5. Everywhere, and nowhere. Right off, I can entertain three instances where spirit will manifest. The most obvious first would of course be the primordial spirit which is manifested everywhere; transparent as an aspect of reality, because it is reality.

Second would be the zero point, or, zero volume manifestations which are subsequent and individual perspectives of the primordial which would be as numerous and diverse as the experiential physical vessels within which they are lodged.

And lastly there is quite possibly a subtle dimensional overlay that is superimposed upon our four dimensional reality construct. Spirit has very little if any mass, so the greater the volume the less the density which could render them anywhere from sparkling points of light to ghostly silhouettes and everything in between.

Apparently with some spiritual phenomena, and somewhat an analogy. It appears that some experiences require consciousness to be 'tuned' to a particular range of 'frequencies' such as with the Machine Elves of dimethyltryptamine(DMT), or the Shadow Persons of diphenhydramine(sleep-aid) - definitely not recommended.

4. According to my model. If you begin with the root aspect of primordial spirit. Which would initially exclude the three spatial dimensions, although the dimensional aspect of 'time' would be an integral part of this spirit, but at this prior stage it would only be time 'within' the primordial. It would not be time as change which is observed in a developing universe since the aethereal expansion has not yet occurred.

So it can be seen that when observed through one lens, that every evolving element of this primordial spirit is just another of its' many faces. Although typically when referring to spirit it is the incorporeal, living, and elusive that we are getting at - the animator, or, ghost in the machine. For some machines an adequate analogy would be the electricity that drives them, in which they would otherwise be dead, although oddly enough, electricity in its' manifested form is not even energy, technically, it is the flow of electrons which are fermions, or, matter particles.

3. This is the part where it gets even more fucked up. Theoretical physics will typically regress to the primordial point, but no farther, with the main reason being, I believe, is that you cannot go any farther. There is nothing beyond, and as a matter of theoretical fact, at this juncture, space, and macrocosmic time does not even exist.

There is this inevitable fork in the road. Where you can either go the one way, and accept a cosmological constant of spacetime being static, infinite, and eternal, as opposed to the other, where things magically appear out of nowhere, without cause, i.e. something from nothing. Either avenue being equally absurd upon sufficient interrogation.

With the above, and all things being equal, including the absurdities, there may still be a tendency for four dimensional beings to find it difficult, if not impossible to fathom an alternate existence of absolutely nothing, or, a negative existence, but with absurdities aside, the principle of parsimony(Occams' Razor) tends to lean in that direction.

So in further pursuit of this insanity you will ultimately come to that which emerges without cause; a self-begotten aspect of the primordial. Ineffable is the acausal of negative existence. That which is at the end of this road, and also at its' beginning.

2. There's more than one way to answer this, and I would say they're all right, more or less. I recall back in 2005, approximately. There was this dude that I used to talk to late at night(or very early) in the AOL Metaphysics room, his screen name was DewHickey, so yeah, he was the (spiritual) metaphysics guy, and there was this one other guy his screen name was CoolMedCat, and he was the science physics guy, and I would say I learned more from the latter, but anyway. One night I did ask Dew this very question, and he very matter of factly said "It's made of light". So you could say that answer stuck with me. Here it is nearly two decades later.

You could say that it's made of energy, with "light" being a more descriptive form of that, but this isn't the visible portion of the EM Spectrum we're talking about here. More like an unknown element of the spectrum. We also know that energy and matter are just different manifestations of the same fundamental concept, which is to say, it could be a combination of subtle material as well as energy, but what would be key here is that it would not be gross material since its' existence would be so independent of spatial dimensions that it would be understood, for all intents and purposes, to function as a zero volume parameter. Which aligns with the zero volume aspect of the primordial. This is consciousness we are talking about here, and as such, not only precedes the spatial dimensions, but is a creator of them via a process of subconscious expansion, usually. This consciousness is more than likely a most fundamental aspect of existence.

1. As above so below, as within so without. In Hermetic Qabalah, or, the Tree Of Life. There are two very significant emanations; they are the first, and the tenth. The first and the last - 10 is a reflection of 01 as initially stated. The archangel of the first, Metatron : meta, Greek for that which transcends, is above(the spirit), or, above and beyond, and for the tenth : Sandalphon : sandal, at the foot, or, that which is below(the soul). These two sephiroth are at the head, and at the foot of what is commonly referred "the pillar of consciousness". It is the middle pillar, and the subject of many prominent occult rituals, if that's your thing.

When it comes to the "spirit" and the "soul". I have devised my own little analogy for these, not so long ago. It is the analogy of the Hydra. The body of the Hydra represents primordial spirit, while the 'heads' represent individual manifestations, perspectives(or the souls) of the 'body' - the great spirit reservoir, sometimes referred as 'the Guf', tree or treasury of souls.

The primordial juggernaut, forever transcending the existential polarities of the Absolute; establishing a medium by which to experience via its' heads of existence. The heads come and go, where one may depart, two may grow.

I'm at a loss. I suppose it's time for the Joker Of Suicide again.

I've decided to make this into an eight part blog, as opposed to cramming everything into one, and also so we don't have to work as hard, or for as long - all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

Let the games begin ! Immediately, or in good time - we don't know yet.

The shorthand format is written as squares. With the top left being the 'section', which would be either upper or lower(body), designated by 'U' or 'L'. To the right of that is the 'area'. With upper body area one there are three 'targets' : chest(1), back(2) and shoulders(3), and for each 'target' there are various exercises that are rotated through in a circular fashion.

Thus, top left : section; top right : area; bottom left : target, and bottom right : exercise. There are four areas for upper body, and three for lower.

The format of each line is : U(upper body), L(lower body), U, L, U, U, L, U, and the line repeat 'til the end of page.

