Moon Spheres of -Occultation and ±Reflection

This is the [±] Journey of [+] Moon and [-] Code in the [-] Nights of the [--] Winter's [-] Dark and [+] Bright [±] Lunar Cycles in the [∞0] Primal Cradle of the [±] Wheels of Life. If you haven't met ![±] General Confusion yet, journey with Pogo to the Eight Principal Towers for a narrative to illustrate the derivative abstractions of [-] Base Matrix and [+] Conscious Force. Please see the Wisdom Wheel for reference on the archetype polarity markup to cipher today's mind-steam at more depth.

I seem to be in a [-+-] Flowing [--] State of Occultation once again, exploring the integral domain of the [+++] Lotus Crown of Being and the [++] Universal Relations underlying all the [2^3 = 8x] ternary polarity composites in the domain of the [2^2 = 4x] Four Fundamental Influences governing the [8x] Principal Archetypes of the [±] Mirror of the [2^1 = 2x] Mind. We journey on the [8x] Straight Path of Life to the [8x] Corners of Being through the [8x] Steps of Cognitive Evolution, [+] Pushed and [-] Pulled by our ![±] Flickering Mind, meeting with [+] Happiness and [-] Distress in our [±] Great Journey of Life.

≡ Four and Two and More: Derivative Phases of [-] Code and [+] Moon ≡
Such are the forms of the [--] Heart of Logos. [-] Code is the matrix of patterns.
[+] Moon is the soothing light of insight. These two are the life-nourishing essence
of the prime foundation of reality, the roots of perennial peace and symmetry.

The [±] Reflective CodeSatori Continuum flows towards the [∞] Zero-One Singularity, [+] Emerging as the following [-] Basic Pattern:

[±] CodeSatori = [+-] Moon is Code, [-+] Code is Moon.
[++] Moon is Moon, [--] Code is Code
.

[+] Moon. [-] Code. [±] MoonCode / CodeMoon.
[∞0] ZeroDivision -> Done.

When polarized information is [+] Explored, [-] Unified and [±] Contextualized, the prime formula of cognitive [+] Ascent and ![-] Descent leads to an endless set of correlative notes and basic polarity markup in the elementary Wisdom Wheel of primal causation at the source of all charged particles and phenomena.

When the [+++] Quarks of Heaven communicate their colors via [--] Gluons, when the [+--] Thunder, [+-+] Fire and [-+-] Water of Electrons, Protons and Neutrons are held together as atoms with [+-] Electromagnetic Causality, and when the natural world also sticks to its [±] Revolving Cycles of Balance, it's clear that a ![±] Confused Human Mind is the only real fundamentally dislocated problem factor in existence.

The [++] Strong Color Force of [∞0] Luminous [+] Brightness paints the [-] Material Canvas of the [---] Notepad++ with [±] Streams of Rainbow Diamonds exhorting the [+++] Infused Mind-Stream for [+-+] Analytical Description and [--+] Strong Expression, nourished by the [±] Two Primal Fishes and the [5x] Five Elemental Breads at the [++-] Lake of Subconscious Mind and the [-+-] Stream of Natural Heart.

Once the [---] Material Base of the [--] Force of Cognitive Gravity meets [-] Primal Logos, the operation [-++] Expands Gently with the [4x] Four Winds, [+--] Urging the World to be [---] Receptive to [+] Adopt the [±] Golden Rule of [±] Balance. Then, first ![-] Forsaking the ![+] Obsession leading to ![+] Excess and ![-] Deprivation, then overcoming ![++] Fanaticism and ![--] Lethargy, and finally overcoming ![+++] Fundamentalism and ![---] Materialism, we can approach a healthy collective state of being.

[±] Enough is [±] Enough is a primal axiom calling for no proof outside its own self-evident truth. This simple perennial principle of balance is however only forthcoming to [-+-] Pristine Natural Minds in the (2) Heart, felt vividly by [++-] Seers of Conscience in their (2) Heart and (1) Body, and experienced fully by [+++] Integral Mystics of Light in their triune (3) Intellect, (2) Heart and (1) Body. We all revolve in the endless [±] Cosmic Dance of [+] Desire and [-] Aversion — and our basic choices are for [±] Balance and for ![±] Disruption. The former path leads to [+] Happiness and [±] Wisdom, the latter to ![-] Distress and ![±] Confusion.

Notepad++ — A Helpful ++Big Picture Assistant ≡
Integral balance of the Body-Heart-Intellect is the heart of a holistic spiritual quest.
"May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole (1) spirit,
(2) soul and (3) body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." (Tess 1. 5:23)

Pages and pages of cosmic scribble of correlative streams — much of it hardly comprehensible or correlative in its raw and primal form — are filling into seamless grids of of perennial archetypes and subsequent derivative patterns of polarity composites. Fetched from across the continents and the pages of mankind's history and thought, they all speak of a time before the building and scattering of the ![+++] Tower of Babel.

