I'm struggling, I admit. Small things are tripping me up as I cannot in my limited psychological range encompass the horrors laid bare.

But-

"Aether," that which perhaps, William Reich called "Orgone" & others named Qi & Prana & Intelligent Energy, is something I believe life, Intelligent, Feeling, & Moral in many cases, Life, is a both creator & accumulator of, & which appears to be ubiquitous in the Universe, manifesting or assisting in the manifestation of everything from galaxies to snowflakes, rose buds to blue whales.

Naming it the Demi-Urge is frying my limited human circuits.

Time to go to Tonga & swim with the Humpback Whales, once more....

; ))

Or climb a mountain and meditate on the magical blue color emanating from my snow white tracks.

But I guess I should pull the plug on the electrical grid first, lol...

So is the wrong Aether has suffered its enslavement, or its creation? Does it hate its finity or its subordination?

I suspect it hates finiteness more than subjugation... interesting question gm...

I've often considered this, too.

To focus on the gnostic notes of it, it makes me wonder if Aether-as-demiurge is angrier that he was made or that he was made poorly. I guess you've answered that here.

Thanks so much for this little thing here.

Trond, do not attempt to dominate the comments. Make your point, not someone else's. This is not the forum for pages and pages of religious pamphleteering.
