neither do I The Ancient Greek: δαίμων, pronounced daimon or daemon (meaning "god", "godlike", "power", "fate"),[1][2] originally referred to a lesser deity or guiding spirit such as the daimons of ancient Greek religion and mythology and of later Hellenistic religion and philosophy.[3] The word is derived from Proto-Indo-European daimon "provider, divider (of fortunes or destinies)," from the root *da- "to divide".[4] Daimons were possibly seen as the souls of men of the golden age acting as tutelary deities, according to entry δαίμων at Liddell & Scott.[5] See also daimonic: a religious, philosophical, literary and psychological concept. In the Old Testament, evil spirits appear in the book of Judges and in Kings. In the Septuagint, made for the Greek-speaking Jews of Alexandria, the Greek ángelos (ἄγγελος, "messenger") translates the Hebrew word mal'akh, while daimónion (δαιμόνιον; pl. daimónia (δαιμόνια)), which carries the meaning of a natural spirit[citation needed] that is less than divine (see supernatural), translates the Hebrew word shedim (שֵׁדִים; singular: שֵׁד) as well as the word se'irim (שעירים) in some verses and words for idols (foreign deities), and describes the being Asmodeus in the Book of Tobit.[9] The use of daimōn in the New Testament's original Greek text caused the Greek word to be applied to the Judeo-Christian concept of an evil spirit by the early second century AD. In Plato's Symposium, the priestess Diotima teaches Socrates that love is not a deity, but rather a "great daimōn" (202d). She goes on to explain that "everything daimōnion is between divine and mortal" (202d–e), and she describes daimōns as "interpreting and transporting human things to the gods and divine things to men; entreaties and sacrifices from below, and ordinances and requitals from above..." There ya go 'Master' Solo ... a bit of edumaction for ya ( and dont be so sad , the more you learn the better things ...... might get .)

These are not 'Abrahamic' but an extension of some of the above is still found in Anthroposophy ' - 'Eurythmy' . Eurythmy is an expressive movement art originated by Rudolf Steiner in conjunction with his wife, Marie, in the early 20th century. Primarily a performance art, it is also used in education, especially in Waldorf schools, and – as part of anthroposophic medicine – for claimed therapeutic purposes.[1][2] There is also the 'assumption of God- forms' ( poses ) , a magical practice based on modern hermetic 'neo -Egyptian ' practice (also apparently it is an eastern 'tantric practice' as well ? )

This is the temple plan for the Gnostic Church I this case the feminine aspect (Priestess ) has moved to the central altar ( Supernal Triad ) and it starts with the masculine aspect (Priest ) in the tomb , awaiting resurrection via the Priestess I am sure St. Meinrad would enjoy the symbolism of this Mass ( aside from its 'blasphemous ' nature ) Yet , no matter how 'blasphemous' some thing might be , it still lies 'hidden ' (unexplained ) yet in full sight within the heart of orthodoxy ..... " Its all that soot from the candles . " yeah .... sure it is . If it was all the the statues under similar usage would have it too - some claim Mary got more blackened as more candles where offered to her . No ... because ... Bishop : " Look ... just move the God damned thing down to the basement and lock the gate ! " Little kid looking from outside : " Hey look , that church got two big boobies on the roof and another big one in the middle , it looks like a pregnant woman lying down . " Priest : " They are domes son, an architectural feature symbolising the expanse of God;s heaven .... we dont 'do' women here ... now , off to ' Holy Confession ' with you .... blasphemy is worth about TEN 'Our Fathers ' ! " " But I thought saying prayers was a good thing to do that makes us and God happy , not a punishment ?" " Right you , troublemaker ... make that FIFTEEN 'Our Fathers' and a full set of Rosary ! "

I remember once, as a youth , exploring the main 'St Mary's cathedral ' in Sydney . To my surprise I found the grate gate to the basement 'crypt' unlocked , so i sneaked in there . Beneath the cathedral is some type of copy of the ground floor . It has a main altar underneath and two side ones, as above, one is obviously dedicated to Jesus but the one has a statue of Black Madonna ... and other 'interesting ' symbolism going on down there . The above plan has the usual elements ; two small and one big ' pregnant' dome on the top an entry between two legs (columns ) a folded and layered entrance 'lubrication glands' either side of the entrance - fonts . an implantation site - altar two tubes either side that go back to the ' egg' storage facility ( for the hosts ) Other symbolism is ; an altar , usually a central one with another either side to make a triangular arrangement . a ' ring do not cross' barrier between this and the rest , a shine either side a baptismal font in the middle congregational seats ' curious' designs on the floor ( check them out ) a back door way out into the world Note position 3 ; Binah ; The Dark Mother , The Great Sea , The Gate of Life and Death - related to Saturn , colour - black .

Who cares ..... it's wise . You be just like a guy I knew that was a health freak and had joined the Hare Krishnas ; he got concerned about excessive dairy , lots of white bleached flower , HEAPS of sugar , food floating in oil , etc . He shared his concerns with his local 'master' - or whatever it is with them - in a private conversation . He was told he would be fine as long as he offered it up to Krishna . " But the contents are hot healthy and we eat SO much sugar and .... " Becoming impatient with the student , the 'wise master' grabbed a ( white flour ) chapati , filled it with a handful of white sugar , rolled it up, gave it to student and ; " Just eat it . " One should not even question Wise Master , just do what he says and copy what he does ... no questions . - That is, if you are a traditional eastern student . And there folks , lies 'your ' * problem . So, old3bob .... Cheese waffie .... JUST EAT IT ! * if you are a 'why westerner' ... wanting 'proof' and all that stuff. .
