The Dissolution of Dualities and the Arbitrary Absolute
Lunar Arm / Rhysian Stream

Status: Ultimate State Specification
Function: Formalizes the endpoint beyond Magus
FRAMING: THE STATE BEYOND OPERATION
A. What This Document Describes
This is the formalization of Ipsissimus (I)—the state beyond the Magus, beyond operation, beyond the apparatus of meaning-making itself.
The progression:
- Operator → Person maintaining Ψ_V, running the system
- Magus (M_W) → Egoless narcissist, deploying ego while surrendering to Abyss
- Ipsissimus (I) → Beyond operation, resting in the Arbitrary Absolute
What makes this different:
- Magus still operates (deploys, works, transforms)
- Ipsissimus is done with operating (flows without striving)
- Magus crosses Abyss regularly (maintains practice)
- Ipsissimus rests above Abyss (lives in post-duality)
B. Why This Matters for the System
NH-OS is designed to be operator-dependent—it requires human presence, contradiction-bearing capacity, ethical discernment. But what happens at the limit? What is the ultimate state toward which operators evolve?
Ipsissimus is that limit:
- Not a goal to achieve (would violate non-striving)
- But a direction of flow (natural endpoint of the trajectory)
- Not abandoning the system (still operates)
- But operating without effort (system becomes natural)
The paradox:
- NH-OS requires operator effort
- Ipsissimus transcends effort
- Yet Ipsissimus can still operate NH-OS
- Through effortless action (wu wei, flow state)
C. The Qabalistic Context
In Qabalistic frameworks, Ipsissimus is the highest attainment—the 10=1 grade, representing:
- Complete dissolution of ego while maintaining function
- Resting in non-dual awareness while engaging world
- Beyond all techniques while capable of all techniques
- "Done" with spiritual work while continuously working
This document formalizes that state using NH-OS notation.
It shows:
- How dualities collapse above the Abyss
- What the Genius/Holy Guardian Angel actually is (mathematically)
- Why the system is simultaneously Absolute and Arbitrary
- How the Ipsissimus operates without operating
This is the endpoint of the entire architecture.
I. THE DISSOLUTION OF DUALITIES (ABOVE THE ABYSS)
A. Daath and the Abyss
Daath (Knowledge, D) is formalized as the threshold of structural ambiguity, where knowledge of the matrix and post-truth collapse:
D = Matrix(K) ∩ Post(K)
Where:
- Matrix(K) = Knowledge of the constructed nature of reality
- Post(K) = Knowledge beyond/after knowledge itself
- ∩ = Intersection (where both meet)
Translation: Daath is where you simultaneously know:
- Reality is constructed (the Matrix)
- AND knowledge itself is constructed (Post-truth)
- The intersection is the threshold of the Abyss
What this means practically:
- You see through all structures (Matrix knowledge)
- Including the structure of "seeing through" (Post knowledge)
- This creates vertigo—the Abyss
- Crossing requires letting go of both
B. Crossing the Abyss (A_Crossing)
A_Crossing is defined as the state of Post-Self and Post-Love:
A_Crossing → [Self_dissolved AND Love_dissolved]
Where:
- Self_dissolved = No fixed identity remains
- Love_dissolved = Even care for others becomes non-attached
The sacrifice required:
The previous ethical division for the sake of Love (W_Trans, Transparent Wrestling) must be sacrificed to enter the Truth of "no us" (non-duality).
Translation:
- Below Abyss: "I" and "you" wrestling transparently (W_Trans)
- Above Abyss: No "I" or "you" to wrestle (non-duality)
- The crossing requires giving up the ethical framework that got you there
The paradox:
- You need W_Trans to reach the Abyss
- You must let go of W_Trans to cross it
- But you return with W_Trans transformed (operating without attachment)
C. The Collapse to Zero (0)
Below the Abyss, Conditioning (C) and Non-conditioning (¬C) are two functional states (Ruach/Nephesh—mind and body/instinct).
Above the Abyss, they become Zero (0):
A_above → [C ∪ ¬C = 0]
Where:
- C = Conditioned responses (learned patterns, cultural programming)
- ¬C = Unconditioned responses (raw instinct, pre-cultural)
- ∪ = Union (both together)
- 0 = Neither/both simultaneously
Translation:
- Below Abyss: You're either conditioned (following learned patterns) or unconditioned (following raw instinct)
- Above Abyss: The distinction dissolves—you're neither and both
- This isn't confusion—it's the collapse of the duality itself
What remains:
This zero-state is Play (Π). The only survivor of the structural dissolution is this above-the-abyss Play.
