Another great post, and impressively thought provoking. I think you did a good job with those drawings, and even though they're 2D. I need to re-read it again after my brain stops smoking ;-) Very dense and deep, all the stuff I enjoy to give the brain a good workout. Thanks!

Very thought provoking! To actually calm the thoughts enough to realize the “bad” had to come before the “good” in order to even create the “good”. Even though it ultimately started with (seemingly) the “good” I AM.

I wonder, is this why we all must be a Persephone, to have to go through the “dark night of the soul”, to reach the rock bottom, before we can realize the way up and out and the emergence into light?

On the other side: the All That Is, being the first (in plain english) had to have created the chaos so that “it” could create the Destroyer to claim it. To enable the Choice to happen according to the Free Will theory.

K, need more coffee for this - brain exploding. 🤓🤯😂

Obviously your brain is exploding in a GOOD way, eh? ;) SO happy to have stoked the neurons this morning!

YES, yes and yes. :)

Lol the whole chicken and egg thing on a macroscopic scale. This could be a debate issue that is never fully resolved. Maybe it all comes down to one’s belief. 🤷‍♀️

Definitely a "chicken and egg" thing for sure, and one that I've grappled with for awhile. I've finally concluded, however, that I prefer the version that I postulated above, if for no other reason than this:

If Chaos (Destroyer) existed, in some form or another, BEFORE the Word was spoken, then "it" technically could be construed as having "Squatting Rights" on the Universe. My understanding is that the "chaos came first theory" actually IS the traditional (dare I say "patriarchal") viewpoint for both theology and cosmology.

What I propose here is much simpler, and removes the duality from the equation -- you have "I AM," and then you have the stuff that "I AM" made up along the way in order to make things increasingly complex and interesting to drive evolution.

Obviously, there have been "oopsies," but I like to think that this viewpoint is a lot more rosy than the concept that the so-called Abyss is even a thing that *could* exist.
