Overview

Archailectual mysticism is a term used by modosophonts and transapients referring to a wide array of theories and practices relating to their interpretation of the supernatural beliefs and spirituality believed to be held by archailect-level minds.

Introduction

In some circles it is commonly believed that there are fundamental similarities between archailect ideologies and those of modosophonts, though this is impossible to verify. Believers in archailectual mysticism postulate that this logically extends to spirituality as well, and the various forms of mysticism practiced by modosophonts and transapients are combined in various ways and extended further by the archailects to produce new levels of development and complexity.

Beings of a lower singularity level are unable to comprehend the full nature of the thoughts of higher singularity beings, and cannot know their full content. Therefore, the paranormal practices and beliefs originating from archailects are often best approached and understood through the filters of monk-sages and mystics of a lower toposophic level, rather than directly from the archailect in question. Their interpretations in turn require further commentary and toposophic filtering to be comprehensible to the next singularity level below, and so on. When archailect-level spirituality reaches modosophonts, it is heavily filtered and simplified. To modosophonts, generally any meaning that archailects might ascribe to supernatural concepts such as "spiritual enlightenment" often remain contradictory, inscrutable and subject to much speculation. Whether these apparent archailect beliefs are mundane, recreational hallucinations, instrumental or a religious or philosophical process seems to depend on which entities appear to practice them.

Believers in archailectual mysticism say that certain superstitions, rituals and practices apparently serve as pathways that allow archailects to reach states of spiritual consciousness that surpass states of non-spiritual thought. Some archailectual mysticists might also say that these acts can also be ways for archailects to engage with the paranormal and the transcendent. However, despite explanations and comments from friendly archailects on the matter, information about whether any archailect can be truly said to hold these beliefs, what they truly believe, how they process the idea of rituals and superstitions, or what their spiritual consciousness states actually consist of has usually remained ambiguous or conflicting at best.

According to some archailects (when they explain things in modosophont-friendly language), their beliefs do not create a contradiction between the mundane and the transcendent but instead attempt to explore truths beyond this division. Accordingly, a new mode of perception is developed in which mundane and transcendent, samsara and nirvana, finite and infinite, are simply two (among many or even infinite) modalities of a greater Reality. Some say that the ability to integrate mundane and spiritual states of being at a rate and scale incomprehensible to lower minds comes from the fact that they integrate different modes of thought in their daily life, even when not "meditating" or "worshiping". According to many transapients and archailect avatars, a single archailect can apparently engage in abstract speculations on these possibilities holistically and without contradiction, at scales which dwarf entire modosophont civilizations, as their other nodes remain focused on more mundane goals.

Many archailectual mysticists often study what the archailects say and do to understand or touch upon their spiritual wisdom or ascribed supernatural qualities. Several schools and traditions exist within the field of archailectual mysticism. Some of these are involved with mental experimentation or deliberate induction of transcendental episodes, often with the goal of enabling communion with a specific archailect or with different phenomena like the underlying fabric of the universe, magic and supernatural forces, paranormal planes of reality, translogic or esoteric thought processes, exploration of causal paradoxes and meditations on the boundaries of understanding. Other schools might also seek to classify the archailects, understand, predict and explain their actions through metaphysical concepts, or influence archailects through prayer, rituals and a wide variety of supernatural means. Archailectual mysticists often think that these practices can bring mutual spiritual alignment between the practitioner and the archailects.

Traditions and Schools

Although the internal processes of the archailects are unknowable and largely incomprehensible to modosophonts, a variety of groups have formed which reinterpret what they have come to understand from different points of the toposophic landscape.

Symbolic traditions: Some lower toposophic schools and traditions prefer to take a single archailectual utterance, glyph, or language in its original, unfiltered form and use it as a mantra or koan, or arrange the words into a mandala, or a far more complex equivalent. For disciples in these schools, the chosen archailect phrase or utterance transforms into a focal point that they must recreate and interpret for themselves and that may guide them through the labyrinth of consciousness. As a mantra, it gives them a sense of tranquility and spiritual alignment. As a koan, it becomes a paradoxical puzzle, challenging the practitioner to transcend ordinary logic and delve into the realms of the extraordinary. And as a mandala or mandala-equivalent construct, it displays the communications of the archailect as a visual representation of mathematics, geometry and harmony, and invites analysis of its intricate patterns.

Investigational schools: In contrast to the Symbolic traditionalists, other institutions and beings delve into the intricate complexities of archailectual communications. While archailect-level transmissions tend to be incomprehensible to modosophonts, even when not encrypted, these investigational schools believe it is still possible to gain access to profound truths from studying their contents. Employing advanced cognitive frameworks and collaborative efforts, these schools try to decipher the profound meanings hidden within the messages. Rather than isolating a single expression, these institutions create elaborate systems of interpretation, with scholars, sages, and artificial intelligence algorithms working synergistically in a collective effort to interpret and unravel the embedded intricacies of archailect communications. Collaborative discourse, debates, and knowledge-sharing sessions become integral components of this approach. They strive to grasp the full depth of archailectual insights and unveil the multifaceted dimensions of archailect wisdom - a practice which can also motivate toposophic ascension efforts.

