What would be a big success is to being somewhere in the middle.


I couldn't agree more, Searcher. I'm a Hermeticist, and one of my favorite interpretations of the concept of the Great Work, is finding that balance point between thinking like a scientist and thinking like an artist, head and heart, facts and feelings, etc. Knowing what tasks are better suited to one approach than the other, and being able to switch between them smoothly. "Alchemy" is really an excellent metaphor for the paradox of getting two systems to mix that don't naturally mix.

Part of what intrigues me about the VMs is the potential that it contains occult knowledge, which was intended to be revealed to initiates in a systematic stepwise fashion. This doesn't mean I think the content itself (assuming there is any), at face value, will necessarily be earth-shattering. Just like a well-written mystery novel, the art and the impact of esoteric spiritual teachings is much more in the delivery — in what order and at what pace the puzzle pieces are revealed — than what the finished puzzle looks like.
