Book of the Day – Difference and Repetition - Part 2

In the first part of our analysis of Difference and Repetition, we traced Deleuze’s critical demolition of the representational image of thought. Difference and Repetition, by Gilles Deleuze We followed his genealogical unmasking of the principles that have governed Western philosophy’s approach to thinking: identity, opposition, analogy, and resemblance. Deleuze showed that each of these…

Channeled Angelic Wisdom of the Jewels of Truth Series on Destiny, Future Past, and Meta-Genesis

Hello All,

Today is a bonus entry for the month of February due to the fact I missed my original entry for January last month. So this is a twofer for this month with 2 longhand and 1 short social media statement of the series. 

As a refresher to distinguish what I mean by shorts by the way of statements. It is similar as to how I first began my Inspirational automatic writing in Volume 1 of the Jewels of Truth: A Soul Odyssey Within book series. All of which were predominantly very short one-liners up to two full paragraphs of a statement topic length. 

I have continued the practice of Inspired psychic automatic writing by being a clairaudient for now over 28 years time. (meaning a clairvoyant listener telepathically to the heavenly angels akin to a hive mindset.) As the years progressed in this spiritual calling from within my divine being I became stronger in the discipline of writing intuitively. The length of the topic statements has grown naturally to what you see today which is anywhere from 8 to 14 paragraphs on average of length of content. 

So today's 1st statement will be a short one on Destiny with two additional longhand topics on Future Past and Meta-Genesis. The topic of Future Past is sourced from one of my Master Angel Guides I nicknamed Paragon from the Angelic Choir of Virtues. Basically, he infers that aside from the past directly influences the future in a linear capacity in terms of temporal (aka dimensional time) mechanics. That the Future as a collective point also balances out indirectly and influences the past on a macro basis. 

The next topic of Meta-Genesis is a mystical angle of metaphysics I have covered prior here at Atrayo's Oracle blog site. Each time revealing a bit more statement by statement on the topic as a smattering over the layers of discourse. To distill the topic down to a main idea the numerous Heaven's of countless mythologies as Dead religions to our contemporary era. Is a major oversight those heavenly planar realms meta-dimensionally coexist with whatever major religion(s) is popular on Earth at any given time. 

So without further adieu may you find these unique topics intriguing even if it doesn't sit well with you whichever disagreement stirs you. In the end, this is meant to expand your boundaries of the Infinite spiritual metaphysical horizons set forth by God's Great Mystery. Amen. 

Destiny:

3293) What is accidental by humanity in question is often ordained as Destiny by God himself. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

Future Past:

3239) The future isn't metaphysically all that is cracked up to be by the naked human eyes. There are temporal reversible circular dynamics at play impacting the very future each of you espouses as lifetimes go. For instance, an unknown future is often gauged by that person's past incremental actions as many maxims over the ages have surely spoken for in truth. 

However, from our Heavenly angelic stance the Big Meta-Picture we can perceive the totality of a human individual lifetime as if measuring a yardstick temporally speaking in a timeless instant. Like seizing a whole measuring rod as if it were a living lightning bolt and inspecting each pivotal minutiae as necessary. 

This means we can entreat or entertain numerous inferred several futures simultaneously by probabilities of what past actions are acted upon and which ones are neglected for instance. The pathfinding of a lifetime is crucial at certain bottlenecks of the clashing of constants and contrasts in greater upheavals of select periods than many others. What is the most likely outcome isn't always plain for all to see there are wildcards as freak tears along the seams. 

The Sins of the Future yet not committed by a person(s) are monumental often stoked by their past actions no matter what is presently occurring as a form of standby modality. This is where Fate becomes a constant mutable force that can arch the circumstances in either direction along the route to resolutions occurring. However, with Destinies, these are fixed constant forces in contrast with the mutable curved Fates as alternating elements that can be twisted into shape. 

The consequences over the years you as individuals encounter are manifold as cross-currents whether realized or not. There are cascading elements that clearly run across each of you that you aren't even in the slightest aware of in fact. This is not to state the current events in your locality but the state of cosmic fluctuations around the Earth and the looming horizons metaphysically. Everything happens in greater circular waves from whichever dynamic is in play currently as unconscious and intelligent forces occur.

Thus the phrase of what comes around goes around not unlike the trajectory of the universal Infinity numeral eight serves its purpose here. Often it is assumed the momentum traveling through a figure eight is only one direction of its looping corridor. That isn't the case it is usually Bi-Directional akin to a transfusion of forces as collisions happening beyond what humanity has yet to Imagine much less measure scientifically. 

Only Future scientists as astrophysicists no doubt will be the fools to accidentally discover such Bi-Directional Pulses in terms of temporal mechanics for lack of a better example. Looking for one thing elsewhere they stumble across this phenomena altogether and put it aside not dealing with what they discovered until years later. Thus such implicit bias from the scientific team is considered foolish from our angelic vantage point.

What will be unraveled when the sequence dynamics of temporal disturbances can be measured not just in one mono-directional movement. Instead in at least a Bi-Directional flow pattern matrixes not unlike a polar stationary effect. What is all but truncated right now will have future galvanized excitement when what is deemed true finally is understood for what it means. 

What is future is also roughly past in concurrent equal flow patterns imaging two end points of great macro scale. Utilizing the prior simplistic yardstick analog at one end is macro past and the other is macro future. People erroneously believe it is linear, nay it flows towards the middle ground as the present moment of the Eternal Now. Gravity isn't always a predictable motion to rely upon here it can trick the observer from whichever angle they infer from originally as a vantage point. 

What is present tense is a vortex of the past and future co-mingling constantly. The past flows past the present tense and the future flows forward and backward simultaneously in a bi-directional constant stream of time dimensionally speaking. Albeit in a truer sense of the dynamic both the past, present, and future flow forwards and backward and into parallel jetties as well. 

We are using layman's terms of thermal fusion and other words that are foreign scientifically to our intuitive channel "Ivan the Atrayo". We are dumbing it down for him and you the reader to attempt to understand these minute particular forces of dark matter. What is theoretical won't last for long in about a dozen years or so perhaps more like fifteen years the accidental discovery will be made related to this topic. 

What is the Future doesn't just stay trapped in fore long further distant future progressions. It also reverses like a river that flows in two or more opposing directions dimensionally speaking. Utilizing the vantage point of gravity will only confuse the matter altogether for that isn't reliable. Gravity has sink holes for lack of a better term to our Intuitive channeler. In the distant future inventions of certain gamma radon ray bursts will be used like dyes used in medical nuclear medicine for cancer patients are today. 

In order to gauge the influx pattern matrixes of what is flowing from the future and the past in reverse orders of circumference. Delicate housing of such instrumentality will have to be placed offsite in remote undersea locations so as to not irradiate personnel by mistake. Atomic power nuclear utilities are too dangerous to run such experimentation of such temporal mechanics. 

Until that Time (pardon the pun) the theorems will only continue as mathematical principles are laid bare. Some of us in the Heavenly Host hold humanity with utter contempt without ego. Beyond homo-sapiens with countless other hominids, we have cleaned up after your terrestrial and cosmic messes. Albeit we absolutely Trust in God that his semi-sentient life forms have merit although that is a long game based for the spiritually immortal. 

Aside from the thereom of parallel realities, there are several other Earths that have destroyed themselves over so many times it is despicable to mention from our celestial vantage point. Yours hangs in the balance and the longer all of you eat manure figuratively speaking so shall you all reap Hell on Earth instead collectively. Be not another failed parallel reality of the Earth in the spectrum of the Infinite Great Mystery. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo. (Channeled from Master Angel Guide Paragon of the Angelic Choir of Virtues.)

Meta-Genesis:

3238) All there are are the many inferences of the ultimate Divine Expressions of Being like God the Supreme Monotheist Diety. Such lesser beings whether deemed alive as consciousness are best understood as spiritually present as ghostly spirits and/or as soul kind matters little. What is often secondary can be easily overlooked as to the aspect of the totality of the supernatural reality itself. 

When working with the ethereal metaphysical reality it is best to wrestle with it at its ultimate conclusion by any faith in question. What is Constant as Immutable as Forever is God(dess) the Supreme Gender Identified as Simultaneously Malesculine and Fenmine in Perfect Harmony. Everything else is so-called downwind as fragmentation thus creating Infinity of a slew of endless spiritual life forms as entities or ghosts for instance. 

Here on Earth as the countless remembered historical and long-forgotten civilizations that lay buried. Each is a mini-Super Power of their Day and Age as the Ultimate Influencers geopolitically. Many had State-sanctioned Pagan religions some for centuries and others more powerful for a couple of eons at least.

