Passages from the Book of Sorrows; Pt. 2

Post by Aphanteus »

DREAM OF THE MANIFESTATION OF SECRETS

Prior to the age of the burning of the worlds, shade and darkness prevailed throughout the created order. Secrets had no name, for they had being apart from any keeper, under the protecting mercy of the dark. The Two-faced Goddess walked among the secrets without fear. For the secrets were not made by Her, but were protected by Her loving kindness. For with one face She dimly illuminated the darkness and with the other She succored the glorious, unending night. And all was well, for the shadows increased and sanctified the worlds.
In time, as the unwavering cries of their child tore at the One mind, the thoughts of the Two-faced Goddess were rent in two. With one mind She remembered the holiness of the dark, while with the other maddness and perversion claimed control. The One became Two; a Goddess of dark and peaceful mercy, and a Goddess of light and madness (For, is it not called lunacy?). And the two strove against each other. The Dark sought to protect the creation as it always had been. But the Light, driven by insanity and desperation feared the secrets, and sought to illuminate the unknown. And while in Her delusions She set Their own Child ablaze with an alien flame, ripped at Her own flesh and flung it at the Darkness, giving birth to an illegitimate child. And thus the three, forced by the infectious insanity of the Light struggled with the merciful Darkness and over powered Her. Thus were the secrets illuminated; thus were the unmanifested made known, to the shame of all creation. May the Dark Goddess protect us.
Listen and hear the truth. The Light is unfaithful. The Light is the harlot of shame. For the Light strives to make all creation naked and vulgar. In Her paranoia She seeks to reveal all so that She may enslave all in the damnation of eternal light. But it was never meant to be. All was created and made in darkness and shadow. That which was made hidden was to remain so, for such was perfection and peace. Yet the lunacy of illumination does violence to the created order. The madness of the Unfaithful Light desires your secrets that with them She might ensnare you, as a whore does a man. But She Who Remembers What Was desires for you to keep sercrets hidden. Reveal them to none but to those whom She knows in secret. So that the Enemy may not entrap you, strive to keep knowledge remote. Thereby do we join with our Lady in a hidden union to re-establish the original state of creation. May the Mysterious Dark bind our lips and abide with us all.
