Look at what this crazed schizotypist wrote in the comment section... *The light is "the Devil", the darkness is the monotheistic God. Note that we certainly don't think the Devil exists when equating light with God. If we equate the Devil with darkness, then we have nothing to reference, in which case the Devil may as well not exist. Equating "the Devil", or anything else with Darkness categorically means that it can't be sited via scientific observations. The "Absolute" is God, which categorically can't be sited by scientific observations. The Absolute is analogous to an eternal stasis or zero entropy (coherence), and synonymous with unboundedness, pure freedom (no boundary conditions/rules) and infinite mass (again, boundless and static). Even though most everyone has gotten this issue wrong, there's literally no counter-argument to "Devil = Light, God = Darkness" that has any scientific or logical relevance. Any conter argument is simply sighting "darkness" as evidence, which is nonsense, while everyone already knows "God" can't the the object of scientific inquiry. The oversimplified "Big Bang" cosmology already references an hypothetical "primordial black hole" as the source of reality, but misinterprets its meaning and ultimate fate (as eternally pure stasis). Given that a "primordial black hole" is the logical prerequisite to an "expanding" universe, the Principle of Conspansive Duality per the CTMU implies that the "primordial black hole" is unchanging, while the "expanding" universe of scientific observations and inquiry is actually "contracting", so to speak, internally (intrinsically) to the absolute primordial state. In Physics, "Coherence" means "sums to zero value", therefore any model of reality that isn't static can't be a coherent model, no matter what any experts say on the matter. Via "Conspansive" modeling (per the CTMU), the absolute ground state of reality doesn't transform whatsoever via the "Big Bang". The Absolute remains eternally unchanging, as per the actual real monotheistic God, while the "observable universe" (the light) is actually "the Devil". The purpose of "the Devil", including life and consciousness, is that God can't be identified by means other than via sentient, intelligent, conceptual, and ultimately questioning beings (Dasein) realizing "pure stasis" for what it actually is and means (ie, "Nirvana" or "God's (eternal) Grace"). An "Eastern" term for the realization of the absolute is "Kensho" or otherwise "Zen". The story of Christ's death and resurrection is naked allegory for the process by which Zen is realized. Since Mind = Reality, the stilled mind defaults to its own Absolute state (of all reality), that being an eternally pure stasis. The experience of realizing the absolute is akin to "death", while the after-experience is akin to being "reborn", and hence the allegory of Christ's death and resurrection. The real trick of the Devil is that you can't know the Devil exists. As I stated, if the Devil is darkness, you can't know it exists, and you simply aren't likely to realize the Devil is light, because you're not willing to give up the degrees of freedom afforded by light. Every moment is an eternity. In truth, you'd only need to relinquish "the light" (and Ego) for the briefest of moments to realize the Absolute, but from the Ego's limited perspective, avoiding it's own temporary extinction, however brief this may be, is a reflexive trait akin to avoiding literal physical death.* Is that some crazy shit or what? I bet this guy's on drugs, eh?
