The Logic of the Albigen System

The logic of the Albigen System is like plotting a functional curve rather than using syllogistic logic. Our evidence ranges from the improbable to the proven—in research in metaphysical or spiritual matters. There are seldom hard, straight lines.

However, our research is along a soft line from observing improbable data, then probable data, then data proven tentatively or along relative terms, and finally proven in absolute terms.

The chief implement or procedure is the use of a law of probability: Where limits of capacity (capacity for proving better and better) are not known, and yet an orderly set of graduations measures a capacity creating a vector—that vector indicates unlimited capacity.

Let us take the human life expectancy, as an example. We have instances of infant deaths, but we also find statistics of people who reach one hundred years of age. This is the base of graduations. The oldest person may live to 105-110 years of age. If a person can live to be 111, then it is possible for another person to be 112, and so on.

We can see the need to apply this law in spiritual matters where the goal is not known. It has to be a vector away from the improbable. This retreat from ignorance is foolproof and capable of being measured, even if such matter forever seems subjective, for it ends in genuine reality. If a man is ignorant and later becomes less ignorant, he has changed, as he has become a bit of something else.

We went from the kite to the airplane. With the gasoline engine we reached a maximum speed of perhaps two or three hundred miles an hour. The potential for speed, thus, seems infinite. We merely had to find another motor to extend the previous limits.

If a man measures his I.Q., he employs a graduated system, and his potential is unlimited. When man, in measuring his capacity [of mind] realizes that all his knowledge is relative, and feels that this relative mind will forever limit his becoming, then perhaps he, like the airplane, needs to develop another faculty.

Ultimate Reality can only be a probability when defined by the relative mind. Capital R Reality was intended to be an ultimate or absolute term, but it cannot be comprehended by mountains of writings or words. It manifestly follows that man will have to find or become another faculty.

Thomas Aquinas said, "The finite mind shall never perceive the infinite." But if the human mind finds a faculty for perceiving the infinite, or if it becomes more infinite in nature, then it can "perceive" the infinite.

It is not enough to develop this faculty. It is also necessary to persist with it until Capital R Reality is reached; and on top of that, it is necessary to bring it back to those with limitations of the relative mind, in some definable, sensible, if not logical terms, so that others can see without the need for logical terms.

The Great Work is to Become, then to translate, then to inspire, and if necessary, to effect transmission.