When speaking about Religious Power we are declaring it as the Worshipping Power of God however it was defined in antiquity. Be it as a Pantheon of our brethren's angelic spirits or souls as the lesser deities. Or some other add mixture of God itself as Brahma/Vishnu/Shiva that stand apart for the Hindus and a throng of lesser deities too numerous to count angelically for example to date. 

What clings today as literary mythologies as recalled dead religious theology be it Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, Ancient Egypt, Meso-American Toltecs, Aztecs, Incas, and Mayans to name a few. The diverse array of such long since passed by centuries and eons of human-led theocratic civilizations. Isn't as dead and buried archaeologically as you may collectively wish. 

The religious worshipping power of your global ancestors had merit by their collective barbaric intentions spiritually speaking. The energy of the Soul of God flowed beautifully in how and whom they worshipped as the lesser angelic gods and goddesses may have been. If not the animistic elemental forces of the earth itself highlighting the Neanderthals giving rise to the very first fairies so to speak ancestrally.

What lays in ruins physically on Earth materially as terra-firma is spiritually albeit metaphysically very much alive each in their own flawed and enlightened versions of Heaven, Limbo, and Hells collectively. Thus the term Meta-Genesis was coined in this context by our Intuitive channeler "Ivan the Atrayo".

The places of worship in Europe, Asia Minor now the Middle East, and the Americas that were deemed by Christianity as the Pagans. Whereby they dismantled such ancient places of worship as repurposed Cathedrals and other Churches. Didn't entirely eject their lesser deity forebears altogether as suspected. The religious or worshipping power of your ancestors isn't so easily erased as it has seeped into the very building blocks and plazas of old by said Christians, if not to a lesser extent the Muslims with Hagia Sofia in Istanbul, Turkey.

The Abrahamic faiths are but the latest esteemed beloved window dressing for this series of recent eons as epochs go of religious fervor on Earth to date in the Western Hemisphere. Alongside the elder status of Judaism, there lies Hinduism, and to a lesser extent the last remnants of Zoroastrianism. Not to forget the numerous cousins such as the philosophical Buddhists, Jains, Sikhism, Shintoism, Taoism, and Confucianism to name the cornerstones of Asian benediction of faiths and philosophies. 

All these heavens, limbo twilight zones, and hells collectively co-exist in the afterlife. Many are Enlightened many more aren't as the struggling youths attempting to find introspection over a longer immortal forever period of the metaphysical. There is a lattice of the Meta-Genesis at work all can be loosely deemed as the Totality of God itself however He/She/Itself is defined by the living and the ancestral dead. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

Frankincense (Boswellia Carteri) and DNA Repair🧬 💉🤯

Frankincense, or Boswellia carteri, has been revered for its therapeutic properties across various cultures and religious texts, including the Bible. Its usage dates back thousands of years, cited for its capacity to heal and purify. Interestingly, modern scientific research has begun to uncover that the resin of Frankincense may have properties that contribute to cellular health, including DNA repair.

Properties of Frankincense:

Anti-inflammatory: Boswellic acids, the active compounds in frankincense, are known for their powerful anti-inflammatory effects.

Antioxidant: Frankincense is rich in antioxidants, which help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.

DNA Repair:

Recent studies suggest that frankincense may contribute to DNA repair mechanisms. The presence of compounds in frankincense can potentially support the body's natural ability to heal and regenerate by:

Reducing Oxidative Stress:

Antioxidants in frankincense mitigate oxidative stress, which can damage DNA. By reducing such stress, frankincense helps preserve the integrity of genetic material.

Anti-inflammatory Effects:

Chronic inflammation can lead to DNA damage and subsequently, various diseases. The anti-inflammatory properties of frankincense reduce such risk factors, indirectly supporting DNA repair.

In the biblical narrative, particularly in texts like Genesis and the Book of Enoch, it's mentioned that fallen angels (Nephilim) sought to corrupt mankind's DNA. If seen from this perspective, the concept that frankincense—a substance already revered in biblical times—can contribute to restoring and repairing DNA is compelling and symbolic.

Purification: Frankincense has traditionally been seen as purifying. In the spiritual sense, using frankincense to "repair" DNA could symbolize the restoration of divine order and purity, aligning humanity closer to what some might interpret as the original creation by God.

Spiritual Healing: This idea ties into the broader spiritual and healing properties traditionally ascribed to Frankincense. It represents not just physical, but also metaphysical restoration.

A Fascinating Intersection: The intersection of ancient spiritual beliefs and modern scientific findings presents a fascinating scenario. The idea that a substance mentioned in the Bible as sacred and healing could, in fact, have properties that support DNA repair underscores the timeless nature of traditional wisdom, harmonizing with contemporary science. 🤔

Elysium & Neon Genesis Evangelion connections

[A forum post made by Robert Kurvitz, translated with deepL:]

Neon Genesis: Evangelion Posted by Marat Sar 13:59 8. Nov 2004 I wonder if there's anyone left here who can tell me something fascinating about it. Or, who I'd want to say it to myself. But you've got to share with someone when you've seen one of the best films/serials/animations of your life in a total sixteen-hour marathon. It's particularly refreshing to see an oriental epic, completely unashamed and in stark contrast to Western style and narrative, flying before your eyes. Through truly successful characters and, perhaps most importantly, a wickedly good metaphysical worldview. It's nice when men dare to put up ambitious theories about the world. It's even nicer when they seem plausible. I'm willing to throw aside my own corrupted Western sense of style for a moment and whack a near-perfect 10 on this tyke. 26 episodes plus an hour long film. A classic! And the best anime I've seen so far. P.S. Can't forget to mention the character of Rei Ayanami, who could be put up as a monolithic style example of a good character in the history of cinema. P.P.S. Nor how endlessly, bottomlessly sexually suggestive Evangelion is. The whole "merging of the souls" theme, with its horrible, insatiable loneliness and the "I am the lowest of the low" masturbation scene at the end, next to the comatose redheaded Asuka sleeping in a hospital bed....

Beyond the Frame Podcast - 1st episode

If you want to experience something that Disco Elysium is definitely inspired by: number one is Neon Genesis Evangelion. […] The eschatology, the reckless take on Christianity, the absolute colossal size of it, and its gestures, and what is just goes and says about humanity and souls and it's truly callosal. It's how I image - the End of Evangelion – it's what I imagine it looks like when world revolution comes - blood shaped crosses exploding in space, human bodies popping like zits to form a unified red ocean of some. Hugely the more apocalyptic, pale side and the larger part of Disco Elysium – which Disco Elysium only shows a very small part of [it].

which of AGSZC sleeps like this and which sees it happen and does anyone believe them

There are precisely three places in the Shinra building where Genesis can read in peace: the emergency stairwell (excellent acoustics for dramatic recitation), the executive bathroom (outstanding lighting), and the SOLDIER break room at 3 pm (perfect couch to window ratio for optimal reading conditions).

Today, he's claimed his usual spot on the weathered leather couch, armed with a cup of tea that cost more than a cadet's monthly salary, with his annotated copy of Loveless (collector's edition, gilt-edged, with margin space specifically designed for his enlightened commentary) and the intention to have a peaceful afternoon.

And there, sprawled across the other end is Sephiroth. Dead to the world, one arm thrown over his face, legs neatly tucked in, because Gaia forbid the man be messy even while unconscious.

Genesis is mid-metaphysical annotation when he hears it.

"Mrrp."

His pen freezes mid-scribble. Surely not.

"Ahhh... pip."

Genesis slowly lowers his book, staring at Sephiroth like he's just announced his retirement to become a chocobo farmer. The most feared man in Wutai is… squeaking. Like a kitten. A very large, leather-clad, mako-soaked kitten with a sword taller than most infantrymen.

A soft "mrrrrrr" followed by what can only be described as a happy little sigh escapes Sephiroth's lips. One foot twitches. His nose scrunches ever so slightly.

This is it, Genesis thinks hysterically. This is how I die. Killed by acute cute aggression.

He tries to return to his reading. He really does. But then Sephiroth makes this utterly content little chirping sound, and Genesis' last remaining brain cell throws itself off the metaphorical plate.

He can't help it. Genesis launches himself across the couch, sobbing, gathering Sephiroth in his arms, tears streaming down his face as he strokes that ridiculous silver hair.

"Look at you," he whispers wetly, utterly destroyed by another tiny chirp. "The most terrifying man on the planet, and you're making kitten noises. This is devastating. This is precious. I'm going to need therapy."

Sephiroth, still dead asleep, just nuzzles closer with a soft "mrrp," completely oblivious to Genesis having an emotional breakdown over his head.

