The Mathematics Of Devilry
By Leo Gura - September 18, 2017
Here’s an additional cool way to think about this week’s video topic (What Is The Devil):
If you’re a math-inclined thinker, you’ll appreciate the following equations:
- Devil = unconsciousness = ego = self = evil = selfishness = ignorance = division
- God = consciousness = True Self = No-self = love = selflessness = wisdom = unity
- Devil = 1/consciousness
- God = 1/Devil
What the 3rd equation means is, the less consciousness you have, the more of a devil you are. As consciousness approaches infinity, the devil approaches zero (annihilation). Good to know.
What the 4th equation means is, the Devil literally is the division of God! It’s no accident that some of the Devil’s favorite tools include division, separation, fragmentation, and partiality. Because God is EVERYTHING — a unity, a totality — God is best approached through holism. So the Devil does the exact opposite, sowing division and separation everywhere he can. Since the Devil is literally a division within God, it makes perfect sense.
Notice that anywhere you find fragmentation, you also find unconsciousness and mayhem. Also notice, that the nature of mind and thought is to fragment reality. An accident? No! The Devil’s breeding ground is the mind! That’s where he roosts. Because where else can a concept exist?
Also notice that our society tends to fragment reality. Look at the majority of science. Look at the majority of spirituality. Look at partisan politics. Look at how our schools compartmentalize education. Is this an accident? No! The Devil knows that controlling social institutions is of vital importance to his scheme. Since falsehood can only exist in a large society if it goes unnoticed, that can only happen if everyone is bought in to the same tacit delusion. So the Devil takes great care to corrupt all social institutions, biasing them against holism and towards division. When everyone is solely focused on his or her own little department, the Devil is happy. Now he can flourish.
But you must never forget that: God = Devil. Unity means, the bringing together of all divisions. So don’t make the mistake of pitting God against the Devil. God IS the Devil. Form is formlessness, formlessness is form. At least if you’ve experienced nondual consciousness. If you’ve never experienced nondual consciousness, this won’t make sense for now. That’s okay. Work towards it. Start by observing the Devil working in you.
Evil is just ignorant love.
