CYCLE NINETEEN

1. I intimated, several cycles ago, that, at its purest manifestation, mind is spiritual, and thus a reflection, through awareness, of being, which derives its essential nature (supernature) from the air one breathes as a human being.

2. Hence without air, there would not only be no human beings but no being, since being is that which accords with awareness as the property of essence, and air is the essential element, the one that, being metaphysical, lies beyond the perceptions of the senses as that which cannot be seen but nonetheless everywhere mystically is.

3. In this respect, the metaphysical element of air transcends not only the physical element of vegetation, but, more indirectly, the chemical element of water and the metachemical element of fire, the latter of which exists in a noumenally antithetical relationship to it, as, in general terms, appearance to essence.

4. I am not simply because I exist, since anything can exist, even an inanimate object, but because I experience being as a condition of breathing, which makes me sentient (aware).

5. Hence the experience of awareness, or being, is conditional upon my continuing to breathe, though only through a determination to breathe consciously, which is meditation, can I experience enhanced being and thus the maximum of awareness of which I, as a sentient being, am capable.

6. The philosopher can do no more, as a wise man, than to advocate meditation as the methodology by which being is maximized, and one enters into the grace of the Elect of Spirit.

7. Such an Elect of Spirit are not only superhuman but, more specifically, supermasculine, since they achieve a superconscious accommodation of the inner metaphysical self, the mind, to spirit in spaced space, which is the only Space in which sensible being can thrive.

8. By contrast, spatial space would amount to a superfeminine irrelevance to such supermen, since only that which is super-unconscious can thrive in spatial space, and it does so not on the basis of spirit, of air, but on the basis of soul, of fire, particularly, at that level, with regard to the eyes.

9. Hence the supermasculine is as far removed, in Space, from the superfeminine ... as it is possible to conceive of, and thus that which appertains to the omega of Space as opposed to its alpha.

10. Such an omega of Space is commensurate with a sensible subjectivity, and it contrasts, absolutely, with the sensual objectivity of the alpha of Space, wherein the superfeminine Devil ... of super-unnature ... is enthroned.

11. Thus whereas mind is spiritual, associated (through metaphysics) with the ears in sensuality and with the lungs in sensibility, soul, by contrast, is emotional, associated (through metachemistry) with the eyes in sensuality and with the heart in sensibility, and therefore concerned, fundamentally, not with being but with doing, its metachemical antithesis.

12. The philosopher, when genuine, will not be one to advocate doing through soul, after the fashion of, say, poets, and neither will he advocate giving through the id or taking through the ego, after the respective fashions of dramatists and novelists (fiction writers).

13. For whereas the id is instinctual and thus feminine, associated chemically with the tongue in sensuality and with the womb in sensibility, the ego is intellectual and thus masculine, associated physically with the phallus in sensuality and with the brain in sensibility, and both of these are shortfalls from the philosopher's concern, as a metaphysician, with being through spirit, which alone makes for wisdom.

14. Where this particular philosopher differs from previous philosophers is in his advocacy, through the concept of religious sovereignty, of a triadic Beyond, commensurate with 'Kingdom Come', in which giving and taking defer, beingfully, to being, while doing, duly transmuted, takes upon itself the burden of administering such a triadic Beyond, in order that the People may be united, under Social Transcendentalism, the ideological religion of 'Kingdom Come', as advocated by he who effectively corresponds, in his Messianic wisdom, to a Second Coming.

15. For only through this 'philosopher king' can the People elect for religious sovereignty when the opportunity arises, and only through religious sovereignty will they be saved from their political 'sins of the World', to enter, beyond that, into the triadic framework of 'Kingdom Come', the Social Transcendental Centre, or context of religious sovereignty, wherein being will peak at an all-time high not only in relation to the heavenly purity of true being, but also in relation to the deferential lower tiers of what might be called the giving-being and taking-being of a New Purgatory and a New Earth respectively.
