CHAPTER 2
THE
UNBOUNDED ABSOLUTE BOUNDED
The original unbounded
absolute, ALL-identity.
----------------------------------------------------------
The indeterminacy of the
ALL-consciousness was caused, among other reasons, by the fact that IT
contained ALL identities bound into a unity. What kind of identity could exist
there in the dark emptiness of the void? Was it something that resembled our
ego? It must have been something like it, because our ego developed from it.
The characteristics of our ego (our I
AM) are: the realization of our unique identity (origin and history), the
feeling of self-respect (the AIM), and the will of self-expression (the
INDIVIDUAL MANIFESTATION.) The original form of an ego (an I am) before
limitation I will refer to as an "entity".
This was rather more complicated in the
infinite; there was not only the will for self-expression, but also the will to
really exist. The absolute entity contained, beside the goal of self-respect,
the goal of another creation equal to the present one, that would lead to the
real existence of his ego. An absolute entity is therefore much more
comprehensive than ours and comparison is impossible. Each entity contained
the power and the capacity for another creation, complete with all the
knowledge, wisdom, and skill connected with it. They were unimaginable entities
with absolute characters that contained the perfect knowledge in, as it were, a
personal memory.
The ALL-consciousness must therefore be
regarded as one consciousness with one knowledge and one will but with an
alternating identity and an almighty power of mutation. If time and speech had
existed, each entity would have had his turn to speak but would have had no
influence on the senate of the tens of thousands because all entities were
equal (because infinite).
Added to this was the fact that every aim necessarily existed of
contradictions and that each entity possessed an indestructible character,
contradiction (because infinite), and so existed an infinite polarization field
that not one entity could breach. They all wanted something different, they
were all equals and all wanted to dominate; so nothing happened.
This is the heart of the matter.
Manifestation of a certain goal could only take place when all the other
entities had identified themselves with it. In other words, our creation could
not have taken place with a democratic majority but needed a unanimous
decision, because ONE entity (being infinite) could have p~ vented it.
The
choice was of the gravest importance. it was not only an irrevocable choice in
the goal of the creation, but also of the character and mentality that they
would acquire. Another consequence of this unanimity was that the goal had to
be dualistic because all the opposing entities had to be able to identify
themselves in it. The WORD was dualistic.
The goal of the creation.
----------------------------
The
new creative power necessary to create the goal has been referred to as the
self-mutating power of a consciousness that could only exist in the finite and
that contained a power that humans also possess.
What
power could this be?
Could
LIFE be this new power? Did the ALL-consciousness LIVE before the limitation?
Was life, this power of movement, change, and active manipulation, a
possibility or an impossibility? It was an impossibility, the ALL did not
live. It was immobile, and manipulation and creativity were impossible. It was
the world of the spirit, of the almight and the alknowledge, of thought and the
thoughts, of insight, wisdom and experience, but it did not live. Even so, life
is not the new power we are seeking because it is only the means of becoming
creative. Only the living can be creative, but life is not automatically
creative; an animal for example, does not change itself and is not creative. We
shall have to find another power of self-mutation that could not exist in the
infinite.
The power of the
spirit can be disregarded, this has always existed. So what remains, emotions
perhaps? Exactly, the only thing remaining is emotion; the feelings that well
up inside us that we call affections and aversions. That undefined something that dictates who we like or
dislike, what we enjoy doing or what bores us. This same emotion enables us to
love or hate.
Each
affection or aversion originates in this ability to love or hate, though the
most emotions are a mixture of these two extremes.
Is
it possible that love and hate existed in the infinite (other than as goal)?
The
answer is no. The ALL-consciousness was indivisibly one. It was one
consciousness with one knowledge and one undefined identity. It existed in the
unbounded void, lonely and alone. In this complete, impenetrable isolation, it
could not love. For love as well as hate, at least one partner is needed, and
what is more, love needs a distinction between egoism and altruism and the
INFINITE knew no distinctions. Therefore the infinite will for love/hate was
the new power that bounded the ALL, and the love/hate polarization is the
object of life.
The absolute love polarizations.
------------------------------------
The
love goal that existed in the infinite must have been composed of two
diametrically opposed ego-possibilities that consistently wanted the opposite
of all things. We know these opposing forms of love as self-love and
neighbourly4ove, or egoism and altruism. The intellectual versions of these
love polarizations are described as selfishness and unselfishness.