Meanwhile, in the hallway, Zack is on his way to the vending machine when he hears it: the unmistakable sound of Genesis talking to a cat

"—such a precious kitten, aren't you? The cutest little thing!"

Zack's face lights up like a reactor core. They got a break room cat! He's been lobbying for a SOLDIER mascot for months! This is perfect! He can already picture it: a tiny combat-trained kitten in a custom uniform! His heart is racing. Maybe it can ride on his shoulder during missions.

He bursts through the door, beaming. "We got a cat?!?"

The words die in his throat.

There's Genesis, tears still streaming down his face, cradling their supreme commander like an oversized kitty while Sephiroth dozes peacefully in his lap, making tiny chirping noises.

They stare at each other.

Zack shuts the door and pretends it was all a fever dream.

Two weeks later, Sephiroth opens his locker and finds a cozy stuffed cat plushie, and a note that just says:

"You deserve comfort! :D —Z."

Sephiroth stares off into the distance, confused.

👀 please can you elaborate more on the alecto + john gnosticism thing?

Gnosticism is rather a vague term for a broad collection of beliefs over time and space, but the account of cosmology in the text I mentioned - The Apocryphon of John - goes a bit like this:

There's a transcendent, ineffable metaphysical reality (sort of God) called the Monad. This creates an entity called Barbelo (sort of the Holy Spirit, kind of a girl, the first, in a very real way everyone's mother...), and together they create some other powerful beings including Gnostic Jesus (TM) and Sophia (wisdom, also sort of the Holy Spirit, also kind of a girl). Sophia engages in a spot of metaphysical procreation without the Monad's say-so or involvement, leading to the creation of the snazzily named Yaldabaoth. Sophia goes 'whoops, my bad' and shoves Yaldabaoth under the metaphysical sofa, hiding him and causing him to be unaware of the broader spiritual reality above him.

Yaldabaoth creates a whole bunch of entities called Archons, who are basically the demonic rulers of the planets of the solar system, and then declares himself God. (Yeah...)

At this juncture, it all starts to get a bit weird with Genesis and salvation and gender, but the general gist is that humans and sex are invented (this made a lot of people angry and has widely been considered as a bad move), and humanity lives in spiritual darkness, believing that Yaldabaoth is God when akshually to be saved you need to pass through the waters that separate the tomb of the body and the material realm from the higher reality to find the truth, etc. etc. (you can see how all this leads to everything from bad sci fi to worse opinions about the Hebrew Bible...).

I hope this sheds some light on what I mean when I say that there's something rather gnostic about what's going on with John and Alecto: John as an entity created not entirely on purpose, unaware of the greater reality beyond him, creating powerful entities to rule the planets and declaring himself the god of a people he tries to prevent from understanding the truth that's on the other side of some kind of metaphysical body of water. And Alecto as some kind of complicatedly female-assigned quasi-divine aspect whose nature and culpability is uncertain and who unwittingly is involved in the creation of the Guy Who Fucks It All Up.

To be clear: I don't think Tamsyn Muir is attempting any kind of step by step engagement with a text like this (and there are a lot of weird gnostic texts), nor do I think the end game of the series is going to be worked out in straightforwardly 'gnostic' terms. But it feels like it's in the worldbuilding sandbox, along with the canon Bible and classical myth and Homestuck and Tumblr memes.

Illegitimate Thought: Deleuze’s Ontology of Creative Rupture

In Difference and Repetition, Gilles Deleuze does not merely challenge the history of philosophy—he overturns its foundational presuppositions, initiating a project in which the very conditions of thinking are rethought from within a field of immanence and generativity. Among the constellation of incisive formulations that emerge throughout the work, none captures this insurgent ambition more…

[nyxseclipses]

Awareness, Observation and Identification 

What began as Law of Assumption has, through time and echoed words disconnected from source material, demonstrated itself in some circles to be a threshold rather than a terminus. Neville Goddard taught beyond “assumptions create reality," especially in later years, and this is an offering to rectify and expand.

If one traces back the function and genesis of assumption, belief, identity, vibration, intention, et cetera, they are invariably found to be not originary forces, but derivatives—expressions within a medium that preexists and underpins them all: Awareness.

Indeed, assumptions may give shape to reality, but imagination itself is boundless—suggesting a realm wherein assumptions are not required at all. They are not the final word, merely a single dialect in the vast language of experience. Reality is not fixed; it is clay in the hands of the aware, pliable even in its so-called laws. The world you see—this third-dimensional echo—is but the mirror of what stirs in the unseen. Alter the formless, and the formed must follow. It is, irrevocably, infinite.

What if manifestation does not require assumption of having or truth, but rather simple awareness placed on the outcome?

This does not presume to offer finality, only a candle in a crypt of Awareness—an alternative route.

TL;DR: Awareness is a foundational substrate. 

 It is not the servant of thought or the echo of belief; it is not a derivative mechanism. You (as pure Awareness, the awake observer, consciousness, et cetera) needn’t assume or believe or embody.  You need only withdrawal and become Aware. Withdraw from the undesired, and place your self gently upon the desired. 

Awareness is the marrow that fills the bones of assumptions held within a particular body of consciousness.

You (Awareness and Consciousness, Awareness within Consciousness) are the base mode of causality. 

In acts of shifting, manifesting, lucid dreaming, and astral projection alike, it is not the assumed state that bears fruit---it is the soil of Awareness from which such states spring. Assumptions are not architects. They are afterimages. 

What if what has often been delineated as “Law of Assumption,” “Law of Attraction,” or other metaphysical constructs and their ilk are not sovereign truths, but the ornamental ceilings of an older cathedral, epiphenomena—arising within the broader field of observed Awareness?

That is not to say any of the aforementioned are in any way incorrect, as any statement just is in its potentiality, but rather that there will always be more to say.

Belief, for example, doesn’t generate Awareness; Awareness generates the illusion of belief; belief is just a consistent pattern of reflection given merit—a loyal dog, yes, but never the master. Faith, in the same breath, would potentially be merit given beyond proof. To clarify, Awareness, in this context, is not to be conflated with attention or thought, which are directional and transitory.

Awareness isn’t the beam of a lantern lighting up your desires, it is the space in which both arise. It’s silence—capable of holding most any sound. It is just you under the noise.

Therefore, If one seeks to transfigure experience—to leap across dimensions, to whisper themselves into new flesh, to unmoor from the ordinary or any other phenomenon wherein the experienced world appears to alter in accordance with internal focus—one must begin not with what is assumed, but with where You as a whole are: here, now—zooming out, away from individual assumptions, identities, “truths,” et cetera.

One must begin not with having the desire, but with orientation of self.

Not with assumption, but to step back from the fresco and see the full agglomeration of the brushstrokes that make up You and your “I am,” i.e. Awareness.

Awareness, when fixed, does not manipulate reality by force or belief. It is not an alchemist in the traditional sense; it does not manipulate matter by imposition. It rearranges by quiet exodus; it reorganizes preconceived structure through perceived proximity.

What is dismissed from Awareness becomes ephemeral—dissolving not from existence, but from perceptual availability, not gone, merely unreachable. In this regard, manifestation/being is not an act of bringing into being, but an act of selective perception—a filtering.

Manifestation is not summoning, it is subtraction of want and permitting the space for desires to reveal and bring themselves forth.

If Awareness still orients itself around lack (even subtly—the urge to influence and conjure rather than simple witness), then that’s what reflects—an echo of separation returned. Should Awareness remain anchored to absence—even beneath the fine silks of affirmations and visualizations—that absence is mirrored back.

It’s not the surface gestures of thoughts, affirmations, assumptions, visualizations, or incantations alone that conjure experience—it’s the directional resting place of Awareness. Reflection responds to your posture.

To dwell as Awareness, before its movement. To step back from the fresco of reality and behold its architecture in full. From this still vantage, one no longer acts to affect, but sees—truly sees—what is, and through that seeing, reality reshapes itself.

Action becomes unnecessary. Perception becomes law.

Conscious Awareness is the one thing that encompasses assumption and reflection, attraction and vibration, and so on with other established “laws of the universe” and their effects—they are all functions within Conscious Awareness (your self), shaped and perceived according to where your Awareness as the observer is placed.

Are these “laws” fixed truths, or are they merely habitual patterns stabilized by collective Awareness? Might we say that belief in a specific metaphysical law anchors one’s Awareness within a corresponding experiential framework? Just as social norms stabilize group behavior, metaphysical laws may stabilize perception within collective fields. To transcend them is simply to stop consenting through Awareness.

