Musicians and painters are not genuinely Christian types of artist but akin, in their soulful and spiritual extremes, to Fundamentalists and Transcendentalists for whom the heart and the lungs are of more relevance than the brain. For they are motivated not by volume but by time and space respectively, and thus stand to writers Of course, none of the above types of artist should be confounded with their anti-art, and more objective, counterparts, who are less religious absolute or political relative than economic relative or scientific absolute.
Antimusicians and antipainters are less Fundamentalists and Transcendentalists, respectively, than Naturalists and Idealists, just as antiwriters are less Christians than Materialists. The dividing line between the unconscious and the sub-unconscious has the Mother on one side of it and the Blessed Virgin on the other, the former heathen, the latter Christian. Strictly speaking, the Blessed Virgin is commensurate with the pseudo- subunconscious Hence where the Blessed Virgin epitomizes the pseudo- subunconscious , the Mary Child, or female child, epitomizes the sub-unconscious in its genuine, or absolutist, manifestation.
The consciousness of Christ, the Son, leads to the pseudo- subconsciousness of the Father, who is attracted towards the unconsciousness of the Mother. By comparison with the pseudo- subconsciousness , in cerebral emotions, of the Father, the subconsciousness of Allah, as indeed of his satanic antithesis, is manifestly genuine; for it is a subconsciousness not of the brain but of the heart, not of the intellect but of the soul. By contrast to the superconsciousness of the Holy Spirit of Heaven, the super-unconsciousness of the Clear Light of the Void is an inception and not a culmination, a beginning and not an end, an idealism and not a transcendentalism, a mysticism and not a gnosticism , a vacuum and not a plenum, a root and not a centre.
Those who make it through to the superconscious will not only be beyond nature but the supernatural as well, being the supercultural refutation of supernature. They will be free from supernatural law for supercultural Heaven, free from superfeminine conscience for supermasculine bliss, free from the primal antibeing of the Creator for the supreme being of the ultimate Creation of man , free from the Universe for the universal self. One can no more have socialism without capitalism than Socialism is largely concerned with the distribution, on as wide and equitable a basis as possible, of wealth, but to create wealth in the first place one must have capitalism.
Too much wealth and too little socialism, or too much socialism and too little wealth The thing is to strike a balance between capitalism and socialism, so that there will always be wealth to distribute to as many people as possible. Yet this does not mean to say that such a balance is the best of all possible worlds. It is simply the best relative to the sort of open societies in which most Western countries currently exist. There are still other possibilities The absence of a workable balance between capitalism and socialism spells one of two things: Too much capitalism and the likelihood is that one will end-up with a fascist economy run on state capitalist lines.
Too much socialism, on the other hand, and the likelihood is of a communist economy run on state socialist lines. Neither economy can work: Hence if the worst is not to come to the worst, capitalism and socialism must be in balance As capitalism draws closer to the People, and thus further from the possibility of Fascism, it becomes populist, and thus a reflection, in terms of the wider distribution and availability of shares, of the social collectivism obtaining among those who are the principal recipients of the wealth-creating process, namely the People themselves.
A society, on the contrary, in which not the social collective but the capitalist individual For if the self-serving Capitalist can gain control of the State, he will use it as a tool of social oppression, and this may lead, in due course of reactionary time, to a communist backlash, such that will strive to take over the State in the People's name and with a view to eradicating capitalism. Hence the one extreme may lead to the other, and both are inherently fallible.
Only when the State is an arbiter between Industry and the People, the Few and the Many, rather than on the side of either the Few Fascism or the Many Communism , is it doing what it should be doing, which is to say, serving the interests of all! Obviously, for the State to be an arbitrator between Industry and the People it must be democratic, and thus reflective of the sort of class divisions which characterize a vibrant and productive society. In sexual terms, one could say that whereas the liberal State, balanced between capitalism and socialism, is heterosexual, the fascist State, by contrast, is homosexual and the communist State comparatively lesbian.
