THE SCRIPTURAL CREATION

           
The written account of creation should not be taken in an earthly sense. The scriptural narrative also does not refer to this earth. The creation of earth was simply the natural consequence of the further development of the first creation. It is almost incredible how scriptural scholars could have jumped to such an illogical conclusion and incomplete  assumption as that God out of His own perfection could without any transition have immediately created the gross matter earth.

              Do you know every religion has a creation story to tell? But observe carefully this stories, you will noticed they are all saying the same thing. The stories are only painting  pictures of creation. I want you to know that earth or the material world is not the first creation, to get closer to the truth of what actually happened, it is not really necessary to change the words of the scripture. On the contrary, the description of the history of creation represent the truth much more clearly than all the false and incomplete assumptions! It is only the erroneous interpretations which have caused a misunderstanding on the part of so many people. these people quiet rightly sensed the mistakes that is made by persistently placing the paradise referred to in the scripture on this gross materal world, earth, which is so far removed from the Divine. It surely cannot be so little known that the bible is primarily a spiritual book! It gives clarification about spiritual events. Thus, there could be no question of a paradise on earth!

               However, to suppose that paradise was situated here on the gross material earth must breed doubters! The thought of a "driving out" from the earthly paradise, is so unhealthy, as to be almost grotesque. The less perfect a thing is, the further removed it is from perfection. Hence the spiritual beings who were created out of perfection cannot be the human beings on earth, but must have their place closer this perfection and therefore represent the most ideal examples for humanity! They are the eternal spiritual beings who never descend into the world  of matters and therefore never become human beings. They are endowed with magnificent beauties radiates ideal figures who attracts like magnets and at the same time, exercise a strengthening influence on all the abilities of the human spirit-germs and later on the spirits which have attain to consciousness.

                Another statement with wrong conception is "After His Image". I want you to know that a creature can never, ever be like its Creator i.e God. This statement "After His image" means the first created spirit beings can only be after His image, not after Himself, not like God Himself i.e only after that in which He shows Himself, because on pure Divinity Himself is unsubstantiate.

                  When it is said : "In the sweat of thy brow thou shalt eat thy bread", this is metaphorically quite correct. In other words, the turmoil of experiencing makes it necessary for it to defend itself and struggle against the onrushing influences of the lower sphere into which it penetrates as a stranger. I know you will find it difficult to grasp for now, do not worry, with time i will explain in full details, by then your spirit has become matured enough to grasp. This expulsion or ejection or being driven out from paradise is in no wise a punishment, but becomes an absolutely natural and automatic necessity when the spirit-germ is nearing a certain stage of maturing as a result of the urge to develop self-consciousness. It is the birth from the sphere of unconscious spiritual substantiality into the sphere of Animistic substantiality and later into the world of Matter for the purpose of developing. It is progress, not retrogression!

                     The fall of man, which occurred only later and from which hereditary sin developed, was a happening all on its own, to be explained in full details later. The description of the story of creation that man felt the desire to "cover his nakedness" after the conception of good and evil awakened within him, which was the beginning of self -consciousness. From the increasing urge to become conscious, ejection follows automatically, hence its journey began, as the spirit-germ steps out of the Realm of spiritual substantiality, it stands naked" as such in a lower different and denser sorrounding. One can also say "uncovered". It is then that the human spirit feels not only the urge but the absolute necessity to cover itself protectingly with the essence and nature of the substance sorrounding it; it wrap itself in a sort of cloak and take on first, the animistic animistic covering, then the ethereal body and finally also the gross material body.

                      The statement "Let there be light" signifies the beginning Creation but will be so difficult for you to grasp right now because there are lots of things you need to know or else alot of gap will be left behind and you will be confused at the end. So you have to be patient as i unfold before you wealth of knowledge.