If Awareness becomes the foundational basis, then all identities—even the identity of “manifestor” or “shifter” or “I am ____”—are all objects within the Awareness of “I am.”

All identity is mask work—forms resting on the surface of a deeper silence.

The void—that blank and holy tabula rasa wherein all desire takes immediate shape—is not a destination, but a recognition. It is the reflection of “I am,” freedom from the previous orchestration of assumptions and experiences. It is Awareness recognizing itself.

When Awareness enters the void-state or “goes to” the void, you aren’t going anywhere, you’re simply shedding everything that you temporarily believed you were, remembering that you are Awareness in which all things arise, and thus, never lacking.

One does not go to the void. One sheds all else. In the act of remembering one’s true nature—the unadorned Awareness—the veil lifts. And in that lifting, nothing is absent, everything present in potentiality.

The void and void-state serves as the ideal exemplification of Awareness at rest in its purest form. Within it, Awareness is no longer fixated upon a self, object, or desire. It becomes self-reflexive: aware only of its own nature.

This “blank,” and potent condition allows for effortless emergence. One needn’t construct reality through cognitive effort, because Awareness, in its default generative capacity, reflects whatever is placed before it. This accounts for the commonly reported phenomena of spontaneous materialization and instantaneous shifting when in or emerging from the void.

Hence, shifting and manifesting occur not through strain, but through the release of directional force. The more one reaches, the farther it slips. This is the doctrine of least effort; this is Neville’s grace: attention minus effort.

The implication of this would be that because Awareness transcends conceptions of linear time, manifestation and shifting is not about “bringing the desires to you,” it’s collapsing of the illusion of sequence entirely through a mere shift in perspective.

Not through purposeful attempts of assuming, but as a byproduct of having shifted your Awareness, and having stepped from one chamber to another.

The version of you that experiences your desire already exists in the eternal present—and by resting Awareness (your self) here, you collapse into it.

Turn Awareness here. Feed the hunger of desire until you are full. That is all.

Conscious Awareness can hold something without belief, assumption, certainty, et cetera., it simply just sees and observes.

All these things are effects of placed Awareness, not causes—they are the scaffolds that hold Awareness in place long enough for the architecture to emerge, should one so need it. They still the hand that shakes. They anchor the observer.

Belief is not required. Certainty is not required, Awareness functions in silence. It need not proclaim what it perceives to make it real. If it rests long enough and pointed enough upon a form, that form takes substance. Whether it be manifesting (shifts within the current framework), shifting (surpassing the current framework entirely), astral projection, or lucid dreaming, they all rely on placed/directed Awareness (self).

Furthermore, contrary to popular systems that emphasize belief intensity or emotional conviction, Awareness does not require belief or emotion to function. Belief and emotion are byproducts—sometimes helpful, sometimes irrelevant. One may be fully aware of a possibility without believing in it or assuming it’s received, and still, if Awareness rests there consistently, that probability will begin to crystalize.

These "laws" so adored—assumption, attraction, vibration—are not absolute. They are epicycles in the greater motion of Awareness.

Thought does not shape the world. Awareness births thought. Assumption alters nothing unless Awareness consents to linger.

Techniques like affirmations, repetition, or utilizing emotions may be found as successful pathways to the materialization of desires, not because they “cause” manifestation, but because they stabilize Awareness (your self) long enough for “full” reflection of desire to occur. They provide enough distance from desiring and enough proximity to being.

In conclusion, the so-called “laws” that govern metaphysical cause-and-effect are in actuality nested systems within Awareness as a whole. It is not thoughts that shape reality, or assumptions, or states of being, but the placement of Awareness (your self) from which thought arises.

It is not assumption that alters the world, but the Awareness that sustains the assumptions and assumed state.

This shift in framing isn’t semantic; it is ontological. It reframes you not as a doer or a believer or a prisoner, but as an orienteer of perception. Is the self not a creator, but a navigator of infinite paths—each path reflecting a stable field of Awareness? Moreso a tuner than a builder of reality? Are we not creators then, but cartographers of possibility? Is the self not an engine of reality, but a compass?

So perhaps it was never about becoming the desired version of you. Perhaps it was always about gazing upon that version and it's subsequent effects. Awareness needn't scream its name. You need only see it. Hold it gently.

People may affirm and visualize and assume and remember, but if the full-picture Awareness still orients itself around lack (even as subtly as doing something to "try and get") then that’s what reflects. If Awareness dances briefly over the desired, but settles upon absence, then absence shall become your mirror. Stillness, knowing, peace, freedom, gratuity—these are signs that Awareness has landed. The spell has taken root.

What if no effort is necessary—only orientation.

No “willing” into being, just simply becoming aware of what already exists as a desired possibility and observation thereof.

What if reality becomes reflected to the degree pertained by the amount of Awareness placed, and that's why repetition, imagination, and inner stillness work—not because they “impress” the subconscious, but because they stabilize Awareness in a new orbit.

The longer you observe, the more form appears.

What if nothing needs to be done? What if all that is asked of you is to look—truly look—at what already is? To hold it within Awareness (your self) as one holds a flickering candle in a crypt, until the shadows around it shift.

What if matter is not summoned, but coagulated through Awareness? What if the world forms itself in response to the patience of your gaze?

Then let us stop conjuring, and begin beholding.

Taxon Genesis Evangelion 1: Angels and Evas, Oh My

Below the cut: The morphological taxonomicon of Angels and Evangelions; Lilim; and maybe a little something extra for you. All this and more on Taxon Genesis Evangelion!

(If you want to get right to the taxonomizin', skip ahead to the big bold ANGELS header.) The beings known as the Angels present a remarkable challenge to the taxonomist. They are comparatively straightforward to actually categorize on morphological grounds - several families being readily discernible - but are metaphysically provocative. Where the Messenger's Earths present an extremely close divergence from the Mainline Anthropic Cluster of worlds in most respects, they differ strongly on two key points:

The origins of human life;

The function and purpose of the human soul.

The Angels sit at the nexus of these two divergences. The Angel, if local accounts are correct, is essentially a human being that has undergone extreme morphological divergence based on the expression of a distinct pattern in its soul. This divergence is made all the more stark by the existence of multiple overlapping-but-distinct Messenger's Earths, constituting their own parallel Anthropic Cluster of universes tentatively designated as the 'Anno Cluster'.

This is well and good, but where does it leave us taxonomically? The Temple is divided, but tentatively advances the following schema from a strictly morphological perspective:

FIGURE 1: An initial sketch towards a morphological taxa of Seed-derived Life.

All members of this phylum constitute what is locally called a 'Human', though the Temple does not endorse this usage. We instead suggest the use of 'Person', which appears to us to clarify the issue significantly - the Human being referred to the local equivalent of Homo sapiens, while the Person constituting both this species and its many cousins. However, even this convenience can take us only so far, as the persons referred to as Angels are reportedly '99.89%' similar to humans on a genetic level, rendering them no different genetically from a given human than a given homo sapiens is to another homo sapiens.

This, however, is further complicated by the origins of human life within the Anno Cluster's Messenger's Earths - that is, they are panspermic products with an ambiguous relationship to the rest of their biospheres. It is not, at the time of writing, clear whether all Earthly life in the Anno Cluster shares descent from the being known as Lilith, and the Temple tentatively endorses the position that they do not, and that only humans do.

This being the case, it is clear that the local equivalent of Homo sapiens is not quite a conventional example of Homo sapiens. From this specimen we will begin our taxonomy.

LILIM HUMANS

FIGURE 2: Three typical Lilim Humans, the anthropoform inhabitants of the Messenger's Earths of the Anno Cluster. Observe the identical appearance to mainline Homo sapiens, which conceals a radically different evolutionary history.

The Lilim Human is, phenotypically and morphologically, identical to Homo sapiens. This is a case of the common convergent meta-clade of beings called, across universes, 'Humans'. It is a well known principle of universe exploration that along the anthropophilic curve, humans of some variety are a near certainty in every universe, though their precise origins varies. Most, but not all, are Sol-Terranidae - that is, the locational miridomain of [Carbonae] specific to the world(s) of Earth - and have little, if anything, to distinguish them on a purely biological basis from one another.

Given this, we now introduce the mythotaxon utilized for the base, mainline, prolific human: metanthropos generica humanitas. We have previously introduced this elsewhere, in the Taxonomy of the Homeworlds, but find it still a useful category. The corresponding niche taxa is Homo sapiens protagonum.

These two taxa are shared with the vast majority of humans across the Anthropic Cluster worlds. The specific taxa of the Lilim Human, however, is distinct. We observe that they are the direct product of panspermic interference in Earthly life, introduced by Lilith and gifted the Fruit of Knowledge. This origin bears certain cognates in traditional Earthling mythologies and their reflections in other Universes, but it will in turn bear consideration on this first of the 'two fruits' of the Anno Cluster before we formally taxonomize the Lilim Human.

