From the gods who sit in grandeur grace comes somehow violent

Art and politics are identical exercises of the Pharaonic Will which began in Egypt and was perfected in classical Greece. Aesthetics is violence; the Sculptor and the Tyrant are the same creature. The scepter and chisel are magic wands of the necromantic “will-against-nature,” wielded by that curious adept known to us as civilized man. Their function is cold butchery, a cutting away of the tangential, an arrangement of bones and a waltzing with corpses. Together, they are attempts at the perfection of nature via time-sorcery: the carving and shaping of an all-devouring chthonian flux into lasting forms of beauty.

Political expressions such as this are the surest signs of decadence. People like you have been mentally broken from living in a country that is much too safe, too secure, too prosperous, too untouched by the ravages of war. Like Siddartha in his palace, you cannot imagine death. Conquest is something you understand as only happening to others. So certain of your walls, you have stopped believing in the enemies outside of them. All you have is guilt for this arrangement, and none of the fear that leads to wisdom.

Theosis and divine self-revelation are the same phenomenon glimpsed from opposing sides of a cosmic mirror, from within and without of time.

The great heroes of the mythic past lie waiting in the universal unconscious for the proper moment to storm back into world-historical time and restructure the entire cosmos by means of unfathomable violence. Men shall war with gods and win concessions by the spear.

@SchrodingrsBrat Our ability to instinctively find certain things disgusting was also given by God, that we might avoid pollutants of the flesh and spirit. I’d say art like this generally fits into that category, although there are exceptions.

Because you confuse kitsch “classical”/“trad” aesthetics with the glory of God found in all His creations. This disgusts you because you can’t see the beauty of His work in everyday life. You don’t see the grain of divinity in every person made in His image, the thing that makes a urinating woman as worthy of love and life as an Orthodox Christian or otherwise
Michael Orthodox ☦@Michaeldudufudu

Why does modern art attempts to evoke disgust whereas classic art attempted to evoke beauty?

We're going back to when noblefolk keep schizos on their property, clothe them and feed them, let them sit in little sheds close to the fence where they can ramble and shout at passers by. We're doing it for you, anon.

Just a reminder that Jung believed he had been chosen by God for a mission in the Age of Aquarius. Completely New Age.

“God of gods, the Monad from the One, prior to being and the source of being. For from Him cometh the essence of being and being; wherefore is He called Father of being. For He is prior to being, the source of spiritual existences; wherefore also is He called Source of spiritual things.” -Iamblichus, "De Mysteriis" Creator (Hans Thoma, 1903)

"In early Hellenic antiquity, the spiritual guide, acting as legislator, statesman, philosopher, musician, and poet, reflects the ideal figure of the Centaur Cheiron, half-brother of Zeus (who is equated with Amun). Cheiron, the son of Kronos (the hypostasis Nous in the Neoplatonic hermeneutics), as an archetype of educator, unifies every form of wisdom and knowledge, thus introducing an integral paideia, such as the mythical king Osiris in the Egyptian accounts. Celebrated as a sage immersed in the depths of wisdom, Cheiron acts as Achilles' instructor in the art of healing and singing (since therapeia and music are inseparable) and as the teacher as who taught the god Dionysus (the Egyptian Osiris) as a child the Bacchic rites and solemnities, according to Ptolemaios Chennos, the author of the 1st century A.D. As Pindar, the famous Hellenic poet, attested, the Cheironian process of education consists in spending twenty years in a cave under the care of Cheiron's daughters (Pythian 4.103 ff). The cave in this context is analogous to the tomb (or coffin, ankh), regarded as a "school" and as a place of rebirth in Kemet, the "black land", i.e., Egypt." Algis Uzdavinys - Philosophy as a Rite of Rebirth

'The etymology of his name from the root for “hand”, tells us that Kheiron is “handy” or “crafty”. The first observation of Kentaur’s displaying of the right hand at the hip is self-explanatory: when showing us his hand, Kheiron is showing his name.' Linderoth, Immortal Departed

In better times this would've been rightly taken as a sign that these cultures harbour a malaise within, and their kings would be throwing people on the pyre until the day this ends.