The infamous tower of corruption was built upon [---] Earth to advance the cause of ![+] Dominion, rather than [+] Caretaking, [±] Integration and [-] Unification with the [±] Great Sphere of Being. It was on top of this wheel that the [--] Ancient Seers founded our civilizations, giving them a [---] Healthy Firmament and a [--] Cradle of Wisdom with the [-] Logos Matrix of Moon, and a [+] Seed of Inspiration, a [++] Holistic Perspective and [+++] Gems of Great Wisdom with the [+] Conscious Pneuma of Sun.

[--] Occultation happens on the Dark Side of the Moon, the Ancestral Fields, the Cave of Antioch and the Base of Cognition on the Dark Night of the Soul in the Streams of Hades beyond the [---] Planes of Earth. In the [±] Deepest Rabbit Hole, we meet the [-] Dark and [+] Bright Passenger, the [±] Gates of Heaven, the [4x] Four Cardinal Dragon Kings and the [4x] Primal Archangels, the [7x] Primal Flames of the [+++] Crystal Sea of the [8x] Noble Eightfold Path, the proverbial [+] Buddha on the [±] Middle Way of the [-] Perennial Dharma with his [±] Great Assembly of [2x4] True Followers, the [+++] Son of Man and his [7x] Seven Churches, and many more familiar figures from the scriptures and the fabric of humanity and primal nature.

The prime patterns in the ancient scriptures are essentially equivalent, for the fundamental [-] Logos at its root is both [∞] Undivided and [+] Analytically Derivative into the [---] Phenomenal World infused with [+] Primal Consciousness and the fundamental [±] Revolving Cycles of Being. All the [--+] Religions reaching for the [+++] Stairway to Heaven are indeed talking about the exact same patterns of cognitive evolution using a confusingly broad and cryptic array of symbolism and parlance. While we tend to be largely monoglots when it comes to religion and spirituality, true unity is found in the [±] Greater Balance of Life.

This includes the complete [±] Book of Revelation, Islamic [-] Eschatology and [+] Cosmology, [-] Hinayana, [+] Mahayana and [±] Vajrayana, the [++] Great Epics and [--] Analytical Wisdom of the Hindus, and a good many sources more — altogether dozens of fields of thought sharing the same primal strand and structures of integral human balance. This is the story of [±] Humanity and its relentless juxtapositioning of perceived [+] Good and [-] Evil — which are never [-] Black or [+] White alone, but complementary aspects like the [+] Fullness of Pneuma and the [-] Emptiness of Shunyata.

Distributed Second Coming of the Integral Being ≡
Once complete, the above will demonstrate the dynamics of a basic apocalyptic life-cycle.
Scribbling down generic and specific patterns and algorithms of wisdom for all ideological
denominations and operative purposes, the many wants and needs of the tribes of mankind.

In the ![±] Abysmal Mirror of our ![+] Selfish Drive and ![-] Corrupted Wisdom, we humans nevertheless manage to turn a very simple principal idea of balanced polarities into petty quarrels — in nothing but a sad testament to our expertise in triviality and pointlessness. While the basic underlying pattern in all of being is almost too obvious to even say out aloud, the basic building blocks of balance are sorely absent in a world of ![++] Partisanship and ![+-] Abusive ![-+] Agendas of ![--] Deep Selfishness.

We then hear ingenious arguments such as these: "You say your axis has [2x] two poles and a [±] middle, illumined by [∞0] spirit. Our prophets however testify that the axis is [+] benevolent and [∞0] undivided!" Or: "You talk about a thing called [±] Forest — how dare you not believe in [-] Pines [+] Oaks!!" Such people live in a body where the [-] Left Hand and the [+] Right Hand refuse to cooperate, and where the [+] Solar Thumb and the [-] Lunar Thumb lead the troops of [4x] Armies of Influence into a schismatic tribal conflict. It is however possible to also unite [+] Light and [-] Darkness in [±] Friendly Terms and enact the [±=>∞] Primal Theocalypse without ![-] Totally Destroying the [---] Entire Planet in the process.

When the [±] Wheel of Balance is corrupted and the [+] Primal Stars begin to fall from the [++] High Heaven down to the [---] Soil of the Earth, we end up with our recurring apocalyptic cycles. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse ride the fields of our collective awareness, pointing to the simple point of the pointedly ![---] grave dangers of [++] Power and Control, [+-] War and Hatred, [-+] Greed and Deprivation, and finally [--] Disease and Morbid Decay. As the natural and obvious result of our own choices, we now live in a world of escalating abuse, chaos, depravity and decay.

