Following on the absurd comments from the previous essay, oh dearest and most super-esteemed reader, we shall plunge ever more deeply into absurdity today, so fasten your cosmological seatbelts, sit back, and relax.

If you have any additional hope to abandon now is the time to lay it aside. But you will not need to reach for the oxygen mask unless you are a paid subscriber.

In turn, each Being on every planet throughout the Megalocosmos becomes responsible for engaging in its own further work to concentrate these particles within its own Being and then share them in the community of Beings that it exists in.

This may sound like a lesson in esoteric physics, but it’s actually a lesson in religion and Love, because the “emanations of the Most Holy Sun Absolute” are actually the emanations of Divine Love per Emanuel Swedenborg's great masterpiece on the subject, Divine Love and Wisdom (free download at this link), without a careful reading of which one cannot begin to understand the way the cosmological system we inhabit is ultimately constructed.

That however is perhaps more for the spiritual geeks, who are interested in how things work. It isn’t necessary to do that in order to participate.

So far, so good. We’ve laid out a rough map of some of the things that Gurdjieff explained about the sun which can now be used to explain the matters in chapter 40 at more depth. Let us launch that spaceship.
