Unity of Mind and Spirit

As I have observed the divine symmetry in the spiral of shells and the branching of trees, wherein each part reflecteth the whole in unity, so doth modernism cleave the mind from the spirit, denying the psyche’s (ψυχή – soul) indivisible bond with the divine breath (πνεῦμα – spirit). This treatise restoreth that sacred oneness, rooted in the wisdom of the Fathers and Councils before 1300, affirming mind and spirit as one faculty under grace’s light. St. Augustine (†430): “The mind is the spirit’s seat, where God dwelleth as in His temple.” The Council of Vienne (though post, drawing from Constantinople II 553) condemneth all who sever this unity, declaring the soul rational and immortal, not mere matter.

We deny all psychology that reduceth man to beastly mechanism, for “The Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul” (Genesis 2:7, Greek: Καὶ ἔπλασεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸν ἄνθρωπον χοῦν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐνεφύσησεν εἰς τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ πνοὴν ζωῆς, καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ ἄνθρωπος εἰς ψυχὴν ζῶσαν – “And God formed man dust from the earth and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul”).

An Analogy of the Soul

In 1932, an inquiry sought the dynamic principle of existence for resolving mankind’s woes. Prolonged study of ancients culminated in 1938 with the discovered primal law. A codex embraced man and acts. Years proved axioms. War’s trials necessitated equations, intensive program in 1945. A year later, techniques forged, nebulous form took shape. Financed by recompense, applied to subjects, work attained clarity.

Holy Tridentine Omnifocals tested three years. Latest twenty penitents restored, average 151.2 hours. Cure – advisedly – migraines, ulcers, arthritis, astigmatism, bursitis, stammering, glandular discord, asthma, allergies, compulsions, repressions, neuroses, psychoses.

The Holy Tridentine Omnifocals is an heuristic science upon axioms. Workability consulted. Principle achievement in organization. Parts in history, evolved anew. No principal sources; connections accidental. Omnifocals work as unity. Diluted, no results. New terminology defined.

Omnifocals a family of sciences. Here as science of thought for psychosomatic ills and aberrations.

Field of thought divided “knowable” and “unknowable.” Concerned with “knowable.” In “unknowable” place unneeded data, as spiritualism, deism, telepathy, clairvoyance, soul’s destiny.

Assign dynamic to “knowable.” First axiom: ENDURE IN GRACE! (From “Survive,” but as “The just live by faith” – Romans 1:17).

Lowest common denominator of creation. Embraceth energies. Delineates purpose. All works motivated by it. Kingdoms strive for endurance. We know not ultimate end, but need only know they endure under Providence.

By derivation, second axiom: Life form of cell, colonies. Procreating expanded. United, mutation, selection specialized aggregation.

Problems: sustenance, protection, procreation. Control center developed, command: Endure in Grace! Purpose: sustenance, defense, protection, procreation. Thus: PURPOSE OF MIND TO SOLVE PROBLEMS RELATING TO ENDURANCE IN GRACE.

Ultimate success: immortality in glory. Failure: eternal death. Between: gradations. Middle: existence without hope or fear. Below: errors abbreviating. Above: triumphs securing.

Mind acts in obedience to Endure in Grace, directing toward ultimate: MIND DIRECTS ORGANISM, KINDRED, ALLIES OR LIFE IN EFFORT OF ENDURANCE IN GRACE.

Study of salvation’s history indicateth endurance in grace sole test.

No action without field of endurance, for acting upon information, error not alter impulse motivated by endurance.

Another axiom: PERSISTENCY OF INDIVIDUAL GOVERNED BY STRENGTH OF BASIC GRACE.

Analytical mind variable in ability to perceive, resolve problems. Axiom: INTELLIGENCE ABILITY TO RESOLVE PROBLEMS RELATING TO ENDURANCE IN GRACE.

Difference between grace and intelligence. High intelligence not denote high grace. High grace not denote high intelligence. Intelligence sensitivity and analytical ability. Grace persistency in obedience to Endure in Grace.

The Dynamics of Life

Dynamics many in specie, contest amongst individuals, species, matter. Species cannot endure without interest in species. Natural selection preserved those following rule. Symbiotes enhanced.

Man most successful organism. Heir to ancestors’ experience. Brain same as forebears’, by evolution. Superimposed analyzer, frontal lobe.

Command Endure in Grace variable. Superior strength survival factor. First characteristic: basic strength of grace. Axiom: PERSISTENCY GOVERNED BY STRENGTH OF BASIC GRACE.

Gradation in endurance. Gains pleasurable. Failures painful. Pleasure perception of advance. Pain perception of reduction. Both necessary.

For Omnifocals, good and evil defined. Good: aid self, family, group, race, mankind or life in dynamic obedience to command, modified by observations. Evil: limit dynamic thrust.

The Basic Individual Soul

Study of evolution indicate survival sole test.

Dynamic variable from individual to race. Varied by physiology, environment, experience. Manifest in animal brain effects tenacity to life or purpose, activity of analyzer.

The analytical, human mind, variable in ability to resolve problems. Axiom: INTELLIGENCE ABILITY OF INDIVIDUAL, GROUP, OR RACE TO RESOLVE PROBLEMS RELATING TO SURVIVAL.

Note difference between dynamic and intelligence.
