reasonably infer that humanity differs
from both devility and animality,
the Cosmos and Nature, in that it is the starting point, though by no means
ending point, of the triumph of nurture over nature, of mind over matter, and
therefore of a sensible preponderance over sensuality.
48. In
short, there is no humanity, properly so considered, until a sensible
preponderance over sensuality has been established and is recognized to be its
chief characteristic, the absence or want of which would suggest either animality or devility, and thus
not Man, properly so considered, but some predecessor or forerunner of Man
whose principal commitment was not to Man, still less to God, but either to
Woman or to the Devil, viz. impersonality or polyversality
(I shall not repeat the error of the ages of identifying universality with the
Cosmos, so that God is erroneously conceived as appertaining to the cosmic
First Mover!), and whose civilization, if one may use such a term, was
accordingly more sensual than sensible.
49. Certainly
the Old Testament provides us with evidence of a people who were both pre-human
and sub-human in terms of their identification, on noumenal
or absolute terms, with both the Cosmos and Nature rather than with Man, the
focus, in effect, of the New Testament, in that Jehovah over Satan accords with
cosmic nature in respect of the precedence of solar by stellar and the
effective reign of stellar over solar, while Saul over David, as a convenient
paradigm of the next stage of devolution, accords with mundane nature in
respect of the precedence of fruit by blossom on trees and the effective reign
of blossom over fruit, to the exclusion, in both cases, of human nature,
whether in terms of eyes or ears, the so-called Risen Virgin or the so-called
Father, neither of which would be intelligible, nor indeed feasible, without
prior reference, in human nurture, to the reign of brain over womb, of the Son
of Man over the Virgin Mary, contrasted to which they must signify a decadence
or, at the very least, concession to sensuality as the exception to the human
rule which, being sensible, must ever emphasize the Christian at the expense of
the Heathen - in short, at the expense of the more Judaic Old Testament and
everything that falls short, in pre- or sub-human, cosmic or mundane, terms of
what properly appertains to humanity.
50. For
humanity, to repeat, is characterized by the prevalence of sensibility, and
only in humanity, albeit a God-sensitive humanity, can there be any hope for
evolutionary progress beyond the world to the otherworldly divinity of
'Kingdom Come', and thus to a situation which is post-human in its resolve to
achieve the utmost universality on the basis of most nurture/least nature, most
wavicles/least particles, most church/least state,
most psyche/least soma, most mind/least matter.
51. Thus
the real starting point of civilization conceived as the rejection and
refutation of devility and animality,
of barbarity and philistinism, of cosmic polyversality
and mundane impersonality, is human personality and the development of humanity
towards divinity in enhanced civility and culture, towards that universality
which follows from the relative triumph of nurture over nature in logic and the
possibility of a more absolutist approach to and realization of such a triumph
as its beatific outcome.
52. For
Man is not and cannot be made the end of evolutionary progress! Nothing is more guaranteed to revolt the
superior human being, the godly male, than the doctrine that Man is and must
remain the measure of all things, and that all things must accordingly bow to
Man, as to the ego of psychic physics!
53. Certainly
this is desirable in relation to what precedes Man as the epitome of
humanity, namely worship of and subjection to either Nature or the Cosmos. But as regards what succeeds him, what
stands above him as the absolutely logical outcome of evolutionary
progress, nothing could be more undesirable, from the standpoint of Truth, than
that Man should strive to block, in his egocentric obsession with knowledge,
the path to godliness and hold back the development of culture and civility to
their full extents - something, alas, which the chief representatives of Man as
a purely humanitarian phenomenon committed, through vegetative physics, to the
world seem hell bent on doing, not least by invoking the assistance of Woman as
an intermediary between the Devil and themselves!
54. But
the man who is foolish enough to give Woman an inch soon discovers that she has
taken herself a mile closer to the Devil and to all that is most inimical to
the progress of God, not least in terms of the Devil passing Herself or being
passed off as God and thereby precluding any possibility of genuine godliness
through that universality which, far from being an aspect of or identical with
the Cosmos, is its complete antithesis, even unto the degree of a universal
rejection of the tragic pluralism of cosmic polyversality.
55. No,
there are, it has to be said, men who are only too happy to resist the struggle
towards God and who will sell out to the Devil via Woman if it suits their
ungodly purposes to do so, granting the generality of women access to their
traditional preserves in exchange for the right to exploit what is most
superficially and criminally female in the netherworldly
heights of cosmic polyversality!
56. Such
men, whom some would choose to regard as Man per se, are less than keen on the globalization of
civilization, of contemporary civilization; for they do not relate to the
synthetic artificiality of contemporary post-modern civilization but, on the
contrary, to the non-synthetic artificiality, rooted in analytical duality, in
the dialectics of pluralism, of a civilization which some would regard as
Western and some as Christian and some as Liberal and some as bourgeois but
which, no matter how it is regarded, fights shy of globalization and its
promise of cultural universality.
57. For
such a universality, were it to come properly to pass, would eclipse them,
would invalidate, at a sweep, their pretensions to civility and culture in the
non-synthetic artificiality of the civilization which, no matter how decadent
or degenerate it may now be, still exists in the background or to the rear of
contemporary civilization as both its progenitor and, in some contexts, actual
master, manipulating what is most commercially expedient from a standpoint that
nonetheless lays claim to the virtues and moralities of a bygone age, even in respect
of Christian values.
