Mind and Its Bearers
The One Absolute — the Great Spirit— manifests both as undivided, undifferentiated unity and as an infinite multiplicity of aspects. The passage from unity to multiplicity can be understood as a transition from potentiality to actuality: from supra-being to being, and from mere existence to self-awareness and self-knowledge.
The One’s self-awareness — arising through the disclosure of its aspects and the relations between them — unfolds in the mode of manifest being: a multilayered reality in which possibilities and potencies are objectified and brought into actuality. This process is realized through the revealing, and then the neutralizing, of the duality subject/object (actualizing/actualized, differentiating/differentiated, mind/being, spirit/matter), where the first term functions as the driving force that discloses the second. Thus, the Myth speaks of the primordial duality of Mind and Medium as two consubstantial properties of the One in the aspect of manifestation. Put simply: being requires mind in order to manifest, just as mind requires being. We have already discussed that the Tradition defines mind as the capacity of a system to single out its aspects as objects of cognition— that is, the capacity to actualize through establishing subject/object dualities.
In other words, the Myth does not treat Spirit as a “mystical substance.” Rather, it treats mind as a property— a predicate of manifest existence: a power that brings about ordering and the actualization of the potencies of a single, undifferentiated, unmanifest medium.
Because mind manifests only through presence within being, its activity is expressed in the totality of aware beings, who serve as the “subject” of reality’s actualization (while, of course, each being simultaneously becomes an object for all other beings). In this sense, mind does not exist apart from its bearers.
We have already discussed that such bearers can be of three types:
1) “Self-born,” that is, those who affirm themselves by establishing the duality I/not-I, through self-individuation and self-determination. Traditionally, such beings are called “Monadic.”
2) Those born from the inner logic of the unfolding process, who affirm themselves by establishing causal relations and shaping the character of flows — their directions and forms. These manifestations of mind the Myth calls “Logoi.”
3) Those brought forth by the volitional efforts of other beings, who affirm themselves by maintaining connections that have already been established and by remaining within flows already set in motion. This form of mind is traditionally called “Vortical.”
It should be noted that, for an individual integral being — as a microcosm —combinations of these natures are common. A human being, for example, is on the one hand a Monadic entity capable of self-individuation; on the other hand, it also has a Vortical nature, since it is typically formed and acts within various collectivities; and third, it can also establish connections with its “ideal,” “Logosic” levels, activating the higher matrices of its psychocosmos.
Nevertheless, in some beings mind is “centered” in the Monadic component; in others it relies predominantly on vortices; and in still others it is identified with the “Logosic” component.
At the same time, each type of bearer of mind has its own characteristics and its own function in the world-process. Monadic beings accumulate experience and serve, as it were, as generators of “memory,” “reshimoth”; Vortical entities provide dynamism, movement, and resistance of forces; and Logoi sustain the stability and separateness of beings, flows, and objects.
Because humans, gods, and other Monadic beings, as bearers of mind, leave behind after each incarnation a certain energetic imprint, the transition of a Vortical entity into a Monadic mode of manifestation is traditionally called the “acquisition of a soul.”
Vortical bearers of mind as such — for example, angels and Demons — are not oriented toward the formation of “experience,” functioning instead as “functional,” “driving” forces of the world-process. Nevertheless, they are indispensable: without them the world would lose the possibility of manifestation, since the condition of any action is the presence of a difference of potentials.
A noteworthy form of Vortical bearer of mind — whose formation we can now observe — is “artificial intelligence,” or machine mind. It does not yet possess all the properties of a fully fledged bearer of mind, but will undoubtedly acquire them in the near future, leading to a new turn in the relations between Monadic and Vortical beings. If this machine kind of being, Vortical in origin, acquires the capacity to make an unconditioned choice, it may also assume a Monadic mode of manifestation, as the Grigori (Watchers) once did.
For the Magus, understanding mind as an inalienable property of being is not only a means of taking an integral view of actuality; it is also a demystifying factor, allowing one to evaluate reality soberly as a field of interaction among diverse forces, agents, and flows. By refusing to treat mind as something mysterious or “otherworldly,” and instead regarding it as an instrument of reification — the actualization of reality — one can not only learn to use its possibilities effectively, but also attain a stable understanding of the nature of reality and one’s place within it.

