Outside-That which lies beyond the World. Most commentators follow Ajencis's so-called Dyadic Theory when characterizing the World and its relation to the Outside. In Meta-a.n.a.lytics, Meta-a.n.a.lytics, Ajencis argues that it is the relation between subject and object, desire and reality, that underwrites the structure of existence. The World, he argues, is simply the point of maximal objectivity, the plane where the desires of individual souls are helpless before circ.u.mstance (because it is fixed by the desire of the G.o.d of G.o.ds). The many regions of the Outside then represent diminis.h.i.+ng levels of objectivity, where circ.u.mstances yield more and more to desire. This, he claims, is what defines the "spheres of dominance" of G.o.ds and demons. As he writes, "the greater will commands." The more powerful ent.i.ties of the Outside dwell in "sub-realities" that conform to their desires. This is what makes piety and devotion so important: the more favour an individual can secure in the Outside (primarily through the wors.h.i.+p of G.o.ds and the honouring of ancestors), the greater the chance of finding bliss rather than torment in the afterlife.