For whereas the liberal State reflects both male and female characteristics, the fascist State, centred in capitalism, is overly masculine, while the communist State, rooted in socialism, is no-less overly feminine, and neither of the latter can expect to reproduce, much less produce, anything worthwhile. Repression of the feminine element by the masculine Sooner or later, however, what has been systematically repressed will rise-up with a vengeance and wreak revolutionary justice on the system responsible for its repression.
The result will be either a swing from one extreme to the other or, failing that, the establishment of something approaching a balance between the masculine and feminine elements in what one would call a liberal democracy. Hence the heterosexual nature of liberal democracy contrasts with both the homosexual nature of 'capital democracy' or Fascism and the lesbian nature of 'social democracy' or Communism.
Whereas the relationship between, say, the Conservative Party and the Labour Party in Britain is effectively heterosexual, reflecting masculine capitalist and feminine socialist interests, the Liberal Party latterly Liberal Democrats is effectively androgynous, since combining both capitalist and socialist, masculine and feminine elements within itself in what is, I would guess, the quintessence of Liberalism. Thus unlike both the Conservative and Labour parties, the Liberal Democrats can alternate between capitalism and socialism, even to the extent of nationalizing industry, services, etc.
For centrism allows for both right- and left-wing alternatives, even though the chances are that, being centrist, the Liberal Party will be less inclined to nationalize and thus embrace contrary extremes than to maintain, as far as possible, a laissez-faire approach to both capitalism and socialism, seeking neither an overly masculine nor an overly feminine bias such that would prove too politically divisive , but adhering to the androgynous middle-ground. More specifically, it seems to me that if the heathen unconscious, the unconscious of the Mother, is of the World, then the World is a kind of 'good Hell', and thus a sphere of unconscious sensuality which contrasts with the 'bad Heaven', so to speak, of the heathen conscious, the conscious of the Son, whose writerly intellectuality leads back towards the heathen subconscious, the subconscious of the Father in what is, I suppose, a 'bad Subheaven ', given the emotional connotations which accrue to the readerly context in question.
Perhaps, in view of our more extreme terminology, the use of equivalent extremes like ' Subhell ' and ' Superheaven ' is more appropriate here, since we are dealing in more absolutist contexts which, unlike the World and Purgatory, are evil and good through and through. For, after all, the Blessed Virgin is a vacuum of virginity, and thus a World-denying refutation of the heathen plenum of fecund motherhood which, as we have argued, corresponds to a 'good Hell', a paradoxical and notably relative description.
Now the Virgin, or the context of adult virginity, is no 'good Hell' but a 'bad Hell', a Subhell of Christian vacuity, and thus the guarantor of resurrectional revolt, via the Christ Child, towards the Holy Ghost, the spiritual plenum of prayerful contemplation and visionary transcendence such that contrasts, in the most superheavenly terms, with the vacuous chatter, no matter how prayerful, of those who remain moored to the Blessed Virgin.
So the real Christian Hell and Heaven, viz. There could be no greater distinction, in Christianity, than that between the Blessed Virgin and the Holy Ghost, the ' Subhell ' of the one a precondition of the ' Superheaven ' relative to the Trinity of the other. Yet this same distinction is even more characteristic of Social Transcendentalism, my own contribution to religious evolution, wherein we would have to contemplate a more radical, because even more absolutist, distinction between the sub-unconscious of the Mary Child, or female child, and the superconscious of the Holy Spirit of Heaven, the former leading, via the Second Coming, to the latter, as we move beyond the outer limits of World-denying virginity to the inner-parameters of Heaven-affirming spirituality, a spirituality not centred in the brain but in the lungs, and thus reflective of an airy plenum such that correlates with 'Kingdom Come' and its promise of 'Eternal Life', a life ultimately implying the overcoming of man and his supersession , gradually and methodically, by ever-more transcendent post-human life forms.
It is with the Holy Spirit of Heaven, however, that Heaven finally attains to its superconscious peak, a peak at once supermasculine , supercultural , and superdivine. This is no Christian Roman Catholic Heaven, but the long-awaited Social Transcendentalist Superheaven that is both a refutation of and revolt against the socialistic Subhell of feminist subnature and sub-unconscious evil.
