Spirituality (Discordianism)

cquote|Now all of this time, Void was somewhat disturbed. He felt unsatisfied for he had created only physical existence and physical non-existence, and had neglected the spiritual. As he contemplated this, a great quiet was caused and he went into a state of Deep Sleep which lasted for 5 eras. At the end of this ordeal, he begat a brother to Eris and Aneris, that of SPIRITUALITY, who had no name at all.
-Excerpt from "Principia Discordia", page 00057
Spirituality is the nameless brother of Eris and Aneris from Discordian mythology. When his sisters complained to their father Void that he had forgotten his first-born, Void then declared that Spirituality was to reside with Aneris in non-being for a time, after which he would go to Eris in being, and eventually return to Void (Because Eris worried that her sister would return Spirituality to non-being). This myth is used to illustrate the cycle of life from non-being to being and after playing around in existence, back to void.