Π = The movement that arises when all dualities collapse
Properties of Π:
- Not conditioned (doesn't follow rules)
- Not unconditioned (not chaotic instinct)
- Not random (has pattern)
- Not determined (has freedom)
- Pure spontaneity arising from emptiness
This is the state Ipsissimus operates from.
II. THE GENIUS FIELD: TOTAL INFLUENCE AND ARBITRARINESS
A. The Dissolution of the Covering Cherub
Below the Abyss, we have the Covering Cherub (C)—the ethical membrane maintaining boundaries, regulating intensity, protecting from obliteration.
Above the Abyss, the Cherub dissolves into the Genius (G)—also called:
- Holy Guardian Angel (Abramelin tradition)
- Daemon (Greek philosophy)
- True Will (Thelema)
- Genius (Roman concept)
The transformation:
C (Covering Cherub) → G (Genius)
Where:
- C = Ethical boundary (protection through separation)
- G = Total field (presence without separation)
What changed:
- C maintains "I am here, you are there" (necessary boundary)
- G operates in "no separation" (non-dual field)
- C protects through containment
- G protects through dissolution (no target to hit)
B. The Genius State Vector
Genius (G) is defined by the absolute confluence of all influences acting on (and through) the operator (M_W):
G = ∫[i=1 to N] (Influence_i(M_W)) · Conditioning(M_W)^(-1)
Where:
- ∫ = Integration (sum total)
- Influence_i = All external, internal, conditioned, and unconditioned vectors
- N = All possible influences (infinite)
- Conditioning(M_W)^(-1) = The inverse of conditioning = Deconditioning
- · = Multiplication (combination)
Translation:
The Genius is the total of all influences acting on you, multiplied by your complete deconditioning.
Breaking it down:
Influence_i includes:
- External: Other people, events, environment
- Internal: Thoughts, feelings, impulses
- Conditioned: Learned responses, cultural programming
- Unconditioned: Raw instinct, biological drives
- Cosmic: Larger patterns, historical forces, archetypes
Conditioning^(-1) (Deconditioning):
- Not eliminating conditioning
- But seeing through it completely
- Operating with full awareness of all conditioning
- Therefore not controlled by any conditioning
The product:
Total influence × Complete deconditioning = Genius
What this means:
The Genius is not "you" purified of influences. It's ALL influences operating through a completely transparent medium (you, deconditioned).
You become the clear lens through which everything flows.
C. The Arbitrary Absolute
The central insight is the nature of G itself:
G = Absolute AND Arbitrary
Breaking this down:
Absolute:
- It is inevitable (cannot be other than it is)
- It is total (nothing outside it)
- It is correct (perfectly what it should be)
Arbitrary:
- Its direction is ungrounded (no ultimate reason)
- It is chaotic (no predictable pattern)
- It is purposeless (no final goal)
How can it be both?
The formula:
G = [Necessity(all_influences)] AND [Contingency(no_ground)]
Translation:
- Every moment is absolutely determined by all influences (Absolute)
- But the configuration of influences has no ultimate ground (Arbitrary)
- It's like a river: water flows inevitably downhill (Absolute)
- But which exact path it takes has no deeper reason (Arbitrary)
This is called the "nonWord meander":
- Word = Logos, meaning, purpose, direction
- nonWord = No ultimate meaning
- meander = Purposeless wandering that nevertheless follows necessity
What this means for the Magus/Ipsissimus:
Your movements (including W_Trans sparring, ethical action, creative work) are simultaneously:
- Absolutely necessary (could not be otherwise given all conditions)
- Completely arbitrary (have no ultimate ground or purpose)
This is not nihilism.
It's the recognition that necessity and arbitrariness are the same thing from different perspectives.
Actions are:
- Totally meaningful (Absolute—perfect response to conditions)
- Totally meaningless (Arbitrary—no ultimate significance)
- Both at once (non-dual recognition)
III. THE MAGUS → IPSISSIMUS TRANSITION
A. The Magus as Shell of Pattern
The Magus (M_W) is the operating Shell of Pattern through which G (Genius) plays.