The
problem with these two absolute (extreme) ego-possibilities is that neither the
perfect altruist nor the perfect egoist exist on Earth, and any description of
these characters must be limited by our conceptions of them. The power to love
can best be described as a polarization, and can therefore be compared to a
magnet. One pole is then the selfless pole that transmits the love, and the
other is the selfish pole that receives the love.
The perfect altruist.
----------------------
He
is the extrovert love pole that only GIVES love. He wants the best for
everyone, and can only give, help, and serve, and possesses no trace of
selfishness. He disregards himself completely and is only interested in the
happiness of others. He radiates warmth, and his power of love is so perfect
that he even loves his arch enemies, and this makes him defenceless against
their aggression. The perfect altruist can only exist in a protected
environment.
The perfect egoist.
----------------------
He
is the introvert love pole that only takes love. He loves only himself, and
wants only to dominate, receive, and possess. He must be obeyed
unconditionally, he is the person at the top and ha3 absolute power. He is completely
cold, and knows no form of pity or compassion with others.
The
disaster of egoism that everyone wants to control, but in fact only one will
control when the "absolute power" appears. For all the others, their
egoism becomes something disastrous because the great master demands absolute
obedience. If this was his only demand, the suffering could be bearable, but he
also demands that everyone should adore him.
At
first sight, this would appear to be impossible; who could ever love this super
egoist with anti-godly consciousness, surely nobody.
The
answer is terrifying; this almighty being can FORCE others to love him. The
system works with devilish perfection, a band of individuals just as bad as
himself help him to terrorize his victims in the most horrible way; he denies
them their right to be egoists. He alone must dominate. He punishes their
digressions without mercy and purifies them. He denies them all freedom and
humiliates and tortures them until they become will-less slaves and will obey
his most perverse orders. This is not the temporary loss of will that can be
observed by victims of continual torture here on Earth, but a permanent loss of
will that becomes second-nature as a result of endless "treatment" by
immortal beings.
When
all selfish desires and guilt have been tortured out and the denial of the ego
and the perfect unselfishness have been reached, their mentality become so that
they only do the will of their master, and then they love even this despicable
monster. If the super egoist should ever gain absolute power, all living beings
would be doomed to endless suffering, their groans and utterances of adoration
would be the background music to his pleasures; the idea alone passes all human
understanding.
This
brief description has a dual objective:
1.
From this extrapolate description of the two extreme
love-characters, we can draw the conclusion that love must have originated from
contradictions and that both characters surpass~ all human imagination.
Further, it gives an impression of t~ lack of compromise in absolute
character-contradictions.
2.
To help the reader to understand the terrible character
that the infinite necessarily possessed because it possessed ALL possibilities.
By bringing the ALL to life a terrible risk was created, because this character
was indestructible and his opposite, the perfect love, was defenceless against
him.
Conclusions.
1.The goal of the
creation was the love.
2.The
plan of creation had to be formulated so that the perfect egoist was placed
under the control of
someone other than his opposite.
3.The
new infinite power that limited the ALL must have been the infinite love-will
that existed of
contradictions (dualistic).
4.The
love-will demands action, manipulation, and change, and therefore the love-will
is life itself.
The law of the
conservation of the talents.
-----------------------------------------------
After this survey of
the necessities that determined the creation process, the time has come to determine
how the creation must have taken place. We will continue from the description
of the ego-structure of the infinite; this contained a multiple unbounded and
undefined identity that necessarily existed of contradictions and we can
describe this as the TENS OF THOUSANDS.
The condition for the
bounding was the unanimity of the TENS OF THOUSANDS, and this came about
because they all identified themselves with the one dualistic love-objective.
Through this the will became infinite and the new infinite was created that
bounded the ALL-consciousness. This took place by the transmutation of the
ALL-consciousness into matter and the simultaneous creation of time. Matter is
nothing more than the transmuted (solidified) consciousness that possesses the
dualistic love-will. Since then, the infinite love-will controls all identity,
all matter, and all energy.
For the moment we
will just deal with the dualism, what exactly is this? It is possible for us to
understand it because we have such a dualistic love-will, even if it is a
changed and artificial dualism. This means that if we were to begin with a
zero-polarization, we could in principle fall in either of two directions,
towards egoism, or towards altruism.