58. Without
the non-synthetic artificiality of Western civilization as a largely
Protestant-inspired secular and bourgeois manifestation of liberalism, there
would have been no contemporary civilization, no People's civilization as a
largely Socialist-inspired secular and proletarian manifestation of
totalitarianism, and therefore People's civilization is the outcome, in its
global ambitions, of what preceded it in the evolutionary development of
Western civilization from a standpoint opposing and contrary to its
devolutionary regression in Nature from the Cosmos and more Catholic, if not
heathen, traditions.
59. But
this evolution of the phenomenon Man in the face of Marian and Creatoresque traditions, whilst it may have led Western
civilization beyond both non-synthetic and synthetic naturalism to a
non-synthetic artificiality the chief attribute of which is the human
personality of the liberal individual as he strives for economic betterment in
a capitalistic world, was achieved at a tremendously high price, namely the
price of the sacrifice of soul to egocentric knowledge and thus the rejection
of that which, no matter how imperfectly, still clung, if tangentially, to the
older traditions rooted in will and spirit, though especially spirit, as a goal
and ideal towards which the more devout of the faithful could aspire, no matter
how paradoxically in a world which falsely placed a premium on spirit and,
hence, on spirituality as the actual ideal of religion, making the
rejection of will by spirit more important than the injection of ego by soul.
60. Such
a rejection of will by spirit took the religious form of the rejection of time
by mass, but the injection of ego by soul, of volume by space, did not
transpire to anything like the same extent in view of the monistic importance
attaching to spirituality in Western religious tradition, making devolutionary
regression from the alpha-most of noumena of more
significance than evolutionary progression towards the omega-most of noumena, so that mass took precedence not only over time
but effectively, if not officially, over volume and space as well, becoming the
effective ne plus ultra of
devotional commitment.
61. Yet the
evolutionary development of volume in the face of mass and its rejection of
time did not lead to space, at least not sensibly, but rather to a false
progress in which the sensual manifestations of, first, volume and, then,
space, volume perceived volumetrically and space perceived spatially, became,
under Protestant-inspired secular fatalities, the principal characteristics of
Western civilization in its modern, or bourgeois liberal, manifestation, with a
corresponding religious degeneration from the sensibilities of time and mass in
relation to the New Testament to the sensualities of volume and space in
relation to the Old Testament, not least when the American offshoot of the
civilization in question is taken into account and the relation of volume to
space is reversed in favour of space and a sort of Jehovahesque
hegemony in cosmic primacy supersedes in importance the mundane primacy to
which Nonconformism subscribes in its feminine
association with volume conceived or, rather, perceived (from an empirically
objective standpoint) volumetrically.
62. Be
that as it may, the development of contemporary civilization out of the
degeneration into devolutionary regression of Western civilization in its
liberal bourgeois secularity inevitably led to a rejection of space and volume
in favour of time and mass, albeit not in the traditional Catholic or Medieval
terms of sensibility, but as a sensual extrapolation from bourgeois precedent
and, in some sense, a male revolt against what in the sensual manifestations of
space and volume could only be described as a civilization characterized by
female hegemonies, in Anglo-American fashion.
63. This
male revolt led, in the clash of Communism and Fascism, to world war and the
struggle for a New Order, whether global or European in character, and duly
resulted in the rejuvenation and restoration of the West under American
domination, with the achievement, one could say, of a People's liberalism
through corporate capitalism, which has since taken globalization one stage further
than either the Communists or the Nazis would have envisaged, a stage beyond
both science and politics into economics and the so-called global economy of
post-modern contemporary civilization.
64. But
such a civilization is not and never was completely independent of Western
civilization, neither in its traditional Catholic nor Protestant, medieval nor
liberal, manifestations, and both synthetic naturalism and non-synthetic
artificiality persist to the rear, as it were, of the synthetic artificiality
of contemporary civilization, often in roles which suggest dominance rather
than subservience, not least of all in the arts, where all modes of
non-synthetic artificiality, from orchestrally-oriented
classical music and painterly canvas art to figure sculpture and theatrical and
book production play anything but modest roles in the cultural life of the age,
no matter how irrelevant or even abhorrent such phenomena may be to a pop- or
film-loving exemplar of what is truly contemporary in a civilization which, in
its synthetic artificiality, is anything but bourgeois but, rather, based
around the urban proletariat as the type par excellence of that 'humanity' which, in its global
aspirations and potential for cultural universality, for what transcends mere personality,
is nearer to God than is Man, being in effect the nearest thing to divinity
which currently exists on the planet, eastern meditators
notwithstanding!
65. But then Eastern civilization is no less distinct from
global civilization than Western civilization and cannot be accorded
preferential respect as though, in a choice between the two, the Eastern, in
whatever of its various permutations, was the one to adopt. Global civilization transcends, and must necessarily
continue to transcend, both Eastern and Western civilizations, as the urban
proletariat transcend the bourgeoisie and aristocracy, not to mention peasantry
and priesthood, of those societies which, in their rural foundations, fall
short of a properly urban dimension and global aspiration.
66. But
People's civilization, much as it may exist in both the West and the East, and
even under the control, in varying degrees, of civilizations which fight shy of
synthetic artificiality and still cling to their bourgeois or other roots, has
not emerged into contemporary globalization on the male hegemonic terms that
its initial developments or developers may have envisaged for it but, since the
victory in World War II of the Western powers, whether or not synthetically
artificial, over the Axis powers and the subsequent collapse of Communism in
Eastern Europe following the end of the so-called Cold War, rather under female
hegemonies of both space and volume, sequential time under spatial space in the
noumenal context of space/time, and massive mass
under volumetric volume in the phenomenal context of volume/mass, with the sort
of triangular consequences which have been described often enough in my works
in the past not to warrant further exegesis here; though a reminder as to the
desirability, primarily from a male standpoint, of a democratically-achieved
salvation from their sensual integrities to the sensibilities of the
non-triangular structures previously identified by me with 'Kingdom Come' ...
may not be without further merit at this point.
