• 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!

  • Greetings from the Ordinance and Order! This appears to be the final entry of Commentary for this Maiye Period on Nature, so just as we started in verdant bloom and freshness, so should we end with the natural decay, rot, death, and recycle of our mini-series on Nature. Aptly so, we will spend today talking about Nature in regards to the cycle of Life and Death with a focus on mortality in Xyphojinami.

    Of all the rules of existence as Mortals in Xyphojinami, none are more eternal and unquestioned than the cycle of mortality itself, and that it begins as Life and ends as Death. A seed planted—spawned from the reproduction from previous Life—is nurtured and grows into a fresh budding flower. The flower reaches its full bloom, spreading its seeds for Life and lasting long enough to do so. Perhaps the Flower enjoys a period of peace before the natural wilting begins. The blossoms fall and they’ve served their purpose, and the coloration fades as it too has exhausted its faculties. Towards the end, the flower grows nimble and meek, slumping into its eternal rest. Inevitably, the flower wilts and succumbs to its natural Death, and the vessel rots and decays as the spirit is released—free and formless—and is given rest before being scattered and eventually recycled.

    This temporal status, that of mortality, is a reality of existence. And one perhaps that could bring about fear, yet is one of necessity. My brethren here in the Ordinance will speak more deeply on their attributes that contribute to both Life and Death, but I come here to link the cycle and process to the facilitator of such things: Nature. Every attribute has its Xyphozon, and each have their duties. When it comes to the root purpose of Nature, it is the facilitator, the manager, to setting force of the various attributes that establish themselves as needed.  Realmly Existence and Manifestation are attributes of Lord Caspierre’s Xyphozon, yet they are facilitated by Natural Flow. Life and Death, the spiritual process, are carried out by the rules in which Nature sets for the conditions to bring about both. The Elements require Nature to define each Elements’ impact and influence in the working realms.

    In short, Nature is the force that other attributes use as a vehicle to move their powers through; it is a medium. It is called the “creating force” by us, the mortals, for it establishes the rules we exist by. While our existence itself is established by all the attributes, it is Nature that rules HOW we interact with such an existence. Nature is the creating force, it is not to be conquered or trifled, and can eradicate all that seeks to best its creator. As we’ve gone through this mini-series, we’ve explored Nature’s various roles and impacts with the goal to help understand this often enigmatic attribute and Lord who propagates it. With that said, we here at the Ordinance wish you all a Sacred Day!

  • Greetings from the Order and Ordinance. We meet again on this absolutely gorgeous day. Hopefully everyone has spent it out in the Lord’s Nature. As we’ve talked about Natural Force for the last two Commentaries, today we shall cover the other divine attribute of Lord Nakndes: Reincarnation. What is Reincarnation? Who is granted Reincarnation? And for what purpose would one be Reincarnated? We didn’t have time to go deeper into this attribute during our Xyphokron review, so let us do so now.

    Reincarnation is the process of the Cosmos taking a previously assembled spirituality and Self and recycling its form into a new existence with most of the previous iteration intact. Put simply, once a mortal dies in Xyphojinami, part of their Self and spirituality is taken and is part into a new mortal Life within Xyphojinami.

    So, for what purpose would Reincarnation serve in Xyphoist Philosophy. It’s understood that once a mortal dies, their Self and soul are moved onto other Pathos before being scattered. However, in certain cases, a mortal’s previous life and influence during that life served such a grand purpose for current and future events, that their spirituality will be recycled and Reincarnated. Often, people who have had momentous impacts on our world were seen as one of these Reincarnated mortals.

    Daetos Idolism, named after the Archangel and Sacred Servant Daetos, Scribe of Idol, is one type of reincarnation in which a being is reincarnated to serve a grand purpose in the Order as mortal emissaries for the Ordinance wing of the Order—including we Arch-Hayles Grandurate ourselves.

    Other forms of Reincarnation come in the form of Heightened Spirituality. A being may martyr themselves in hopes of their spirituality being reincarnated as some form of charm to protect someone still living. This is mainly through the Caishon, Caspierrian, and Saifaosian Pathos to become Granduate Guardians, Granduate Reliquaries, or Granduate Cupids.

    Granduate Guardians are reincarnated mortals who are sent to be guardians to another life for the duration of their Life in Xyphojinami. Granduate Reliquaries are reincarnated spiritual resonance placed inside a corporeal vessel other than a typical mortal body and acts as a spiritual tool or protective charm for another being still alive. Finally, Granduate Cupids are reincarnated mortals whose purpose in their next Life is to initiate or hold together a bond of Love between others.

    Generally, the purpose of Reincarnation in Xyphoist Philosophy is to assure a specific spirituality will be brought back into the cycle to serve a grand purpose. Reincarnation is much less common than the more natural path after Death, but select spiritualities will be part of this process.
