Hierogrammates, Briah and Yesod

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

But if Yesod is this kind of meta-eternity, why is it important to the
Hiero-dudes to engineer outcomes in one particular Briah? All the
Briahs would be accessible from Yesod, including the one which gave rise to
them. Why do they care about some other Briah?

I'm probably missing something here, but my own reading is different. I
think Yesod sits above only the Briah we are shown, not above past and
future creations. The islands of Yesod map to galaxies in Sev's Briah, not
to other Briahs.

The Hiero-dudes escaped their Briah and somehow entered into this Briah's
Yesod, following the lead of their creators. These creators passed on into
the meta-eternity, leaving the Hiero-dudes behind. They now seek to
re-create their creators, and when these ascend, this time they will not be
left behind.

Anyway, that seems consistent to me. But in trying to work it out, I think
one shouldn't forget that Tzadkiel et al often lie. Nothing they say, and
nothing their agents say, needs to be taken as gospel.
