Correspondence & Mind

Correspondence
Relativity is the theme of this sphere. However the relativity is also the discordant note of this sphere. In order to measure location or placement one is going to need something to measure thus whether it is forces, matter, life, mind or time it is a hindrance to the adepts of this sphere if they are not also skilled in the other spheres as well. However as soon as an adept of this sphere does become equainted with another sphere the abilities of the sphere of Correspondence are unbelievable. Its like having the instant intuitive ability to make rather insane mathematical measurements and deductions without having to put too much effort into it. The Adept is merely tapped into a Quantum Mind in which all the variables can be immediately known and acted upon without having to think on the subject. This rather phenomenal intuitive ability even extends beyond the scope of mere meaurements. At greater levels of experience one can even manipulate the correspondent point of all reality however dealing in the world of projections and illusions has the tendency to alienate the Adept of this sphere and whether its an inherited Paradox flaw it is quite likely that those who study under this sphere become more dreamy eyed then ever. To them nothing is ever what it seems and growth in the other spheres helps them to explore just how much reality is projected throught the Correspondence Point.

Mind
The sphere of mind is another sphere which does wonders for the other spheres. Yet like correspondence there is a good deal of material one can gain from the sphere of mind alone even if its higher potentials lay in how one can use the teachings of this sphere to manipulate the abilities within the other spheres at a more harvestable level of production. The mind is perhaps the key to all existence for perhaps all existence is based off of developing the mind? Enlightenment or Ascension does not truly exist other then as a process to develop the mind. The mind however can never complete its development but it can move further down the path of evolution in which it becomes more aware of its path in existence and has reached a higher level of agility in the arts of manipulating reality.

Since this sphere does deal with enlightenment I dare to share some philosophical concepts here. There is a perception of reality that sleepers do not truly awaken. That those individuals known as mages have always existed and that everyone has a higher path but not every path is enlightened. This is a realization of zazen. That being who you are does not necessarily mean being enlightened. Thus the entire Ascension war is a miscalculation in logic. One cannot change who another being is even if that being is nothing but a shell of what some would like to call a real person. Sure you can manipulate and transmute reality and perhaps change what spot an individual stands relative in their path but that does not necessarily change a person. Thus true ascension does not exist. True ascension is merely following ones own path, zazen, as far as one can, a sort of continuism. Such a philosophy seems to invoke what I like to call the Continuist Code of RAA. Which stands for realizing the Relativity of existence, Accepting it for what it is and what is possible and thus learn to Appreciate all that it is and what is possible for one do with it. Well thats all I have to say on the matter of philosophy but for one final statement. Remember, the mind reacts to that which it is aware of.
