Higher Will, Iwa, and Tanha - A Comparison 6 comments

6 Jun 2006 @ 14:17, by Max Sandor Iwa in Ifa can be seen as I-wa, the principle of wa, the latter meaning 'to guide, to steer'. The Buddhist concept Tanha if often sometimes translated as 'thirsting Will' or as 'Thirst'. In Gnosticisms and its off-shoots, notably ill-famed Aleister Crowley, the same phenomenon is called 'Will'. Likewise Schopenhauer and Kant are calling this instance 'Wille' but from a different angle. Because the word 'will' will be easily confounded with the assumed 'will' of the human mind, I'd like to call it 'Higher Will', or the will of the 'Higher Self'. Another formulation of my theorem from Sunday, which created some confusions, hehehe, would be that 'what tanha/iwa/higher-will is 'thirsting' that will arrive... This would be all very cool, if it wouldn't be for the circumstance that the 'ordinary human' does NOT have awareness of what exactly s/he wants on a higher level. I call this layer 'superconscious' in contrast to the conscious and subconscious levels. The are of enlightening could be defined as bringing this 'super will' into the realm of consciousness and to make this state last for more than some minutes. In these rare moments, the 'ordinary will' is non-existent. A lot of silly efforts arise from the observation of the latter, for example the efforts in some religions of 'subdueing' that will or surpressing it, all of which will make it only stronger. We are experimenting here in Brazil with variations of a polarity super-charging process with combinations of the basic polarity Otura-Iwori (one of the 256 base polarities, or Odu, in Ifa) in order to create a feasible process for 'everyone'. We'll see... In the meantime a clarification: Definition of Super-Energy: "An virtual energy created when base energies are sustained in a DEPOLARIZED way." Most depolarization processes, such as Zivorad's PEAT Neutralization, create the state of mind called 'Pleroma' in Gnostics. This state is highly beneficial and the process depolarizes a polarity profoundly. HOWEVER, the result is an EMPTY, UNLIMITED space which is missing the 'super energy' that the Being REALLY wants (see the theorem!!) An example more close to Earth is music: the listener to music is not interested in the rhythm and notes as such and by themselves BUT IN THE MOOD they create when performed. The mood is to the notes of the music what the super-energy is to the energy of the base polarities. Another formulation of my theorem would be therefore: A Being strives for the experience of a certain mood. If it cannot arrive at it in a clean way, it will substiture it with 'dirty' polarities or any possible trick to arrive at it. The lengthy scripts we see in many archetypes ALL strive to arrive at a final mood. An interesting process is the realization of one's own fairy-tale or myth of life. (I don't remember anymore the organization(s) that are administering this process in America). If successfully coached, the person can enter a state of super-awareness of one's own super-conscious desires (and may find the truth in the theorem stated on Sunday!).