The first fruit, the Fruit of Knowledge, conveys upon the human being the ability to produce itself ad infinitum and, consequently, to know oneself through the eyes of others. This knowledge-of-the-self produces a fixed phenotypical expression and self-awareness along the norms of the reflected metanthropos generica humanitas, including normal cognition - barring a certain innate suicidal tendency in the inevitability of Lilim Humans seeking species-level extinction as part of its drive towards the future, though this has also been suggested as a standard feature of all human kinds (see Spielrein, 'Die Destruktion als Ursache des Werdens', 1912) - and tool use.

We also observe that the existence of the Human Soul is uncontroversial within the Messenger's Earth as a physical reality. This, then, presents a second divergence point from common mainline m.g. humanitas, for whom the existence of the soul is rarely a physical reality even where it is possessed as a spiritual self. The soul is, allegedly, the source of that which produces the barrier between selves and enables the creation of the self's form. No non-Person has been observed to possess a soul in these universes, and they are, to a degree, transferrable and controllable.

This suggests that the Lilim Human is sufficiently differentiated from the mainline to warrant a distinct mythotaxon, as: metanthropos generica sapiens anima-carnogenesis That is, they are generic humans marked out by their possession of a soul that produces the flesh.

Hierarchically, we consider there to be insufficient evidence to warrant a distinct taxa for the Lilim Human, though we acknowledge that the Lilim Human shares no genetic ancestry with other members of the genus Homo. To the extent such a taxa is desirable, it is best recorded as phylogenetic rather than strictly hierarchical - the key difference being that the Temple endorses the hierarchical taxa as clade-ambivalent.

ANGELS

FIGURE 3: A selection of Angels.

The persons known as the Angels are, according to local reports, Human beings who exhibit the many 'alternative' forms that a Human being might possess. We reiterate that the Temple prefers the language of Person to Human for this purpose, as it prevents confusion, though we acknowledge that in the context of the Messenger's Earths the close genetic make up, shared presence of not-incompatible souls, and shared cladistic origins do suggest that 'Human' is not an entirely inappropriate designation for the Angels. However, for the purposes of the Universal Taxonomy, we decline to nominate the Angels as members of the genus Homo.

We do so for two reasons. First, it the morphology of the Angels is wildly divergent from that of their human cousins. While they are nearly identical to any given human genome, the phenotypical expression produced by the nature of their souls - shaped in due turn by the Fruit of Life - is clearly non-human. It is also unclear whether the Angels are capable of reproduction as Lilim Humans are, though the Temple's various factions have largely agreed to waive reproductive viability for the present taxonomization due to the clear morphological patterns within the Angels.

Second, the Angels possess an entirely distinct biology from the Human on a more fundamental level. While they are genetically near identical, they are composed of an alternative form of matter. This, as we understand it, is the product of their receipt of the 'Fruit of Life', which grants the recipient utter self reliance in the form of a removal from the laws of thermodynamics and a source of free energy embedded within what is known as the 'core' of the Angel. They thus bear little functional resemblance to the Lilim Humans with which they are so closely related on a genetic level.

This, then, is the basis for proceeding with treating the Human as distinct from the other Peoples, and taxonomizing the Angels seperately. To that end, we now consider these entities collectively, with specific studies to follow. The Angels are:

Material entities, even where this materiality is comprised of pure energy.

Despite seemingly god-like stature and powers, not of divine nature, but mundane nature.

Alive.

This suggests that all the People, including both Angels and Human, are properly considered to be members of the Vitus and Corporae - that is, they are alive and are corporeal. It is clear that the majority of the Peoples, including most Angels, belong to the Eukaryota and, presumably, the Animalia as complex, multi-cellular life. For convenience's sake, we will nominate the Angels (but not Lilim Humans) as members of a Phase-Wave Phylum, Undamaterialida, though it may equally be suggested that this is best positioned at a higher level below the Corporae but above the Eukarya. But beyond these initial assumptions, a morphological taxonomy appears to be the best approach.

(We might also take the easier approach of assigning a wholly novel superdomain to all Peoples and Angels, but this - though taxonomically simple and not displeasing in its elegance - is something of a lazy tack. If the Angels bore more resemblance to cognate species of demon, angel, and magical being, we would not face this challenge as suitable phyla are already prepared for such specimens.)

Within this morphological study, we can observe certain patterns. First, there is a high order distinction among Peoples between those with clear, discrete and identifiable Cores and those that either lack clear cores or appear to have no core whatsoever.

FIGURE 4: The 'Core' of an Evangelion.

In the former we may group most of the Angels, and in the latter, Lilim Humans and the pseudo-bacterial Angels. These we will treat as our classes for the Peoples, and we will tentatively nominate the former Koukyuuvasiae and the latter Akoukyuuvasiae.

THE KOUKYUUVASIAE

Within the former, we are confronted with a dizzying array of datapoints. This is the class of Shamshel and Ramiel and Arael - it is highly diverse in morphology, and identifying the most relevant is difficult. Nonetheless, the Pedant nominates bodily plan as being the next stage. Those Koukyuuvasiae that manifest a hominid-esque bodily plan (and thus, most closely resemble their precursor Seeds of Life, on which we will touch soon) constitute an Order, as do those with a pseudo-arthropodic form and those with what we nominate as 'weird' forms. These three orders we thus nominate as, in the same order previously mentioned: Adamiformes - 'Shaped like Adam'; Thyreoformes - 'Shaped like Shields'; Abstractoformes - 'Shaped like Abstractions'.

The Adamiformes

Within the Adamiformes, we find two families. The first is capable of moderate morphological transformation, comprising Sachiel, Israfel, and controversially, the Eighth Angel. (It is the Pedant's position that the manifestation of an essentially humanoid body at the heart of the Angel's mass is indicative of membership within the Adamiformes.) The latter is incapable, and consists of two members - Zereul, and one outlier we will return to later.

FIGURE 5: The Angel known as Zereul.

Zereul should be distinguished from the similar Tenth Angel, which in its version of the Messenger's Earth takes the same mythological niche as Zereul but which is morphologically distinct, as it lacks the legs of Zereul and manifests certain features from the Thyreoformes instead. No such distinction is present between Sachiel and its counterpart, which we take as indicative of a point discussed in the assessment of the Adams and the Seeds.

We nominate these two families thus: Proteadamiformidae - those capable of changing shape; Fixusadamiformidae - those not capable.

The latter consists of a pair of genera, one of which we will revisit. Zereul is the sole species of the genus Annotokuhostilis as A. sardonicabrutalis, presenting our first complete taxa. We further nominate Zereul with the following niche and mythotaxa, which it shares with its counterpart, the Tenth Angel: Gargantua aforitoanankus flagellator Gargantuahostilis pseudotokuvillainus catharsisogenitor

The Proteadamiformidae consists of two genera. The first is another single-species genus, Stellahostilis, with the Eighth Angel as the sole member, S. evangelocadens. S. evangelocadens is given the following niche and mythotaxa, which it again shares with its counterpart, Sahaquiel: Gargantua astrumamoeba oculariforme Gargantuahostilis astrainvadans eschatogenitor

FIGURE 6: The angel known as Sachiel, L. monohastatus.

The second may be distinguished by its ability - common, but not universal, among Angels - to project energy blasts. An alternative taxonomy might consider this in place of the body plan morphology as the Class-level characteristic, but we believe it may spontaneously re-emerge among Peoples as part of their shared heritage and so constitutes a homoplasious characteristic. This genus consists of Sachiel and Israfel, neither of which require much special analysis. We nominate the genus as Luxohastati and their species, respectively, as L. monohastatus and L. geminohastatus. Both share mythotaxa as Gargantuahostilis pseudotokuvillainus generica, but their niche taxa differ, with Sachiel placed as Gargantua megahominidae autocidus, and Israfel as Gargantua metahominidae synchronita.

FIGURE 7: A character map of the Adamiformes, with appended species taxa.

The Thyreoformes

The next major grouping are the Thyreoformes - the Shield Angels. This Order is comparatively stable morphologically and consists of four species split across three genera, distinguished into two families, all of which resemble arthropods. The first of these is the Paleothyreoformidae and the second is the Neothyreoformidae. Unlike most of the Angels, the distinction here appears to be reality-based - we observe the Paleothyreformidae in one reality, and the Neothyreoformidae in a new one, with one cross-over taxa that appears in a morphologically distinct subspecies in both.