67. However,
while globalization has indeed materialized at the partial expense of both
Western and Eastern traditions, it was not achieved without the sacrifice,
under Western pressures, of male freedom or, at any rate an aspiration towards
male freedom, to female freedom, of psyche to soma, mind to matter, and the
consequent eclipse of ideology by consumerism, whether with a materialist slant
in the noumenal 'above' or with a realist slant in
the phenomenal 'below', neither of which can be anything but dominatingly
hegemonic over both idealism and naturalism, whatever adherents of the latter
may like to think.
68. For
if anything characterizes liberalism, whether bourgeois or people's,
non-synthetically artificial or synthetically artificial, traditional or
contemporary, it is the fact of its domination by female elements and
consequent incompatibility with that psychic freedom which the Church, when
genuine, is pledged to uphold to the greater advantage of form and contentment,
ego and soul, knowledge and truth (joy).
69. Therefore
democracy, as an expression of political pluralism, of ideological relativity,
within a liberal framework, a framework, incidentally, by no means commensurate
with a political per se but effectively
a 'bovaryization' of politics from the standpoint of
an economic hegemony, reveals itself as the enemy of religion and opponent of
evolutionary progress towards a more virtuous, not to say moral, society.
70. Democracy
sees itself, in typically empirical vein, as an end in itself, not as a means
to a higher or better end, but rather as the guarantor of a society in which
Man is the measure of all things and all things must bow to his criteria. Not, however, as in the Christian past, in
relation to Christ, or the godly hype of Man and effective subversion of true
godliness which, besides being metaphysical, appertains to the Father rather
than to the Son, to psyche rather than to soma, but with naturalistic reference
to a secular present in which, to all intents and purposes, female criteria are
hegemonic on both realistic and materialistic terms over a largely somatic
perception of Man.
71. Thus
is humanity compromised by both animality and devility, and no progress towards divinity is seriously
envisaged, such aspirations being regarded as irrelevant to the world and to
the protection of worldly interests, and therefore as something to reject from
a standpoint rooted in consumerism.
72. If,
in the Christian past, humanity had some aspiration, no matter how
paradoxically under the animalistic or, more correctly, anti-animalistic
reality of spiritual hype, towards divinity, nowadays no such aspiration can be
attributed to a humanity or, better, antihumanity not
merely acquiescent in but, in the interests of economic enrichment, besotted by
animality and devility, as
by political and scientific relativity, to the effective exclusion of religion.
73. Obviously
this is anything but a satisfactory situation!
For contemporary civilization, notwithstanding the parts still played by
traditional civilization, has now attained to a concern, under economics, with
vocational advancement and differentiation which, as the pluralistic essence of
liberalism, has replaced what used, in more openly totalitarian contexts, to be
concerns with either race or class, neither of which have much to commend them
to a post-fascist and post-communist society characterized by a liberal
pluralism in respect, primarily, to vocation and the arrogation of science and
politics to its economic ends.
74. For vocation
is in some sense as important to a People's antihumanity
characterized by liberal pluralism as race was to a People's devility characterized by fascist totalitarianism and class
to a People's animality characterized by communist
totalitarianism, neither of which could be taken all that seriously in a
society which is post-ideological in its pluralistic concern with consumerism
in the enterprise culture of the free market, a market not dependent on race or
class but upon vocation, the basis of the ever-burgeoning plethora of
artificial products.
75. Obviously
there are still racial and class distinctions to be found in the world, but
they are not characteristic of contemporary civilization as an expression of
the synthetic artificiality of an urban proletariat. Rather, they are a legacy of Western and
Eastern civilizations, both of which still play a controlling, if not
dominating, role in the conduct of contemporary society which, for all its
proletarian emphasis, is still subject to the bourgeoisie and other, even
older, classes whose lifestyles or products are less synthetically artificial
than non-synthetically artificial and even, in pre-bourgeois terms,
synthetically or non-synthetically naturalistic.
76. Be
that as it may, People's civilization in its liberal mode is, without doubt,
not a class- or even race-based civilization, but a vocational civilization
that esteems career above everything else and makes a virtue out of 'getting-on
in the world' and becoming ever more affluent and economically self-dependent,
even unto the extent of acquiring, one way or another, the prestigious status
of a millionaire, which is to the contemporary world what sainthood was to the
medieval one, and thus a confirmation of vocational success and, in some sense,
attainment of the goal that a society based around economics inevitably aspires
towards.
77. For money, as the lifeblood of economics, is the ideal of
this phase of People's civilization, and money, as we all know, 'speaks all
languages', thereby further facilitating that globalization which is the
touchstone of contemporary credibility.
78. But
money does not, of course, lead to the 'Kingdom of Heaven', to the 'kingdom
within', still less to 'Kingdom Come' as the politically-based framework in
which maximum encouragement can be granted to such a heavenly ideal, but is
more of an obstacle to such an end, putting the welfare of the egocentric self
above that of the psychocentric self, personality
above universality, and even allowing form to be eclipsed by both power and
glory as a superego-eccentrically fuelled concern with the not-self takes over,
and materialistic or realistic matters come to take on more importance than
anything idealistic or naturalistic, much less transcendentalist or humanist, given
that the male not-self is not and never could be an end in itself but must
always be subordinated to the female not-self which, in sensuality, the context
of liberal pluralism par excellence, is ever
hegemonic.