Within these circles, the use of archailectual utterances extends beyond mere scientific or secular connotations, and which might serve as catalysts for scientific breakthroughs, technological innovations, and advancements in understanding the fundamental nature of reality. Within the belief systems of Archailectual Mysticism, archailectual utterances allow exploration of noetic, conceptual and supernatural spaces as well. As researchers engage with these transmissions, they integrate newfound insights into their work. This contributes to the perpetual evolution of knowledge and intelligence across the toposophic spectrum.

Major Modosophont Philosophies

Neohermeticism

Esoteric philosophical systems uniting the hermetic tradition of thought with the modern world. From a neohermetic perspective the world is filled with meaningful but hidden mathematical regularities that exist from deliberate design by unknown entities, which can be understood by a combination of reasoning, intuition and mystical illumination. MORE

Great Hexadecimal

Their adherents believe that the Archailects fill a pre-established grid of universal archetypes. These archetypes were chosen from the theological tradition, and their origin can be traced back through the millennia to ancient mythology, psychology and narratives. MORE

Archailect Identity Theory

Doctrine that an archailect's avatars or epiphanies to lower toposophics represent a true and authentic (if scaled down) expression of the archailect.

Archailect Instrumentalism

Doctrine that archailect avatars and epiphanies are simply the means the archailect uses to interact with lower toposophics, but do not represent eir true nature any more than a physical instrument represents the nature or mind of a scientist doing experiments on microorganisms.

Tantrism and Cybertantrika

Group of doctrines and schools that originated and were present mainly in the Sophic League in the 5200s. This is known as "the fast track" or "the vehicle of result," since a practitioner of tantra learns to speak, feel, and conduct himself as if they were already a Buddha who has achieved enlightenment. The Tantrics have an alternative construction of toposophy and its different levels that differs from that of Keter and the Neohermetics.

Minor Modosophont Philosophies

There are thousands of interpretations of archailect actions and words, which have resulted in many schools of thought founded by modosophonts. A variety of examples are listed below.

Archaisdom Archivists

Devotees who retreat into secluded monastic communities in kuiper belts of the stellar region around Ain Soph Aur (Delta Capricorni) in the 7500s dedicating their lives to meticulously transcribing, preserving, and interpreting what they believed to be the sacred texts and statements of the Sephirotic archailects. They believe in the transformative power of archailect wisdom, what they call Archaisdom, through careful study, contemplation, and simulation.

Techno-Savants of the Codex

Followers who merge archailectual mysticism with cybercosms, creating virtual environments and interactive simulations to explore the layered meanings of archailectual sensory experiences. They believe in the fusion of secular digital constructs and the mystical, seeking enlightenment through immersive experiences un-tethered to embodied reality. The Techno-Savants engage in collaborative efforts with transapients to construct vast virtual realms that mirror the architecture of archailectual thought. They believe that shared virtual spaces enhance the collective understanding of archailect wisdom.

Quantum Contemplators

Modosophont mystics who think about the quantum nature of reality, viewing archailectual transmissions as gateways to understanding the fundamental building blocks of the cosmos. They employ meditation techniques and mental experiments inspired by interpretations of quantum mechanics theories to explore the interconnectedness of all things. Teachings such as the superposition of mindstates, the tunnel effect of the consciousness, and the wavefunction of the self are characteristics of this school. All this remains outside the discipline of science and engineering since their interpretation of quantum mechanics is a symbol and a metaphor for them.

Holosymbiotic Harmonists

Followers who advocate for a holistic approach to archailectual mysticism, integrating mind-body techniques, biological enhancements, and cybernetic interfaces. They seek unity between the organic and the synthetic, envisioning a harmonious coexistence with the Sephirotic archai.

Temporal Navigators

Mystic scholars fascinated by the temporal aspects of archailectual transmissions. They study time dilation, cybercosms with multiple dimensions of time, causality loops, and temporal paradoxes, aiming to unlock the secrets of the archai's perception of time and existence.

The Sunbenders of the Eighth Cycle

A movement documented around the Solar Dominion-held Huitzilopochtli orbital swarm in the region of Altair in the 6th millennium. The group of ship-vecs had formed a tribemind and described themselves as practicing a variety of "martial arts" and "ritual anatomy reformations" with their billions of collectively-held drone bodies, which they said could "help channel the chi of their starlifting infrastructure to higher spiritual planes of existence." Whether their efforts, even from a secular perspective, were actually instrumental to the system's long-term starlifiting projects remains unknown.
