CYCLE TWENTY-FOUR: TOWARDS A SUPERCHRISTIAN DISPENSATION
1. Freedom from the objective hegemony of free
will in order to achieve the subjective hegemony of natural determinism,
whether in relation to natural (republican) or to supernatural (centrist)
criteria.
2. Such a liberation can only be optimally
achieved in relation to the religious sovereignty of 'Kingdom Come', with
particular reference to the triadic Beyond, or three-tier structure (duly subsectioned) of religious praxis, to which Social
Transcendentalism, the ideological philosophy of 'Kingdom Come', would
subscribe.
3. A Centrist federation ... of Ireland,
Scotland, and Wales ... would of course be effectively commensurate with
'Kingdom Come', for it is a 'kingdom' of God whose figurehead can only be the Messianic
'god- and/or philosopher-king' broadly identifiable with the 'Second Coming'.
4. Such a 'Second Coming' offers not a Christian
but a Superchristian inner alternative to both Superheathen and Heathen modernity, each of which is rooted
in the objective hegemony of the 'Kingdom Without'.
5. One might distinguish Superchristian
from Christian in terms of supernatural from natural, or metaphysical from
physical, the former airy and the latter vegetative, while reserving to Superheathen and Heathen the distinction between
super-unnatural and unnatural, or metachemical and
chemical, the former fiery, the latter watery.
6. For the Superchristian dispensation that is offered by me goes
beyond the vegetative sinfulness of Christianity by embracing the authentic
grace of meditative praxis, thereby providing ample opportunity for the
cultivation of genuine spirituality by those who, broadly identifiable as supermasculine, would be both capable of and entitled to
it.
7. Meditative praxis towers above verbal
absolution following confessional contrition (for sin) as genuine grace above
pseudo-grace, or genuine spirituality above pseudo-spirituality, since the
former is affiliated to the lungs and the breath, as power and glory of the
inner metaphysical self, whereas the latter's affiliation is to the brain and
'the word', as power and glory of the inner physical self, both of which are
vegetative shortfalls, in physical naturalism, from the metaphysical idealism
(supernaturalism) of airy grace.
8. Only (inner) noumenal
being can properly free one from phenomenal taking, since it takes more than
pseudo-grace to provide an adequate alternative to and/or deterrent from sin,
which is ever vegetative in both sensual and sensible terms.
9. Thus the triadic Beyond
would provide, in its top tier, the possibility of genuine deliverance from sin
for those who wanted it, since transcendental meditation would be its principal
mode of religious praxis, in keeping with what, under Messianic auspices,
amounts to a Superchristian dispensation.
10. It is my belief that Catholics would be the
chief candidates for the top tier of the triadic Beyond, since they are the
ones most habituated, traditionally, to the reception of pseudo-grace in
response to confessional contrition, and should therefore be ready for genuine
grace.
11. Others, more habituated to sin (Anglicans)
and/or punishment (Puritans), would be better suited to the lower tiers of the
triadic Beyond, since it is there that earthly and purgatorial criteria would
prevail over heavenly criteria, in due deference to their more worldly
traditions in non-confessional vegetation and water.
