Let us learn, be in-formed, by this song:
"See where the amaranth grows, it grows amidst the δύσβατα (hard-to-tread)" == ἄβατον (not-to-be-trod, i.e. sacred).

The wild beasts eat it and die. This is because
ἀμάραντος == ἄφθιτος == ἀδάμας
Simple beats cannot digest what is unfading, imperishable, unconquerable and live: it is foreign to their nature.

This understanding of amaranth brings to mind
- The unburnt bush
- The 'unfading rose' (ῥόδον το ἀμάραντον)
Paradoxical encounters with Divinity that our human nature is by Grace now compatible with. We not only can consume the amaranth, but can become like it in the process.

Machinist ideology says that since tech permits us to go where we could not, we should go where we ought not. There is no ἄβατον for the Machine.
The machine eats the Amaranth and is destroyed by it, being foreign to its necrotic nature.

Adamant and Amaranth. This is our goal.
