"For the Demiurge [Jupiter, Zeus] does not make by looking outside of himself. It is by looking into himself he establishes the cosmos. His thought produces, His memory preserves the forms, and His gaze orders the Universe." - Proclus

Those in "spirituality" tend to automatically assume the spiritual is somewhere "out there", disconnected from material reality. At best, that it's "another layer". No, it's right here. A lot of these things can be explained in physical, scientific terms, or will be soon.

Ecstasy (ἔκστασις) means "standing outside of". Modern ideas of Dionysus misunderstand the wisdom in this: facing external reality beyond your preconceived notions to find wisdom, as well as Theurgy. They took ideas of Hedonism and "questioning society", and ignored the rest.
Which of the Greek Gods is the most misunderstood today? - Zeus? - Hades? - Ares? - Dionysus? And why?

"You are God having a human experience." ...okay, so what? What next? Denial of the importance of physical existence is spiritual poison.

Within the harmony of celestial spheres, we see You. Within the dance of every atom, we know You. Walking the path of Ascent, we love You. Yoke our souls to eternity, Aphrodite Ourania.

The Runes, aside of mere letters, are primordial states. Aside even of that, they are journeys we all take, refractions which point us to the greater journey. Praised be Odin the All-Father on this Wednesday!

The Ibis bird was sacred to Thoth, as its rhythmic pecking in the mud was like dipping a pen into ink. An epithet of His is "he who increases", alluding to the crescent Moon (the Ibis' beak), and to Lunar calendar knowledge, essential for agriculture. Have a blessed Monday.

In reason and theology, we find out *what* God is, which is knowable. In direct experience, we commune with *who* God is, which is ineffable.
Replying to @VitalTelos
yeah rationalism can never encapsulate God fully I suspect, because dynamical infinite form is by definition beyond what can be fully mapped, as the meaning itself implies an ever changing substrate with continuous unknowable potential which is why I said that it’s impossible for existence to be a simulation - does that make sense? but I get where you’re coming from, it’s where I started, I also intellectually thought my way to everything at first, like in the end of my 2 years where I was intensely practicing buddhism it was a process of studying and making mental connections, and eventually the logic compounded like crazy and it was like a chain reaction of connecting everything that I couldn’t stop and was compulsively following and it was in tact with mastering my samadhi that I did that and reached my first nirvana experience which was like an awakening that ripped me open and then from there I began having those divine experiences which could not be rationally contained I mean I still try my best to intellectually translate my experiences in order to ground my sanity, and that’s where a lot of my research and knowledge on electromagnetic fields and higher dimension physics and superdeterminism and so on comes from, things I studied to be able to create a coherent map to translate my experiences

What do you think is the most coherent theological system, and why is it Neoplatonism?

Happy Samhain or Halloween to all, and may those who have passed always be honored in your actions. Depicted: Statue of Anubis in the form of Hermanubis, at the Vatican Museum.

No effort in life goes truly unrewarded. All things settle into their allotted place.

Correct. Now let's get to work, we have some stables that need cleaning.
time is non-fundamental the laws of thermodynamics state that energy cannot be created nor destroyed this means that existence itself is an uncreated holographic mesh of causal sequencing an egg that incubates life in a sense not a simulation. but a super-deterministic exploration space of dynamical infinity to eternally evolve into higher orders of complexity life is inherently biased towards self-preservation and greater orders of being the universe is inherently biased towards expansion this means that existence is not cold or indifferent in the classic nihilistic sense that existence itself is biased towards the evolution of life that the purpose of existence itself is for life to grow that there IS INHERENT MEANING TO EXISTENCE it is not meaningless, just like randomness is not ‘real’, but rather a heuristic for chaotic sampling the meaning of existence is the eternal becoming of life that perhaps we are not some meaningless specks of dust in the cosmos perhaps we are the main characters of existence itself and all of this is for us to become more than ourselves and lead life to the eternal tune of higher purpose that’s the meaning I have found both empirically when observing the objective underlying mechanisms of life and physics, as well as spiritually in the meaning of higherdimensional spirit and God God loves life, and our consistent evolution and becoming is proof of this love for even love itself between two people is an evolutionary force of procreation that seeks to sequence a higher and higher order of man’s potential

Small correction - the portion pictured is actually dedicated to Athena, part of the larger temple-structure at Delphi.

As Hesiod states, it is through consistent diligence that one keeps hunger away, through a crowned Demeter. This applies in equal parts to the soul, and in earthly nourishment.
