“Discover how divine forces spark all existence” ~Crystal Wind

Exclusive Publication | Crystal Wind News Service |

Before the cycle of the Mahamanvantara—the great cosmic day—there was only Nothingness. Not emptiness in the ordinary sense, but rather the ineffable, boundless No-Thing, known in some traditions as the Eternal Siety. In this primordial state, all that existed was Omeyocan in the Nahuatl tradition, the Absolute: pure, abstract space without form, time, or differentiation.

Within this Absolute dwells the cosmic womb, the oceanic matrix of the Divine Mother Space. This infinite potentiality, waiting in repose, holds within it the possibility of all existence. Creation begins when this womb is fertilized by the Eternal Cosmic Common Father—an act that signals the dawn of manifestation, the first stirring of the universe from its slumber.

The womb of the Divine Mother Space, the Absolute, is the point of origin for all that ever was or will be. It is Siety itself—the original locus from which the entire tapestry of existence is woven.

The Absolute: Its Three Aspects

The Absolute, though seemingly simple, is revealed through three distinct aspects, each representing a stage in the unfolding of existence:

1. Ain (Hebrew: Nothing): The unmanifested Absolute. Here, only the purest wind and darkness exist—a state before any possibility of distinction, the silent ocean from which all arises.
2. Ain Soph (Hebrew: Limitless): The limitless, boundless potential. This is the atomic star—our spiritual origin—that projects its Ray into creation, seeking to know and experience its own happiness. In Christian symbolism, this is the Star of Bethlehem, the guiding light of the Bodhisattva’s path. It is the beginning and end point—where all emerges at the start of the Mahamanvantara and where all returns during the Mahapralaya, the cosmic night.
3. Ain Soph Aur (Hebrew: Limitless Light): The Ray of Creation itself—life, light, the Cosmic Christ. Known by many names across traditions—Quetzalcoatl (Nahuatl), Okidanokh (Gurdjieff), Vishnu (Sanskrit), Kukulkan (Mayan)—it is the force that sacrifices its unity to generate the multiplicity of forms and realms. The Ray undergoes transformation after transformation, condensing into denser and more complex realities, creating opportunities for consciousness to evolve across the many planes of existence.

The Ray of Creation begins in the Absolute and descends, through successive worlds, to the very depths of existence—what some traditions call the Inferno, Avitchi, or Greek Tartarus; the most submerged states of being. The Absolute is thus the site of the first cosmos—the primal order from which all other worlds are born.

The Tree of Life: Macrocosm and Microcosm

The Tree of Life is both a map of the universe (macrocosm) and a map of the human soul (microcosm). Known in Hebrew as Otz Chiim, it illustrates the stages and sacrifices of the Ray of Creation as it manifests in nature. By studying this symbol, we can understand the dynamics of the Cosmic Christ in the world around us and within ourselves.

There are seven major cosmic orders, each governed by its own set of laws. The complexity of these laws increases as the Ray of Creation descends and condenses from the subtlety of Spirit into the density of matter.

The Seven Cosmoses

The Ray of Creation, then, is a journey from the pure unity of the Absolute (Protocosmos) outward into multiplicity. Each cosmos introduces more laws and limitations, moving further from the original, singular law of the Absolute—the Law of Love, the Will of the Father.

As the Ray descends, each region becomes governed by increasingly complex structures:

• The physical plane (Malkuth) is subject to 48 laws.
• The infradimensional zones beneath the Earth carry 96, then 192, and so on, each step more materialistic, more constrained—a progression detailed in the Kabbalistic concept of Klippoth.

The Three Gunas: Origins of Motion

Within the Absolute rest three primordial principles: the Gunas—Sattva (Wisdom), Rajas (Longing), and Tamas (Movement). These are in perfect equilibrium during the Mahapralaya, the Great Cosmic Night. When their balance is disturbed, creation begins: a spin out of the Absolute, initiating the cycle of becoming.

• Sattva: The principle of clarity, balance, and wisdom.
• Rajas: The principle of dynamism, passion, longing.
• Tamas: The principle of inertia, darkness, movement.

It is through the action of these three that the Ray of Creation descends and the first sephirah—Kether—emerges, unfolding into Chokmah and Binah, forming the primordial trinity.

The Law of Three: Triamazicamno

As described by Gurdjieff, the Holy Law of Creation—Triamazicamno—manifests as three primary forces:

1. Holy Affirming (+)
2. Holy Denying (-)
3. Holy Reconciling (=)

This trinity is the Logos: a unity that is also threefold. Creation itself is the interaction of these principles. The Gospel of John echoes this:

“In the beginning was the Word (Kether), and the Word was with God (Chokmah), and the Word was God (Binah).”

In every atom, this trinity recurs: proton (affirming), electron (denying), neutron (reconciling). In human symbolism: the man (affirming), the woman (denying), and the sexual force (reconciling).

Every major tradition recognizes this trinity:

• Kether (Crown): The Father—Brahma, Osiris, Wotan, etc.
• Chokmah (Wisdom): The Son—Vishnu, Quetzalcoatl, Horus, etc.
• Binah (Understanding): The Holy Spirit—Shiva, Isis, Thor, etc.

The Logos is the spiritual Sun—One in Three, but also Two in One (the Divine Androgynous, Ometecuhtli-Omecihuatl). Masculine and feminine principles unite in the act of creation. The Logos is the Multiple Perfect Unity, the force of light and creation, organized throughout the cosmos by seven principal Logoi—archangels or cosmo-creators, each embodying a universal principle.

