existence and illumination – is what the Western wisdom tradition calls ‘The Mystical Marriage’.

It refers to the love affair and union of opposites, and comprises the fundamental teaching and revelation of the Middle Eastern / European wisdom traditions, otherwise known collectively as the Western Wisdom Tradition. Its corresponding term in the tradition of the East would be ‘Yoga’, referring to the union of the individual with the universal, the natural with the spiritual, the human with the divine.

It embraces in its meaning what is called ‘the Marriage of Heaven and Earth’, poetically described in the famous Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus as well as in some of the Shake-speare sonnets. The term ‘Geocosmology’ refers to this marriage of heaven and earth with particular respect to our planet.

“Reality is made of words.”

He explains that “Magic is the art of the word that enchants and has concrete effects upon the world. The words that we speak shape our reality more deeply that we generally acknowledge.

One postmodern philosopher [Terence McKenna] pushes the idea so far as to say that the real secret of magic is that the world is made of words. Those who know the right words can realize virtually everything they want.”

For concrete proofs, see Buscema’s TEDx talk:
