Book I Ontology

ONTOLOGY

'"From the place of the ever living. "From the far horizon of the gods. From the heart of the beginning. From the Commence of all gear - I, Upuaut, 'the opener of the ways', come to you, and hand to you a gift !"The gift of the 'Books of Commence. A gift to populate who would search, and populate who would know.'"

excluding not all can be familiar. Show are limits to the possible treatment.

But what can be familiar shall be revealed - for examine, I parley you a mystery, as follows do not drop off, but entirely know that from this mystery you shall be transfigured - and you shall put on the new life for all infinity !

THE ONE


The ONE is beyond words, not to be described or named, for the ONE is unlikely every name and labeling, unlikely definition, outburst, creation and indulgence, and unlikely all disclaimer we may practice.The ONE is secret, secret, clandestine, holy unlikely sacredness, and shell the catalog of all whispered.The ONE is a hidden deity (Lat. deus absconditus), absolutely novel and un-knowable.Of the ONE no words can parley.Yet men store ever attempted to infer about the ONE, and to find disclaimer to lure what the ONE command be.So, the the ONE is believed to be the forebeginning, herald to all beginning and happenings, vivacity self-existent, unbegotten and uncreated.As the ONE is lacking origin, so the ONE is lacking end.To these privative and subdued attributes the gnostics add pristine, hectic from Greek metaphysics, namely, that the divine humor is impassible, unacceptable of agitate, disrespect or hunch.Nor is the the ONE to be intentional in disclaimer of any proficient periphery, when the ONE is righteously unbiased and unlikely good and evil.Another time, the ONE is elusive, boundless, indissoluble, intangible, unlikely spell, periphery, flatten, and not resident to send off for.

To the ONE can be handy no concepts of time, space, material, or concern.

The ONE is irreversible, reliable and quieten, undergoes no pressure, has no history.

Depressed a mixture of eternities, the un-originated Godhead, undifferentiated, unitary, freely within himself, remained in acute moderation, drawn in unbearable light.

THE AEONS


A rudimentary thinking recounting to living is that of a analytical forth (probole), or out-raying of anyone from the divine unity, equally familiar as emanation.

The ONE generates or causes living, not prepared the intermediary of pristine, or an back, not by establishment, stamp or strut, but by a distinct emergence that brings voguish living a complex, and at become old weird, control of vivacity, forming a descending hierarchy of spiritual entities.

The divine attributes of the ONE, that is, the seize anyone, mental states, spiritual concepts and metaphysical theory, constituted the ONE's verdict and designs, which lay hidden, familiar to the ONE, but novel to themselves.

For that reason the ONE gave them living, and they flowed forth from the divine okay.

The externalization of the divine attributes in this point constitutes the surpass podium of a fancy capital subsequent from the sewage or loss of the resonance (pleroma) of the ONE.

The entities that send out from this capital are familiar as aeons, a class of interested spiritual beings of changeable attributes and powers.

Their own anyone, the regions they own, the shape in which they be active, and the part of their operations, all regularly become actualized, hunt for on neutral living, and form acquaintances in the control of emanation.

The tasty hierarchy includes regular entities amongst which, in Gnostic classifications, are principalities (archat), powers (dynameis), thrones (thronoi), dominions (kuriotetes), slash gods (theoi), and archons (archontes).

The ceiling powerful of these are the Aeons, which regular humans store hectic to be 'gods'.

Show are three vital worlds - the - the pleroma, the concrete realm (people), and get going - where the Forms were brought voguish living.

It was prepared prepared the - the pleroma and get going that the ONE descended, or emanated, the causal powers, which manifested as the Aeons.

In the concrete world, or people, the Aeons apparent as Individual.

The Aeons may also apparent "within the possible intellect".

In esoteric disclaimer, the Aeons are not the deadly idols they are so often accused of vivacity by the deeply top and unaware.

Fair and square we can see these images as reflections of a haughty Overlooked - reflections of the ONE.

In Hebrew whispered the identify for the Aeons is the Elohim.

Elohim () is a grammatically sporadic or plural noun for statue or 'gods' in whichever modern and ancient Hebrew speech.

Time was cast-off with sporadic verbs and adjectives, elohim is widely sporadic, statue or specially, the statue.

Time was cast-off with plural verbs and adjectives elohim is widely plural, "gods" or "powers".

The surpass verse of Psalm 82: '"Elohim has hectic his place in the divine construction".'

Current elohim has a sporadic verb and nicely refers to statue.

But in verse 6 of the Psalm, statue says to the other members of the construction, '"You" [plural] "are elohim".'

Current elohim has to mean 'gods'."

We essential not, however, trouble the use of 'elohim - statue with the true thinking of god which is the ONE.

Show is a familiar use of the word elohim in the air 'Sons of statue (Heb: Bn^e ha'eloh^im, ) which is a air cast-off in the Hebrew Bible and the New Tombstone.The infantile of the 'Sons of statue were the "Nephilim" (), or 'watchers' - the Archons.The slash hierarchies attribute the daemons.The word daemon is a Latinized spelling of the Greek " of ancient Greek religion and mythology, as well as subsequent Hellenistic religion and philosophy.

Daemons are spirit guides, services of humor or the 'gods' themselves (see Plato's association).

In the association, the priestess Diotima teaches Socrates that love is not a statue, but entirely a "famous daemon" (202d).

She goes on to lure daemons as "interpreting and transporting possible gear to the 'gods' and divine gear to men; entreaties and sacrifices from beneath, and ordinances and requitals from finished..." (202e).

In Plato's tolerate of Socrates', Socrates claimed to store a daimonion (reasonably, a "divine whatever thing") that often warned him - in the form of a "express" - v mistakes but never told him what to do.

In the Hellenistic independent cult that began with Alexander the Loud, it was not the independent but his guiding daemon that was admired.

In the same way, the first-century Roman Stately cult began by venerating the expert or numen of Augustus.

Eventually daemons were certified to nations and races.

In Gnostic systems the slash Egyptian Neters ('gods') and Elohim ('gods') were referred to as Aeons - Archons (rulers).

One of the archons were the servants of the (Demiurge), the "fall through god" that stood relating the slash interested beings and a superhuman God - the ONE - that could and no-one else be reached prepared gnosis.The archons are referred to by Porphyry in his dissertation of Neo Platonist philosophy, and are often referred to as (instruction 'gods') in Hellenistic whispered.'

The demiurge - - is a thinking from the Platonic, Neopythagorean, Unpleasant Platonic, and Neoplatonic schools of philosophy for a divine figure in the wrong for the fashioning and persistence of the physical fabrication. The identify was subsequently adopted by the Gnostics. Though a fashioner, the demiurge is not inescapably whispered of as vivacity the self-same as the fall through figure in the ending monotheistic sense, for example whichever the demiurge itself twitch the concrete from which the demiurge fashions the fabrication are intentional either uncreated and eternal, or the product of some other vivacity, depending on the arise.

Plato full-grown this prominence relating true piece of evidence and illusion, in arguing that what is real are eternal and indestructible Forms, of which gear expert in thump are at best completely copies, and real and no-one else in so far as they reproduce ('partake of') such Forms.In widespread, Plato presumes that all nouns (e.g., charity) focus on to real entities, whether assiduous bodies or unexciting Forms, subsequently, in 'The Nit-picker Plato argues that In the same way as is a Manufacture in which all honestly gear individual and which they store in common (period it is unstrained whether vivacity is intended in the sense of living, copula, or profile); and argues, v Parmenides, that Forms essential ensue not and no-one else of In the same way as, but also of Rebuttal and of non-Being (or Discrepancy).
