Cosmic Doctrine, the Cabala, and Greek Theogony

[randomactsofkarmasc]

I have been working on a series of meditations to correlate The Cosmic Doctrine with the Cabala (as presented by Levi in High Magic and JMG in Paths of Wisdom).  As I worked with the ideas, I began to see how a theogony of the Greek pantheon could be aligned with the Cabala ("a" theogony, not "the" theogony, as I borrowed deities and myths from a variety of mythographers).

I don't consider my metaphor to be "right" or "done"; I'm sure I'll be revising it as I learn and grow.  I attribute much of my learning and growth to JMG and his commentariat, so I am sharing this in hopes that some of you may have time to read my metaphor and provide feedback or, if you have been working on your own metaphor or Cosmic Doctrine/Cabala alignment, that you'll consider sharing yours.

For whatever it may be worth: glancing at your work it strikes me as frankly brilliant discursive meditation rife with deep insights. Personally, I tend to think in terms of different metaphors. That said, I thought I'd drop in to note my admiration!

I wrote a response and when it posted, I got an error message. So I figured that meant I should write a different response. :-)

You have such a depth and breadth of topics on your blog. For you to describe my work as you just did makes me very happy. Thank you so much.

Of course, you are most welcome and I'm delighted that what I wrote made you happy. The words I wrote are sincere. Looking over the PDF again, I'm very impressed by the degree of synthesis and insight you have achieved so far. Regardless of how you develop this further, what you've accomplished so far strikes me as a brilliant expression of systematic thinking.

Saying "thank you" doesn't seem adequate (to you or the other kind commenters). It is hard to describe the compulsion I felt to do this work and how nervous I was to share it. I truly appreciate the kind words.
