>gnosticism and neoplatonisms distinctions are important. They separate them significantly.
Do you know the distinctions? Then why don't you explain them? Another claim without any basis provided. Of course I know they are different, but I wouldn't say the distinctions are that important. Your the one making the claim, your the one who has to prove it.
Okay now you are just being retarded and taking what I say out of context
I said seems legit because I hadn't fully grasped all the articles.
Nothing in the occult is provable except through personal experiences or through logic. Tthat's literally why it's the occult and paranormal. Pick up a dictionary once in a while
It's not what labels anyone wants to put on 'it' it's using terms that we agree on to get somewhere and have a meaningful discussion. I have said this many times in this thread yet you keep ignoring this part.
Just for once define some definitions can you??!?!?!?!
>As above so below doesn't even necessarily mean that the universe has a god or a body mind or soul. How can you even say there is.
Yea nothing necessarily means anything. It's called inferring from logic, and it makes sense until it doesn't through contradiction. Actually try to provide contradictions please?
>What we do know is that there is a god principle, and that the universe literally spawned out of nothing. This nothing which everything spawned from is the akasha principle and it is not a mind.
I can literally say the same thing as you said 'x doesn't even necessarily mean that y. How can you even say there is.' I mean that's what you sound like.
But seroiusly what is the god principle? There are many different ideas for what god principle can be. All is one is probably what you meant I'm going to guess. I shouldn't be guessing though, why are you saying so much while being so unclear in your meaning. Realize what you are doing here…
Yes when there was nothingness, there was only god. In it's perfect nothingness, wait why am I explaining for you? And what does this have to do with anything? Are you just blogging now?
>Sophia literally just means wisdom.
Yes, Sophia means intellect, which is what Logos also means. There are nuanced differences between the two terms but I don't think they are relevant here. Care to explain how any of this is relevant, and to what?
>Which by the way montalk says that these beings were created by humans long ago because of our giving energy to illusion and that the demiurge got corrupt from this
What the fuck? This just prove that you haven't read his shit at all. He specifically explains how the priesthood of Moses abused the Ark of the covenant envoking yahweh which corrupts the demiurge, or something like that. It's not at all how you explain it though. And this part has much less to do with gnosticism/neoplatonism than it does with the abrahamic faiths
>You know what this sounds like to me? The same tale as eden, which is also the same tale of human ignorance. Which is all the explanation of the mind consciousness relationship and doesn't necessarily mean that something like this actually occurred but is rather a analogical story. These same thoughtforms btw he and many other people believe to be archons which people also tend to believe are reptilian. This all again is just synonymous with maya and not actual beings. The same way the devil and demon concepts were used.
Your not making any sense here. These same thoughtforms? What thoughtforms? What the hell are you even reffering to.
Nothingness literally means 'no concepts' and there is a great logic behind it all, I'm sorry that you don't see it but it is quite simple. Before everything there was nothing. But because there was nothing, this nothingness itself was 'everything'
Wow that wasn't so hard, and it's logical. Go learn some Combinatorics, well actually just learn how factorials work, why 0!=1 it's incredibly logical
What doesn't make sense is your application of entropy. If there is absolutely nothing, then the state has already reached entropy. When the big bang happened the state went from complete entropy to a state of less entropy. Actually by definition it went from maximum entropy to minimum entropy and then the universe riding out the entropy back to maximum which is how we exist. That's the real purpose allowing evolution to occur.
Again I don't know why I'm explaining back the things you bring up, after you brought up so many different things one after another without explaining any of it…
