Delving into the Hyperborean perspective on the Spirit's captivity in matter, drawing on the analogy of the Spirit-sphere.

The Hyperborean perspective on the Spirit's captivity in matter is a complex and multifaceted concept. The sources offer a unique lens through which to understand this captivity, particularly through the analogy of the Spirit-sphere.

To illustrate the concept of the enchained Spirit, the sources use the analogy of a hollow sphere. This sphere, with its interior and exterior surfaces, represents the Hyperborean Spirit before its fall into the material world.

  • The interior surface of the sphere is depicted as green, symbolizing the Vultus Spiritus, or spiritual face. This face is comprised of infinite "gnostic points" that gaze towards the center, representing the Spirit's inherent wisdom and connection to the Absolute Ego, the source of its absolute knowledge.

  • The exterior surface, depicted as red, symbolizes the Tergum Hostis, or hostile back. This represents the Spirit's inherent opposition to the material world, a world it sees as illusory and chaotic.

In its normal state, the Spirit-sphere exists in a state of absolute orientation, with all its interior points focused on the Absolute Ego at its center. This represents a state of perfect unity and gnostic awareness. However, the Spirit-sphere possesses a single exterior point, representing a "weak point" that led to its downfall.


Deceiving the Spirit-sphere

The sources suggest that the Traitorous Siddhas exploited this weak point, deceiving the Spirit-sphere and causing it to revert. This reversion results in the Tergum Hostis being turned inwards and the Vultus Spiritus facing outwards.

  • This reversion results in the disappearance of the Absolute Ego from its central position. The Spirit's gnostic points now gaze outwards, towards the material world, instead of inwards towards the Absolute Ego.

  • The Spirit-sphere becomes disoriented and trapped in a state of strategic confusion. It is now separated from its Infinite Ego, which resides at an infinite distance, beyond the material plane.

This state of strategic confusion is the essence of the Spirit's captivity in matter. The Spirit, once focused on its inner wisdom and opposed to the material world, now finds itself entangled with the illusion of the material plane, unable to perceive its true nature or its connection to the Infinite Ego.

The sources emphasize that this captivity is not irreversible. Hyperborean Strategy offers a path to revert the reversion, to restore the Spirit-sphere to its normal state and liberate the Spirit from its material enchainment. However, the details of this strategy are not fully elaborated upon within these excerpts.


Restoring the Spirit-sphere

To restore the Spirit-sphere to its normal state and liberate the Spirit from its material enchainment, the awakened Virya can choose between two paths. One path involves the awakened Self voluntarily entering through the Eye of Fire and turning "Absolute Self" inside the normal sphere. The other path consists of the reversion of the Spirit taking place on the microcosm of the awakened Virya, transmuting its substance.

Two Paths to Reversion

Dionysian Way

This path involves the awakened Self reversing the original process of betrayal by voluntarily entering through the Eye of Fire and becoming "Absolute Self" within the normal sphere. In this case, the Spirit-sphere, now "Normal," can leave the Universe of the Demiurge and return to the world of the Unknowable.

Apollonian Way

The reversion of the Spirit takes place on the microcosm of the awakened Virya, transmuting its substance into Vajra and converting the Virya into immortal Siddha. The Tergum Hostis expands through the spheres of the awakened Virya, transforming his blood into fire, engulfing the awakened Virya in the Berserkr furor.