79. For,
despite its claims to humanism and advocacy of human rights, of humane
treatment of children, animals, criminals, etc., liberal pluralism leads, soon
enough, to the dominance of humanity or, rather, antihumanity
by devility and animality,
since a humane approach to animals and devils is a meaningless, not to say
contradictory, procedure which is bound to rebound on its perpetrator as the
devil or animal gets the upper hand from unconcern with any reciprocal
humanity.
80. No
devil or animal has been turned into a human through a humane approach, and few
males whose humanity it would, on grounds of sensibility, be difficult to call
into question would be of any avail in dealing with animals or devils as they
deserve and, in fact, as females more usually deal with them when free to be 'true'
to themselves.
81. Clearly
humanity can only go so far in dealing with animality
and devility; though deal with them it assuredly must
if it is not to be defeated and overrun by either, and obviously on less than
humane terms. For 'humaneness' is something
that works between equals in humanity, and where such equality is lacking,
there can be only the inhumane treatment of unequals,
which is to say, of animals and devils, or all who are characterized by an
evolutionary want of more wavicles/less particles in
either more particles/less wavicles or, worse again,
most particles/least wavicles, and therefore show
themselves chemically or metachemically adrift of
physics in relation to the negativities of somatic freedoms which, far from
adding up to anything virtuous, fly in the face of virtue from criminally
vicious standpoints in weakness and ugliness.
82. Obviously,
a humanity which is sensibly respectful of itself does not take kid gloves to
animals and devils but treats them as they deserve, whether with effect to
controlling them or, in the cases of persons who are simply environmentally or
socially backward, reforming and improving them, so that they are saved from
their effectively pre- and/or sub-human backgrounds and admitted to the
ever-growing community of humans who really are humane to one another,
and thus of humanity in the higher sense.
83. But
vocational humanity is not, in its sensual antihumanity,
of the essence of global civilization, of that synthetically artificial
civilization which has been identified with the People and deemed truly
contemporary, any more than the class animality of
socialism or the race devility of fascism was or ever
could be, since any aspiration towards globalization implies a monistic respect
for airy universality and thus for metaphysical universality, which can only
properly emerge on the basis of ethnicity, and with respect not to humanity
primarily, but to divinity, the order of evolutionary progress which is
commensurate with universality as an expression of a religious ideal, as the
religious ideal par excellence, in
which there is only one God because there could only ever really be one God
that is true and, in truth, germane to universality, not two, three, four, or
more gods the majority of which were manifestly less than properly divine
because other than sensibly metaphysical!
84. No,
the one true God the Father is sensibly metaphysical in respect of the ego that
embraces, through transcendental meditation, the will to breathe of the Son of
God in the lungs and identifies with the out-breath of the Holy Spirit of
Heaven until it must recoil, in self-preservation, to self more profoundly and
thereby achieve the redemption of metaphysical ego in Heaven the Holy Soul, the
joyful justification of truth, the latter of which is ever of God the Father
and thus not an end in itself but that which utilizes the means, in
metaphysical not-self, to a soulful end in beatific joy.
85. Therefore
globalization only comes 'good', only achieves its true perfection on the basis
of divinity, of a divinity which transcends, though does not entirely exclude,
humanity, animality, and devility
or, more correctly, humanity, anti-animality and antidevility, granted that sensibility has the effect of
turning the female elements around so that they express, in paradoxical psychic
emphasis, not the Mother but the Antidaughter, not
free soma but free psyche, and therefore not the Devil in metachemistry
or Woman in chemistry but the Antidevil and the Antiwoman respectively, with a greater emphasis, in free
psyche, on the constrained will and spirit of bound soma than would otherwise
be the case.
86. For
whereas free will has the effect, in sensuality, of 'freaking out' soul in
terms of the id and free spirit of 'freaking out' ego in terms of the superego,
in sensibility, by contrast, free will is 'reined in' by ego in terms of natwill and free spirit 'reined in' by soul in terms of subspirit, becoming bound to the prevailing psychic freedom
which only stems from a male hegemony in which heat and light hold dominion
over force and motion, primarily in terms of physics and metaphysics,
secondarily in terms of chemistry and metachemistry.
87. But
in metaphysical sensibility heat is not, falsely, a sort of end in itself, as
with humanity, the personality of whose vegetative pluralism necessarily falls
short of the universality of airy monism, but is conceived as requiring to be
redeemed in and by the light ... of the soul, as the brain stem of the ego-self
is eclipsed by the spinal cord of the soul-self following the recoil of ego
from the threat to selfhood posed by the out-breath of the not-self which has
issued, in subspiritual vein, from the subwill of the lungs, metaphysical motion from metaphysical
force, neither of which have anything to do with free will and free spirit,
least of all in their female per se, or primary, manifestations, but are the
bound orders of 'thrice-bovaryized' will and 'twice-bovaryized' spirit, fourth-rate will and third-rate spirit,
which constitute a sort of secondary godliness and heavenliness, in
metaphysical not-self, to the primary orders of God and Heaven which obtain in
the metaphysical self and only in the metaphysical self, that
combination of second-rate ego and first-rate soul, a 'once-bovaryized'
ego and the per se order of soul,
in the brain stem and spinal cord of what could be called the upper-class, or noumenal, male of metaphysical sensibility.
