This reminds me very much of the material in Peter Mark Adam’s book The Game of Saturn, wherein is detailed what may have been a ritualized attempt of certain powerful individuals to return life after life, death after death, in order to maintain their control over the wealth their families had accumulated. It’s a creepy but fascinating story.
Given that there are some very powerful and exceedingly wealthy individuals who occasionally wander out into the sunlight to tell the rest of us what’s wrong with us, and how they’re going to improve us (even if it kills us), and that some of these individuals appear to be made of balsa wood and crepe paper, almost as of they’ve been cheating death for so long that Death finally just gave up, one can’t help but wonder what sort of means are employed (beyond the best life extension technologies money can buy), to keep these ghoulish-looking people outside of the tomb.
I can’t help but draw a connection between these ideas, and what JMG wrote in his last Ecosophia entry, and some creepy gnostic ideas. For a sort of consideration of the overlap between technology and the malevolent side of occultism, here’s a neat video interview of Joaquin Flores
https://youtu.be/aCV24UTPgKY
… wherein Flores suggests Elon Musk is a sort of Archon, entrapping the light-essence of the deceased in some sort of artificial medium. I don’t think Flores is speaking metaphorically. The title of the less-than-twenty minute video is Joaquin Flores: Elon Musk Serves The Dark Forces. Make of it what you will!
Anyway, thanks. Have a great July 4 holiday. Casey
