The ironic other side of the indescribable


Walter Kaufmann said that great art and great philosophy begin on the other side of the indescribable, but I think that is also where religion can advance. Mystics insist on the ineffable, in not describing their God, but it is the Evolutionary Outward Path of evolution to Godhood that gives an objective correlation to the Involutionary Inward Path to the God or Father Within.

Understood as the basic mystical foundation, the Inward God is the sole goal of the great religions, and that is fine, good, traditional, but it is the Outward Path of evolution that completes the real path to the Godhood which is first experienced as the ineffable Father-Within.

The ironic thing is, the only way to see or experience the God Within is by blocking the very means to reaching Godhood in material-supermaterial evolution! Having no material or sensual dependencies, which is the condition required for experiencing the Father-Within, is the mirror experience of fulfilling the material and sensual dependencies in attaining Godhood through evolution!

The Twofold Path does not reject the Inward Father Within because it is a great virtual experience of real Godhood attained through evolution, we do not reject traditional religion. The Outward Path helps explain the ineffable qualities of the Inward Path, as great art, philosophy and religion should do. And we open up the Great Spiritual Blockade against attaining real Godhood in the cosmos.  Now it is the real Godhood of evolution which will become more describable as we evolve.