88. Therefore
divinity not only transcends humanity, as the soul transcends the ego, or God transcends
Man, but it constitutes, in the sublime essence of its monistic
transcendentalism, what is truly universal and capable of sustaining
globalization on a genuinely universal basis, the only basis upon which it
ultimately can be sustained, given the incompatibility of human
personality with such an essential outcome, the product not of vegetation but
of air.
89. For
any male who meditates transcendentally is God the Father, and this one true
God can only be sustained on the basis of commerce, through transcendental
meditation, with the universal element, viz. the air, which, transmuted into
breath, becomes the spiritual means for the redemption of ego in soul via the
relevant order of will we have identified, correctly and definitively, with the
Son of God, with what supersedes, in metaphysical not-self, the metaphysical
self, and is accordingly secondary to a prime mover, viz. God the Father, as
bound soma is secondary to free psyche.
90. Yet
this is so only of males, and especially of those males who, being divine in
their noumenal absolutism, their capacity not only
for time-space subjectivity but the transcendence of sequential time in spaced
space, are capable of meditation and accordingly metaphysical, characterized by
most wavicles/least particles, and therefore by a
predilection for the soul at the expense not only of the spirit but, more
particularly, of the will, which is also controlled by the ego, though to a
lesser extent, we have argued, than 'down below' in the masculine male context,
notably physics, of voluminous volume, where ego is the most prevalent factor,
as befitting phenomenal relativity.
91. Ultimately,
true globalization presupposes universality, but universality can only be
sustained on the basis of a uniform ethnicity, call it Social
Transcendentalist, or Centrist, which acknowledges the significance of the
metaphysical element, the air, in respect of universality and does so
completely independently of that false, and traditional, identification with
and subsuming of the concept 'universal' into the so-called Universe, meaning
the Cosmos, as that which, in reality, is anything but universal but, rather, polyversal in the fiery pluralism of its starry
appearances, and thus at the farthest environmental remove from divine oneness
or the possibility of true essence, being the basis, in stellar primacy, not of
metaphysical free psyche but of metachemical free
soma, as primarily in respect to an element which corresponds to most
particles/least wavicles and is therefore anything
but divine. It is, in short, the seat of
the Devil, of that which is germane to original crime and accordingly the fount
of free will.
92. Such
a reality, which I have tended in the past to call Devil the Mother, is
fundamentally female, not male, and it is what characterizes all that is
contrary to the precedence of soma by psyche, exemplifying, in sensuality, the
precedence of psyche by soma and thus of wavicles by
particles, of mind by matter, of light by force, of the Daughter by the Mother,
of evil by crime, of immorality by vice.
93. Thus
from the metachemical setting of the 'freaking out'
of light by force, of soul by will, which is called the id or unconscious soul,
life proceeds, in phenomenal devolutionary vein, to the chemical setting of the
'freaking out' of heat by motion, of ego by spirit, which is called the
superego or superconscious ego, and from there it
requires a revolutionary transvaluation of values and
rejection of free will and spirit somatically hegemonic over bound psyche, to
achieve the 'reining in' of force by heat (not light!), of will by ego, in natwill or natural will, and the 'reining in' of motion by
light (not heat!), of spirit by soul, in subspirit or
subnatural spirit, for ego and soul to be free and
psychically hegemonic over bound soma, thereby passing from the dark to the
light, as from matter to mind, crime and/or sin to grace and/or punishment, devility and/or animality to
humanity and/or divinity, unnature and/or supernature to conscious and/or subconscious, as the emphasis
switches from free soma to free psyche, as from fire and/or water to vegetation
and/or air, fact and/or illusion to fiction and/or truth.
94. However,
those who are too antihumanistic (I nearly said
humanistic!), too given to liberal pluralism, will be unlikely to opt for
centrist monism, as for the prospect of universality in a globalization which
owes more to ethnicity than to vocation, more to air than to vegetation, more
to divinity than to humanity, more to truth than to knowledge, more to God than
to Man, more to essence than to quality, and in which contentment justly counts
for more than form.
95. There
is even about humanity, never mind the more sensual and secular antihumanity which smacks of antison
(Antichrist), a paradoxical fatality to be attracted towards devility, in that both have a connection, albeit on
different terms, with force, humanity in terms of the controlling of force from
a standpoint based in heat, devility in terms of the
controlling of light from a standpoint based in force, the extolling of heat,
viz. ego, by the one contrasting with the extolling of force, viz. will, by the
other.
96. Contrariwise,
there is about animality, never mind the more
sensible and ecclesiastic anti-animality which may be
accorded a Marian status, a paradoxical fatality to be attracted towards
divinity in that both have a connection, albeit on different terms, with
motion, animality in terms of the controlling of heat
from a standpoint based in motion, divinity in terms of the controlling of
motion from a standpoint based in light, the extolling of motion, viz. spirit,
by the one contrasting with the extolling of light, viz. soul, by the other.
97. Therefore
while physical humanity exalts in ego, it does so with a certain sympathy
towards will which, in metachemical devility, is free to exalt in itself at the expense,
primarily (though not exclusively) of soul.
98. Contrariwise,
while metaphysical divinity exalts in soul, it does so with a certain sympathy
towards spirit which, in chemical animality, is free
to exalt in itself at the expense, primarily (though not exclusively) of ego.
99. There
is, then, a connection with force that is common, in diametrically antithetical
ways, to physics and metachemistry, humanity and devility, whilst a connection with motion is common, in
diametrically antithetical ways, to metaphysics and chemistry, divinity and animality.
