It depends on what you're interested in.

The nirvana is physiological stuff, UG Krishnamurti.

The last man, revulsion against time, gnosticism stuff: Heidegger's lectures on What is Thinking? and Voegelin's writings on Second Realities, Gnosticism, and Hegel.

The spatiotemporal realism stuff: Whitehead's responses to Kant

The stuff on genius, the Pharaoh, and Atum: Weininger's Sex & Character, the CTMU, and the Egyptian articles on sofiatopia

The Leviathan stuff: Fredy Perlman's Against His-Story, Against Leviathan, David L Clarke's article on the "carnivorous virility" of Hegelian philosophy (as part of a collection available on libgen, forget the name), and that one blog article on Moloch being a Malthusian trap, forget the name but you can google it

The occlusion, wetiko, bronze bull rigamarole: Bakker's Blind Brain Theory, his in-universe description of Cants of Compulsion in his Prince of Nothing series, the Introduction to Magic Vol II essay on post-hypnotic suggestions, an article on wetikos and PKD's Black Iron Prison (which you'll have to google, forget the name) and Shestov's Athens & Jerusalem, where he describes the universe as a Bull of Phalaris

The good and evil, absolute indifference stuff: Schelling's Inquiry into the Essence of Human Freedom, Ages of the World, and David L Clarke's paper on Schelling's ungrund (which again I forget the name of, has to do with Derrida and the "melancholy of being")

Quantum mechanics and Hegel: Zizek's Less Than Nothing

And finally, Enzo Paci's phenomenological diaries and the Voegelin dictionary, both available online.

>So, the cosmic cycle of Atum (the presence of the actual universe and its dispensation) is made part of the larger cycle of cosmoi, the truly "eternal" recurrent process. Actual creation is then but one possible drawing together of Atum to a creative point of ultimate density among an infinite number of possible contractions and subsequent universes. The creation of the universe is recurrent, and this is the truly eternal cycle of Atum, each time rising and setting as the creator of a new universe.

>A periodic steady state unfolds : Atum is dormant, autogenerates himself and brings all luminous things into existence. After a very very long time, Atum destroys the world and returns, together with Osiris, to a period of latency, after which a new cycle of creativity is begun, and this ad infinitum.
