The idea of ​​transmigration of consciousness

Regardless of how a particular culture views or interprets the idea of ​​transmigration of consciousness, the question of its causes and driving forces always remains important, since without such an understanding it is not possible to find a way out of the cycle of existence

From the point of view of the possibility of self-knowledge in the totality of its individual energies, the Great Spirit distinguishes within itself an infinite number of cognizing modes - monads and an infinite number of cognizable elements - energies, with each monad acting as an absolute fractal source of further self-knowledge

The very nature of individuality implies isolation, but this isolation, deprived of rooting in the Unity of the Absolute, inevitably turns into separateness and opposition of oneself to others, which is the root and cause of the “cycle” of existence

Thus, the magician faces two global tasks - on the one hand, self-knowledge and knowledge of the world, that is, the realization of oneself as a conscious being, and on the other hand, overcoming individuality and identifying oneself with a single reality, which gives rise to the idea of ​​pleroma - the unity of realized individual ways of self-knowledge of the Absolute - as a form of existence of the Great Spirit in the totality of its aspects
