The Faculty of Anamnesis
Describing the ability of Hyperborean Initiates to explore cultural Records and the sixteen steps involved in its application.
The faculty of anamnesis stands as a unique and powerful ability possessed by Hyperborean Initiates, enabling them to delve into the depths of Cultural Records and unravel the hidden layers of reality.
Unlike the Paśu, bound to the superficial perception of the "extensive present," the Initiate can access the "comprehensive present" (HICP), perceiving the full extent of the chrono-cultural series contained within a Cultural Record. This faculty allows for both visual and physical exploration of Cultural Records, granting the Initiate a depth of understanding unattainable through ordinary means.
The Mechanics of Anamnesis
A Hyperborean Tool for Exploring Reality
The Hyperborean Wisdom outlines a methodical, sixteen-step process for applying the faculty of anamnesis. These steps, representing volitional acts driven by the Initiate's "luciferic graceful will," enable the safe and effective navigation of the intricate and potentially perilous landscape of the superstructures.
Constituting the Actual System:
- First Step: The Initiate identifies and affirms the Referent Cultural Object (RCO), the anchor point for their exploration.
- Second Step: The Initiate identifies and affirms the Emerging Cultural Object (ECO) in relation to the RCO, establishing the connection of meaning that forms the actual system.
- Third Step: The Initiate affirms the constituted actual system, bringing it to the forefront of their conscious attention. This establishes the Cultural Record as an accessible target for exploration.
Preparing for Exploration
- Fourth Step: The Initiate situates their Ego in the HICP position, adopting the perspective of the "comprehensive present" necessary for perceiving the full depth of the Cultural Record.
- Fifth Step: The Initiate locates the coversign (R), the symbolic representation of the RCO, on the ECO. This act marks the beginning of active engagement with the Cultural Record.
Exploring the Cultural Record
- Sixth Step: Using the Gibur Rune as the "Sword of Wotan," the Initiate opens the Cultural Record by symbolically removing the coversign (R). This unveils the chrono-cultural series, revealing the historical content contained within.
- Seventh Step: The Initiate employs the "step-by-step runic resignation technique," carefully examining the axiological superobjects that comprise the chrono-cultural series. This process can be either visual, observing the images on the "cultural screen," or physical, entering the cultural space of a selected superobject.
Navigating the Superstructure
- Eighth Step: If physical exploration is chosen, the Initiate enters the "cultural space" of a selected superobject. This involves a conscious act of placing meaning on the superobject, causing transcendent Time to flow within its boundaries.
- Ninth Step: The Initiate performs the strategic locating of the Source of Abraxas. This crucial step involves identifying the RCO within the superobject's cultural space, providing a vital point of reference and ensuring safe navigation.
Transituating through Spaces of Signification
- Tenth Step: If necessary, the Initiate opens the χ (Chi) door, the symbolic gateway leading to the transituative nucleus of the superconcept. This act requires the application of the "Key of Jan," a specific sign revealed to the Initiate by the Hyperborean Pontiff.
- Eleventh Step: The Initiate passes through the χ (Chi) door into the transituative nucleus, encountering the most perplexing aspect of the Terrible Secret of Maya. This space contains axiological objects shared with other macrocosmic superconcepts, offering the possibility of transituating to different spaces of signification.
- Twelfth Step: The Initiate, exercising a firm and unwavering will, transituates to another space of signification, navigating the multidimensional reality revealed through the Cultural Record.
Returning to the Habitual Context
- Thirteenth Step: The Initiate, recognizing the impossibility of turning back directly, continues their advance and opens the second χ (Chi) door, accessing the "return chamber" of the superconcept.
- Fourteenth Step: The Initiate passes through the second χ (Chi) door, now oriented towards their point of origin.
- Fifteenth Step: The Initiate returns to the entrance and exit chamber, retracing their path through the Cultural Record.
Alternative Exit
- Sixteenth Step: If required, the Initiate exits the return chamber through the coversign (E), venturing into an "inverse world" possessing a reversed axiological context.
Cautions and Considerations
The faculty of anamnesis, while incredibly powerful, is not without its inherent risks. The superstructures, animated by psychoid Archetypes, are dynamic and potentially hostile. The Initiate must approach their exploration with strategic awareness, guided by the principles of the Hyperborean Wisdom and a steadfast "luciferic graceful attitude." Indiscriminate use of this faculty can lead to capture by the superstructure or entrapment within the labyrinthine depths of Maya.
The mastery of anamnesis, combined with a deep understanding of Cultural Records and the Terrible Secret of Maya, offers the Hyperborean Initiate a unique ability to navigate the multidimensional reality. This faculty, employed with wisdom and discipline, empowers the Initiate to move beyond the limitations of ordinary perception and strive for the ultimate liberation of their spirit.
