The 4th Dimension |
Monday – August 31, 2026

Heaven is hard to fathom, and so is the 4th dimension. Now, the purpose of this post is not so much to explain or even understand the 4th dimension as it is an attempt to show why certain things remain hidden, not because they have to be hidden but because most people lack the right perspective, or really the right knowledge.

    A common occurrence in our modern day is the constant attempt to reduce everything to something material, indeed to something corporeal and immediate. Now, the problem with this approach is that there are many things out there that simply do not translate well into corporeal means; these things simply exist beyond the corporeal, or it would perhaps be more accurate to describe the corporeal as something contained within something larger, as a plethora of principles that all stem from higher principles. Again, it would be as if to attempt to understand the 4th dimension, that is to say quite impossible. There is no need to reduce the suprahuman, really the suprarational, to the immediate and to the logical, for these things are not made out of principles bound by logic. Now, something similar could be said about the almost absurd world of the infra corporeal, the subatomic world of seeming order within chaos, but in this instance, read "Electricity", truth is quite the other way around. Now, if you ever experience a moment of complete conviction in yourself and in your place in the universe, you may have glimpsed what I am on to, and you may find yourself quite unable to express this experience. I suppose it is true that we may not conceive of the 4th dimension for we are beings destined to dwell in the 3rd dimension, but we may very well sense a 4th dimension, and this is similar to the suprarational, although not equivalent.* Of course you should be made into a "fool" whenever you attempt to explain the suprarational to mere mortals, to people who know nothing beyond the immediate and the indrarational, and to them all of these "experiences" are quite easy to dismiss. But then again, this was never about experience. Now, some may say that when we find ourselves in these moments of completeness, read "Theory of Mind", that we essentially are receiving instruction or inspiration, and while there is truth to this, I would caution you to not confuse this with God, and from a Christian perspective I would instead suggest that moments like these are more reminiscent of us glimpsing the Heavenly Jerusalem (יהוה שָׁמָּה) as opposed to us necessarily receiving direct contact with the creator, and indeed many people will go through life without ever experiencing these moments, but the dangerous thing about these kinds of experiences must be that they are quite unqualified, read "Qualification", and we may not be able to do anything useful with these live experiences, not that anything useful has to occur as a result of this, and it would be a mistake to believe that we are privy to the sigh of Heaven because this should help us to perform in the corporeal sense. Again, the problem here is that it is quite impossible to describe the suprarational for it exists beyond our immediate perception of the world, and so we either dismiss it if we are ever privy to it, or we simply turn it into a materialized bastardization, instead of leaving it alone.

    Yes, if we are not capable of conceiving, not perceiving, of the 4th dimension, are we not better off leaving it in the realm of the unknown? To the extent that we may be unable to do anything with this suprarational knowledge, which again this post is about, we are surely better off leaving it alone, and again here "doing anything with" refers not to material enterprises, but rather suprarational modalities that we simply are unable to enter into because we are not qualified enough and because most of the knowledge that would have enabled us to enter into a certain and qualified mode of being in this connection has been lost. In mathematics and physics, it is just as well to conceive of a 4th dimension and even a 5th dimension without ever having to perceive of it; again do not carry this analogy too far. If we seek to approach the summit of the world, we must also climb the mountain; the light on the top of the mountain cannot help us in the foothills other than directing us towards a certain path, a path well suited for our inclinations, read "Hierarchy". Now the light may help us perceive just enough to gather that there is something calling our attention, but the light is also quite intoxicating in a world filled with darkness and hopelessness, a world of untold horrors and tragedy. Now, I do not want to allow the mystical element to take over, because there is nothing mystical about this once it has been established that everything cannot be understood on the level of perception, at least not immediate perception, and here I am not referring to the confusion of psychoanalysis, which has inverted the whole truth of the suprarational; a discipline that has sought, though unknowingly, to reduce the suprarational not to the human level, but to the infrahuman level, the infrarational level, by inhaling the toxic fumes at the bottom of the abyss, if such a bottom even could be reached within the purview of existence itself.

    To be animated is to live the sensation, and to live the sensation is to live the moment; really, to be animated is to be reduced to one point in time, to live on the edge of the world, as the world approaches a new dawn, as everything unfolds into the very point in spacetime that contains all possibility, all potential, moving forward; really to be animated is indeed to be charged, to carry the netload of the previous state. Now, whatever you do with this charge is perhaps what really matters at the end of the day, and it is in these moments that we are defined anew, really that we may say that we are reborn. Now, for most of us, it is all too easy to revert back to our previous condition, to regress so to speak, but for some this charge is just enough to create a new flame on the road to enlightenment, true enlightenment, and this is really what was meant by using our suprarational experiences; if we are capable of reaching a true state of excitement, we can can perhaps see for just a moment the world beyond our own. Nothing else would really be required, and no communication of this experience would be required either, for when we are born again, when we are defined anew, we are complete, we are whole, read "The Primordial Body".
