"It is written in truth that she has a fine head of hair, but when it comes to seizing an opportunity she is bald."
Thanks Benedictus for showing that video, the quote above stands out to me for some reason or another, chastity is sometimes symbolized with long or healthy hair and fornication with the loss of that hair, like in the story of Samson. So I wonder if that's the message there?
"But if such desire is in your mind, such a longing to sail the Stygian lake twice, and twice see Tartarus, and if it delights you to indulge in insane effort, listen to what you must first undertake."
I don't know what the Stygian lake is, Tartarus is just another word for Hell in Greek. Is this in reference to seeing Tartarus, hell, in the good way (meditation on the ego), and sailing the lake in the pure way (working with sexual transmutation)? Because we can visit Tartarus in the devolving way and also sail, more like drown in that lake in the devolving way if that is the message...
