Child and Old Man
There is no such thing as an adult.
The Child plays with the Pleroma. Being only itself. He understand he is not the Pleroma. He understands that he can’t understand it. That’s why it is always new.
The old man stares at it, tries to understand it. He theorizes about it and accepts his theories. Instead of freeing himself, he tries to imprison the unbounded Pleroma!
All natural....

A Message to the Archons →
Archons, I stand before thee. Child of thy same imperfect pater. Spawn of Yaldabaoth, siblings we. But this, mine pneuma, is not his.
For Archons, I stand before thee. The holy light of Sophia in my eyes. Guided by the Logos to righteousness. As one with the Fullness as apart from it.

Madness is apparent motion and actual rest. It is being one with Sameness.
Divine Madness is truths swiftly passing by as possibities sit still and watch. It is being one with Metamorphosis.
Look up to the Divine Child so that you may become a child.
Pronounce madness so that you may know Divine Madness.
Cleverness couples itself with intention. Simplemindedness knows no intention....

Madness is going against reason or with it with force. Divine Madness is going against reason and with it at the same time and with ease.
Madness is seriousness, worry, and uniformity. Divine Madness is play, activity, and sea change.
Madness is a disability of reason. Divine Madness is a cure to heart.
