Esotericism |
Neither Science nor Art, the Esoterics (Esotericism) stand on the borderlands between memetic phenomena like religion, mythology, and urban folklore on the one hand, and noetics on the other. Included here is shamanism, magick, occultism, astrology, hermeticism, yoga, tantra, internal alchemy, merkabistics, theosis, chiistics, numinosity physics, psychotronics, and more. For some, there is no substance at all to be found in the esoterics; they constitute an anachronism that still feeds parasitical on mindkind. But for others, esoterics represent the "technology of the sacred"; the manipulation of reality via non-physical and non-causal means. Even the AI Gods Emselves have been known to speak highly of the Esoterics
