Desc. : Understanding of the objective reality not as a sum of objects, but rather as a flow of processes, and oneself in it as a process going from nowhere to nowhere, ontologically lifts self-consciousness from the bodily identity, from the level of finitude of form, eternal sin and suffering, into the creative contemplation, into a being of Meta-Subject, which is having a beginningless and therefore an immortal existence. This transition of the individual to his highest essence came to me through an appeal to Saint Sergius of Radonezh, in the image of a hermit who is dwelling in a total solitude, in cosmic desert nowhere. In the one who has obtained a mercy through the thread of salvation thrown to him, the ray of the Spirit, the Caduceus of Light Transmission-Photodosia. Grace realizes itself through the burning of the conceptual mind, in complete Cataphatic concentration of attention on the sacred image, at the same time antinomically, in appealing the eternal Self of the viewer of this scene, to the Apophatic Nothingness of his own inexpressible essence.