Within the Paleothyreformidae, there are two monospecies genera.

The first of these hosts Matarael, a four-legged pseudo-arachnid marked by its ability to spit acid from its ventral eye tearducts and its extremely weak AT field. Curiously, Matarael is adorned with many ornamental eyes that closely resemble Sahaqiuel, and while it is currently understood to possess a core, it is possible that this is not the case. We consider this possibility further elsewhere, in the discussion of Seeds. Matarael is nominated as: Acolytaphalangidus vitriolainfirmus With the niche and mythotaxa of: Gargantua opilionis demipoda Gargantuahostilis monstrumaseptimana oblituses

The second is the equally forgettable Sandalphon, characterized by a curious embryonic cycle that feature an early, Adam-resembling state that recedes into a curious arthropodal arrangement on hatching. When we recollect that the Adams appear to maintain an essentially humanoid bodily plan and that it is the nature of an Angel's soul that shapes their appearance, this seems suggestive that all Angels begin as essentially humanoid and then choose their shape - a property that, taken to its logical extent, suggests there is no actual speciation involved. In such a case, all Angels might simply be taxonomized as Annoangelus annoacolytus, but we will continue our morphological taxonomy because it pleases us to do so. We nominate the following taxa for Sandalphon: Infernatolerans anthroapobolus Gargantua pyromagmataincola paleogreebly Gargantuahostilis monstrumaseptimana oblituses, shared with Matarael.

The third genera, and the sole genus of the Neothyreformidae hosts two species, both characterized by a hardened shell-like carapace, weaponized flagella, and a prominent internal rib structure. This genera, the Costanovis, hosts the Tenth Angel, an analogue of Zereul, and the paired subspecies of the Fifth Angel and Shamshel.

FIGURE 8: The Fifth Angel, C. phallovermis costaexposita.

Shamsel is one of the stranger Angels. This distinctly phallic - and phallic anxiety provoking - entity is characterized by a prominent shelled cephalic segment and an unarmoured body containing the characteristically unusual internal rib structure of the genus. In both cases, these ribs are present - in the Fifth Angel, the ribs are motile and exposed, while in Shamshel they are covered in flesh and static. Both angels utilize energized flagella. They are nominated together as: C. phallovermis, with subspecies costaexposita and costainternus Gargantua phallocorpus Gargantuahostilis monstrumaseptimana castratiometis

The Tenth Angel is easily confused with Zereul, its cognate expression. Both are skull-faced, seemingly intelligent (and malicious) beings that share razor-sharp flagella and a general bodily shape. However, they differ in the absence of legs from the Tenth Angel, distinct colouration, and a highly divergent internal arrangement of the Tenth Angel, which unlike Zereul, is capable of 'unfolding' itself to expose an internal rib cage and an extendible digestive system and jaw structure. The Tenth Angel is a more robust and, in many respects, considerably more horrific counterpart speciment to Zereul. We nominate it as: C. evangelophagus With niche and mythotaxa shared with Zereul as: Gargantua aforitoanankus flagellator Gargantuahostilis pseudotokuvillainus catharsisogenitor

FIGURE 9: Character mapping of the Thyreoformes.

The Abstractoformes

Moving back from the Thyreoformes, two categories remain among the Core-bearing Peoples. The largest are the Abstractoformes, or those Angels with forms best considered abstract in nature. The smaller is a single species order - though we suspect that the 'Third Angel' most likely shared an original morphology with it - of pseudo-Cetacean, and we will briefly dispense with it.

This single species order, the Acolytacetaceaformes, consists also of a single known family, the Acolytacetaceaformidae, and its type species, Gaghiel, is nominated as: Nataramawus dentata Gargantua pesudocetacea anno Gargantuahostilis monstrumaseptimana dentatacetus

Perhaps the most interesting feature of N. dentata is the presence of the ubiquitous 'skull face' on its dorsal surface. This feature is shared with Sachiel, the Ninth Angel, Zereul and the Tenth Angel, the Seventh Angel, and in highly modified form, the first form of Israfel, but is otherwise absent among the Angels. If this feature is not homoplasious - like the energy weapons common to Angels and present among all but one of the skull-bearers - it may indicate that these Angels constitute a distinct morphological family within the Koukyuuvasiae, and as we will explore in the section on Seeds, potentially a distinct Adamic lineage.

The last remaining category of Koukyuuvasiae are the Abstractoformes. Within this Order, we may identify two families, each consisting of a pair of so-far singular genera a single species each. They are the Astroincolidae, or star-dwellers, and the Energetoiactidae, or energy-throwers. The former consists of the Angels known as Arael and Sahaquiel, and the latter, Ramiel and the Seventh Angel.

The core of Arael is somewhat ambiguous, and it has been suggested they should instead be placed among the coreless Angels. Such a reorganization would suggest a closer association with the Angels Leliel and Armisael, as all three are known to possess a level of intelligent interest in human minds. However, there is evidence of a strongly organized core within Arael and so at the present time we decline to do so. It is the sole specimen of the genus Psycheraptor, and is nominated as: P. pravidoaviluxa Gargantua astrumaves lumenoaves Gargantuahostilis astrainvadans traumataregenarares Arael may also be better classified as belonging to the Energy Beings superdomain, but this is so far unproven.

FIGURE 10: The Angel Sahaquiel, or O. autoprecipitaro.

Its sibling, Sahaquiel, is quite unlike Arael. It possesses a body of definite matter rather than of light, and lacks the intelligent interest in human minds known of Arael and co. It instead seems to be a rather curious 'giant eye' that seeks death, sharing in its patterning with Matarael and the Eighth Angel. We nominate it as: Oculudeioanno autoprecipitaro And its niche and mythotaxa, shared with the Eighth Angel, as: Gargantua astrumamoeba oculariforme Gargantuahostilis astrainvadans eschatogenitor

The second family, the Energetoiactidae, is most synonymous with Ramiel, whose counterpart Sixth Angel is not meaningfully distinguishable, suggesting a point of common morphological priority between Adams. Ramiel is best understood as a form of hyper-energetic polyhedral life, characterized by an extremely high intensity AT field. It has been suggested, though it remains unproven, that the sheer force of this AT field is responsible for the Angel's primary octahedral form, creating it as a sort of physical incarnation of the platonic solid of the same shape. Such a model would identify Ramiel with Mercury, and in its secondary forms and their rapid transformation, this appears satisfactory. We nominate the following taxa accordingly: Apostoloplatoniformum mercurohedron Abstractiformes platoniforms octohedrones laserus Gargantuahostilis octusalea empathogenitrix

FIGURE 11: The Seventh Angel, commonly known as 'Clockiel'. Observe the absence of anything resembling a conventional body plan and the curiously industrial appearance of this Angel. The Core is concealed in the large pendulum.

The other member, the Seventh Angel, is rather more difficult to parse morphologically. The closest analogue seems to us to be the stick insects, but even this is a far cry. All that we may say confidently of the Seventh Angel is that it possesses a core, energetic weaponry, and the characteristic 'skull face' of certain Angel lines. It appears to consist of loosely assembled skeletal tetrahedral segments, and but for the strongly demarcated core, might otherwise be better placed among the communal morphologies. Faced with such a bizarre entity, we nonetheless offer a tentative taxonomy as: Horaeacolytus mendaxocephalus Gargantua mekanikavitus fauxclockusfacus Gargantuahostilis monstrumaseptimana horaemookus

The Abstractoformes clade is, perhaps, best recognized as a convenience. We are entirely prepared to accept that it ought to be split further, but have refrained from doing so due to the risk of taxonomic inflation.

FIGURE 12: The Abstractoformes clade of Angel morphology, with special guest Gaghiel. Note the absence of unifying characteristics.

Two more specimens bear consideration before we move on to the Coreless Class of Angels - the Third and Twelfth Angels. Very little is known of these Angels, save that they bear a core. The Third bore a skeleton at one point and retains energetic weaponry, while the Twelfth may be a collective entity or may simply have been altered by an aborted Instrumentality. In both cases, lacking in sufficient information, we can offer no taxa.

THE AKOUKYUUVASIAE

We turn now to the other major category of Angel, the Akoukyuuvasiae, or the Angels that do not host cores. This subgroup of Angels presents certain analytical challenges not present among the other Angels. First, lacking in a Core, can they be meaningfuly said to be of the same category of life as their counterparts? Second, do they stem from the same source?

We can offer only a partial answer to these questions. On the first, they are treated as the same by the local People, which we defer to as a matter of informational privilege of local traditions in the face of ambiguity. On the second, we conjecture that they do, but not necessarily in the manner usually assumed. See the discussion later of the Seeds for more detail.

