INTRODUCTION

 

 


1. INCEPTION -
THE ISLE OF LIGHT
(The Existential Absolute)

L I G H T .

Light without end.

Light ablaze in multiphasic manifestation.

Light ashimmer in variety past tabulation.

Light radiant, pure and transparent.

Ethereal. Ineffable. Speeding from the Source.

Reflected in nondimensional directions. Absorbed. Re-emitted.

Prismatic and pristine.

 

* * *

 

Liquid light. Rivers agleam. Shimmering

streams. Cohering, intertwining luminance.

 

Solid light. Glowing forms. Ceaseless,

scintillating transmutation patterned in

crystalline changelessness.

 

Light alive. Blazing. Darting.

 

* * *

 

Land of light. Spreading regions. Textured

glow and sparkle.

 

Cities of light. Radiant metropolises.

Gleaming structures. Glittering motions.

Prismatic populations.

 

Isle of light. Lumination of all reality. Ovoid

of flawless radiance at infinity's focal point.

 

At the midpoint of the Holy Isle's upper

surface, the Center of Centers.

 

The One True Source.

 

* * *

 

Oh Great Giver of Light. Oh Endless

Bestower of Being. Oh Boundless and

Selfless Cornucopia. How

completely art Thou to be honored.

TOP 2. VITALIZATION -
LIFE ON PARADISE
(The Subabsolute)

Within the Absolute Center, structure. Not

as spatiality or temporality, but as primacy.

Derivity. Conjoinity.

 

In the Central Shining, no before. No after.

No space. No direction. No substance. No

spirit. No change. No time. No interval. No sequence.

 

* * *

 

Thou art the One. The Eternal Giver.

Limitless Upholder. Father of Spirits.

Purposely self-limited Being. Withdrawn

from undifferentiated infinity. Cast in divine

consistency.

 

* * *

 

Close to the One, perceptible reality thinning.

Away from the Center of Centers, the

stirrings of subabsolute existence. Direction

appearing.

 

The subabsolute space of matter, mind, and

spirit born out of the absoluteness of Paradise

space. Radiating from the Eternal Isle,

dimensional spokes on a boundless wheel.

 

* * *

 

Paradise substance predating the divergence

of matter, mind, and spirit. Built of

motionless atoms, containing no inherent

motion. Incorruptible substantiality.

 

* * *

 

Beings of inert Paradise substance

experiencing sequence of events with no

awareness of interval. Inhabiting eternity.

An estate. An absence of time.

 

* * *

 

Oh blessed estate, near to Thee in form and

function. Brought forth and sustained by

Thine own Hand. Configured in endlessness

of reality and relevance.

 

My heart cleaves to Thee, Great Cause and

Purpose of my Being. My heart cleaves to

Thee.

 

* * *

 

Paradise mind, its fabric the same still,

monolithic substance as that of the Holy Isle.

Sentiency free of inherent motion of thought.

Paradise inhabitants attuned to the Divine

Will, with thoughts flashing direct from the

Infinite Consciousness.

 

Divinely indited contemplations, each

awaiting acceptance or rejection.

 

* * *

 

The shining material and space of the Holy

Isle, directly responsive to Paradise mind.

Beings expressing meanings and

relationships through volitional changes of

form and environment and traversing the

Sacred Precincts by means of thought.

 

* * *

 

Strata of Paradise existence. Energies

grounded in individual levels. Entities

co-existing, super-existing, and sub-existing.

Commissioned to individual missions and

enterprises. Drawing powers and abilities

from roots sunk deep into individual

channels of reality.

 

* * *

 

The majesty of Thy ways is beyond

searching. I rejoice in the touch of Thy

ever-guiding Hand within my soul. Thy

Love and Upliftment are my utmost

inspiration.

 

Endless praise to Thee, oh Great and Infinite

Father.

§

 


TOP 3. CONCEPTUALIZATION -
THE DIVINE PRE-ECHO
(The Prefinite Absonite)

Rippling waves of reality spreading into the

void and replicating the glory of Paradise.

The sacred cycle unfolding.

 

Ringing the Isle of Light, a thousand million

never-created, never-ending worlds. The

realm of prefinity. Superfinite. Less than

absolute, more than finite.

 

Paradise realities attenuated to the level of

prefinity. Prefinite substance and space

semiresponsive to volition. Paradise, yet not

fully Paradise.

 

Prefinite beings perceiving time as a static

structure of many levels. Entities nonexistent

at a time predating the level of their function.

Existent at a level corresponding to the time

of their function.

 

* * *

 

Prefinite planners entering the dark finite

space ring surrounding prefinite space.

Manipulating rivers of nascent force flowing

from Paradise. Imbuing finite space with

finite potentialities of being based on

prefinite perceptions of Paradise reality.

 

Prefinite constructors preparing

nonvolitionally responsive finite space and

substance for the development and function

of finite will beings. Conveying motion from

their realm. Willing energies into subtle

swirlings of inherent motion. Presaging

natural law of finite matter, mind, and spirit.

§

 


TOP 4. REALIZATION -
BRINGING FORTH THE MANY
(The Finite)

Constructors from Paradise journeying to the

finite space ring. Channelling energetic flows

in maturing finite space. Patterning

precipitating energy into matter. Implanting

finite life on cooling worlds.

 

Beings of time and space appearing.

Reflections of paradise emerging. Family.

Love. Morals. Ideals. Values. Civilization.

 

Teachers. Prophets. Visitations. Upturned

faces. Tears of joy.

 

Resurrections. Streams of souls rising to

successive spirit spheres. Perfecting.

Ascending to Paradise.

 

Finite experience and growth completed. All

time-space experience consciously shared by

every finite celestial and mortal being.

§

 


TOP 5. CONSUMMATION -
THE VISION FULFILLED
(The Postfinite Absonite)

Beyond finite space, the ring of postfinite

space. Postfinite beings evolving in

volitionally pseudoresponsive postfinite

space and substance.

 

Guided by teachers from the finite realm

embodying all of the experience

and values of time and space.

Reaching with their superfinite beings

for the currents of eternity and the

pathways of infinity.

 

Discovering meanings and values in their realm,

the transcendent, grounded in the finite

and consummated in the superfinite.

Unification of the prefinite and postfinite

realms as the single superfinite.

§

 


TOP 6. FINALITY -
THE UNENDING ENDING
(The Experiential Absolute)

Outside the postfinite domain, an endless

ring of projected experiential absoluteness.

 

Completed beings inhabiting experiential

absolute substance and space, which respond

directly to will. Attainment of absolute

existence by all experiential beings of the

finite, superfinite, and absolute realms.

 

The sacred cycle completed. From existential

absolute perfection on the Isle of Paradise to

experiential absolute perfection in the

universe absolute. All living beings

participating in the fruits of absolute

existence.

 

* * *

 

Praise and love to Thee, Infinite Father.

Praise Thy eternal and perfect plans. Praise

Thy undertakings. Praise Thy love for Thy

children. Praise Thy perfect purposes. Praise

Thee in all Thy ways. All praise to Thee.

INTRODUCTION

There is a purpose
That has no end.

There is a thrill
That has no equal.

There is a song
That has no diminuendo.

There is a hope
That has no quenching.

There is a family
That has no outsiders.

To understand this is to
embrace the Sacred Cycle.
