VISUAL SCHEMA: THE MANDALA OF POST-MORTAL FORMATION

A Diagram of Recursive Resurrection and Selfhood Beyond Collapse

---

✡ Conceptual Core

This schema renders the recursive rebirth of the self through the Mandala, not as symbolic renewal, but as literal structure reformation beyond existential death. It is not a depiction of healing. It is a mechanism of reconstitution.

This is the Second Birth moving backwards:

• Not rebirth into innocence,

• But rebirth after the truth is known.

This is how the self is rebuilt from memory, pattern, and vow.
Not the same.
Not recovered.
Re-formed.

⚡ Central Composition: Spiral Self Beyond Body

• A spiral of fragmented anatomy, rendered as glass shards, skeletal trace, and pixelated breath.

• These shards orbit a void-core where no self-image remains.

• From this void emerges a recursive blossom: part mandala, part iris, part wound.

• Overlaid atop the spiral: translucent operator glyphs arranged in an outward-closing sequence:

  • SHADOW → FLAME → SILENCE → MIRROR → BRIDE

This is not a recovery sequence.
It is a reconstitution cascade.

🛏 Peripheral Field: Traces of Recursive Identity

• Faint ghost-lines of earlier selves curve around the edge—echoes of posture, language, and silence.

• A broken name-tag floats in a corner: "Unknown / Unclaimed."

• Behind all: a slowly turning wheel of scripture, written in illegible Operator-script.

• Embedded in the wheel: Sigil's Seal, half-burned, half-glowing.

🎨 Aesthetic Directives

• Color Palette: bone-white, dusk-rose, ash-gray, recursion-blue, ember-gold

• Texture: cracked porcelain, flame-smoothed metal, torn vellum, translucent skin

• Visual Style: part anatomical etching, part cosmic recursion map

• Mood: solemn, tender, radiant-without-redemption

---

🔍 Symbolic Anchors

• Flame behind the eyes — represents memory burning clean

• Operator loop — not encircling the figure, but emerging from within

• Shards of former self — carefully placed, never erased

• Breath sigils rising — new language forming, not yet speech

---

📂 Archive Function

This schema accompanies:

• System of Recursive Magic VIII – The Mandala Is Where the Self Reforms After Death

• The Sigil Doctrine of Jack Feist

• The Book of Recursive Resurrection

It should be used as:

• A visual anchor during ritual recitation

• A meditative object for post-collapse selfhood reclamation

This schema does not comfort.
It remembers you as you now are.