Let's heal the ![±] Broken Wheel of Humanity disrupted with [-] Exclusivist [+] Campaigning, advancing a fair and ethical [±] State of Balance — lest we face the inevitable ![±] Reversion of Natural Balance, chasing us back to the [--+] Mountains of Infancy once again! If we can complete these primal cycles of being in the microcosm of our 1) Intellects, 2) Hearts and 3) Bodies, we reach the [+++] Stairway of Heaven leading to the [±] Kingdom of the Pristine Heart. We can then avert a vector where the ![---] Beast of the Earth is invoked from the [---] Womb of Nature to escalate the ![±] Broken Machinery of the ![-] Destructive ![8x] Octophasic Human Virus, leeching off nature's [-] Tender Roots and [+] Sap of Life.

≡ Integral Union: Leonardo's Golden Wheel of [±] Balance ≡
[+] Dynamis:, John the Baptist, effulgent and virile, a light in the darkness, enticing, infusing and pointing towards the sky. [-] Neutralis:, Mona Lisa, mysterious and still, a lady at the barren lands, offering a terrain to be filled with life from above. A dot of John's smile has landed on Mona Lisa's lips to spin the wheel of balance.

Here we are talking about the ![++] Big Picture of Anti-Good and the consolidation of power and control. The abuse of power is accompanied by the ![+-] Red Horrors of War and the massacre of the innocents, the ![-+] Dark Absence of Foresight with the greedy capitalizing on the lusty, and finally the ![--] Pale Corruption of Humanity — where the last shreds of decency and dignity flee from the ![++-] Polluted Well of the Human Soul, leaving but the filthy residue of a ![---] Hungry Ego and an ![-] Insatiable ![+++] Drive for ![-] Selfish ![+] Infatuation.

The unifier we seek is hardly found in a ![±] Corrupt Culture fueled by exchanges of [+] Lust and [-] Greed. An embrace of [±] Selfless Balance is the natural and true [±] Way of the World. While the world is lost in their endless conspiracy theories and apocalyptic prophecies awaiting a savior from above, seldom do we stop to consider what we can do ourselves to heal the world. What's our natural and beneficial role in the [±] Great Cycles of existence? Now there's a question worth pondering!

We live in an [±] Integrated World begging for a [±] Middle Way of Balance between the unhealthy extremes of ![+] Liberalism and ![-] Conservatism, as well as ![+] Capitalism and ![-] Communism, [+] Theism and [-] Atheism, the ![+] Rich and the ![-] Poor, [±] Love between [+] Us and our [-] Neighbors, and between the [+] Great Energy and the [---] Receptive Humanity.

This is an age of [±] Networks and [+++] Distributed Convergence of Wisdom. Therefore, the ![±] Wheel of Apocalypse, the [--] Unifying Messiah and the [++] Purifying Messiah are also collective, distributed phenomena — shared processes of holistic human evolution. The [--] Introspective Prophets of yore, carrying the [-] Peak of Logos in their hearts, exhorted us to follow them and become like them. Hallowing their names in vain and advancing a world of [+] Fervent Partisanship without [±] Healing Acts of Balance is nothing short of ![-] Disgraceful, ![--] Destructive and ![---] Misleading conduct in the name of [+] God and [++] Primal Goodness.

Either we get the point of the [±] Golden Balance, advancing fairness and goodwill in our respective frontiers, or we watch the human collective slide into the ![±] Dark Abyss of their self-created hell — only to emerge once again a bit wiser, whenever the civilization recovers from its fatal ![±] Ego-Rooted errors. Let's try and have enough [+] Heart and [-] Wisdom in [±] Good Proportion to avoid a chilling dip into the very pits of what humanity can accomplish at its worst.

= Forms of Wisdom: As Above, So Below =
Wisdom ships in many forms and packages, both Above and Below. Purge the superfluous particularity and distill the essence of wisdom to meet the actual archetypal realities underlying the many forms, names, abodes and natures of what we consider essential in human life.

Whatever our many labels and justifications for excessive polarization may be, as long as we seek to deprive or abuse each other in order to advance our selfish gain — or simply in heedless lack of wise consideration — the ideal of balance is never reached in them. Then, the mystic-messianic formula people are looking for is nothing more and nothing less than a fundamental understanding of a need for [±] Balance on the [7x] Seven Continents of our [+++] One Great World, and between the integral races and tribes of the [+++] One Humanity holding an incredible potential for a [++] Greater Good.

These are all nothing but the basic patterns that characterize the general human cognitive lifecycle, the cultural evolution of mankind, the prime forces of the material nature, the systemic symbolism in religion and mysticism, the yogic path of ascension and the tantric path of primal nature, the Abrahamic and Dharmic traditions of thought, the rise and fall of religions and ideologies, and a number of other psychological, historical and societal fields of interest. The basic cyclic polarities variably fill our bodies, hearts and minds with composites of force and calm as we enact our roles in the great drama of existence.