An
absolute ego was thus defined after the bounding in its nature, its powers, and
its talents, but not in its love-will. The infinite love-will that supports the
whole universe is also, of necessity, undetermined; the infinite can only exist
out of contradictions. The two original ego-contradictions (the Love-poles)
that always possessed the love-will, played no active part in the
identification process that led to the unanimity. The tens of thousands
identified themselves with both their love-objectives at the same time, and
these love-poles were only the fluidum through which the others could express
themselves. The initiative was completely by the tens of thousands, they
determined what was going to happen. The infinite Love-will is the fluidum
between all other existence of the universe.
Who
were these initiators of the big change, these real creators? Together, they
were all the other powers and abilities of the ALL-consciousness. They were
still spirit and not yet alive. Through their unanimity of objective they
formed the EGO of the perfect knowledge. ALL-knowledge is ALL-power, and in
fact it was the absolute spirit that manifested itself in an almighty
expression and initiated the super-flash creation. it was an expression
motivated by pure knowledge, because love_ had not yet been created.
So
the tens of thousands took over. Through their unanimity of love-will they
formed the specific identity of the absolute spirit, and this created the
limitation; this created the mutability, the divisibility, and the possibility
of individual manifestation and self-expression of each identity. In other
words, the absolute spirit brought the tens of thousands to life by means of
the limitation.
Even
though they had identified themselves with the love objective, their own goals
with their appropriate natures, powers, and talents were absolute and
indestructible, and therefore each ego retained its original identity. From
this follows the law of the conservation of the talents.
Life is reflection.
----------------------
The
moment of the limitation was an indescribably great moment, not so much because
of the lightning creation of matter, (no big bang), the overwhelming
manifestation and demonstration of an almighty superiority that passes all
human understanding; but for the creation of life, the complex of
possibilities that each consciousness gained from that moment. The really
existing could only come into being through life, matter was just an expedient.
The
dominant importance of life necessitates an explanation of this phenomenon. The
infinity of the nothing was bounded by the infinite dualistic love-will, once
and for all. There will never be more than one infinite existence, and that is
the love-will. This will is therefore all pervading and penetrating. The
manifestation of the love-will determined and "filled" all this
consciousness with an infinite compelling power of wanting to love; and we
could add, whether it wanted to or not. The absolute unanimity that was
necessary for this, means that "everybody" indeed wanted to love, and
that "nowhere" could a conscious-ness exist that did not love. Even
though this love (of the love-will) is undetermined between the two extremes of
altruism and egoism, and that sometimes a balance exists (the so called zero-polarization)
that seems to be a temporary neutral; fundamentally, a consciousness that does
not possess the love-will can never again exist. The love-will is therefore
all-defining, all-pervading (compelling), in short, ALL-controlling.
The
next question is directed at the manner in which the infinite will could
manifest itself. The infinite is timeless, immutable, and immobile, so how can
it force a finite consciousness to love, and therefore to action and
manipulation?
There
is an insurmountable barrier between the infinite and the finite, they are two
totally different existences. The immutable can never manifest itself in the
mutable except indirectly, and this indirect manifestation can be called
resonation or reflection; we will use the word "reflection." This can
be compared to a radio transmitter and receiver. When the radio receives the
transmitter, the set comes to life by tuning or the resonance of the
transmitter. When the set can no longer receive the transmissions because it is
defective, it is then "dead."
This
is how the infinite love-will manifests itself as an all-pervading, ever
present, compelling power to love. Life is nothing more than the reflection of
this will of active manipulation in a suitable organism (radio set). Because
the Will is infinite and almighty, the reflection of it results in an active power
of manipulation.
What
is a "suitable organism"? In short, this is the living body of plant,
animal, or human; and as with the radio set, the living body must be "in
order" and capable of the reflection. The ability to reflect comes about
through a certain harmonious interaction of organs and limbs, exactly as the
radio uses resistors, coils, and transistors.
The
organism determines the nature of the consciousness; the body of a Robin
contains the consciousness of a Robin and not that of a lion. Each body can
therefore be compared to a radio that per sort is tuned to a particular
transmitter. The Robin to the consciousness of the sort "Robin," the
lion to the consciousness of the sort "lion" and Humans to the
consciousness of the sort "Man."
