Say what? Say who?
I simply came upon a hesitation toward delving into the interpretation of middle earth on this forum. The reason is not my possessing a low esteem of the members of this forum, but rather the wide spectrum of beliefs. I think that approaching this subject begins to narrow the focus. So, on this one thing, it is probably best for me to just leave 'middle-earth' alone.
When I act from inspiration I'm more confident. There are still so many instances of attraction to matter. For instance, right now I want to go get something to eat, but I also need to go jump in the shower. I just got home from work not too long ago. I'm going to take the shower first. It is not exactly divine inspiration involved in this choice.
I suspect that the indictment of Loki being a primeval sociopath includes manas and mahat. All three refer to mind. Mahat of course is more than mind in that it is cosmic. The story of Loki is about the mind of man choosing to be in accord with the divine, with so very many opportunities to be inurred within temptation, making dreadful decisions or choices. Perhaps one insight on the manifestation in matter, relying on mind, is a necessity worthy of enduring in order to become always aspiring gods of ever increasing perfection. Perhaps we are already gods, but not while we are down here being humans. That is kind of a cool way to look at things.

You feel to moan but unlike before
