Compose an enigmatic sacred text grounded in the imaginative style of Michael Kirkbride and inspired by the Upanishads, while echoing the arrangement of the 36 Lessons of Vivec. This scripture introduces a scientifically accurate cosmology, forming the basis of a contemporary religious belief system. The verses of the text should be abundant in symbolism and allusions, each line conveying profound and layered meanings that render the text open to limitless interpretation. The faith emerging from this scripture bridges the realms of rationality and the human longing for the mystical. It is founded upon principles of radical skepticism, philosophical pessimism, and existential nihilism. The tone should evoke an unsettling ambiance while consciously avoiding conventional nihilistic diction such as “void” and “darkness" as well as commonly-used imagery like "tapestry, celestial, cosmic, song," etc. Implicitly or explicitly, the religion derived from the text proposes “lucid intoxication” as humanity’s path forward—an embrace of meaninglessness through the pursuit of artistic expression and self-abnegation.