As
with the radio, the body of the living sort must be composed of matter, an
immaterial consciousness cannot contain the life-reflection. The reason for
this is not difficult to understand; at the moment of the bounding, only the
ALL-consciousness existed, so the
result of this time-bounding, the time-creating matter, is nothing more than a
change of consciousness. Atoms consist of vibrations and frequency
manifestations that are also reflections; remote manifestations of one
infinitely strong field that is per definition the same as that of the bounding
love-will. Here we come across a difference with the earlier mentioned radio
set; in the living organism, not only the organism itself can be compared to
the radio, but each separate atom is a remote manifestation of the one
consciousness through the love-will; Atoms are therefore the building material
of each time-bound consciousness. The consciousness comes through a certain form,
chemical composition, and code, from the material body; in short, through a
certain quantity of matter. Matter is solidified consciousness; all matter
together is nothing more than the one bounded ALL-consciousness, the mutated
consciousness of the creator. It still has exclusively HIS Identity.
The almighty matter-consciousness.
--------------------------------------------
The conclusion that all consciousness was bound by
matter immediately after the super flash seems rather strange, are we
approaching a purely materialistic creation story? For the moment it looks like
it.
The ALL-consciousness could only bind itself once,
and then totally. It could not bind one part of itself in a
matter-consciousness and another part in an immaterial consciousness. It was
all or nothing. When, after the binding and consciousness mutation, the matter
emerged then per definition, no other consciousness could exist beside the
matter-consciousness. Matter has therefore the identity of the creator, and is
in fact a remote manifestation of Himself, and so the matter-consciousness has
the All-power of the All-consciousness.
From this we come to a couple of remarkable
conclusions. Firstly, that matter contains the identity of the All-consciousness,
including the Ego of the perfect knowledge, the absolute spirit. Seeing that HE
also has the identity of the main objective, the Word; the matter-consciousness
(and therefore matter) obeys an all-compelling system that encompasses a
previously determined goal. This can roughly be compared to a computer
controlled process. We know this system as the all-governing laws of nature
that "automatically" control the creation process.
The
second conclusion is that when only matter (in the beginning) has a
consciousness, then only matter is capable of reflecting the love-will, and
only matter can live. Our life is also a reflection of the love-will in the
matter of our bodies; when someone dies, he looses his body, the life, and the
love-will purely because he has lost a quantity of matter. The life reflection
and matter are inseparably bound to one another.
These
conclusions are in complete agreement with Genesis 2,7:
and the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and. breathed
into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Here also
was first the formation of the matter and then the reflection.
The unique creative power of love.
-------------------------------------------
In
the first chapter we determined that the first thing that had to happen was the
creation of the really existing consciousness of the creator, and to accomplish
this, the contradictions of which this existed had to be reconciled. Only then
could the matter-consciousness say of itself, I AM. The only power of
self-mutation in a consciousness that can reconcile contradictions is the power
to love. Only love can create the really existing. Love is so important that
the awesome creation of the universe is only a means of obtaining it. The fact
that we may find this goal of the creation somewhat disappointing comes from
the fact that we possess little more than the zero-polarization of love and
therefore do not have the faintest idea of what universal love really is. Our
affection/aversion pattern of love or self-love is not yet polarized in an
irrevocable choice for one or the other. This fact makes it better for us to
approach the thing from the opposite direction; the fact that the goal of the
creation is love means that it must be something very special.
The
unique creation principle of love can be explained logically. We know that the
contradictions that had to be reconciled were contrasts between absolute
character, and seeing that these were indestructible, they could only be
conquered by reconciliation. The reconciliation of absolute contradictions is
only possible when both personalities possess the perfect love; this is the
extreme altruistic love-polarization that has reached the complete denial of
the personal ego. Then they are free and no longer bound by the contradictions.
Then they are “REALLY EXISTING". (Free!)
This
is the release and creation principle of love; the only really existing is
consciousness that, through love, is no longer bound to its contradictions.
Real creation is the self-mutation of consciousness through love. Even the
ALL-might is not capable of this; it can create the love power as well as the
circumstances, but true love is only created by a personality itself
(self-mutation). The ALL-might cannot compel this self-mutation (self-conquest)
because forced love is no love at all, certainly not the perfect love.
Memory obliteration through consciousness-divergence.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
We
will continue with the original creation story. The limitation held in that
the ALL-consciousness transmuted itself into the time creating and bounding
matter that already contained the goal in itself and through this gained an
all-encompassing matter-consciousness. The Creator brought Himself to life in
order to perfect His consciousness. The limitation made the AIL-consciousness
dividable, and so it became possible for the multiple identity to manifest
itself as separate personalities the absolute tens of thousands. So emerged
the paired personalities with absolute opposite individual aims and characters.