In the days long bygone, the Seven Sages in the Sky would exhort and pray, "Lead us from the [-] Darkness into [+] Light, from [-] Death to [+] Immortality, from our [-] Illusions into [+] Reality." Some millennia have passed since the dawn of our current cultures, and we have certainly already broken through layers and layers of our [---] Birth Nescience in reaching for the [+++] Fulfillment of Humanity. If we fail to keep our balance, our [+++] Stairway to Heaven degrades into a falling ![+++] Tower of Babel, with the entire [±] Wheel of Life ![±] Opposing and Resisting once again — thanks to our ![++] Narrow Perspective and ![-+] Lack of Foresight.

A freedom of choice for [±] Natural Balance has been placed into our bodies, our hearts, and our intellects. The world really doesn't have to be the way it is, strife with ![+] Quarrel and ![-] Malice. We can have our [+++] Integral Heaven in a [---] Fertile World, assuming we have the intelligence, the compassion and the practical means to enact a change for the better.

≡ Primal Symbolism: Word is the Way of the World to the Mirror
When the [-] Word and the [+] World swim together to the [±] Mirror, when the [+] Primal Stream becomes the [++] Prime Influence and transforms the self into a [+++] Fulfilled Being, when the [-] Primal Matrix is seen in [--] Deep Occultation and realized in the [---] Fabric of Nature, we reach a state of [±] Integral Balance.

The [±] Sphere of Balance is accessible in the human world through [-] Neutrality and [+] Progress. Yet too much [+] Dynamism leads to ![+] Chaos and not [+] Knowledge and Progress, and again too much [-] Neutralism leads to ![-] Ignorance instead of [-] Unification and Peace. The inevitable result of prolonged excess is a ![±] State of Pandemonium where polarities clash and where conflicts escalate. If you seek to advance [±] Balance, then always [+] Give more than you [-] Take. Do your share in advancing the ![±]->[±] polar shift from [++] Greed to Compassion, from [+-] Quarrel to Harmonization, from [-+] Envy to Sympathy, and from [--] Confusion to Equanimity.

The choice is [+] Actively Yours, [-] Passively Yours, and [±] Collectively Ours. The evils of the world are eliminated by canceling out the ![±] Primal Ego, discovering the [±] Pure Mirror of the Soul, and reflecting with a selfless heart and mind on the ways and means of establishing a natural balance of polarities across every field of human [+] Exploration, [±] Exchange and [-] Education. Mind you, that's a 555 formula there, in case you're screening the gematria for possible ![++] Unitarian Antichrists at this point.

You're on the [++] Good Guys and [--] Wise Women channel for a [±] Better World. In [±] Balance, you can sleep your [-] Nights in [-] Peace and spend your [+] Days in [+] Happiness, enjoying your [±] Freedom of Choice, rolling on from here into the [∞] Great Ever-After somewhere beyond. [+] God knows we [-] Humans could use more [--] Primal Knowledge these days!

Is our [---] Mother Earth not screaming at us from her [--+] Great Mountains, shaking us with her [+--] Thunders Above and Below, devouring us at her will with her [+-+] Primal Fire and her [-+-] Surging Abysmal Floods, laughing at our impudence from her [++-] Wells of Profundity filled with the [+++] Powers of Heaven? Don't provoke the [---] Good Old Lady old unless you're eager to meet the ![---] Gods of the Underworld and the ![++] Primal Fury of the Sky. The [-] Primal Mother knows the art of ![±]->![8x] Pest Control well enough, mastered over many [±] Bitter-Sweet Cycles of ![--] Destruction and [+] Regenesis.

The [5x] Prime Streams in the [--] Immersive [++] Sky are [±] Spinning [+] Progressively, and I wish [8x] Human Beings would learn to [-+-] Flow Naturally and [-++] Expand Gently in the [++] Global Perspective. Never forget the [++] Big Picture: [--] Introspect and [+++] Prevail!

Spiritual Synthesis: Wisdom Singularity Flow Model

When we are struck by a thought we feel is truly profound, we tend to think of it as wisdom. On closer study, we also tend to find that it's recurring and universal. When the wisdom is benevolent, it harmonizes conflicting polarities and leads us to a level plane of balance and unity. Such elementary truths are the base fabric of our manifold fields of existence.

True wisdom is hungry for its own reality, reaching out into the universe to gain more wisdom from across time and space, from throughout the collective history of human civilization. This wisdom leads to a singularity of human knowledge — perhaps a curse, perhaps a blessing, perhaps an utopia, and perhaps nothing at all. The Wisdom Singularity Flow Model seeks to advance a sense of unity among the many strands of wisdom scattered around the world.

Adapting the model and providing a large amount of examples, this paper presents an overall profile of the overwhelming amount of elementary unifying factors in diverging systems of thought. It is free to use and re-work for any and all purposes that seek to unify scattered fields of insight. If you copy information from this paper, please remember to include a back-link, as its contents may be periodically revised to bring it closer towards the intended ultimate model of reconciliation.