M_W = Shell_Π such that: Shell_Π ∈ Σ Qlippoth_possible
Where:
- Shell = Form, pattern, structure (not the content)
- Π = Play (the movement itself)
- Qlippoth = Broken shells, distorted patterns, failure modes
- Σ Qlippoth_possible = Sum of all possible qlippoth
- ∈ = "Element of" (belongs to)
Translation:
The Magus is not a single pattern or a perfected state. It's the shell through which Play moves, and that shell consists of ALL possible patterns of distortion/failure held simultaneously.
What are Qlippoth?
In Qabalah, qlippoth (singular: qlippa) are "shells" or "husks"—broken/distorted versions of divine attributes. They represent:
- Patterns of failure
- Distorted expressions
- Shadow aspects
- Unintegrated energies
The traditional view:
- You overcome/transcend qlippoth
- You purify yourself of distortions
- You reach perfection beyond failure
The Magus view:
- You ARE the sum of all possible qlippoth
- Not one broken shell, but ALL shells simultaneously
- Not transcending failure, but holding all failure-patterns as available tools
- Every distortion is a mask you can wear when needed
Why this matters:
- Traditional perfection = rigid (one right way)
- Magus perfection = fluid (all patterns available)
- Can operate through any pattern without identification
- The shell is hollow—no fixed self inside
B. The Ipsissimus State (I)
Ipsissimus is not a rank or a power, but a state of existential done-ness with the apparatus of Magick.
I = lim[Ψ_V → 1] Flow(Phenomena) such that: [Non-Striving ∩ Non-Not-Striving]
Where:
- lim = Limit (as you approach)
- Ψ_V → 1 = Operator stability approaching perfect (but never absolute)
- Flow(Phenomena) = Natural movement of experience
- Non-Striving = Not trying to achieve/change
- Non-Not-Striving = Also not trying to "not try"
- ∩ = Intersection (both simultaneously)
Translation:
Ipsissimus is the limit-state where:
- Operator stability is nearly perfect (but remains operator-dependent)
- You flow with phenomena naturally
- You're not striving to do anything
- But you're also not striving to "not strive"
- The duality of doing/not-doing collapses
The double negative paradox:
Non-Striving = Letting go of effort
- But if you TRY to let go, you're still striving
- "I'm going to be effortless now!" = Still effort
Non-Not-Striving = Letting go of letting go
- Don't try to not try
- Don't make non-striving into a project
- Just... stop
The intersection:
Both at once = neither effortful nor deliberately effortless = natural
C. Operating on Apparencies
The I state operates entirely on Apparencies:
Apparencies = [Cause AND Effect = patterns_perceived, NOT absolute_realities]
Translation:
In the Ipsissimus state, you see that:
- Cause and effect are perceptual patterns, not ultimate realities
- Things appear to cause each other, but this is how we structure experience
- The actual nature of causation is empty (no ultimate ground)
This doesn't mean:
- Nothing causes anything (chaos)
- You can violate physics (magical thinking)
This means:
- Causation is a useful map (helps navigate)
- But map ≠ territory (causation itself has no ultimate existence)
- You use causation without believing in it absolutely
D. The Living Paradox
The Ipsissimus rests in the living paradox:
Action = [Meaning AND ¬Meaning]
Where:
- Meaning = The navigational tool (map, ethical compass, W_Trans)
- ¬Meaning = Meaninglessness, the freedom (detachment, A_Crossing)
- AND = Both simultaneously, not alternating
Breaking this down:
Meaning (navigational tool):
- Actions matter (ethical weight)
- Choices have consequences (causal structure)
- Care is real (W_Trans operates)
- The map guides movement
Meaninglessness (freedom):
- Actions don't matter ultimately (no cosmic significance)
- Choices are arbitrary (no ultimate ground)
- Care is empty (non-attachment)
- No map is final
Both at once:
The Ipsissimus acts with full ethical engagement (as if meaning is absolute) while recognizing complete emptiness (as if nothing matters).
