Reality

Interpretation of Reality: Reality is a matrix of interconnected occult relationships - the basic defining principles are harmonics, responance, correspondence. The immanent Godhead experienced in the mystical stage is understood as actualising and becoming the universe through activity or power - shakti.

Knowledge: Intuition rather than reasoning. The universe is experienced symbolically through vibration, such as the subtle vibration of sound in mantra, and in specific postures and guestures (mudra). Unlike Mysticism which tends to be passive, the emphasis here is on creative identity and power, oriented to self-expression.
