The Aethyrs Of Existence

When there is nothing in existence that is external to the primordial, then this expansion of space, or, consciousness, is understood to occur within. This is what is meant by the expansion of the 'something' into the 'nothing'.

And although this may be referred as 'illusion', it is only illusion of perception; on the contrary, it is quite real, to paraphrase Otis if I may "It's as real as I want it to be."

The Nevid is the point. It is the illusion from which worlds arise. Every thing is from nothing, there was never any thing.

The Nevid - Spheres Within Spheres

The Tree Of Life model is most often presented in such a way so as to provide certain information although it speaks very little about its' exact and actual cosmic evolution.

In order to relay the actual cosmic evolution of this Tree Of Life a new diagram must be rendered. It is sometimes said that every sphere of the tree is contained in every other sphere, and while this is true there are very few graphical representations that elaborate on this concept.

The two most common models of the tree are the Lurianic(Isaac Luria), and the Gra(perfected tree) models with the former being the most common. There is a third however that is a direct representation of its' universal evolution, that of spheres within spheres.

The onion metaphor works well to relay this concept. The primordial singularity(1) would be the core of the onion and the successive sephiroth become its' layers. The 10th emanation(creation of Earth), would then be the final layer, surface, or the skin of the onion.

All attributes of each individual sphere then would be contained in every other sphere although the manner of such would be dependent upon which sphere is currently evolving as they would evolve in succession according to their number.

The Nevid - Spheres Within Spheres Continued

Kether at the first emanation which is a manifestation of the limitless light from nothing; a convergence of this energy to a singular zero dimensional point of infinite density(d = m/v).

The second and third emanations which completes the supernal triad is a result of the divine masculine and feminine aspects(respectively) being divided from the initial unity.

The second sphere of development emanates and makes fertile thy mother - the third emanation which initiates the aethereal expansion. This expansion is reflected on a lower plane following conception with respect to the inferior feminine aspect. Nine spheres; nine months(or Moons). Ten is a reflection of one...

As above, so below; as within, so without.

Spheres Within Spheres Continued - The Abyss

So the Tree Of Life model being elaborated on here is that of concentric spheres with Kether(Kay-ter) being the innermost sphere, or more precisely, primordial point, and Malkuth(Mal-koot) being the outermost.

Every sphere that is currently undergoing its' evolution is a superset of its' predecessors, ergo, spheres within spheres, concentrically.

Every sphere, or, sephirah(Seh-fear-uh) is representative of a phase of cosmic evolution, or layer of time that is measured in eons, more or less. The first three stages are often referred as the supernal triad.

Immediately following this divine trinity commences with the formation of Daath(Da-ut; knowledge) which is an empty emanation - it has no number.

The aethereal expansion occurring at luminal/super luminal speeds creating an immense void separating the supernal triad from the remaining seven sephiroth(Seh-fear-ote), otherwise known as...

Spheres Within Spheres - Yetzirah - The Hexagram

This title has covered two of the four Kabbalistic worlds thus far, that of Atziluth(as-sigh-loot) and Briah(Bur-eye-ah). These are the divine and archangelic realms.

The third world is Yetzirah, and it is the world of angels, or, intermediaries. It is composed of seven spheres. There are six outer spheres with the Sun being at the center of this arrangement.

The first upright triangle of the hexagram is a rendering of Daath, Netzach, and Hod. With the inverted portion being that of Chesed(Gedulah), Geburah, and Yesod.

The top point of the hexagram is positioned at the Abyss, while the top left and right points give the side pillars their name. Their names are Severity and Mercy, respectively.

The bottom point of the hexagram is positioned at the ninth emanation...

The Moon.

Dimensions of Existence

All dimensions, and initially we only consider the primary four, are a direct consequence of consciousness and time - one in the same. It is presumed that the enumeration of all dimensions was a rather brief, although consecutive event.

So first, the four primary dimensions should be re-ordered. Consciousness and time would be the first(1), and then followed by the three spatial dimensions. The complete order of emergence within an eternal, circular, or non-linear context, i.e. recurring. Would be : nothing(0) -> acausal(0 - 1) -> consciousness/time(1) -> width, height, and depth(2, 3, and 4).

And of course there are other dimensions as well, but they would not be extensions of the spatial, nor would they be anything along the lines of the Ku Ku calabi-yau manifold microdimensions. They would be other non-trivial facets of existence that exhibit measurement and/or depth, such as feeling, sound, heat, energy, et al perhaps. Could all be considered dimensions of a sort.


Edit : The "ku Ku" reference is poking fun on another forum

Re : Life Giving Breath of Isis

The never ending cycle of creation and destruction conforms to a rhythm much akin to breathing. It is this rhythm that is also one of the Hermetic principles. In the microcosm this act is periodic, but is at the same time also sporadic - ergo the rhythmic aspect. In the macrocosm this is the divine song of creation - its' accompanying melody and of course, harmony.

In the beginning Isis exhaled the breath of creation into existence, the aethereal medium, the propagating aether; the air of the universe - without which nothing else could be possible. Every breath of this divine goddess is measured in eons, every outward flow is the beginning of a new universe, and every inward flow, or return, is its' end.

The ebb and flow of all that is, was, and ever will be, and also that which is not. Glory to the queen of the universe, she that breathes life into that which is dead.
