The “innovation” in metaphysics comes from the Evolutionary Outward Path

Spirit” IS matter, but the highest epiphenomenal matter, it “dominates” matter in that it can also be defined as the Will To Godhood, or Tirips, activating within life---so there is no need for a duality here. And, again, evolution is not “blind and pointless.” The lesser CAN evolve into the higher, just as the child grows to be a man. The Logos is definition or principle only, which is less than the Object God which the Logos defines. It is time to affirm the real thing, not merely the definition of the real thing. Matter CAN create the Spirit and Soul and Godhood out of itself.

Who says “there is no innovation in metaphysics?” Perhaps not in the religions that stem from the Perennial Tradition, but they are all of the non-material spiritual Involutionary Inward Path. The “innovation” in metaphysics come from the Evolutionary Outward Path, which is really a recognition of the sacred direction of material evolution to ascending levels of Godhood.