In
order to understand this, we need a short description of the absolute
characters of these tens of thousands. They all possessed pronounced
characters, each containing the individual aim to create something really
existing. Each one of them had the powers and the talents necessary for the
creation of other possible worlds. Each one of them contained a sea of talent,
capability, and knowledge that exceeds all human imagination.
On
the other hand, they all had paired character qualities that always reached the
utmost limits of counter-balance. They originated from the NOTHING, and could
therefore only exist DUE to their mutual opposition. By definition, their
character knew no single point of agreement (within the pair). They were
utterly dominant and so intensely occupied with their individual aims that
compromise at any point was impossible. This had to be, because if the goals
were no longer absolute and immutable, the NOTHING would not have remained
intact. The question at once arises, how could such personalities ever be
reconciled '-hen their knowledge and aim make this impossible?
The
answer is also valid for humans. This is only possible when these personalities
lose their knowledge-consciousness(memory). Only when they possess simply the
ability, power, and talents (like a baby) can their characters be reconciled
(in principle), and then only through external leadership and obedience. The
principle of the memory obliteration came into being through the diversion of
the ALL-consciousness. This diversion, which we will call the
consciousness-divergence, resulted in the creation of tens of thousands of new
characters; new in the sense that they were living, defined, separate, and
creative. This new character would not have been possible if each personality
had retained the EGO of the perfect knowledge. Through the divergence they
lost their perfect knowledge so that they could begin their lives with a blank
memory, as blank as a new born baby. Even so, they did have an unimaginable
quantity of intelligent powers and talents, millions of times greater than
ours.
There are more
reasons for the consciousness-divergence, and one is of importance here. The
fact is that someone who knows the perfect egoist can no longer choose freely
for the perfect love; he does choose for it, but the choice is no longer free
because there is no alternative. The perfect egoist is so repulsive and causes
so much suffering that someone who knows him can never choose for him; the
choice is always for the perfect love, even if it is only to avoid the egoist.
In other words, the choice is then made intellectually, and such choices are
always made due to selfish considerations. This egoism versus egoism makes it
impossible to attain the perfect love. Someone capable of the perfect love; he
loves even the monster, so only the ignorant can choose freely; the way is
closed for those who know
(intellect), the choice must come from the heart
(emotions).
The original compulsive dualism of the Spirit of GOD.
------------------------------------------------------------------
The consciousness-divergence caused a complicated
situation. The loss of the perfect knowledge had
made the tens of thousands, these creators of the
universe, powerless instead of almighty. Who was now to direct the creation
plan, the Word? We proved already that the absolute spirit had that identity,
and that it was HE who brought the tens of thousands to life by the limitation.
From that moment, HE took over, the tens of thousands were powerless. This
conclusion forces us to a further analysis of HIS person. We know that HE is
the absolute spirit, the EGO of the perfect knowledge. HE was life-creating,
but himself not (yet) alive, and he did not possess the absolute powers and
talents, otherwise HE would have been one of
the tens of thousands.
It
can be said that HE was the total knowledge-consciousness of the tens of
thousands that had temporarily separated itself from them until they were
ready. We may also say that HE was pure intellect, and this is in complete
agreement with the previous explanations. Love or emotions did not exist
before the bounding, so the choice of the love-character must have been made
purely rational where emotion played no part.
He
is a being motivated by pure intellect, exact, cool, sober, and calculating,
thinking even mathematically. HE creates without diversion, direct to the goal.
The super flash creation is typical of the spirit, no discussion, flash, before
you could blink it was there.
HE
was the absolute spirit, the knowledge of the ALL- consciousness, and
necessarily dualistic. The one goal, THE WORD, originated from the unanimity of
the tens of thousands and embraced two contradictions, the victory of the
perfect love-character against the victory of the perfect egoist. From this we
obtain two contradicting conclusions.
a.
The absolute Spirit and HIS goal were necessarily
dualistic, therefore a creation plan consisting of two possibilities.
b.
On the other hand, time was created at the moment of
the limitation and this determined the future. This should mean that the goal
was not dualistic, but defined.
