Preliminary response to Taoism

Nourishing the Spirit

Human beings are the image of Godhood not the image of the Kosmos.

How do we nourish the energy of the Spirit? Through upward reproduction and evolution to higher states of energy and evolution.

Nourishing the Spirit means the Spirit needs to evolve within the vehicle of the body, of matter, gaining evolution for the Spirit.

Not “chi,” not “prana,” but the Holy Spirit within life, which is epiphenomenal, not empty, not nothingness. It is this Spirit which must be managed, but not managed like Taoism, Hinduism or Buddhism, which seek to manipulate the chi/prana through abstinence, etc., for inward involutionary changes in the human being only, not evolutionary change.

Upward evolution means acquiring greater truth, beauty, goodness and power.

The “balancing,” or going with the flow, means the flow of evolution, not merely balancing human internal forces with so called natural forces. The balancing is between the satanic forces of devolution and the evolutionary forces that lead to Godhood, aided by the Spirit which is the Will to Godhood.

Accepting the status quo can cause devolution and death, there must be an active, not passive, affirmation of evolution and the Will to Godhood, in conjunction with order and stability.
