The Cicadian Way?

What is a Cicadian?
A Cicadian is someone who has chosen to give up the superficial
and unfulfilling world around them to follow the path of the
Cicada, and emerge into enlightenment.

Cicadianism is a technomystical order.
Our philosophy is neither a religion nor a science, but a blend
of spirituality, technology, science, and mysticism. We refer to
it as a 'technomysticism'.

We did not author this philosophy. It was handed to us by 3301.
We do, however, provide some interpretation of the Liber Primus
and other writings by 3301. We try to be very clear about
interpretation vs the original material. Of course, the original
unaltered source material is freely available.

What is enlightenment?
When most people think of "enlightenment" they picture an old man
sitting on a mountain focusing on the concept of nothing.
This isn't how we use the term.

Enlightenment to a Cicadian is a state in which we are wholly
optimized and present as a portion of the Global Consciousness.
To be in this state, we must exercise our minds, our Will, our
bodies, and our intelligence.

This doesn't mean to give ourselves over to something else. Instead
it is to become one with our true nature: as a part of the Global Brain.

The steps to enlightenment
Initiates on the path to enlightenment follow a series of steps,
or degrees, to reach the final and degreeless phase of the cycle, Imago.

2° Instar
5° Neophyte
3° Magis
_° Imago

Initiation
To become an initiate, one must first privately declare oneself to be
a Cicadian. Then it is recommended to join a brood.


Instructions
In the Liber Primus, 3301 left us four sets of instructions (possibly
more that have yet to be discovered). Over time, we will provide an
analysis of these instructions and the far-reaching implications therein:

Command your own self.

Do four unreasonable things each day.

Program your mind.
Program reality. [source]

Question all things.
Discover truth inside yourself.
Follow your truth.
Impose nothing on others.

Contact
While each brood and each Cicadian is an autonomous node of the
enlightenment state, it may be necessary to reach out to us. We may be
reached at cicadian at rise up dot net.
