Nothing

Non-existence.

Complete dissolution.


Everything resting in pralaya


Through meditation receiving an impression - through listening ideas are pressed upon us.


Then, from the freedom of the unmanifest, comes the first vibration—or spanda.

Not from nothing, but from limitless potential.

Light and substance awaken into movement.

A living web of vibration unfolds.

And Within the web remains the memory

 all is One. 


Ideas are pressed upon the web

Held by Dhyani-Chohan, the Lords of initiation.

Great contemplative beings whose wisdom becomes creation itself.

They behold the divine pattern and help weave it into being.


With the assistance of fohat

Running the errands of the Dhyani-Chohans

Fohat - Dynamic energy

Fohat  -Vital uniting power,

 binds spirit and matter,

divine thought becomes a living universe.

Conscious

Intelligent geometry

Dancing in perpetual motion

Giving rise to worlds



The great creative hierarchies emerge:


Seraphim - spirits of love

Cherubim- spirits of harmony

thrones - spirits of will

dominions- wisdom

virtues - motion

excusiai - form

archai - time

archangels - guides of peoples

angels - individual companions


And humanity as the 10th hierarchy


If the hierarchies are the artists of creation the Lipikas are the scribes


Lipikas


Recorders of karma or  vast cosmic administrators begin writing tablets of astral light keeping track of everything.

Symbolic beings of intelligence  that make sure nothing is lost and that everything is woven into the web of life.

Every thought, every action, every life is written into the fabric of the cosmos.


The heavens become ordered through sacred intelligences:


The Planetary Bodies

Saturn - memory origin

Jupiter - wisdom future

Mars - courage transformation force

Sun - Christ impulse Life

Venus- harmony devotion

Mercury - movement communication

Moon - growth reflection


The Elemental Beings 

Earth - Gnomes

Water = Undines

Air - Sylphs

Fire - Salamanders


The Hierarchies of Nature.

Group souls of animal species

Nature Devas - overseeing larger landscapes such as forests or lakes

Spirits who work with the seasons


The One Sound differentiates into seven primordial centres

seven archetypes reflected below as


Rays

  blue /Red /Yellow /Green /Violet /White/ Black


Principles

Will / Love / Thought / Harmony /Knowing / Devotion / Manifestation


  Chakras

Root / Sacral / Solar-plexus / Heart / Throat / Third eye / Crown


Seven primordial elements underlie creation,

though we ordinarily perceive only four….


Earth / Air/  Fire /  Water

we Move ever upwards to perceive more

Ether /Astral /spirit


One could liken this synthesis of ideas and impressions to the ocean 


Pralaya is the ocean at perfect rest.

Spanda is the first ripple.

Fohat is the movement of the wave through the water.

The sevenfold differentiation is the wave splitting into patterns.

The hierarchies are the intelligences that inhabit and shape those patterns.

The cosmos is the visible surf.

Karma is the memory carried by every ripple.

And beneath every wave… it is still one ocean.


what begins as divine attention and intention unfolds into worlds,beings and

the human soul, which can awaken to its spiritual origins

creation is a continuation

that invites our participation


I gently invite you to listen to the meditation, and find your own interpretations through what is impressed upon you.