100. Devility thrives on free will and bound soul, while
humanity thrives on free ego and bound will.
But the will, whether free or bound, is common to both. By contrast, divinity thrives on free soul
and bound spirit, while animality thrives on free
spirit and bound ego. But the spirit,
whether bound or free, is common to both.
101. That is why, despite their differences, the Metachemical and the Physical have an understanding of one
another, even unto the making of a sort of Faustian pact between humanity and devility, economics and science, vegetative pluralism and
fiery pluralism, personality and polyversality,
phenomenal subjectivity and noumenal
objectivity. For the will is common to
both.
102. But
that is also why, despite their differences, the Metaphysical and the Chemical
have an understanding of one another, even unto the making of a sort of
Covenant between divinity and animality, religion and
politics, airy monism and watery monism, universality and impersonality, noumenal subjectivity and phenomenal objectivity. For the spirit is common to both.
103. But
it is not the same will that characterizes metachemistry
as characterizes physics, any more than it is the same spirit that
characterizes metaphysics and chemistry.
Both the will and the spirit, not to mention the ego and the soul,
change from element to element, and therefore the type of will or spirit or ego
or soul that characterizes one element will differ from whatever is most
characteristic of the other elements, be they fiery, watery, vegetative, or
airy.
104. Because
the humanistic and the Diabolic have something, namely will, in common with
each other, albeit they approach it from very different standpoints in relation
to the elements of physics and metachemistry, they
have a respect for power which is uncharacteristic of those for whom power is
something to deny rather than to utilize either from a somatic standpoint based
in will or from a psychic standpoint based in ego. Consequently a context which denies power, or
at the very least strives to marginalize or curtail it, tends not to appeal to
them, insofar as their lives are based, one way or another, around its use.
105. Because,
on the other hand, the Divine and the animalistic have something, namely
spirit, in common with each other, albeit they approach it from very different
standpoints in relation to the elements of metaphysics and chemistry, they have
a respect for glory which is uncharacteristic of those for whom glory is
something to deny rather than to utilize either from a psychic standpoint based
in soul or from a somatic standpoint based in spirit. Consequently a context which denies glory, or
at the very least strives to marginalize or curtail it, tends not to appeal to
them, insofar as their lives are based, one way or another, around its use.
106. But free will still differs from free ego, as free soul from
free spirit, since whereas free will and spirit are germane to soma, free ego
and soul are their psychic counterparts, and the Diabolic are no more superior
to the humanistic than the animalistic to the Divine. Rather could it be said that, in respect of
somatic freedom, the Diabolic are objectively superior to the animalistic,
since will is fundamentally metachemical and spirit
chemical, the former noumenal and the latter
phenomenal, whereas, in respect of psychic freedom, the Divine are subjectively
superior to the humanistic, since soul is essentially metaphysical and ego
physical, the former noumenal and the latter
phenomenal.
107. But the Chemical won't aspire, as a rule, to the Metachemical, any more than the Physical will aspire to the
Metaphysical, but rather the Chemical will turn away, as from a more
criminal/evil reality, from the Metachemical, while
the Physical will turn away, as from a more graceful/wise reality, from the
Metaphysical.
108. Thus
in the liberal pluralism of People's democracy, the Divine have need of the
animalistic if they are to turn the tables, as it were, on both the humanistic
- not least in respect, more correctly, of the antihumanity
of physical sensuality - and the Diabolic; for those besotted with humanity to
the exclusion of divinity will not voluntarily acquiesce in their own
egocentric downfall, and therefore any possibility of a new order in society
based around psychocentricity, the universality of
the soul, requires the support, by and large, of those for whom egocentricity
was never an ideal but, rather, an opponent to be outflanked by that which is
common, if in different ways, to both the Divine and the animalistic, namely
the spirit and its capacity for motion.
109. Therefore
if 'Kingdom Come' is to come democratically to pass, in terms of a majority
mandate for religious sovereignty through a paradoxical election with the
potential to put an end to worldly sovereignty, it will not be without the
assistance, in no small measure, of the animalistic, or those for whom the
spiritualizing of ego was the mean and who have in common with the Divine a
sympathy, if from very different standpoints, with motion.
110. In
such fashion can force, whether in freedom or binding, be defeated and the
power of will effectively consigned to the rubbish heap of history, from which
it will be unlikely to arise ever again, to the advantage, needless to say, of
the contentment of soul and all that is most essential, all that treats what is
merely apparent with the contempt and rejection it deserves.
111. For as
long as the will is sovereign, soul will remain an outcast crying in the
wilderness of everything that is subjective and sensibly 'beyond the pale' of
the world and its fatality, in secular humanity, for a quasi-heliotropic deference to devility. Only when those who are not really germane to
this physical fatality of economics hand-in-glove with science opt to throw in
their political weight on the side of divinity, and the new and final divinity
which can only be associated with metaphysical universality, will religion be
re-born from out the ashes of the past and soar to unprecedented heights of
soulful subjectivity through the Social Transcendentalism, as it were, of that
which recognizes the link between the impersonal monism of the chemical and the
universal monism of the metaphysical, of that which the animalistic and the
Divine have in common as they strive for a monistic resolution to the struggle
with pluralism which creates the duality of the world, a duality in which the
attraction of water by air is only matched by the attraction of vegetation by
fire.
