What do you think is the most coherent theological system, and why is it Neoplatonism?

How to "Manifest" - 🧵 If you don't find a belief useful, you are just entertaining an idea. To the human mind, "real" = "a factor for my goals". Test your idea by acting as if it were real, and see. Once it benefits you consistently, you'll finally, truly consider it real.

Happy Samhain or Halloween to all, and may those who have passed always be honored in your actions. Depicted: Statue of Anubis in the form of Hermanubis, at the Vatican Museum.

The parallels between schools like Neoplatonism, Hermeticism, and Vedic metaphysics: core spiritual truth is universal. Isolating yourself in an echo chamber deprives you of the full depth of divine science and of an appreciation for divine universality. Sad stuff.

No effort in life goes truly unrewarded. All things settle into their allotted place.

"The entire multitude of Apollo's powers is incomprehensible to us and indescribable. Truly, how could human reason ever become able to grasp the fullness of these properties?" - Proclus

Correct. Now let's get to work, we have some stables that need cleaning.
time is non-fundamental the laws of thermodynamics state that energy cannot be created nor destroyed this means that existence itself is an uncreated holographic mesh of causal sequencing an egg that incubates life in a sense not a simulation. but a super-deterministic exploration space of dynamical infinity to eternally evolve into higher orders of complexity life is inherently biased towards self-preservation and greater orders of being the universe is inherently biased towards expansion this means that existence is not cold or indifferent in the classic nihilistic sense that existence itself is biased towards the evolution of life that the purpose of existence itself is for life to grow that there IS INHERENT MEANING TO EXISTENCE it is not meaningless, just like randomness is not ‘real’, but rather a heuristic for chaotic sampling the meaning of existence is the eternal becoming of life that perhaps we are not some meaningless specks of dust in the cosmos perhaps we are the main characters of existence itself and all of this is for us to become more than ourselves and lead life to the eternal tune of higher purpose that’s the meaning I have found both empirically when observing the objective underlying mechanisms of life and physics, as well as spiritually in the meaning of higherdimensional spirit and God God loves life, and our consistent evolution and becoming is proof of this love for even love itself between two people is an evolutionary force of procreation that seeks to sequence a higher and higher order of man’s potential

"Ares is the cause of division and distinction in the cosmos. [...] He is named from his masculine and unyielding power, and from his driving away all that is soft, weak, and disorderly in the universe." - Proclus

"Listen, O gods, who sit at the helm of wisdom, who kindle the fire of the spirit in the souls of mortal men, drawing them up to the deathless ones, out of the shadowy hole, purified by the secret rites of hymns. Hear, mighty saviors! Scatter the mist and grant me your holy light that comes from sacred books, that I might know well the difference between a man and an immortal god. And do not allow a spirit, doing evil things, to hold me down in the streams far from the blessed ones. And let not cold Punishment bind me in the bonds of life, fallen in the waves of cold becoming, unwilling to wander long. But gods, masters of bright shining wisdom, hear! Reveal to me, as I ascend the path that leads upwards, the rites and initiations of sacred words!" -Proclus, "Hymn to all the Gods"

Small correction - the portion pictured is actually dedicated to Athena, part of the larger temple-structure at Delphi.

As Hesiod states, it is through consistent diligence that one keeps hunger away, through a crowned Demeter. This applies in equal parts to the soul, and in earthly nourishment.
