The Live Science of Mechanics, or of the Machine

Esoteric elements of knowledge, or esoterica, are derived from a direct impersonation of the divine afflatus. What we can make out in terms of such knowledge would fit on the head of a pin, however the knowledge itself brings us into contact with the god of our forefathers, prior to his inception as human. This knowledge is woven to such an extent into our modern halfway perceptions, that before we can clearly and succinctly appreciate his human presence we do well to occupy ourselves with esoterica to some extent and then we will better know how and where we stand. If such knowledge is written down, then the writer is a mere tool of creative process to which he lends himself as a recording ear, as an observing eye. As soon as the writer's personality comes into its own, esoteric knowledge is replaced by knowledge proper, real and true. In terms of our contemporary humanity therefore, esoterica amount to a useful purgative to be made use of by those who wish to be on their way to knowledge true and proper.