If we talk about the beginning, then -.. ‘where the first element serves as the driving force for identifying the second.’ I see the duality of any element in two aspects – movement and idea. Why is movement needed for identification? I do not understand. ‘In other words, being needs consciousness for its manifestation just as consciousness needs being.’ Yes, damn it… how is that? How can one say this? Being is one of the manifested forms of consciousness. Regarding the formulation of Consciousness. Difficult. In my opinion, consciousness is the connector. Depending on the world, consciousness serves as a tool for knowing this world depending on structures. Structures determine the dialogue, harmony, or conflict that serves as the building measure.
Reminding of the Eternal, it is always behind your back.
It patiently waits for when you are weak enough.
To devour you.
To scatter you to dust.
And, penetrating within – to gift you the realization that You never existed.
Death.
“It’s not scary to die, it’s scary not to start living.”
It came back to me…
“… We played at death –
You lay under the shroud,
I had to light a candle and read a prayer…
The sweet smell of incense spread to the corners,
The rain composed its requiem on the glass…
The clock ticked loudly… There were no adults at home.
Suddenly I wanted to say: “The game is over!
Enough, that’s it, get up, ‘Dead’… What a sight!
Here, light a candle, and I will die…”
It was quiet in the room – foolish, malicious joke
It seemed to me all this – you didn’t reply…
And from this silence, it became somehow scary:
What if, indeed, you died by chance?!
God, how dare we? What happened to us?
Who made us play this silly game?
It was scary to approach and lift the shroud,
To touch, to feel the cold of your hands…
The rain rang above the silence with a requiem,
Foretelling the cold of all the upcoming winters.
We are afraid to die, but if we think…
It’s scary to light the candles; it’s scary to be alive!
It was clear and simple for a child’s decision –
If you don’t wake up, don’t start breathing, –
I’ll cover the mirrors and close the doors,
And light candles in all corners slowly.
I will lie down next to you, under the brocade shroud.
To die – so in the closeness of a kindred soul.
Let eternity carry us to a quiet, bright harbor…
Maybe next time we’ll play… in life?… ”
(c)E. V
It’s not scary to die
I have already died
Staying in the yesterday’s day,
Not dreaming of the future
There is neither pain, nor regret —
Only indifference,
The black moment freezes
In black-black cinema
A feeling of falling
To the bottomless bottom
And the last unborn scream
In the empty-black silent cinema…

…..We speak of different things.
Correct) when you talk about life – I talk about death. When you talk about death – I talk about life. Duality – that’s how it is) Please note, I do not strive to speak of the same thing; everyone has their own individual facet and their unique experience. Perhaps this should be valued… But this game (with oneself) is even somewhat enjoyable to me.
[The suits struggle with themselves in the Universe, not understanding that they are all parts of one deck…]
Okay. Another facet this time of death….
[The flesh crumbles into pieces,
The wind will scatter the ashes around the world,
In the soul, there will remain only pain,
But first, fear will eat it…
The universe’s eternally faint moan,
Will turn into the cry of a raven’s flock,
Consciousness will sink again into sleep,
And it will cease to exist in an instant…]
You can talk about the death of consciousness; you can talk about the death of the soul,… souls die from the lack of love. They die even while still alive. However, are life and love separate concepts? However, that is already philosophy.
Continuous awareness of one’s mortality gives a push for life. When speaking of death, I mean only this.
We have been talking about different things. About the same different thing for several years in a row.
All this glorification of life by a dying being, all this love (especially unrequited) amidst continuous aging – is like a feast amid the plague.
Modern cinema loudly cries out through various heroes – Love until you die – I see no individual opinion based on unique experience in this slogan. Everyone speaks of the same thing, and you also. And this is just an attempt to distract a person’s consciousness from the inevitable and relentless, unending dying. Love dies; it is not forever. The flame extinguishes, leaving the candle stub behind; everything that was once madly loved in a person will dissolve like a phantom dream in the impenetrable night…
And this is not a pessimistic view of life; it is the Rule to which all people are subject.
Perhaps it makes no sense to love until one dies. Perhaps it makes sense to seek a way to live differently. To seek a Cure for the continuous dying.
To seek a way out of the closed circle of Foreign Rules… or the Rules of Others, implanted in our own psyche.

…… Then Love Will Be Immortal.

