Comments on Dummies.
Dummies [other formats] is still a long way from being watertight. It may never be. The leaks finally have to be sealed with the mustard-seed plaster of our cosmic trust. The Spirit of Truth is not something to be computed, after all. The truth is alive, like everything else in the world. Was that not the point of the Incarnation: 'I am the way, the truth and the light'?
I notice on the original website there were attempts at a glossary along with synopses. That is usually a tedious business, but one that cannot avoided indefinitely. This might be the initial venue for such.
Do I hear nominations for the weakest dummy link? Or for the biggest hole in the argument?
Certainly I struggle with the ouroboros. They don't call me Laocoon for nothing! Recall my original attempt at cosmology. The ouroboros, however, is not mentioned until here.
What I am pointing to is the extreme density of archetypes loosely designated as matrix, logos, dia-logos and ouroboros. This is the cosmic black/white hole: don't tread on me! The above sculpture captures the dynamic of it, better than my 1K words. Laocoon is Hercules and Jesus in one. In regards to the latter: we must recall Alexander and the infamous knot. In sacrifice there is salvation. Paradoxical here, sublime there. The christos is both Laocoon and serpent. Clearly the serpent is the organic aspect of the logos. Think of the great chain of being. Emerging in potency, the christos is the A/O of being.