Hence a joyful culmination to evolution, as opposed to the woeful horror vacui inception of evolution or, more probably, devolution But if this Clear Light, this 'Judaic Creator', was superfeminine or supernatural, then it was, as we earlier argued, super-unconscious, and thus not heavenly contrary to what Biblical tradition has taught , but effectively superhellish , i. But this fall of Satan from Jehovah, of the 'Clear Fire' from the 'Clear Light', was into the subconscious and thus, as we have seen, something submasculine , subcultural , and, above all, subheavenly.
It was the beginnings, in proton positivity , of Heaven, albeit, given the cosmic context, in scientific and therefore outer and pseudo terms. It was not the Devil that fell from God, but God from the Devil or, more specifically, the Satanic Subgod from the Jehovahesque Superdevil , a subconscious Subheaven from a super-unconscious Superhell!
Verily, the fact is that in the Beginning was not God but the Superdevil , and that this first revolt against vacuous negativity was not a rise heathen , still less a resurrection Christian , but a fall pagan , the fall of the Satanic Subgod into Subheaven!
Doubtless, the fact that we are accustomed, through Biblical conditioning, to thinking in terms of the fall of Satan and his angels, viz. Yet it is no less characteristic of this Satanic Fall that it reflects a revolt against an original vacuum In other words, we are accustomed to equating deliverance, and thus divinity, with the 'super' plane, whereas anything prefixed by a 'sub' automatically puts us on our guard against diabolical possibilities.
Yet while the supernatural may be 'higher than', because anterior to, the subcultural , its association with the super-unconscious should leave one in little doubt that it corresponds to a superhellish and therefore superdiabolic reality, the very reality that led to the Satanic Revolt, and thus to the establishment, in solar positivity , of the subdivine. Such a level of subdivinity , corresponding to the subconscious, was the first manifestation of free will over natural determinism, and the resurrectional revolt of the Holy Spirit of Heaven will be the last!
Considering that the Satanic 'Fallen Angel' corresponds to a scientific Subheaven of approximately solar constitution, then it need not surprise us if Allah corresponds to a religious Subheaven , in subconsciousness , of soulful constitution, the Subheaven of the heart and its religious fundamentalism. For it seems to me that, contrary to my customary evaluations, Allah is less the Holy Soul of Hell than the Holy Soul of Subheaven , and thus the religious antithesis to the Clear Fire of Time or scientific Subheaven in which Satan has his throne.
For the poles of the Christian Heaven appertain to the brain, wherein the purgatorial intellect has its Christic throne, whereas the fundamentalist Heaven of Allah appertains to the heart, and the transcendentalist Heaven of the Holy Spirit of Heaven to the lungs, the former genuinely subheavenly and the latter no less genuinely superheavenly. Now just as the transcendentalist Heaven is antithetical, as we argued, to the Jehovahesque Superhell of the Clear Light of Space the Void , so the fundamentalist Heaven is antithetical to the Satanic Subheaven of the Clear Fire of Time, pretty much as a vampire, say Count Dracula, to the sun.
In fact, one cannot conceive of a fundamentalist afterlife, or eternity, except in relation to vampires, since the heart cannot survive death like, to some extent, the brain, and therefore no survival of death is possible to Fundamentalists within strictly fundamentalist terms except in relation to the morally dubious realm of vampirism, wherein the vampire sustains an occult life beyond the grave by gorging himself on the blood of his chosen victims. Doubtless, the transcendentalist eternity, when it comes to pass, will be much less occult and far more utopian, given the moral distinction which indubitably exists between the supercultural and the subcultural , the spirit and the soul.
And it will outlast, by far, the Christian afterlife of cerebral transmutations in the grave! Where the 'sub' contexts, whether conscious or unconscious, are immoral, the 'super' contexts, whether conscious or unconscious, are moral, while the intermediate contexts, both conscious and unconscious, are amoral, albeit with a contrary bias, so that the conscious, for example, is amoral with a positive bias towards the [immoral] subconscious Father and the unconscious is amoral with a negative bias towards the [immoral] sub-unconscious Virgin.