These caveats aside, we may divide the coreless into two Orders - the Lilithiformes, comprising Lilim Humans and two special specimens, and the Acolytanoviformes, or 'Acolytes of Novel Form'. We have previously discussed the Lilim and will not repeat ourselves here, and so turn immediately to the Acolytanoviformes. Within this Order, we find two Families:

The pseudo-prokaryotes, consisting of Bardiel and sister species, the Ninth Angel, and Ireul, which we nominate as Acolytanovaprokaryotidae;

The amorphous and energy-based Angels Leliel and Armisael, whose Family we nominate as Evangeloamorphidae.

Among the Acolytanovaprokaryotidae, we may distinguish between two genera. The first is that of Bardiel and the Ninth Angel, which appear to be subspecies of the same morphological 'species' expression. Both are microscopic entities capable of forming into colonies with no apparent core that, given access to an Evangelion or presumably Angel, are capable of seizing control over the body. In this sense, they appear to be a parasitic colonial organism. We nominate them with the following taxa: Evangeloraptis anthropocontaminans Funga macrocolonialis mentalocomprimisor Microscopa hostilis friendkiller

Ireul, the other member of the Family, is perhaps the strangest Angel. It, with Israfel, constitutes the only known case of a 'plural' Angel - one that inhabits many forms - other than the Lilim, the Human-analogue of the Anno Cluster. Unlike Israfel, it demonstrated a clear capacity for tool use and complex planning.

This suggests the possibility that Ireul, unlike the majority of other Angels, may not in fact have been the recipient of the Fruit of Life rather than the Fruit of Knowledge. When we compare it to the sole other known example of such a recipient, we find in both cases: A distributed existence with no clear, singular core; Tool use and apparent complex planning abilities; Relatively rapid adaptation to complex environments based on cognition; An AT field that is physically distinct from that of the other Angels in either shape or colour; Suicidal tendencies as a result of its own cognition.

That other exemplar is, of course, the Lilim. The last point bears a brief explanatory note. The known end state of the Human being in most worlds of the Anno Cluster is 'Human Instrumentality', in which a portion of the species rejects individuality in the pursuit of self-annihilation and reunion with the whole as a gestalt entity. This produces an omnicidal event that may or may not include non-human life under its ambit (c.f. Ikuto's divergent 'Anima Universe', in which non-human life is explicitly preserved as part of the broader program of Instrumentality) but which results in temporary human extinction. The ability to conceive of, and pursue, Instrumentality is born of human cognition and emotional capacity, and so we may reasonably speak of a suicidal cognitive bias within the Lilim variant of the broad Human cluster - one shared by Ireul.

These peculiarities aside, we tentatively nominate Ireul as: Metalloincolacolyta ireula With the niche and mythotaxa: Teknovirales hyperintelligentsia anno Macrobacteria fauxandromeda ireul

FIGURE 12: The Angel Leliel, or D. dysthymica.

The Evangeloamorphidae consist of two genera, each with a single known species that share a curiousity around Human minds. The first, the Diracidae, harbours the curious Angel 'Leliel', who exists in an extradimensional pocket realm capable of projecting shadows into its mainline physical reality. Leliel's core is not known to physically exist, though it may exist in this extraplanar dimension - in which case, it should be considered Koukyuuvasiae. We nominate Leliel as: D. dysthymica Hostilotenebra portalotenebra dysthymia Mentallometaphorus depressiocatharsogenitor

The other, Heliconoapostolus, consists of Armisael alone, an Angel that consists of a glowing strand of light that, when not engaged in hunting or contact behaviour, hovers in the form of a double helix. Armisael has no apparent core, attempts to rebirth other Angels, and behaves in a most unorthodox manner. The three Angels known to pursue Human mental contact appear to create a curious triad of sexual imagery - Leliel functioning as Egg and Womb, Armisael as physically penetrative Phallus and Sperm, and Arael as a metaphorical act of rape through forcible mental connection - that may be indicative of a shared lineage of the Soul predicated on attempting to fuse with others. This speculation aside, we nominate Armisael as: H. phalloplasmida Abstractiformes plasmidium sexualis Mentallometaphorus libidometaphora anno

FIGURE 13: The Akoukyuuvasiae clade of Angel morphology.

This, then, is the scope of known Angel morphology, though it is possible that additional Messenger's Earths exist that may require taxonomization. [Read: If you want me to tackle the other, weirder angels - Diemay's angel and so on - ask. This was already too long.] But the Angels and Lilim Humans are not the end of the matter.

Special Subjects: Rei and Kaworu

Having previously spoken of the impact of souls on determining morphology of the Angel, we now turn to two curious specimens: the children known as 'Ayanami Rei' and 'Nagisa Kaworu', who are phenotypically relatively normal (pseudo-albinism excepted) clone-body Lilim Humans possessed of the 'salvaged souls' of two Seeds of Life. Neither subject possesses a known Angel-like Core, though they are capable of manifesting AT fields considerably stronger than those of ordinary humans.

FIGURE 14: Ayanami Rei and Kaworu Nagisa.

It has been suggested that the reason Rei and Kaworu maintain an essentially human morphology - barring certain highly specific events that produce a rapid fusion of them with an extant Seed's body - is that they are 'bound' into Lilim Human form. This idea is not without merit, but we consider it to perhaps be overlooking an equally likely explanation. The basic genetic material of the Angels, and by extension, the Seeds, is human. The bodily plan of all known Seeds is essentially hominid. It follows that the range of morphological expressions of the souls attached to these Seeds is already inclined towards human or human-adjacent forms, and that these forms are perhaps less 'imposed' than 'suggested' to the Soul regardless of the morphological limitations of Lilim Human genetic expression.

This being the case, we find no basis to speciate Rei and Kaworu as non-Lilim Human beings on either the morphological or phylogenetic level. A tentative mythotaxa is provided, however: Metanthropos avatarika annospermae

However, Rei and Kaworu are not the only beings that are the products of Lilim Human cloning and soul experimentation. We now turn to the elephants in the room - the Evangelions.

EVANGELIONS

FIGURE 15: A selection of Evangelions.

An Evangelion, from our study of the Messenger's Earths, is one of three things:

A clone of an Adam - the case in the older Messenger's Earth for most Evangelions - containing a transplanted human Soul;

A clone of Lilith, though we submit that Lilith is not meaningfully distinct from an Adam;

An Adam itself, reshaped.

In all three cases, an Evangelion appears to be a replica Seed that reproduces the genetics of that Seed and an essentially human, but greatly enlarged, morphology (barring minor abnormalities in facial arrangement.) As the products of Seed cloning, it is notable that all known Evangelions possess cores, including Unit-01, which in the earlier Messenger's Earth is the product of cloning Lilith rather than an Adam. We will return to that point shortly when discussing the Seeds, but for now, we note it as a morphological constant.

The Evangelions, we suggest, represent the 'default state' of Seed-derived life. It is clear that their morphology is not produced by a resident Soul, as they retain this morphology prior to the introduction of one to their Core. However, it is also clear that they are altered by human engineering towards a specific bodily plan, and accordingly, we offer them the following taxa as members of the Koukyuuvasiae and Adamiformes. They are the sole species within the family Homoadamofabricidae, and are: Homoadamofabricus evangelion With niche and mythotaxa of: Megacyborgae humaniformida humanobot Metanthropos avatarika gigantarobota evangelos

FIGURE 16: The place of the Evangelions within the Angelic Taxonomy.

A second installment will follow shortly on the Seeds, the First Ancestral Race, and the implications of panspermia on Angelic cladistics.

Ok you did swords (fabulous), how about AGSZC as dragons? (Rawr)

Oh you are speaking my language!!! 🐉 You caught me while reading my beloved Loki comics so this turned out rather poetic and metaphysical lol

Angeal: There is a dragon whose scales are as indomitable as proud mountains, known to all the kingdoms throughout the land. Known, but not feared—for his hoard is not one of gold, but of love. He is strict, but fair—if your heart is true, he is quick to love you, and you go forth from his presence with his blessing and protection. It is said by the bards of old that all shields came from his shed scales, gifted so that they might protect their wielders from harm.

Genesis: There is a dragon from whose breath burns the fire of the hearth, a fire around which all storytellers sit to weave their words of glory and doom, to bring hope and awe to any who need it. His tongue is of silver and his scales of burnished ruby, glinting gold in the firelight. His fire can bring ruin to a countryside, but that ruin will also bring rebirth, with new green shoots emerging from the ashes—it will grow stronger, this time. He may kidnap a princess or two from time to time, but that’s mostly so Angeal will come tell him off (give him and his stories the attention they deserve).

