It seems to me that the will-to-power
of intellectuals and priests has typically attempted to bury reality
in ideas. Contrary to Plato and to traditional religions, the world
of sights and sounds ranks higher than the world of ideas. The Gods of philosophers and ascetics tend to be Ideas, sacred Words, an inner experience of bliss, which they
call the God or Father Within.
It is sights and sounds that are
anchored in reality, and the realm of Ideas are only a reflection of
reality. This is how we unblock the Great Spiritual Blockade which
has blocked, or at least slowed, our evolution toward Godhood for thousands
of years.
Godhood is material or supermaterial,
and this puts Godhood in the world and of the world. We
do not have to reject traditional religious Ideas, but we can see the
Inward-Path-God of religion, and the Ideas of Plato, as only a first
symbolic glimpse of real Godhood which can be reached through
material/supermaterial evolution in the Outward Path.
In the same way it is not the Idea of
Beauty that is most beautiful, it is object of the beautiful
definition that is beautiful. The Idea only dimly reflects real
material beauty, not the other way around. The same goes for the
beautiful formulas of mathematics which only reflect the real object
they define.