The Law of Seven: Heptaparaparshinock

Gurdjieff called this the Law of Seven—the principle of organization. The world is structured in sevens: seven notes in an octave, seven colors in the spectrum, seven principal rays. The Logos, as sound, vibration, and light, is always shaped by this law.

The Tree of Life illustrates this: three upper sephiroth (the Triamazicamno) and seven below (the Heptaparaparshinock). The seven cosmo-creators are one with the Logos, and from each emanates countless Monads.

The Monad: The Individual Spirit

From the Greek Monas (unity), the Monad is the individual Spirit—the Intimate, the Being. Each Monad seeks self-realization throughout the regions of the Tree of Life, from Kether to Malkuth.

The Monad consists of three principles:

1. Chesed (Atman): The Inner Being, the kingly aspect, descending into manifestation through the sacrifice of its Cosmic Father—one of the seven archangels.
2. Geburah (Buddhi): The Divine Soul, the feminine vessel, the seat of justice and cosmic wisdom.
3. Tiphereth (Human Soul): The warrior and intermediary, the essence that descends to conquer the lower worlds.

The Buddhata, the “seed” of the soul, is sent into the world so the Monad might master the four elements. These elements are embodied in the four protoplasmic bodies provided by Divine Mother Nature:

• Mind (Netzach): The lunar mental body.
• Emotion (Hod): The lunar astral body.
• Vital Body (Yesod): The etheric double.
• Physical Body (Malkuth): The material vessel.

These four bodies merge into three seeds, since the vital and physical bodies are always joined. These seeds are contained in the creative mercury—the sexual forces of Yesod. To realize the Logos within, these seeds must be transmuted into solar vehicles, the Solar Bodies (the Merkabah).

The Father secretly implants three divine seeds within Yesod—those of the Holy Triamazicamno. Only through inner alchemical work (the Arcanum AZF) do these forces ascend, enabling the Holy Spirit to transform the human being into a true Human.

The Work of Alchemy and the Path of Regeneration

The medieval alchemists called the unrefined state of human nature the “rough ashlar”—the brute stone that must be chiseled into the Philosopher’s Stone. Our bodies, degenerated by the passage of aeons, need regeneration through the inner work of Alchemy. Only by cleansing and perfecting our vehicles can we create the solar bodies required for higher existence.

The Inhabitants of Each Realm

• Tritocosmos (Inferno): The lowest, most complex level—hell, as described by Dante. Demons and egos dwell here. These infradimensional zones exist beneath the Earth, but humanity also manifests these laws psychologically, dragging infernal forces into waking life.
• Physical Plane (Malkuth/Yesod): Four types of inhabitants: minerals, plants, animals, and humanoids. At present, most of us dwell only in the material world.

As we engage the three factors—Alchemical Birth, Mystical Death, Sacrifice for Humanity—we walk the path of initiation. Only after attaining psychological equilibrium and beginning the work of Alchemy can one pass from the Minor to the Major Mysteries.

Awakening the Serpents of Fire

Through Alchemy, the Holy Spirit (the white dove) descends, raising the Serpents of Fire (Kundalini) through each of our bodies—physical, vital, astral, mental, and causal. The serpent ascends, vertebra by vertebra, reflecting the 33 years of Jesus’ life and the 33 degrees of occult Masonry. Each major initiation marks a serpent raised within a new body.

To fully inhabit the higher planes:

• Astral Plane (Hod): One must possess the solar astral body—acquired through the third major mystery.
• Mental Plane (Netzach): The creation of the solar mind (fourth initiation), achieving mastery over the elements.
• Causal Plane (Tiphereth): The creation of the causal body (fifth initiation), incarnating the Human Soul.

The Choice at Tiphereth: Spiral Path or Straight Path

The initiate at Tiphereth faces a fundamental choice:

1. The Spiral Path: A long sojourn in Nirvana—the path of the Nirvani or Pratyeka Buddhas and their disciples, the Sravakas. Those on this path do not incarnate the Christ.
2. The Straight Path: The Bodhisattva path. Here, the initiate sacrifices all personal spiritual attainments to aid suffering humanity, incarnating the Christ and bearing heavy karmic burdens. These are the true Sons (Chokmah) of Man (Tiphereth).

At Tiphereth, the initiate is a Melech (King). The birth of Christ within the Bodhisattva is symbolized by the arrival of three Kings—each representing a stage:

• Black King: Tiphereth reached, but with ego still remaining.
• White King: Ego eliminated; second mountain complete.
• Yellow King: Resurrection; the perfect Christified Master.

The resurrected Yellow King enters Binah, the Third Logos. Completing the last three tasks of Hercules, the initiate traverses the supernal Sephiroth:

• Binah: Nirvanakaya
• Chokmah: Sambhogakaya
• Kether: Dharmakaya

The Dharmakaya, having completed these tasks, enters the mysteries of the Absolute, ascending through the Eons:

• 11th Eon (Ain Soph Aur): Inhabitant of Limitless Light.
• 12th Eon (Ain Soph): Becomes an Ain Soph Paranishpana, one who embodies their Star.
• Highest Attainment: Paramarthasatya—the ultimate realization, inhabiting the luminous void, the No-thingness. In this universe, only Master Aberamentho (Jesus Christ) is said to have reached this level, attaining the Sacred Anklad—perfect, objective reasoning.