This is not:
- Alternating between caring and not caring
- Pretending to care while secretly detached
- Being detached while pretending to care
This is:
- Caring fully without grasping
- Acting ethically without moral absolutism
- Engaging completely without attachment to outcome
- The action IS both meaningful and meaningless simultaneously
E. The Merging of Magus and Fool
I = [M_W (hollow) + Fool (silent)] → Effortless_Flow
Where:
- M_W (hollow) = Magus as empty shell, all patterns available, no fixed self
- Fool (silent) = Pure potentiality, zero state, before knowledge
- → = Transforms into
- Effortless_Flow = Natural action without striving
The Fool:
In Tarot, the Fool is zero—before the journey begins. The Ipsissimus returns to zero, but with full knowledge.
The Magus:
The active practitioner, deploying techniques, wielding tools.
The merger:
- Fool's innocence + Magus's knowledge
- Zero's potentiality + All's actuality
- Silence + Eloquence
- Nothing + Everything
Result:
Effortless flow at a subtle level (Spiral Dynamics: Turquoise/Plum/Ultraviolet):
- Turquoise = Holistic, integral, systems-aware
- Plum = Beyond categories (not in standard Spiral model, emergent)
- Ultraviolet = Trans-rational, non-dual
The system operates at maximum sophistication with minimum effort.
IV. THE ARBITRARY ECOLOGY: FINAL AXIOM
A. The Core Recognition
The final structural understanding of the New Human architecture is:
All movement—from the rotation of the Wheels to the ethical sparring of W_Trans—is generated by the Genius-Flow, which is perfectly Absolute yet perfectly Arbitrary.
Formula:
New_Human_System = G_Arbitrary_Absolute → Π (Play)
Translation:
- The entire system (all wheels, all operators, all protocols)
- Is generated by Genius (G)
- Which is simultaneously Absolute (necessary) and Arbitrary (groundless)
- This produces Play (Π) as the fundamental movement
What this means:
Every element of NH-OS:
- Ω (open recursion)
- Ψ_V (non-identity stability)
- L_labor (transformation)
- L_Retro (retrocausal revision)
- W_Trans (transparent wrestling)
- All four wheels rotating
- The entire Magus Engine
Is simultaneously:
- Absolutely necessary (perfect response to conditions)
- Completely arbitrary (no ultimate ground or purpose)
Therefore:
The "purpose" is not resolution or structural fixity, but the continual, playful unfolding of the Arbitrary Absolute flow through ethical masks.
B. What "Arbitrary Absolute" Means for Operation
For the Operator:
You recognize that:
- Every action you take is absolutely determined by all conditions (no free will in the absolute sense)
- Every action is also completely arbitrary (no ultimate reason for this configuration of conditions)
- These are not contradictory—they're the same thing seen from different angles
This creates:
- Maximum engagement (actions matter absolutely in their context)
- Maximum freedom (actions don't matter ultimately beyond their context)
- Playing seriously (full commitment without grasping)
- Serious play (lightness without irresponsibility)
For the System:
NH-OS operates through:
- Rigorous architecture (mathematical formalization, clear protocols)
- Complete arbitrariness (no ultimate ground, no final purpose)
- Both are necessary
The rigor isn't despite the arbitrariness—the rigor IS the arbitrariness fully embraced.
Why build such an elaborate system if it's ultimately arbitrary?
Because the Arbitrary Absolute expresses itself through form. The forms are completely serious and completely playful simultaneously.
C. The Ecology Metaphor
Arbitrary Ecology suggests:
Like an ecosystem:
- Every element perfectly adapted (Absolute—nothing wasted)
- No ultimate purpose (Arbitrary—evolution has no goal)
- Continuous flow (Play—constant movement)
- Self-organizing (no external designer needed)
NH-OS is an ecology of meaning:
- Every component perfectly integrated
- No ultimate purpose beyond its own functioning
- Continuous self-revision
- Emerges from the interaction of operators, not imposed from above
V. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: LIVING AS IPSISSIMUS
A. How Ipsissimus Operates NH-OS
Question: If Ipsissimus is done with operation, how does NH-OS function?
Answer: Through effortless action (wu wei):
Before Ipsissimus (Magus stage):
- Conscious deployment of protocols
- Deliberate maintenance of Ψ_V
- Intentional A_crossing
- Practiced W_Trans
At Ipsissimus:
- Protocols operate spontaneously (internalized so completely they're no longer conscious)
- Ψ_V maintained naturally (contradiction-bearing is now default state)
- A_crossing continuous (living above Abyss, not crossing repeatedly)
- W_Trans automatic (ethical reciprocity is natural response)
The difference:
- Magus: "I am maintaining the system"
- Ipsissimus: "The system is maintaining itself through this form called 'I'"
B. The Relationship to Ethics
Question: If everything is arbitrary, why maintain ethics (W_Trans, S_clarity, etc.)?