112. But
in the triadic Beyond of 'Kingdom Come' to which Social Transcendentalism
points, there would still be a duality of sorts, a post-worldly duality between
the universal monism of transcendentalism on the top tier, the reformed
personal pluralism of humanism on the middle tier, the reformed impersonal
monism of nonconformism on the bottom tier, and the
reformed polyversal pluralism of fundamentalism
within the administrative aside to the Beyond in question, except that it would
be between transcendentalism and fundamentalism in respect of God the Father
and Antidevil the Antidaughter,
and between humanism and nonconformism in respect of
Man the Father and Antiwoman the Antidaughter,
and therefore germane to the noumenal sensibilities
of space and time in the transcendentalist/fundamentalist duality between
universal monism and polyversal pluralism, and to the
phenomenal sensibilities of volume and mass in the humanist/nonconformist
duality between personal pluralism and impersonal monism.
113. Yet
all sensibilities, whether of time in the administrative aside to the triadic
Beyond, or of mass, volume, and space in the Beyond itself, would be subject to
the lead of transcendentalism and thus to the overall hegemony of universal
monism, a monism which recognizes only one God, viz. God the Father, and makes
of His redemption in Heaven the Holy Soul the raison d'être of truth.
114. Man
the Father, Antiwoman the Antidaughter,
and Antidevil the Antidaughter
would not be hyped out of all proportion to their actual worth, still less
subverted by the Son of Man, the Antimother of Antiwoman, or the Antimother of Antidevil, any more than God the Father would be subverted
by the Son of God, but all manifestations of soma would, without exception, be
subordinated to and informed by the psychic freedom of God the Father to an
extent which made any other concept of God, or devotion to some adjunct
thereof, untenable and effectively impossible.
115. For transcendentalism,
to repeat, is characterized by universal monism, and Social Transcendentalism,
as the ideological philosophy of the concept of religious sovereignty within a
framework which would allow people of Catholic and Protestant denominational background
to be reconciled to the same ethnicity, the same religious orientation, could
not permit humanism, nonconformism, or fundamentalism
to exist independently of this monistic universality appertaining to
transcendentalism, but only as humanist, nonconformist, or fundamentalist 'bovaryizations', in effect, of the overriding
transcendentalist mean which, relegating physics, chemistry, and metachemistry to a subordinate position in the hierarchy of
elements, sought ever to protect and advance its metaphysical lead.
116. Thus
the only reason for the existence of less than perfectly transcendentalist
orientations in 'Kingdom Come' would be the limitations of those who were not
'up to' godliness and could not be accorded a per se order of transcendentalism due to the
nature of their gender and/or social backgrounds, and who would, in any case,
be more useful both to themselves and to others as subordinate components in
the overall hierarchy of the triadic Beyond and administrative aside to what
has come to be identified, not without reason, with the principal
manifestations of 'Kingdom Come'.
117. But
upper and lower divisions between the noumenal,
whether objective or subjective, and the phenomenal, whether subjective or
objective, would not be commensurate with class in the traditional sense of
aristocrats, clergy, bourgeoisie, proletariat, or what have you, even if a
noble/plebeian distinction between the different grades or tiers of
contemporary urban people would be difficult, if not impossible, to deny.
118. For
contemporary civilization, as characterized by synthetic artificiality, is a
People's civilization par
excellence, and the People will be no less 'people' in its sensible phase,
should they elect for such a phase in the judgemental paradox of a vote for
religious sovereignty, than they are in the sensual and largely secular
present, where distinctions between noumenal and
phenomenal, noble and plebeian, of course exist in relation to the largely
Catholic/Protestant dichotomy between perpendicular triangularity
and inverted triangularity, the sensual decadence of
space/time and the heretical sensuality of volume/mass.
119. And
by 'people' I of course mean those who live, and often work, in an urban
environment and could accordingly be classified, whether noble or plebeian, noumenal or phenomenal, as more synthetically artificial
than non-synthetically artificial or synthetically or even non-synthetically
natural, if one happens to distinguish urban dwellers from both suburban/town
and country dwellers in such fashion.
120. But
our definition of the People cannot be fanatically proletarian, in the Marxist
or Communist sense, since we are not concerned with the impersonality of class
monism on the plebeian basis of blue-collar worker solidarity in some
politically totalitarian state, any more than our principal concern is with the
polyversality of racial pluralism in the sense of the
domination of one race over other races in some scientifically totalitarian
state, or with the personality or, at any rate, persona-enhancing tendencies of
vocational pluralism in the sense of putting career above all else and
conceiving of oneself first and foremost in terms of one's professional status
in some economically totalitarian state, no matter how politically pluralist it
may happen to appear or, indeed, require to be in order to provide the
appropriate post-fascist and post-communist basis for what I hold, in the
multinational economics of corporate capitalism, to be the penultimate
manifestation of totalitarianism.
121. On
the contrary, our concern can only be ethnic primarily, since it is with
respect to the universality of ethnic monism on the basis of Social
Transcendentalism in some religiously totalitarian church in which the People
are brothers or sisters to one another, and thus neither professional rivals,
class bigots, nor racists, but ethnically aligned in respect of their various
elementally-conditioned approaches to religious truth, that we subordinate the
ideals of personality, impersonality, and polyversality,
viz. vocation, class, and race, and thus the State to the overriding universal
interests of a true Church, a Church which is both universalist
and transcendentalist, making transcendental meditation its highest ideal.
122. For
truth cannot abide the insubordination of knowledge, strength, or beauty, much
less risk being eclipsed by their negative counterparts in some somatically
free society that dresses up its worship of fact in the apparel of truth and
relegates subjectivity to an illusory subservience before the all-powerful and
all-glorious thrones of force and motion.