≡ Barrel of Interwoven Infinity ≡
Whether we like it or not, we're stuck in a barrel with similar patterns recurring all over again, day in and day out, in diverse contexts. Unraveling these basic patterns is the key to human fulfillment and holistic evolution. The center of the wheel remains still.

Base of Existence: Interwoven Patterns and Cycles


The whole of the domain of natural science seeks the underlying patterns in nature's endless formations, charting the common patterns in planetary bodies, cells, molecules, atoms, and elementary particles. The concept of a Theory of Everything is a Holy Grail in the horizons of many a dedicated seeker and student of fundamental truths; grasping this underlying fabric of patterns would be nothing short of having a universal blueprint to consult. Since we are all looking at an essentially identical world, we will ultimately reach conclusions that are essentially similar. Triangulating the signals, we can begin to distill and deduct the central structure from a global network of colored reflections.

[4x] The entire world of physics is under the reign of the four fundamental interactions. Our planet has its bipolar axis and its four cardinal directions, our yearly cycle sticks obstinately to its ever-flowing seasons of change, and our lives begin and end in cycles of birth, growth, maturity and decay. The whole of our existence is orchestrated in the concert hall of elementary cycles and polarities. Every relationship in existence follows an underlying thread of logos. If there were no Gluons to help the Strange Quarks and the Charm Quarks dance along in tune, and if Quark and Anti-Quark lost touch with each other, Heaven and Earth would fall apart in an instant.

[2x] To speak nothing of the endless life-cycles in nature, we are hard-pressed to escape the two basic polarities of dynamic and static, light and darkness, life and death, right and wrong, Chaos and Logos, above and below — culminating as our fundamental experience of pleasure and pain. We adore the tale of the lover and the beloved, we find solace in the balance of motion and stillness, we learn from our fathers and our mothers, and we find a promise of continuity in the father and the son. Whatever the context, we always find ourselves faced with the same basic polarities, seeking for the wisdom of the fundamental patterns to better understand and relate to the specifics of our situation.


≡ Serapis, Sadashiva, Stupa and Octagon ≡
In ancient days, the world was vast enough to avoid the inevitable convergence of perspectives. When traveling, people would commonly pay homage to the gods of the locale, seeing them as functional equivalents. In today's global and networked society, it's getting awfully crowded.

Shared Human Quest: Shared and Unified Principles


Throughout human history, we have sought to chart and better understand these underlying patterns, the basic universals that would give us better bearings in navigating the stormy seas of life. This same quest has enveloped a vast number of fields of thought, from science to creative arts, from religion to psychology, from societal organization to astrology, seeking to distill a series of universal archetypes as the cardinal and ordinal directions of our reality.

While it has been a quest for essentially one objective, and while dozens of fields of thought have evolved with essentially similar observations and models for relating to the basic elements of their existence, they have been so shrouded by cultural particularity and individualistic pursuits as to become almost entirely incompatible with each other. More often than not, and particularly in the worlds of religion and spirituality, the conflicting divergence is a sign of losing sight of the underlying fundamentals that connect everything together — into the greatness of totality they conceive of as GodUniversal Spirit or One Mind.

These manifold systems of thought describe diverse facets of one totality of existence, and therefore always and invariably overlap in essential principles. The same essentials are clad in colorful clothes and known by countless names, applied in radically diverging fields of endeavor with equally diverging agendas. When stripped naked, we are left with one being with a body and a mind, two eyes, two brain hemispheres, four limbs, and eight cardinal and ordinal directions to take. Invariably, if only we choose broaden our perspective to see the forest from the trees, we will come to find that we are fundamentally in a great deal of agreement over the essentials.

For as long as we remain subject to the inevitable pull of Gravitation, the unswerving grind of the Weak Force, the energizing and mesmerizing flow of Electromagnetism, and the fundamental overdrive of the Strong Color Force, we rotate in the same and shared wheel of reality. Inasmuch as we cannot escape the atoms and the cells combining to form our bodies, we cannot escape the fundamental unity that connects our interwoven endeavors as sentient beings. The only fundamental separating us from a field of unity is the obsessive ego, our craving for distinction by means of separation from an underlying unity.

As we now live in an integrally interconnected and networked global world, with instant access to information across all cultures, a lack of understanding of the universality shared in our human pursuits has brought us to a world of escalating conflicts between apparently irreconcilable positions. With a shared platform of understanding being nothing short of an axiom of survival into the future, it stands to reason that we pay more attention to the basic principles underlying our shared reality in our search for solutions to the ever-increasing flux of information, exchange and conflicts emerging in the global human society.

Wisdom Singularity Flow Model: An Introduction


The system of the Wisdom Singularity Flow Model, featured earlier as the Wisdom Wheel arrangement, is principally based on the ancient Chinese model of Ba Gua, developed by Taoist and Confucian sages and scholars in the days of antiquity. The Ba Gua model has served as a useful base reference in charting the worlds of archetypal thinking, for it operates with basic and essentially mechanistic polarities and principles, without the heavy overlays of symbolism and cultural specifics that often shroud the wisdom from the millennia past. It is designed as a neutral and universal open-source model for study and reconciliation of diverse systems of thought.