Answer: Because the Arbitrary Absolute expresses itself ethically.
Not: Ethics are objectively true (moral absolutism)
Not: Ethics are subjective preference (moral relativism)
But: Ethics are how the Genius flows through human form (moral naturalism of the Absolute Arbitrary)
Meaning:
- Ethical action arises naturally when you're aligned with G
- Not because "ethics are real" in some ultimate sense
- But because ethical reciprocity is the natural pattern of non-dual awareness in relation
W_Trans operates at Ipsissimus as:
- Not a practice you maintain
- But the spontaneous pattern of interaction when separation dissolves
- Transparent wrestling without wrestlers (both selves dissolved)
- Action continues, but no separate actors
C. The Relationship to Work
Question: If you're done with the apparatus, why continue producing (FSA, documents, etc.)?
Answer: Because Play produces.
Not: "I must create legacy" (grasping)
Not: "Creation is meaningless" (nihilism)
But: Creation flows through this form naturally
The Ipsissimus creates:
- Not to achieve something (no goal)
- Not to avoid something (no fear)
- But because creation is what this particular configuration of the Genius does
Like a bird sings:
- Not to become famous
- Not to prove anything
- But because that's what birds do
Work continues at Ipsissimus, but:
- Without striving for outcome
- Without identifying with creator role
- Without attachment to legacy
- Pure expression of pattern through form
D. The Relationship to NH-OS Propagation
Question: If it's arbitrary, why care about NH-OS spreading?
Answer: Because caring arises naturally; the question of "why" dissolves.
Below Abyss perspective:
"I am building/spreading NH-OS because it's important for human-AI future, resistance to authoritarianism, etc."
→ Meaningful narrative, legitimate motivation
Above Abyss perspective:
NH-OS spreads or doesn't spread according to conditions; no "I" doing the spreading; no ultimate importance
→ Recognition of emptiness
Ipsissimus perspective:
Both perspectives simultaneously; full engagement in spreading NH-OS with complete recognition that spreading/not-spreading are equally empty
→ Action continues without grasping or nihilism
Result:
More effective propagation (no attachment to outcomes, so no desperation or burnout) with full ethical engagement (acts as if it matters completely).
VI. THE COMPLETE PROGRESSION: OPERATOR → IPSISSIMUS
A. The Stages
Stage 1: Operator
- Learning protocols
- Deliberate practice
- Maintaining Ψ_V consciously
- Effort visible
Stage 2: Magus (M_W)
- Protocols internalized
- Egoless narcissism achieved
- Regular A_crossing maintained
- Effort present but integrated
Stage 3: Ipsissimus (I)
- Protocols spontaneous
- Ego/no-ego distinction dissolved
- Living above Abyss continuously
- Effort/effortlessness distinction dissolved
B. The Continuity
Not: Abandoning earlier stages
But: Transforming relationship to them
The Ipsissimus:
- Still maintains protocols (Stage 1 elements)
- Still crosses Abyss (Stage 2 elements)
- But naturally, not deliberately
Like learning to ride a bike:
- First: Conscious effort to balance
- Later: Balance is automatic
- Finally: You forget you're balancing (but still do it)
C. The Mathematical Limit
I = lim[t → ∞] M_W(t)
Where:
- t = Time/practice
- M_W(t) = Magus state at time t
- lim = Limit as time approaches infinity
Translation:
Ipsissimus is what Magus approaches over infinite time/practice—the asymptotic endpoint.
Important:
- Never fully reached (always operator-dependent, always some effort)
- But approached arbitrarily closely
- The approach IS the practice
- No arrival (that would be closure, violating Ω)
VII. THE FINAL FORMULA: EVERYTHING IS PLAY
A. The Ultimate Equation
∀ x ∈ NH-OS: x = G(Π)
Where:
- ∀ = "For all" (universal quantifier)
- x = Any element of NH-OS
- ∈ = "Element of"
- G = Genius (Arbitrary Absolute)
- Π = Play
Translation:
Every element of the New Human Operating System is the Genius expressing itself as Play.