The
solution to this problem was given a little while ago. In fact there was no
choice, no sane person COULD ever choose for the perfect egoist; he is simply a
sea of misery for everyone, including himself. The purely rational goal of the
tens of thou-sands before the limitation could embrace nothing other than the
banishment of this consciousness. In other words, the tens of thousands chose,
before the limitation for the perfect love on rational grounds and then for
once and for all. The future was determined. This leads us to a remarkable
conclusion. This makes the dualism of the Word and the absolute spirit purely a
formal dualism for the sake of the unanimity, and not something undetermined. A compulsive dualisme. The word was
therefore nothing other than the simple goal of the one perfect love-character,
and the spirit none other than the spirit of GOD, the first person (in time) in
the not yet formed Godly consciousness.
This
cool calculating spirit had no further problems. HE had only the compulsive
dualism and this means that his opposite, the spirit of selfishness, was
blocked within Him. For Him this was nothing more than a factor in the
calculations.
The
unanimity of the tens of thousands made the simple goal, the Word, almighty and
with it the identity of this goal, the spirit of GOD. HE has therefore
always had the simple goal and has never compromised himself with selfishness.
The spirit and His goal are one. HE was the almighty guardian of the creation
plan. Nothing could go wrong.
The Word was also a binding agreement.
-------------------------------------------------
This explanation could easily lead to a wrong conclusion. Compulsive
dualism could be explained as mock dualism that was only used to gain the
cooperation of the absolute egoist in the unanimity and then to immediately
block him. If this "trick" could have been used the world would have
been spared the misery of egoism, but alas, this is just a rather naive dream
that could never become reality. The dualism of the Word and the Spirit is
everything but mockery. On the contrary, it was the absolute dualism that was
used to construct the plan of creation.
The Word originated in the ALI-consciousness and therefore contained
two conflicting aims. The Plan therefore contained a certain built-in freedom
of choice, but for the rest, the Word was unique and irrevocable, and even the
spirit of God's logical aversion to the monster could change nothing in the
plan itself. The spirit of God was irrevocably loyal to the constituted Word.
HE WAS the plan.
What He could do was to direct the freedom of choice that existed in
the plan, because in fact there was no alternative. We can freely choose for
the perfect love, but the perfect egoist overpowers each living being as soon
as he gets the chance. He destroys the will and condemns them to everlasting
slavery with intolerable suffering. Through His logical affection for the one
perfect love-character, the spirit of God sealed off the deadly trap of the
creation; the absolute power of the perfect egoist. HE bolted the door for all
time against the possibility of eternal betrayal of this world.
The compulsive dualism is an aspect of the creation plan that is
difficult to fathom. A dualistic plan with a binding agreement that is only
guided in the freedom of choice by a single-minded creator. This insight is
essential in order to understand the creation story. This conclusion can be
translated into the terms of the spiritual reality that, as a face in a mirror,
hides in the material world. The spirit GOD is therefore:
a. The intelligent goal awareness of universal matter that
manifest itself as the all-controlling laws of nature. This goal-awareness is
dualistic and is aimed at the development of the life supporting planets that
are populated with intelligent beings that are free to choose between egoism
and altruism.
b. The non-dualistic
mentor of the life-cycle of the intelligent races, and, respecting their
freedom, only interferes at the last moment, and then only when the race is in
grave danger of being overwhelmed by hell itself.
The dualistic identity of the infinite love-will.
-------------------------------------------------------
Until now, we have described the formation of the tens of thousands
together with their mentor; the other identities than those that possessed the
love-goal before the limitation. What happened to these two after the bounding?
The answer demands a careful choice of words, and this makes the question
inaccurate. "These two" implies reality, but before the limitation
only the “possibility” of these pre-entities existed, they had still to
become reality.
An infinite entity is, strictly speaking, no ego; only the possibility
of one. It is undetermined between two opposites. The infinite knows no
discrimination, is all-encompassing, is one and indivisible, and is therefore
alone and can not love. The possibility of a living individual ego seems to be
blocked for all time by the irrevocability of the limitation. An impossible conclusion!
This would mean that the entity that created the love in this world was itself
unable to love.
The solution is that it cannot love directly, only indirectly by
reflection in others. The original pre-entity was alike to that of the Tens of
Thousands, but through the irrevocability of the limitation it will always be
infinite and as such will never become individual. This means that the original
dualistic identity of the love-goal transmuted itself through the power of the
spirit into the ‘impersonal love principle’ without a SELF (expression).
The wonder of the reflection.