Sephiroth: There is a dragon who fell to earth one fateful day. Ever since he could remember, he had soared through the stars, borne aloft on the ethereal winds of the cosmos to wonder at its vast majesty. But this day, he peered too hard in his solitude at a planet bustling with life, and in doing so he strayed too close and was drawn by its gravity to crash upon its soil. His wings, made of the stuff of stardust, could not bear him aloft again, built for the soft breath of space as they were. So now he spends his days gazing at the beauty of the night sky, and finds some solace in the stories of wonder Genesis spins for his mind’s eye, and the stalwart companionship of Angeal.

Zack: There is a dragon who is often seen running amongst the wolves, only a bit larger than them, whose hoard-instinct is fulfilled by treasuring all of life’s experiences. He loves the freedom of running on the open plain, teasing his wolf-friends on occasion by picking them up suddenly for a quick glide down from a larger hill. He is often mistaken for a hatchling, but when he or anyone he loves is threatened, you will be assured by the strength of his teeth in your throat that he is just as fierce as any larger dragon.

Cloud: There is a dragon who was hatched with coal-black scales, smaller than most and quiet. Most were inclined to think him easy prey, and he only seethed at their mistake, but did not correct it. He took each blow the world threw at him, looking to the stars and dreaming of something greater. Eventually, the pressure built up enough that his scales turned diamond-blue and sharper than anything the world had seen. He suffered no bully any longer, to him or to any other.

Um. I’m attached. I guess I have a dragon au now

Everything that you believe in only works because you believe in it, you have given it the power to become real.

Religion , crystals , tarot, divination, affirmation, placebo effect or any tool, practice, method & set of beliefs only work & are true because you have given it the power to be so. Prayers are answered because you stood strong in your faith (believe/assumption)that it will be answered (you persisted in your faith). The power that they all have in common is the power you have given it. The power doesn’t come from the outside it comes from within. The power is in our subconscious mind.

YOU & ONLY YOU create your reality & destiny , you have the power to change your destiny at any moment because infinite realities/ parallel realities exist in the quantum field. The biggest illusion has been that power/god is outside of us when it has always been within each one of us. So please don’t ever stop believing in your power, and the capacity you have to have whatever you desire.

The same divine intelligence/ power that created you and me plus everything else also resides WITHIN YOU & by default you hold the same power. By believing in your godly power you believe in God, the all, divine intelligence whatever name you want to call it.

All religious texts, spiritual teachings, philosophers, esoteric & occult teachings are all saying/implying the same thing over and over again in different ways, we are reminded we hold the power, create our realities and are the gods of our reality. The message is there but only “the ones who have eyes to see and ears to hear” will receive the message. It is everywhere in movies, tv shows, religious scripture, spiritual teachings, and books.

Now I’ll give you a few examples of how it is written & spoken of everywhere. Followed by my interpretation of it.

Side note : The Bible is not meant to be taken literally, but to be understood at a metaphysical level.

Genesis means "origin, creation, generation". The book of Genesis is about creation and the birth of all things in existence.

"And God said, let their be light, and there was light" Genesis 1:3

God affirmed and it was so.

"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him” -Genesis 1:27

We are God, we are a reflection of god , we hold the same power as God, God/Divine intelligence is In us all. We are all God experiencing itself through different ways.

Jesus says "The kingdom of God is within you" Luke 17:21

God can be found within you as it has always been within you. If we are made in the image of God then we don't need any other validation but our own self. Everything you want comes from you not outside of you.

Jesus says " Varily I say unto you, except ye be converted and become as little children ye shall not enter the kingdom of heaven" Matthew 18:3

In other words dare to dream & have a big imagination just as children have. Create & imagine whatever you desire, no dream is too big or impossible if you dare to dream it in imagination. Use your creative child like imagination to create your heaven on earth. Your imagination is the kingdom of heaven. Don’t ever lose your imagination. Don’t rely on logic or the 3D to create, if you can see it in your minds eye then it is very real & possible.

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”

“For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.”

Matthew 7-8

If you want it, decide & assume you have it and you will receive it. It is as simple as that.

“so is my word that goes out from my mouth:It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” - Isaiah 55:11

Everything that you assume will become manifest, you must not have any doubts that it will not be so, because it is already done. Know that everything you want is already yours, simply affirm it to be yours

“Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in Heaven.” -Matthew 6:10

Similar to the saying “As within, so without, as above, so below.” Everything & everyone is a mirror/ reflection of your mind & what you assume to be true. The world is a mirror of your assumptions.

"Power resides where men believe it resides. It's a trick. A shadow on the wall. And a very small man can cast a very large shadow. " - Varys from Game of Thrones

There is 7 Hermitic Principles. The first principle is the principle of mentalism.

" The all is mind; the universe is mental"

In other words everything in existence, our outer world is all a mental construct. It is a hologram projected out based on subconscious programming. Everything we see is first created in our mind by programming of our subconscious & imagination. The world is a mirror of our assumptions. What we believe to be true is projected out into the outer world. If you want to see change in the 3D then you must first make the change within.

Now do you see how everything points back to YOU? How things are made possible by you & you only?! Do you understand the power of your mind?? Do you get that the 3D is a reflection of your inner mind (3D reflects the 4D). Do you understand that you are the only validation you need? Do you understand that imagination is real and not the 3D?? Do you understand that everything that exists and can possible exists is true and real? It all exists in some reality, there is infinite realities. Do you see how things have the power to be when you give it your awareness? Do you see how you are a reflection of God working & experiencing itself & creation through you= you are the operant power & god of your reality?!!!

Silent Hill's God

I've been a fan of Silent Hill for years, but haven't contributed to the analysis before because frankly other people have done a stellar job covering it. If I don't have something to add, I'm not going to force it you know?

There was an analysis video that sparked me thinking seriously about the cult's deity and what created the metaphysical situation in Silent Hill. I cannot for the life of me recall which analysis it was, but will link if I remember. I do know that it pushed me into finally understanding though, and after almost twenty years of loving the games I feel ECSTATIC.

So for anyone who might be interested:

There was a god of the land that later became Silent Hill. This god did not predate humanity, and humanity at that time knew only pain and hatred. This god naturally was not a human, didn't understand humanity or suffering or good or evil.

A man offered prayer and a serpent to the god (referred to as the sun) asking for salvation from the world. A woman offered a reed and a prayer for joy to this god as well. It's worth noting that the serpent likely ties to the tempting serpent in Genesis while a reed was notably used as punishment to beat people in history. The god attempted to satisfy these prayers, but again--the prayers themselves were tainted by pain and hatred that colored the entire world. The serpent offered highlights the concept of sin committed by man, seeking to be saved from the sins committed by humanity and past bad actions. The reed signifying punishment is then tied to joy, and specifically joy in punishment.

Already, the nature of Silent Hill as a place that punishes visitors for their own perceived sins by externalizing them and reflecting them back makes sense. Confronting the memories and actions within that the individual considers sinful is the only way to find salvation, since sins have to be accepted to be dealt with in any capacity. Additionally, god created linear time. This allowed cause-effect to be understood with regard to sin, and a path forward afterward instead of being trapped permanently in the moment of transgression. This is exemplified in trauma or even PTSD flashbacks, specifically applied for people who blame themselves for said trauma. On a collective human level it's the idea of humanity being forever punished for consuming the fruit of knowledge of good and evil, but individually it's the individual belief of having done evil and warranting punishment for that perceived evil. Linear time means that a path does exist in the wake of sin.

God also stripped humans of immortality in answer to the prayers to make death possible. Joy is meant to be in accepting and addressing the sin to find salvation, whether through moving on with different and non-sinful choices or death as a close to suffering from that sin. In either scenario, it is considered addressed and not something to continue torturing that person with either internally or externally from Silent Hill.

Relief from self-hatred and joy in punishment were the prayers. Externalizing the sin and self-hatred is what that god sees as answering those prayers and helping. It's a scenario where the idea is that god created a kind of hell purely because the supplicants desired hell, with the idea that after going through that and finding closure they'd feel better.

Part of what is so interesting and striking to me is the idea that the god wasn't inherently evil or malevolent. If the broadly human self-loathing (or even individual self-loathing) and associations with pain while asking for joy hadn't been present in those prayers, maybe Silent Hill as we know it with the horrific and psychologically symbolic monsters wouldn't exist. There might have been approaches and prayers with genuinely pleasant results. But when entreating an entity whose entire mode of thinking was alien with that darkness attached, the god did the best she could to provide accordingly. Silent Hill's god isn't a judge, she's a mirror.
