Any mystic proceeds from the fact that the divine is the result of the meeting of the perfect with the imperfect. But in this case, we don’t need this situation, we don’t need a meeting, we don’t need a major program of redemption.
The essence of religious mysticism lies in the fact that the perfect, which needs nothing, which unconditionally includes everything, completes everything, is the balance of all meanings, all directions. It would seem that this is the divine, but it is not so. It is divine that imperfection is accepted by perfection as an equal couple. In other words, God is impossible without the “marriage union” of perfection and imperfection.
Imperfection is accepted into this union.
It must be understood that religious mysticism based on these “embraces” of the perfect and imperfect, on the creation of a “marriage union” is a lie, an absolute lie. What religious mystics call “god”, “the emergence of the divine”, is a fluttering in the latrine of Existence, it is anti — Spirit, anti-Thought, anti-Providence. That’s exactly why all these ayatollahs and other masters say: “If a Friend does as I want, then we will wish for a hot flame and a straw mat.”
The idea of closure to a complete cycle, closure to completeness, the last mystery is that perfection becomes true perfection only when it is complemented by imperfection as a separate reality, without which perfection is meaningless. This is the cornerstone, discarded by the builders
as unnecessary, but it is he who lies at the base of the dome, the key that closes the dome. This is the shape that makes the dome stand.
The whole point of religious mysticism is that imperfection is a necessary complement to the perfect. The perfect without the imperfect is nothing.”God” is the inseparable union of the perfect and the imperfect. This is the essence of Christianity, the essence of deification, the essence of everything.
And we say that all this is a lie. Because the very idea of the perfect and the imperfect, their dialectic, their glorification through the sublimation of both, is a complete falsehood.
The man must die. But not in the sense of Nietzsche — not in order for a superman to be born. He must die in order to free his consciousness as a point
the opposition to everything.
When a person dies, God begins with that. But not in the sense of religious mystics who think in terms of “perfect completeness”, “imperfection”. And God, understood as the One Who creates in order to show that everything that is, that everything that is created, is an expression of His concealment.
This is the opposite idea to the fact that everything around us testifies to God.