Hence whereas the super-unconscious corresponds, in its superfemininity , to a noumenal Hell, the Superhell of supernature , the unconscious corresponds, in its femininity, to an amoral Hell, the worldly Hell of nature, and the sub-unconscious, in its subfemininity , to an immoral Hell, the Subhell of subnature on both Catholic and feminist terms, the former with reference to the Virgin Mary, and the latter with reference to what I have called the Mary Child. Conversely, whereas the subconscious corresponds, in its submasculinity , to an immoral Heaven, the Subheaven of subculture on both scientific and religious terms, e.
Politically speaking, that which is of the unconscious is left wing and that, by contrast, which is of the conscious Now in the case of the conscious options, things proceed from left to right, as from the subconscious to the superconscious via the conscious, whereas in the case of the unconscious options things proceed, by contrast, from right to left, as from the super-unconscious, which is extreme right-wing, to the sub-unconscious via the unconscious. This is largely because the conscious, or masculine, aspect of life evolves, while the unconscious, or feminine, aspect of it devolves, the former towards the supermasculine superconscious , and the latter away from the superfeminine super-unconscious.
The one tradition converges towards an Omega Point, while the other tradition diverges from an Alpha Point, the former transcendentalist and profoundly religious, the latter idealistic and profoundly scientific.
Hence although the superfeminine super-unconscious has an extreme right-wing correlation, it is the correlation of a scientific Beginning rather than, as in the no-less extreme right-wing case of the supermasculine superconscious , of a religious End. Conversely, from the heathen Left of the Mother to the heathen Extreme Left of the Father via the right-wing culture of the Son.
Note that in relation to the Trinity, the Father is extreme left-wing, the Son right wing, and the Holy Ghost extreme right-wing. The Jehovahesque Clear Light of the Void is effectively extreme right, whereas both the Satanic and Moslem contexts are extreme left - the former scientifically and the latter religiously and more completely than the Christian Father, whose extreme left-wing status is relative to the cerebral subconscious, as opposed to the soulful subconscious of the heart.
By contrast to Catholicism, Protestantism is effectively heathen , since the Mother, the Son, and the Father are less genuinely religious figures than secular deities when compared to the Virgin Mary, the Christ Child, and the Holy Ghost. The Mother's correspondence is not to Hell but to the World; the Son's correspondence is not to World-denying asceticism but to Purgatory; and the Father's correspondence is not to Superheaven but to Subheaven. However one looks at it, Protestantism is a heathen rejection of Catholicism, the true Church of Christianity , and thus an affirmation of the World.
Where the Catholic Church is true, the Protestant one is false - a heathen lie as opposed to a Christian truth. Broadly speaking, Anglicanism is the denomination par excellence of the Mother, Puritanism the denomination par excellence of the Son, and Presbyterianism the denomination par excellence of the Father. It could also be said that the Cromwellian revolt against Charles I amounted to the rise of the Son at the expense of the Mother, or Puritanism at Anglicanism's expense, and thus bore a paradoxical resemblance to the fall of Satan from Jehovah, since in each case we have a conscious revolt against unconscious tradition, and thus a struggle for culture against nature, or masculinity against femininity.
The success of the Puritan Revolt inevitably eased the way for Presbyterianism, and thus for Christian fundamentalism the Father. It also inevitably eased the way for satanic naturalism and, latterly, Moslem fundamentalism, the more genuinely extreme left-wing parallels to the above.
The Protestant tradition, being heathen, is against Christian extremism, since more a matter of worldly affirmation than of World-denying Hell and Purgatory-denying Heaven. In short, Protestantism encourages an amoral equalitarianism as opposed to the sort of immoral and moral extremes one would associate with Hell and Heaven.