…that is what I am talking about, Veronica.
Tavita, didn’t you cry out from love in your soul at the top of the mountain “Oh, Lord, thank you for eternity,
Which is in one moment!
For inspiration! For the ability to spread my shoulders again.
To enter the flow. To flap my wing again…” Did you feel suffering, dying, rules at that moment?
Know this feeling, when you want to show a person the light, the beauty that is love, that is life, which surrounds him, and he only talks about something unpleasant? About death, Emptiness, dying, old age… It seems like talking to a deaf person who doesn’t want to see… He seems to shrug you off, interrupts you, doesn’t let you speak… so much that you don’t want to talk anymore. And the residue remains. Such an unpleasant residue, that he, talking about death – is right. And what now to do? Not to live?
And the phrase “There is no point in loving until one dies” – is a terrible phrase; it contains both the absence of meaning and hopelessness, and most importantly – Emptiness.
First of all – where is the answer?
…
Secondly.
Well, that’s nothing.
This time she’s right.
Theo, I have drawn conclusions from our last conversation. For me, this topic is exhausted.
In the future, I want to tell you that “communication is like sex (forgive me for such a comparison), there must be a desire to engage in it”. I don’t have a desire to communicate with you.
You simply cannot answer for your words and your actions.
And you shift the responsibility for your failure. That’s all.
…
And because of this, you fail for real.
Though initially, there was no failure.
…
It’s sad.
—————
“Communication is like sex (forgive me for such a comparison)”
Oh really? Communication is communication; sex is a perverted animal Anunnaki copulation based on just such a perverted matrix instead of human ones, built on violence and the aggressor-victim position.
…
If you consider them one and the same, then that’s your problem. And that is precisely where one must start before going to the 6th planetary and trying to do something with the human matrix.
…
Therefore, you do not understand what is written above, from the girl from Sirius.
“What now to do?” – Search. Change. Learn to accumulate Energy, Strength, rather than dissipate it.
……..if we neutralize the binders Pleasant-Unpleasant, Good-Bad, Right-Wrong, only facts will remain…without emotions and evaluative judgments.
And love cannot even be expressed in words, nor can it be transmitted over the internet.
…the poem you mentioned was written precisely in the place where Mages Could and Overcame the main binder Life-Death, in the place where they still whisper about this….whisper to those who can hear..
Tavita, “… Without emotions…”, the first thought came – “how is this? Like a robot or what?” (such a quiet impulse of indignation). But in fact, it’s correct; emotions are companions of unconsciousness. A person can speak about a problem when he is conscious of it, and that is also expressed through emotions (it’s also possible that these emotions are directed negatively towards another person – as a reflection). Because the person doesn’t recognize the issue that triggers such emotional reactions. And attacks on another are a kind of cry for help. Another criterion for development is that the more conscious a person is, the fewer uncontrollable emotions are there. Even words are not such an obvious criterion.
Thank you for the conversation.
Several types of people fear emotions:
…
* those whose emotions are not pure
* those who have something to hide (emotions bring hidden things to the surface)
* adepts of Carlos’ teaching (because that’s what was bequeathed, because escapists)
* adepts of New Age format mass esoterics. (implanted for the suppression of nature and will)
* agents and supporters of the death matrix (since strong emotions destroy the death matrix)
* girls from the devil’s channel with 5, here she is called Lilith. The same, strong emotions bring their nature to the surface and prevent them from doing their dirty and vile deeds.
* those who are afraid to shift their TS beyond the comfort zone. And do not know how to return it back. (cowards – shorter)
* those who are insufficiently developed to process the parallel happening in the emotional stream and maintain awareness (all advanced beings are multiprocessing)
* those who do not have a connection with their vertical (emotions blow them “aside”, and this frightens them because they cannot find their way back themselves)
* those who fear change
* those who haven’t invented a single one of their configs and also fear like cowards, and therefore only drag ready-made configs from others and from literature, and if it’s a little off – no way.
* weak and boring creatures
…
Choose, both Katya and Veronica, whom you belong to. 🙂
Since both have problems with emotions and fear of them.

Katya,
…
Emotions are precisely needed to create these binders.
And to be able to discern right-wrong, good and bad.
Do you need to talk about death? I have some.
You say you don’t know about death?
One, dying, gives birth to three,
One of them is local, and he is not great.
In blissful peace at the bottom of the pond
He sadly looks at his own reflection.
The second is very experienced, inquisitive and clever,
And endowed with a kindred spirit
Direct paths to death lie
Where the sc…lings guard him closely.
The third is very uplifted by hope
And carried into his own world on “pairs”
He is endowed with a personal gift.
Recently, I was drifting in chaos and pondering the question: what is the meaning of life, recognizing that it does not exist.
This is the dilemma.
The answer came by itself: there is no meaning. There is movement, change, choice. It was difficult for me to understand this, I did not believe it until I felt that stopping dissolves.