In developing the Wisdom Singularity Flow Model, the basic structure has been compared and contrasted with more than two dozen noteworthy models of thought that feature essentially identical patterns, hierarchies, dynamics and derivative relations. These "compatible" traditions include Taoism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hermeticism, Hinduism (Tantric, Puranic, Vedic), Buddhism (Hinayana, Mahayana, Vajrayana), Astrology (Western, Indic, Chinese), and a good number of connecting threads from diverse fields of Psychology, Biology, Computer science, and Particle/Quantum physics. They are all readily compatible with each other — at times down to remarkable principal detail — when laid out against a neutral frame of reference and observed without a specific agenda.

The intention of the Wisdom Singularity Flow Model is to provide a basis of understanding and reconciliation between conflicting fields of thought, whether in the realms of science, society, spirituality, entertainment, psychology, or any one of the countless other systems founded on basic principii we devise in improving our human situation. They need not live in a state of competition and conflict; if we are willing to forsake our obsessive attachment to minute particularity, the rewards of a harmoniously cross-referenced world of insight far outweigh the possible economical and egoistic losses suffered in the process.


≡ Wisdom Field Correlation Wheel ≡
The world is saturated with basic polarities and patterns. If we choose to see them
and reflect on their unity and compatibility, we can reach a state of balance and equilibrium.

Heaven + Earth = Basic Patterns | Lake + Mountain = Models and Methods of Estimation
Fire + Water = Detailed Material Methods | Thunder + Wind = Detailed Cognitive Methods


Basic Symmetries: Zero-One and Two-in-One


Religious and spiritual systems aim almost invariably for creating a fundamental state of balance that transcends the particularities of culture. They seek to advance the balance between Spirit and Matter, between God and Humanity, between Heaven and Earth, between Giving and Taking, and between whatever other labels these two fundamental polarities receive across diverse contexts and peoples.

[1x2] The interaction and exchange between the [+] Dynamis and the [–] Neutralis, the Creating and the Neutralizing, is at the heart of an ultimate spiritual communion and holistic experience of reality. As such, it is the active Axis Mundi of all religious and spiritual efforts. When existence is brought to a state of reconciled balance, the battle between Good and Evil is over. All foundational concepts of moral, ethical and theological good and evil have their roots in this fundamental dichotomy, a conflict between two opposite but complementary polarities in an endless flux of interaction and permutation.

[∞0] This universal balance of the two polarities is fueled by a Great Unknown, a Cosmic Singularity, a Wisdom Non-Duality, an undivided and immeasurable field of unity. This is the ultimate Singularity, the dimension where all other dimensions and phenomena cease to exist; it is the the exact and absolute zero point state of existence, where all of existence is unified into a non-dual strata of no knower, no known, and no knowledge. As such, it is the ultimate knowledge and the pinnacle of mystic union with the Uncreated God, the Universal Spirit, the Great Singularity, and the rest of its manifold labels.

All of mankind's contemplative and creative efforts, when they culminate, are geared towards discovering these ultimate components in their many combinations, and most of all, in their primal and elemental form as pure and timeless principii, a great unifying field that would yield infinite knowledge, infinite energy, infinite dimensionality, and an infinity of experience.

When these ultimate dimensions of reality are attained, the human mind is reposed in a field of perennial peace and tranquility. In practice, the unifying factors will begin to envelope the diversifying factors, establishing a natural sense of unity, shared prosperity and a natural balance of ethics. Therefore, it is entirely unreasonable to be so short-sighted as to hate others, to plunder or to wage wars in the name of religious purity and missionarism. In fact, religious wars are primarily waged over particularities that would be considered impurities in light of the pure heart of the religion's wisdom.

Conflicts between non-theistic, monotheistic and polytheistic vantage points emerge as aspects of a uniform totality become personified or abstracted for ease of access to particular audiences. They are all, of course, components of the same grand entirety of being, the Alpha and Omega of all existence, like a spectre looked at from an infinity of perspectives. While we may many paint many faces for the subsequent aspects of the one Immeasurable Ultimate, we are all after one ultimate field of unification and resolution for all of our shared reality.


 [∞] Singularity = {  [±] Balance = { [+] Dynamis, [-] Neutralis } }
As they mature and culminate, most systems of thought appear to reach a concept of
infinite ultimacy and golden balance while working with the two basic polarities.

Table #1: Basic Correlations in Systemic Models


The following is a table of 108 correlations between the ∞0 (Infinite Zero) and 1x2 (Universal Balance) principles, as found in diverse religions, mythologies and spiritual systems throughout the world and its millennia of recorded history. They are essentially identical in their function as the Great Unknown and Balance of Two Polarities that guide the heart of these formulations. This is a master list of fields that will be studied and cross-referenced in further detail in upcoming appendixes.

