So this comes with that Netflix show Kaos, which is a little bit like a Gnostic nightmare version of the Greek Gods. For example, the "underworld" ruled by Hades promises rebirth after death to the humans. However, in Hades, no rebirth occurs but the human souls are siphoned off to make some sort of beverage to the Gods that makes them immortal. Like the Matrix, humans are just used for fuel.
In some ways, this occurs while humans are living. Our thoughts create the Gods, the all powerful beings that control our destiny. We submit to this fate. We submit to causation being beyond our control and residing with the Gods. Like the Matrix, our thoughts are the pathway that the Gods steal our energy to create the God egregore. Without our belief in the Gods, without our thoughts, the Gods do not exist.
Speaking of stealing, Prometheus reverses the process, he steals fire from the Gods and gives it to humanity. Which is an interesting shift. Fire was previously reserved for the Gods. Fire is a "real" so to speak technology. Perhaps a tool that humanity can realize our own creative potential. Instead of creating the Gods with thoughts, we can now create fire which exists in some different level in our day to day life. It is the first step in eroding the power of the thought of an invincible all powerful God. Now we can do shit. If we realize we can create stuff in this world, we can realize our own divinity.
Now with our heads in our cell phones, we have become separated from our own fire, our own earth, our own creativity. The Gods are back in our phones. The Gods are undetached thought forms. They are back. I sense there is more to this, but at present, I am mixing apples and oranges. This I am want to do and I apologize.