The number at the bottom of page is also of use. 1 - 4, if it is even that means start with right(arm, leg, or side), then left next time.

I can fit a lot of information on a single page with this format. I use barbells, but mostly dumbbells lately, I have heavy resistance bands and various anchors in the basement, one pair I made of heavy oak boards that weights are stacked onto then bands are connected. I also reproduced the lat pulldown using eye bolts and heavy bands with cable grips secured to sturdy structural supports in the basement. There is not one single exercise that I cannot duplicate using dumbbells, barbells, bands, hand grippers, and various other apparatus I have bought, or fabricated myself.

- this is a new page that I recently started. One line through a square means one set completed, an 'X' means two.

Things come and go, but from where do they come, and where do they go. A single facet of the infinite manifested in the context of unbounded diversity. In what time, in what place, does eternity even yield a time, or infinity a place. Another illusion from nowhere, this emergent nothingness. Ineffable, but still we write.

This individuality considered as illusion, an extension of the limitless, of the Absolute. If the alpha and omega be God, then this be the process which encapsulates these. A dream from nothing, of God itself, further perpetuated.

It is not what we are now that is most important, but what we are a part of, forever...

An electromagnetic field is not made of photons, the field itself is most fundamental, but its' disruption will release photons...

Just as a guitar string at rest propagates no longitudindal(sound) waves until it is plucked.

There is a root cause for everything, but in order for this root cause to exist, there must exist a context, and that context is eternity. Eternity encapsulates all things that have a beginning and an end, of which itself, it does not. Eternity itself is not a thing, it is negation of things, for any thing to exist, it must have a beginning, and is therefore, not eternal.

Existential polarity is the most basic and fundamental aspect of eternity, it is the primordial root of polarity that forms a basis for the manifesting of force to forms. The negative aspects appear first in the form of repellant dark energy to material electrons, and the positive in the attractive force of gravity to material protons.

This polarity is reflected all throughout existence. In any thing of any depth, or which measurement is attributed. From the subtle to the gross; the macrocosmic repellant and attractive forces further manifested microcosmically to the various emotional depths of feeling et al. The miniscule particles that serve as universal building blocks to the virtually infinite spectra found all throughout existence. All range from one form to the other; less to more, cold to hot, negative to positive. All things, in one form or another, exhibit the primordial root, of existential polarity.

Forces to be reckoned with, a fantasy; what does it even mean.

If the cause never ceases to exist then neither its effects, whatever happens, will again, or would not have at all...

Eventually ALL finite things will end, but their RETURN is inevitable. The grains of sand that move through the hourglass of time are not infinite. Although they may appear ephemeral and isolated, indeed they are not in eyes of eternity.

When, yet again, time has run its course and all the finite specks of creation find themselves at the BOTTOM of the hourglass, (Chronos) the finite linear aspect of the infinite one shall invert it, again, and again, and again, for all eternity. This is the return, the eternal return, of EVERY single finite speck of individuality, of existence.

For eternity is a BEAST that will forever consume and renew ALL of existence, ABSOLUTELY!

Conditioned to think of paint or pigment as color, but it's actually more of a magical substance that alters the frequency of rebounding light waves. Paint has no actual color, but its' material composition is magical in that it can alter ambient energy that results in a metaphorical pouring out of color into the microcosm via the visual mechanism - ergo - magic in plain sight. No pun intended.

The beauty, the aesthetics of color, and the pigments whose function serve as medium for the resulting energetic(serpentine) transverse waves that propagate the terrestrial as well as the aethereal medium.

One may call it science, but in all actuality, it is a single facet of a greater, and for all intents and purposes, ineffable illusion, that goes to the very core of existence, and beyond...

An aethyr is any spatiotemporal emergence initiated by consciousness which should be differentiated from mere imaginings which are not exactly the same. The two most recognized would be the macrocosm and its' inferior microcosmic reflection, the dreamscape.

These aethyrs appear to have material substance, but this is only illusion. The nature of these can be extrapolated to that of mind, or, consciousness. It is difficult to assess the exact nature of primordial consciousness, although a 'ballpark' can be achieved in comparing the emergent properties of the macrocosm to that of the subconscious dreamlike properties of its' microcosmic counterparts.

In both respects, as would be expected. There appears this mysterious acausal parameter that initiates consciousness followed by these emergent properties. We don't know the when, why, or how we will dream, just as it is unclear why there even is a universe, as opposed to a static eternal state of nothingness, only that 'something' happens.

With 'time' being a factor, and with every passing moment, however small, there is a thought of these 'past aethyrs', and whether or not they exist right now, at this very moment. These aethyrs being bounded by negative existence. There is nothing beyond them, neither time nor space. They are everything, there is nothing else, neither would there be, how could there be. How can they even be, only God knows, or perhaps even not.

Material can be put equal to energy, so then, what is energy made of? Energy is made of force carrying particles that traverse the spatial medium at the speed of light in wave form.

So then, what are the particles and waves made of? Archetypes, of, possibility, intention, thoughts, mind, or, consciousness - nothing. Zero volume, reality is an illusion, a dream, but a very persistent one as Mr. Albert Einstein said; also a bit more organized and substantial as well.

So my take on it, in which I would place in a reasonable context, only focuses on an entity that is a light bearer, or, bringer; is, or is in control of light energy.

The serpentine association fits well since its' mode of transport is analogous to that of energy in the form of a 'sine' wave, noting that 'sine' and 'serpentine' are quite similar. Similar transport, different mediums, or, elements.

So there really isn't much trouble in making a significant and reasonable(scientific) connection between Lucifer, Satan, serpents, and light bringers, to energy and propagating(or slithering) serpentine energetic or materialistic waveforms.
