The Parable Of An Union

The Spirit of What Went Before as usual met the Spirit from The South Kingdom. Her name was What Is To Follow.
The Wise Old Spirit from the North exchanged news of his kingdom and said his subjects were all of one voice and they had asked a question.
“What is That?”
What Is To Follow?” he replied.
Having met once in every thousand years they agreed to marry and set up their dominion over all in perfect harmony.
It was possible since the Spirit from North was Wisdom and the other, Power.
Out of their union came Time. Eons later their household became as numerous as stars of the night sky.One night one Hour went up to Time and asked: “Am I happy?” Ancient of the Days asked why such a question. The unhappy hour answered thus,” The hours that went before didn’t say what were to follow.”
Time explained that that was unnecessary since the hour like every other sibling came of a perfect union.
“Look about you and also look within. You shall know of what stock you come from.”

After The Fall

Adam had a shock of his life to know he was naked. “It is something that I ate, I am sure.” He said and he quickly went over to his ‘helpmeet’ and to his amazement she was also naked!
“ Must you embarrass me?” he blurted out.
He bawled his head off telling Eve to be modest. She didn’t think she was immodest. He knew she was because he was always right since God created him first. “ I have the preeminence in all things.”
At that moment he was busy thinking up designing his wardrobe. Adam waxed eloquent at the whole array of dresses he could now design for himself. If he were first in all things his dress must show him to advantage. He quickly sketched a headpiece and robes complete with breastplate. Eve saw him so much lost in details and thought her man was fantastic. “ What imagination and what singleness of purpose!” She loved him all the more despite his odd habit of ‘’I-told-you-so’. When he was done she had one question: “ You made a breastplate and divided into 12 sections. “Why twelve?”
“ I could explain but it may not make sense to you.” Said he.
Of course he had conceived it all in his mind and sketched the dress down to its minutest detail.
Alas, he never got around to use.
Why? God thought Adam was better dressed in a lambskin that was simpler. All he needed if he ever was in want of a change of skins was a sheep. There were plenty of livestock around. He however left the final decision to Adam and Eve.
Eve insisted, “ Don’t be woollyheaded Adam. The dress you designed is too complex and you would need skills that do not exist.”
Adam was shocked and before he could snub her she said, “ Look around. Angels are clothed with fire and God Himself wraps about him with clouds.”
Adam had to agree, ‘If God could be dressed so simple so could I.’
But he muttered saying, “ I bet my design was faultless.”
Tailpiece: In the desert of Sinai God explained to Moses the dress he had in mind for the office of the High Priest. Uncannily the design was exactly the same as the one Adam had earlier conceived. So Adam had taken a pattern from the Mind of God. If he were the Son of God it was quiet natural. This is what Imagination would mean. More on this topic in my next post.

W12 D7- In Silence We Connect

Premise #4
“If we cannot exactly say if the space is expanding or may at some point reverse into a Big Crunch, First Cause must explain its motions in whichever direction. Every material form the earth or man, weird life forms in other planetary systems must be equally dependent on the selfsame Cause.”

Every part of our universe is like a wheel connected to one another by so many wheels small and large in a machine some of which are so minute that may escape detection to any casual enquiry. Time in nano seconds we may never experience nor shall we measure a cosmic year which takes our sun to make one complete revolution about the centre of the Galaxy. It runs about 220 million years. Our year linked to the Galactic year would show how exceedingly narrow range do we take in matters of cosmos; Yet our brief span of life is linked to it. We may leave the Sun to its galactic year if we may do much with one year. Our heartbeats in its regularity must measure however imperfectly the seemingly infinite pacings of celestial events. How we make sense of Oneness is somewhat similar.
Our heartbeats in its rhythm provide harmony to the melodic line of cosmos. Our mind and body as one, come in time with the music of the spheres. The rests, which we provide is the key. Part of Time.
‘ And the rest is silence,’ as the Bard of Avon would say.
