| “ | 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 sisteres complained to their father Void that he had forgotten his first-born. So Void declared that spirituality was to reside with Aneris in non-being for a time, 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.
