The stone is uncarved — this word has no glyph yet. The place was prepared before the carving.

Definition

The living organic world-axis that is simultaneously the structure of reality and the instrument of the divine self-sacrifice — received as cosmic ordinance. The cosmic axis as LIVING WOOD: growing, suffering, under constant attack, requiring ritual tending to survive, and named for the wound that opened knowledge. The world held together by the shape of a wound.

Evidential structure