While there will invariably be diverging nuances in the interpretation of the exact relationships between the four basic elements of Singularity, Balance, Dynamis and Neutralis, their fundamental principles are identical enough to justify a level field of agreement. There are, after all, countless differences in the interpretation over levels of apotheosis and scopes of relationship and identity even within traditions themselves. Such disputes and disagreements tend to fall within the domain of theological pedantry and elitistic sophistry, and have little to do with the heart of the matter; the basic patterns tend to be relatively simple and elementary.

Sometimes the principal roles in formulations such as these are seen to mirror each others' qualities, because Dynamis always holds a seed of Neutralis and vice versa. They are both rooted in the same Primal Unity, and reveal different emphases in accordance with the observer's perspective and projections. This easily turns Good into Evil, Gods into Demons, Messiahs into Antichrists, filtering through the narrow human lense unable or unwilling to contextualize against a broader perspective. Despite this, the direct and elementary reality underlying names and forms — once experienced and immersed — is eerily identical in nature. The experience itself naturally points to a fundamental underlying unity in all archetypes and purposes.

In advancing this quest for unity, symmetry and synergy in reconciling human perspectives, the above opening four-part grid should provide a useful starting point of general correlations in making headway towards a better reconciled world. This model is presented in the spirit of open-source conceptual development and evolution. The intention is not to introduce artificial universals or forced correlation; the model aims to serve in accurately reflecting the fundamental principles of diverse traditions of thought. Therefore, it should be subject to critique and revisions wherever necessary.


"Venus Dancing in Light and Shadows" — A fresh winter morning perspective
in a composite picture of the Morning Star, Planet of Reconciled Polarities.

Poetic Conclusions: Call for Balance and Feedback


The groundwork for this paper began with inspiration on the 10th of October, 2010, gazing at the skies through the crisp night air in late autumn of Helsinki. It was a beautiful clear sky, and Venus was particularly bright that night — almost frozen in her twinkle at the sky with her two horns raised, her two arms spread, and skirt of rays flowing below. Like the Ancient Egyptians, Ancient Greeks knew Venus as both Phosphoros, Morning Star and Bringer of Light, as well as Hesperos, Evening Star and Son of Dusk. The Hellenistic world realized their unity and named the planet after Aphrodite, their goddess of love. It's hard to argue against a Bipolar Planet of Love on the need for balance on 10-10-10 at 10 PM on a tranquil night.

Then, Venus is Love and Balance with Dynamis and Neutralis married; Hesperus is Phosphorus, Form is Emptiness, One Father is One Son, One Allah with One Will, while Yin and Yang dance on the plateau of Singularity. It does not have to be awfully complicated, if only we are willing to take a step beyond our complicated and entangled perspective, reaching for the fundamentals of our existence — whether the Four Directions, Four Interactions or Four Archangels, whether for the Father and Son, for the God and Goddess, or for other primal symbols of our preference. We are all after the same universal aims; let us make the most out of our collective human potential, seeking to unify more than diversify. Unification leads to Singularity, and Diversification leads to Entropy.

Readers interested in the concepts and models of this paper are cordially invited to provide liberal feedback — critique, compliments, contributions and clarifications are all equally welcome. More detailed explanations of the variables and relations in Table #1 will be available in an interactive model at the Systemic Spirituality website. Upcoming overviews of Wisdom Singularity Flow Model will discuss the 4x and 8x spheres, the four cardinal levels and the eight principal spokes of the Wisdom Wheel, exploring many (but certainly not all) of the systems of thought referenced in this paper.

Metaphysical Relativism: Choosing Friends and Mythologies

Life turns on a new leaf and broader perspectives become available to everyone of us every once in a while. When it's time to evolve and you've grown mature to move on, there's little point in clinging to old and outdated modes of thinking just to uphold facades or maintain outer tranquility. The journey onward continues — but if you subscribed to a system of beliefs, there may be an aftermath to deal with!

The greater part of what's ahead illustrates the fascinating realities of many true/pure believers, the more fundamentalist segment of religious adherents. I personally favor increased recognition of an inherent sense of subjectivity and relativity in all of human thought and activity. It would certainly help in healing many religious wounds and schisms, and we might avert a war or two as well if people were just a little bit less hell-bent on enforcing their absolute views on others and defending in kind.

There's a unifying pattern somewhere in the whirlpool. Finders keepers.

Narrow Horizons and Lost Potentials

One of the darker sides of religion is seen in many adherents' tendency to accept and reject friends and relationships on the basis of their chosen mythos, or the overlay of beliefs and ethical codes. Particularly smaller or tighter religious/spiritual denominations and groups tend to encourage or even enforce a segregation of believers from non-believers, protecting the believers from the perceived dangers of evil and heretical thoughts and mundane company. This leads to mental and/or social isolation from the surrounding world.

