i found insight intoj what it meant in "beezlebub' s tales to his grandson"
i read it as a teenager.
the climax of the book has them bowing to their demonic god who wears horns.
The forns represent something mysterious and supernatural, apparently
can find the passage at the moment
but found this:
""The verses and the image of the Pythagorean Y contain a challenge to students of classical and esoteric philosophy, as well as to mystics of every religion.
Of uncertain authorship, ascribed in a vague way to “Maximinus”, the verses have also been falsely ascribed to Virgil. Yet they are certainly ancient, and the main idea in them belongs to universal wisdom and literature.
They say:
“The Pythagoric Letter two ways spread,
Shows the two paths in which Man’s life is led.
The right hand track to sacred Virtue tends,
Though steep and rough at first, in rest it ends;
The other broad and smooth, but from its Crown
On rocks the Traveller is tumbled down.
He who to Virtue by harsh toils aspires,
Subduing pains, worth and renown acquires;
But who seeks slothful luxury, and flies,
The labor of great acts, dishonored dies.” [1]
The image of such a choice presenting itself to human soul is already present in Hesiod, and one finds a longer description of it at Chapter I, Book II, of Xenophon’s work on the life and sayings of Socrates.
Xenophon narrates how Hercules, in his youth, had to make the choice between the two ways."
the "stairway to heaven" song, "there are two paths you can go on"
So they pick the left hand, not the right?
CAINites?
