Iconoclasm

Translated by Alexander Jardine Hunter.

Iconoclasm.

Bright light, peaceful light, Free light, light unbound, What is this, brother light? In thy warm home thou'rt found.

By censers smoked, by priest-robes choked, Fettered and fooled, and by icons ruled.

uh cokie did this sweet little handstand out of nowhere during a back and forth sequence with shino then turned ahead a standing cross body for a two count and she followed up with a nice little delayed suplex for another two count uh cokie and shino were fighting on the ropes as we got the five minute call and the way shino kept managing to hold on while cokie just like pounded on her impressed the crowd a lot that's one flexible girl i guess um But yeah, the part where she kept running into these kind of weak-looking boots from Koki was a bit flatter.

But then it ended with Shido hitting these repeated Venus Palm Strikes, followed by the Iconoclasm for a two-count.

That looked better.

Shido kept trying to win the backslide, but Koki ended up putting her away at the TKO, followed by the Twisting Splash off the top.

You don't let the inherited belief systems and norms of lifestyles dictate your direction and mindset.

Iconoclasm is an internal revolution of the mind.

It's liberating yourself from the limiting structures imposed upon you since you were a child and replacing them with those of your own design.

I'm always opening my mind up to receive new.

Chapter 15.

The Iconoclasts.

A.D. 720 through 802.

If Leo the Isaurian had died on the day on which the army of the Caliph raised the siege of Constantinople, it would have been well for his reputation in history.

The Byzantine Empire by Charles William Chadwick Oman.

Chapter sixteen, The End of the Iconoclasts, AD eight oh two to eight eight six.

The iconoclastic controversy was far from being extinguished with the fall of the house of Leo the Isaurian.

So John's book immediately gets him into an impossible political situation because people reading the book go, well, surely you were on the side of Lucifer against the king, against the tyrant.

And surely... you wrote a book justifying the deaths of kings previously, Iconoclastes.

So the text that he produced has become already... confused, conflicted.

And people read the book and they read the first two books of Paradise Lost in particular.

And so they call a council to meet in 786.

But a council convened in Constantinople is stormed by Iconoclast soldiers loyal to the old guard and force will be dispersed before it can act.

So they try in 786.

They start actually a year later.