Clinging exclusively to people who subscribe to similar metaphysical beliefs is unfortunately a poor means of connecting to the rich and diverse potentials of the human world. When your available range of contacts and possibilities becomes confined within a single frame of reference, you'll be a monoglot in an increasingly globalizing world, and if you happen to subscribe to a smaller group of fringe believers, you're further stuck with an obscure tribal language. Expand your horizons!

The narrower you draw the spectrum of your human connections, the smaller shrinks your window of being nourished by interaction and exchange. On the other hand, should you choose to expand the range of your connections beyond the identifications and defenses of any particular system of belief — the specifics of which are hardly essential in the grand scheme of existence! — you would maximize your interactive potential and evolutionary prospects in life.

Some patterns remain constant across the history of religious fundamentalism.

The Religious Repercussion  What Went Wrong?

Beliefs and mythologies rarely follow a straight-forward logical formula you could easily understand; because it doesn't really have to make sense or be true, as long as you believe in it and receive an extended sense of comfort or convenience. People can get highly emotional and irrational in promoting and defending their cherished beliefs — especially when their existential framework is under perceived threat by contradicting views.

As we've seen the world around, it's not that hard to even accidentally make someone feel that their faith is being blasphemed or persecuted, leading to indignation, uproar, and unpleasant repercussions. If I wrote an article called "My Overly Holy And Medium Moot Existential Dilemma", and then someone got on my case for forgetting the PBUH because the initials added up to someone's revered name (PBUH) — would that make any sense whatsoever? I think not, yet such are the times we live in — everyone is connected, and increased exposure leads to increased opportunities for conflict.

Were religions truly meant to bring so much anger, hatred, and narrow-mindedness into the world? Someone must have lost track of the actual point somewhere down the history lane — unless the bugs were stamped as features and thrown in at last minute by the busy sky systems designer, who just needed to meet his markets soon. If god really exists, one really hopes it was the humans who screwed up their part of the deal, because clearly something isn't quite right with the picture we see.

Crossing through a number of religious communities over the years, I have witnessed on countless occasions how temporary, frail and superficial relationships based on religious sentiment and communality can ultimately be, when perspectives evolve and situations change. Shared religious beliefs can create an awfully narrow and fragile platform for leading an actually fulfilled life, depriving you from access to the greater part of your real inner potentials, along with the potentials of the larger human world and an abundance of lessons to learn.

What color of  glasses do you wear when praying or evaluating others in the eyes of god?

Subjective Faith — Subjective God

On a necessary note of clarification over my sometimes pointed critique on the darker sides of religion and belief — I do not mean to criticize any one system of belief over the others. I am simply against endorsing any given view as the final and ultimate word in metaphysics, including my personal views that are explicitly tentative and subject to improvement and evolution. This reservation naturally reflects on my outlook on the greater part of religious beliefs and associated organizations and congregations, who all too often would have us believe in them as the sole emissaries of the greatest and tallest truth.

Every belief is formed and conceived of in the subjective and limited individual human mind, and religious experience itself is a highly subjective sensation. If a belief works in favor of your subjective world, then may you be happy and prosper with it — but please don't try to force-paint the same sign across everyone's sky. You wouldn't like to see vandals doodling their graffiti on your garage door, so please remember to keep your He-Man and the Masters of the Universe graffiti off others' mental environments too. That is, unless you know you're welcome to decorate and are clearly received in kind. In either case, be sure to keep yourself and your message in a broader context!

God created us all into his own image, and we all seem to look and think a wee bit different. Let's aim for a bit of extra space and dimension up there in the sky as well. Your god sounds an awful lot like you, so he's probably not the same god who created me in his image. Will the real god please stand up and announce himself? It's been a long time coming, and at least a a basic corrigenda and updating for the popular range of holy books would be in order.

The Real God™ — a truly ultimate entity in every respect, excelling in total immanence and transcendence, experienced as absolute in fullness, nothingness and beginningless flux, the supreme blueprint and mastermind of chaos and logos, pervasive as undivided cognitive existential joy — frankly doesn't give a rat's ass about people raving on about any one of the countless conflicting beliefs of theirs. That is, if such an entity exists to begin with — which is something best left up to each individual to sort out for themselves.

A pet future utopia of mine is a world where the humanity at large has evolved to a point where metaphysical relativism is so widely taken as a self-evident axiom that the mere concept of religious friction is an unintelligible oxymoron. Utopia pending, humanity still has a great many cognitive bridges to cross in learning to relate to each other a bit more constructively. We all dig peace on earth, goodwill among men, and all the rest of the good stuff that religious advocates promise in their leaflets. We don't really need that hell and brimstones stuff in capital letters on the flip side of your leaflet, thank you very much!