123. Truth
can only abide the subordination of beauty, and when truth is hegemonic even
knowledge must subordinate itself and not play god, to the disadvantage of what
properly appertains to godliness and would have no other god besides itself,
with sufficient reason!
124. For when Man plays god, then God is reduced to knowledge in
the vegetative pluralism of humanism, and no transcendentalism in the
transcendence of ego by soul is possible to a creature for whom the dominion of
ego over will in physical personality is cardinal, if taking is formally to
prevail.
125. And when Woman plays god, then God is reduced less to
strength than to weakness in the watery monism of realism, and no
transcendentalism in the transcendence of ego by soul is possible to a creature
for whom the domination of ego by spirit in chemical impersonality is cardinal,
if giving is gloriously to prevail.
126. And when the Devil plays god, then God is reduced less to
beauty than to ugliness in the fiery pluralism of materialism, and no
transcendentalism in the transcendence of ego by soul is possible to a creature
for whom the domination of soul by will in metachemical
polyversality is cardinal, if doing is powerfully to
prevail.
127. Only
when God is properly acknowledged through the airy monism of transcendentalism
is truth made manifest; for God is one for whom the dominion of soul over
spirit in metaphysical universality is cardinal, if being is contentedly to
prevail.
128. And
when God is properly acknowledged through the practice of transcendental
meditation by those who, as metaphysical males, are most entitled to being,
one does not find the Devil but the Antidevil as the beautiful
complement to truth in the fiery pluralism of fundamentalism, where no
domination of soul by will is possible in view of the curtailment of will and
spirit, but especially spirit, by bound soma to an anti-doingful
end which paradoxically approaches truth through beauty.
129. And
when Man is properly acknowledged, as an inferior to God, through the practice
of transcendental (prayerful) cogitation by those who, as physical males, are
most entitled to taking, one does not find Woman but the Antiwoman
as the strong complement to knowledge in the watery monism of nonconformism, where no domination of ego by spirit is
possible in view of the curtailment of will and spirit, but especially will, by
bound soma to an anti-giving end which paradoxically approaches knowledge
through strength.
130. For,
in truth, not only beauty, but knowledge and strength are dependent, in no
small measure, on the acknowledgement of truth, without which Man has no
yardstick by which to measure himself but becomes, perversely, the humanistic
measure of all things, even unto the subversive arrogation of truth by
knowledge or even, more perversely, the antihumanistic
exclusion of truth, and therefore godliness, from the total picture of life, so
that it comes to resemble a soulless landscape dominated by the Devil, as by
the technological praxis of science.
131. For,
in knowledge, Man cannot hold up by himself, once he has turned his back on God
or the possibility of godliness, without entering into a deal, sooner or later,
with the Devil, ego with will, free heat with free force, since he is unable to
go it alone with nowhere to go but must sell what remains of his soul to the
Devil, humanity not being equipped to entertain aspirations towards divinity
when once it has rejected light, or any theoretical compromise between itself
and God, and turned so much against godliness that only God's greatest enemy,
the Devil, can guarantee it protection or, at the very least, intermittent
relief from the just retribution of divinity as the consequences of its
humanistic denial fall upon antihumanity, which is
the motion of animality, or free spirit.
132. Therefore
the falsely masculine cling to the skirts of the Diabolic for fear that they
should be obliged to come to terms, one way or another, with God's just
retribution, whereas the genuinely masculine, who are still fearful of God and
therefore theoretically faithful unto the possibility of godliness, remain open
to the possibility of light as the redemption of heat and master of motion,
remain open, in short, to the possibility of God and of divine deliverance from
the world and all that would deny such deliverance in favour of that false
relationship between Man and the Devil, antihumanity
and devility, which far from conjoining pluralism
with monism bespeaks a double pluralism the only outcome of which is the denial
of monism on both phenomenal and, especially, noumenal
terms.
133. Therefore
if justice is to be done to those whose monism was denied by an overbearing
humanity, an antihumanity besotted by secular
pluralism, they will be encouraged and permitted by the relevant authorities
and champions of progress to exploit the Achilles heel, so to speak, of
economic totalitarianism and operate in democratic conjunction with all of good
conscience who would wish to see an end to the world and the coming of the
'Kingdom of God', a 'Kingdom' which, in the event of a majority mandate for
religious sovereignty, would set about bringing forth the light of soul from
out the shadows of heat as the ego climbed above both the will and the spirit,
force and motion, of metaphysical reality to soar into the contemplative
heights of the soul, newly released from the prison of self in which it had
slumbered during the twilight era of the ego and of the arrogant reign,
conducted in dualistic partnership with the Devil, of Man.
134. It is
by eclipsing the ego, whether freely hegemonic from the standpoint of heat or unfreely subordinate from the standpoint of motion, of
spirit, that the soul will come into its own in the light of eternity, to
illuminate the self and grant to life a dimension which the world either denies
or fails to understand, a dimension of psychic freedom which towers above not
only the ambiguous freedom of ego but also above and beyond the somatic
freedoms, more characteristic of state totalitarianism, of spirit and
will.
135. For
only when the soul is free from subversion or denial will the light of heaven
be revealed, to shine from the godly upon a mankind reformed by truth to extents
whereby even the knowledge of humanity, the strength of animality
or, rather, anti-animality, and the beauty of antidevility will not go untempered
or untransmuted by its shining presence, becoming
rather as sensible witnesses, through formal quality, antiglorious
quantity, and antipowerful appearance, to the joyful
essence of a contentment supreme, the contentment, in a word, of supreme being!
