Greetings, all, from the Xyphokonic Order and Ordinance. Welcome to the first day in the Kyaius Period of Jumé. This period will be looking into and celebrating the wonders of Life and of Free Will, speaking of Aerigeth’s Heaven, and so much more as we direct our theming on the topic of the Kyaius Xyphozon. Today’s topic is on the divine attribute of Free Will and on Wills in general. Read on ahead with us!
Free Will is a divine attribute of Lord Kyaien, and is the power within a spiritual being to self-determinate their path in existence—especially in Life. All spiritual beings are granted liberties from the Lords; and in being bestowed these liberties, so comes the authority over self-determination. In Xyphoist Philosophy, we tend to see Free Will as a great gift but also one of the most variable powers of the spirit—particularly with its impact on the Cosmos. The Cosmic flow of Natural Development and of Divergence allow Free Will to act upon itself in whatever way an individual chooses—both positive and negative. In fact, the whole purpose of Natural Flow along with Divergence is to allow Free Will to function.
Free Will, however, is also the vehicle in which corruption can permeate through if an individual falls to immoral acts or theigritry. As the spiritual being has self-action, so can those actions be tarnished by corruption and be harmful. In other Commentary, my brethren spoke of the consequences of those actions and the means to prevent them from happening in the first place, so I will only briefly say that maintaining inner equilibrium and fighting corruption and immorality are key to preventing those outcomes
Will, in the general sense, is simply defined as the desires and inner directives of the Core and Self. As we’ve seen in Deceptuary’s case, he has been transferring his Wills into Xyphojinami as vessels; we can observe his most coveted desires in the form of the Wills he cuts off his being and forces into mortal vessels.
The Lords themselves have Wills as well; the entire reality we exist in—the Spectrum itself—is the Will of the Lords. The Order is the Will of the Lords, truly all the virtues of Xyphoist Philosophy is the Will of the Lords.
We as mortals have our own Wills. For myself personally, I chose to make this Commentary about my Will to speak on Will today. I could’ve chosen another topic, but today I chose to speak about Will. That is the power of having Wills and of having Free Will.
Sometimes you will encounter those that seem devoid of Will—that they truly have nothing of desire or any goal to obtain. We have loosely categorized people like this as “seekers of nothing,” which is still technically a Will—simply a Will to seek nothing. There’s actually nothing wrong with being a seeker of nothing, as the whole purpose of Free Will is to act freely on oneself. In fact, it is very possible for people to serve goals in Life and still be seekers of nothing. Those that perhaps have no ambitions for themselves but have either been tasked or chosen to serve purposes they may not even want to do can still have goals to achieve and not particularly desire them. Although there’s always the freedom to refuse these jobs to their own avail—as would be a free choose—they can still be seen as seekers of nothing either way.
Naturally, “seekers of all things” exist—those so goal-orientated they seek all that they can before their time alive extinguishes. Ambitious indeed but so long as those Wills aren’t used in nefarious or corrupt means, there is no right or wrong in doing so. Most of us seem to fall in between—although for my brethren and I, we very well can be seen as highly seeking at least the goals of the Order, although I cannot speak on the others on their passion, it is well-seemed that we’re passionate about our work here and beyond. Regardless, the aggressiveness of Will-seeking isn’t an action that is subject to judgement. As the term suggests, Free Will is free. Use it or don’t, you have that freedom to do so in your time alive.
With that said, I’ll conclude here on this for now. Thank you for reading and have a Sacred Day!