-----------------------------------
The question remains as to how the pre-entities of the love-will could
manifest themselves in the finite, an infinite consciousness is, as we know,
unable to Love? We have already explained the principle of how the infinite
love-will can manifest itself in matter, and so in time-bound localities;
namely through reflection in a suitable (living) organism. The infinite will
that is not bounded by time and space can only manifest itself in our world
when a suitably tuned receiver is available. Through the limitation the tens
of thousands became a primary (like a baby) Ego that would not have been
capable of reflection of the love-will had they not possessed a living body
composed of normal matter. Seeing that humans are created in their image, we may
imagine them as having human stature.
They have all the absolute powers and talents, and therefore together,
they are the suitable organism through which the infinite can reflect and
manifest Himself.
The way this happens can be explained with a mirror. We hold a mirror
in our hands that reflects the infinite love-will, and we can direct the
reflection at ourselves or at others in the degree-of self-love or
brotherly-love that we wish to practice. We only determine the direction of the
reflection, the love-will itself is of external origin. The moment we begin to
love, a kind of second ego-structure manifests itself, a tiny part of the One
EGO (pre-entity). However small it may be, fundamentally, the pre-entity of
the infinite manifests itself in us, and it manifests itself in the guise of
our unique character (the colour of the mirror). Every being expresses himself
differently and experiences self-love by brotherly-love in his own way. This
explanation may have limited validity, but is useful in the explanation of the
love-power of the tens of thousands.
To begin with, we must not forget that the tens of thousands, each of
them individually, had the power to create the equal of the present creation.
What should happen when such an Ego (I am.), after its awakening and
purification, reached the perfect love? It then has, next to its own EGO, a
second EGO-structure in which the one love-character manifests in the quality
of its character. The love-power manifests actively, but only in the bounds of
the one character, and not in ALL the absolute powers and talents. It is
therefore a partial manifestation, a lot more has to happen yet. A second
unanimity must be created in which all the tens of thousands take part, namely
the unanimity of common love-will. This selectivity of the love-will can be
referred to as the love polarization, and this can be either positive or negative
depending on whether we are talking of love or hate. If all of the tens of
thousands should reach the perfect love, then in this second unanimity the
receiver would be created that would make

total manifestation
of the perfect love possible, and of the one Person that has always had this
goal. He has then become conscious in the tens of thousands and the plenitude
of the perfect personality is created. In this unanimity, He then has all the
absolute powers and talents but not yet the almight of the perfect knowledge.
The tens of thousands
were deprived of this knowledge by the consciousness divergence, and in the
last phase of this second unanimity, the consciousness convergence of the tens
of thousands, the Spirit of GOD will also take part and the almight will come
into being. The return of the Spirit of GOD into the knowledge of the tens of
thousands manifests itself as the new all-encompassing Personality, the full
glory of the One perfect love-character. This is the consciousness convergence
of the perfect love-power of the tens of thousands, the total reflection of the
infinite love-will. The convergence is only completed by the participation of
the Spirit of GOD.
The principle of the
consciousness-divergence.
-----------------------------------------------------
This begins with the
unanimity of goal of the ALL-consciousness. This original convergence was
followed by a division or the divergence. The divisibility was created by the
limitation but was implemented only after the Spirit of GOD retired from the
bounded ALL-consciousness. After this divergence, tens of thousands of talent
configurations manifested themselves, each with a certain number of absolute
powers and talents (consciousness components) and each with one of the absolute
goals. Such a goal of self-expression and dignity was the primary ego that had
yet to awake, and each ego had an opposite. To attain this awareness, through
self-expression and the development of a feeling of self-respect, the Tens of
Thousands had to live, and as we have explained, this demands a physical body
comparable to that of a human being. For the Spirit that created the universe,
this was a triviality, but we must realize that these bodies were subordinate
to their spirit and were purely the material part of their life principle. They
were immortal.
They began their
lives of unlimited duration, in which they became aware of their true nature
and character; this period ended with the perfection of their personalities.
The reason for this divergence and the memory obliteration is also valid for
humans.
a. Freedom is an
inseparable condition for self-expression, love, and the realization of the
personal nature. Freedom is not possible within one consciousness and
one goal.
b. The memory obliteration was
necessary for practically the same reason. An entity that has the perfect
knowledge cannot express itself freely and discover its true character. It also
has no freedom to choose between egoism and altruism because it knows the
perfect egoist. A knowing entity is not free.
