The other day, a Beyonder asked me:

“But why is a Secrets Supplicant praising the Hermit?”

At the time, I merely answered that I had once been a Beyonder of the Sun pathway before switching to Sequence 2 of this pathway during the Fourth Epoch. But that was only half an answer. As an angel who claims to follow the Hermit, I find myself ashamed of that incomplete response, so I will use today’s sermon to give the other half.

A Secrets Supplicant longs to know. We yearn to understand what others cannot. But the pursuit of knowledge without guidance is like sailing an endless ocean without stars. It is precisely because we seek secrets that we follow the Hermit.

Many believe that knowledge is merely the accumulation of information: books, ritualistic magic, formulas, hidden names. That is a grave misunderstanding. True knowledge is not merely quantity, but understanding.

The monsters of the cosmos know secrets. Evil entities know ancient truths. So what separates us from them?

Direction.

They are devoured by knowledge, while we learn to bear it. The Hermit is the culmination of this philosophy. He proves that truth can be mastered without losing oneself within it.

Now let me ask you this:

When a Beyonder uncovers a dangerous secret, who teaches him how to interpret it?

When corruption attempts to invade your mind, who protects your reason?

When the endless truths of the universe threaten to crush the human soul, who separates wisdom from madness?

\-Raises both hands toward the sky-

That´s right. *The Hermit.*

We dont believe in Him out of fear, is not because we are ignorant of knowledge. We believe in Him because we understand the price of seeking knowledge.

And because among countless paths that lead to madness… He found one that leads to enlightenment.
