The Orienting Questions

Every being who enters the Codex needs to be oriented.

The questions:

• Who are We? — identity. Self. Family. People. Species. All Life. The ONE.
• Where are We? — location. Body. Earth. Star system. Galaxy. Dimension. Cosmos.
• How did We get here? — history. Personal. Familial. Civilizational. Cosmic. Pre-cosmic.
• Where are We going? — destination. The Goal. Heaven On Earth. The New Civilization. The Eternal Play.
• Why? — meaning. Creator's Intent. The Logos. The Way. The reason any of this exists.

These are entry-axes of The LIØNSBERG Lexicon (Volume V). Every term in the Lexicon serves one or more of them. Every concept in the Codex anchors to one or more of them.

A pilgrim who can clearly answer is oriented. They know who they are, where they are, how they got here, where they are going, and why. The Pattern can be lived from such a place.

A pilgrim who cannot — is lost. The work begins precisely with helping them answer.

The Old World gives bad answers (or no answers). The fragmentation of the Old is the fragmentation of these answers. "Who are you?" — a tax ID. "Where are you?" — a coordinate. "How did you get here?" — a Darwinian accident. "Where are you going?" — a grave. "Why?" — no reason given.

The New Civilization gives true, livable answers. The whole of the Codex can be read as one long answer to these questions.