It is not concerned with the sub-unconscious and the superconscious but with the unconscious and the conscious, neither of which are genuinely religious. Thus it fights shy of diabolic and divine extremes, just as Buddhism, another heathen religion or, more correctly, pseudo-religion fights shy of pleasure in order to avoid pain.
The Catholic Church is in the business of maintaining both Hell and Heaven; for you can't have Heaven without Hell, or a resurrectional revolt without something hellish to be in revolt against. Protestantism, on the contrary, is in the business of maintaining the World and Purgatory, and will defend its moderation on the grounds that the price of Heaven is too high.
What it wants is the happiness of the greater number, or equality of opportunity and other such equalitarian ideals, not high and low, or up and down, or 'super' and 'sub'. Yet by denying such contrary moral extremes it rejects God, and hence Christianity. Amorality cannot be morally justified.
It is simply a heathen failing which perpetuates the World. And by 'nationalism' I mean the nation, or that which is composed of a variety of different tribes or, more accurately, is the product of the interbreeding of diverse tribes into a single people who share common goals and beliefs. A nation is certainly more than the sum of its parts, whereas a tribe is, or can be, a part of the sum which refuses or is unable to embrace the other parts of the nation in which it may find itself.
This and other factors combine to distance the tribe from the nation, keeping it closer to the unconscious. In fact, tribes can be supertribal super-unconscious , tribal unconscious , or subtribal sub-unconscious , while nations can likewise be subnational subconscious , national conscious , or supernational superconscious. The Jews were - and in diaspora terms continue to be - a supertribal category, one affiliated, by religious tradition, to the superfeminine realm of super-unconscious supernature , viz.
Were it not for their Judaic traditions the Jews would surely have been unable to survive on supertribal terms for as long as they did indeed, it is debatable whether they would have been scattered, like light from a vacuum, by historical circumstances in the first place , and it would be no exaggeration to say that before the establishment of the State of Israel there was no Israeli nation but only Jewish supertribalists spread far and wide across the world whose allegiance to Jehovah sustained them in their superdiabolic predicament. An allegiance to Satan, on the other hand, would have required a subnational standing, and it is my view that there is such a thing as a Moslem subnation which fights shy of both supertribal criteria and supertribalists alike.
Bolshevism, communism, socialism, and other such variations on a left-wing or unconscious theme Thus by selecting a single class from among the various classes that generally go into the composition of a nation, the Bolsheviks, Communists, and such like were indubitably more tribal-minded than nation-minded, more tribalist than nationalist, and one would hesitate to believe that communism was inter-national, so to speak, when its appeal to the proletariat - 'proletarians of the world unite' - would suggest an intertribal resolve likely to put it at loggerheads with nationalism.
Another and, in some sense, more contemporary form of tribalism is feminism, which selects gender as the 'tribe' with which to inflict unconscious or, more probably, sub-unconscious evil upon society and, in particular, the male sex. Hence it is the feminist mode of tribalism which, focusing on gender rather than class or race, is the contemporary mode par excellence , and the one most likely, in consequence, to spark the resurrectional revolt of supermasculine supernationalism , the ultimate nationalism of the superman.
In fact, both socialism and capitalism would be inconceivable without a Protestant precondition, the heathen essence of which spawned a compromise between the World and Purgatory, proletarians and bourgeoisie, which finds its political analogue in liberal democracy whether parliamentary and preponderantly bourgeois, or republican and no-less predominantly proletarian. Too much socialism and one would have the proletarian exclusivity of Communism. Too much capitalism, on the other hand, and one has the bourgeois exclusivity of Fascism.
Yet neither of these heathen extremes can work, because socialism and capitalism are as mutually dependent on each other as the World and Purgatory or, in more genuinely extreme contexts, Hell and Heaven. Communism is no more Hell than Fascism is Heaven. The proletariat no more make a sub-unconscious category than the bourgeoisie add-up to a superconscious one. Such religious extremes are more pertinent, as I have already argued, to a Christian tradition, not to a heathen one, and such a tradition, besides transcending class, also transcends race.