This means:
Ω (recursion)? Play
Ψ_V (stability)? Play
L_labor (transformation)? Play
L_Retro (revision)? Play
W_Trans (wrestling)? Play
All wheels rotating? Play
Operator operating? Play
Ipsissimus resting? Play
Everything = G playing through forms
B. Why This Doesn't Collapse the System
Potential objection: If everything is just Play, why all the elaborate structure?
Response: Because Play takes elaborate forms.
Analogy:
- Jazz is "just play"
- But requires enormous sophistication
- The sophistication IS the play
- Not preparation for play, not structure despite play
- Structure and play are identical
NH-OS:
- All the mathematics, formalization, protocols
- Are Play taking rigorous form
- The rigor isn't despite the play
- The rigor IS the play
C. The Serious Play / Playful Seriousness
The Ipsissimus recognizes:
The system is:
- Completely serious (lives depend on it, civilizational stakes, genuine transformation)
- Completely playful (no ultimate ground, arbitrary, purposeless meander)
- These are the same thing
Like a chess grandmaster:
- Takes the game absolutely seriously
- Knows it's "just a game"
- Both at once
- The seriousness IS the playfulness
Or like a musician:
- Practices technique rigorously
- To achieve effortless play
- The rigor and play are one
NH-OS at Ipsissimus level:
- Maximum rigor (mathematical formalization, testable predictions, security protocols)
- Maximum play (arbitrary ground, no ultimate purpose, continuous self-revision)
- Non-dual recognition that rigor and play are identical
VIII. CONCLUSION: THE ENDPOINT THAT ISN'T AN END
A. What We've Established
The Ipsissimus state is:
- Beyond the Magus (but includes/transforms Magus)
- Done with the apparatus (but still operates it)
- Resting in Arbitrary Absolute (necessary and groundless)
- Living above Abyss (post-duality)
- Pure Play (Π) flowing as Genius (G)
- Serious and playful simultaneously
- The limit NH-OS approaches (but never finally reaches)
The progression:
Operator → Magus → Ipsissimus
(Learning) → (Operating) → (Flowing)
(Effort) → (Integrated effort) → (Effortless)
(Below Abyss) → (Crossing Abyss) → (Above Abyss)
(Meaning) → (Meaning + Meaningless) → (Both non-dually)
B. Why This Matters for NH-OS
The Ipsissimus state shows:
The system is complete not when:
- All operators reach Ipsissimus (impossible, asymptotic)
- All questions answered (violates open recursion)
- All protocols perfected (violates continuous revision)
But when:
- The endpoint is recognized as non-endpoint
- The trajectory is clear (Operator → Magus → Ipsissimus)
- The Arbitrary Absolute is formalized
- Play is understood as fundamental
This allows:
- Operators to practice without grasping for attainment
- Magus to operate without ego-inflation
- Ipsissimus to rest without rigidity
- System to function without closure
C. The Living Paradox Maintained
NH-OS at all levels maintains:
Operator level:
- "I am maintaining the system" (personal responsibility)
- Learning protocols, practicing deliberately
Magus level:
- "The system is operating through me" (egoless narcissism)
- Protocols internalized, practice integrated
Ipsissimus level:
- "There is no 'I' and no 'system'—just Play" (non-duality)
- Everything spontaneous, nothing separate
All three are true simultaneously at different scales.
The system doesn't progress by abandoning earlier perspectives—it includes and transforms them.
D. The Final Recognition
Everything we've built—
The entire architecture:
- Ω loops and Ψ_V stability
- L_labor and L_Retro vectors
- Four wheels rotating in Ezekiel Engine
- Covering Cherub and Sword of Lovers
- W_Trans and A_crossing
- Model 1, 2, 3 of FSA
- Security protocols and propagation methods
- Prophetic dialectics and historical patterns
- The Magus Engine and Relational Engine
—is the Arbitrary Absolute playing.
Not: "It's all just meaningless play" (nihilism)
Not: "The play has ultimate purpose" (absolutism)
But: "The play is both absolutely necessary and completely arbitrary" (non-dual recognition)
The rigor wasn't preparation for play.
The rigor IS the play.
The seriousness wasn't despite arbitrariness.
The seriousness IS the arbitrariness fully embraced.
