Seven Rivers Of Creation
(The Seven Seals)

The Seven Rivers Of Creation law is a subset tale which The Old Ones used to teach their students about how Creation began. It was taught that as the residents of The Grand Maya first began their journey into The Grand Maya... into the Illusion of Matter, they dreamed a dream of separation from the whole of existence. This dream-thought became The GreatForce which caused creation, as we know it, to come into being. This dream-thought was:

Upon the face of purity, upon the face of non-darkness, upon the face of all things, even upon the six points of power, my mind shall conceive. With the power of the lights of the illumination of illusion, peace shall walk my heart and seven rivers shall flow from my mind; and, issued forth from each river shall come all things high and low, each unto its own level, after its own kind.

When we try to understand the higher aspects of Creation, in general, we must not think in a serial manner (things happening one step at a time); instead, we must think in a fabric-like manner (things happen on different levels, all at the same time). Thinking in a fabric-like manner is like the thought that while everything did not happen all at once, it really did. The seeming difference between creations happening all at the same time while happening one step at a time can be easily understood if we remember that time is, itself, the clue to understanding. Still, the process is not unlike the process of a crystal lattice which is being created as water is freezing.

With this thinking process in mind, let us tell the ancient tale of Creation as the tale was told to our forefathers, to their forefathers, and to the forefathers before them. It is a tale that was told long before the men of the times ventured out into unknown Space, where they leaped from one planet to another until, finally, they came to land upon the planet we now call Earth.

In the beginning, there was nothing but the pure state of beingness (called Deluge) which was surrounded by a sanguine sea of possibilities. It was pure power at peace with itself and at peace with all its surroundings--even the sanguine sea of possibilities was in a state of rest.

Then, no one on this level really knows how or why, some of the beings (if the word being can be used) that resided within Deluge began thinking instead of just being. In that self-same moment, Arkashea was born. Again, in that self-same moment, from within the sanguine sea of possibilities which surrounded Deluge, there came a stirring as if in response to the thoughts coming from the thinking beings which resided within Deluge. As the thinking beings continued to think, the stirrings grew in magnitude and in intensity. The 1st River (Fig. #1), the River of Thoughts, came into being.

For each being, the first thought became the great Creator of their destiny; the seed pattern for creation, itself, came into being.

Contained within this first thought, contained within this seed was a subset of laws which became Royal unto all levels. If we did think in terms of step by step creation (but we know we shouldn't), we'd find the first thought begat the need for Change, itself. By fulfilling the first thought (The Creation of the one is, in itself, the implication of the creation of the other), a new creation came into being--the need for Change. However, not all was right. Absolute power corrupts, absolutely. Thus, Royal limits to the first law of Change, itself, came into being (Wherever change exists, there must be some type of limiting-factor to limit the nature of the change). Hence, the first of the dual nature of law, the law of Change, came into being.

As the recursive nature of Creation came into being, there came, also, the creation of the Royal Laws (called Recursive Dialusion) which extended its control over all levels of creation. With the coming of recursiveness came the first law of Recursive Dialusion (All which exists, exists recursively; as such, that which came first shall be last and that which came last will be first).

By the first of the Royal laws of Recursive Dialusion, the first great dual-natured law of Change recursively took control of its creator--the first thought. That which was once pure now mirrored itself; and then there were two--the original and its lesser duplicate. Still, the Duality of Change had not fulfilled itself when it was referenced to its Creator, the first thought.

The first of the great laws of creation (The creation of the one is, in itself, the implication of the creation of the other) was yet unfulfilled, because there existed no finality to the creations; there were no boundaries between that which came first and that which came second. There could not be a mirror image of the first without boundaries between the first and its image; without boundaries each would overlap, thus making them the same original Unity... there cannot be differences within sameness without boundaries.

With the first of the great laws of creation yet unfulfilled, the Affinity-Factor (the force of Karma which draws the one to the other) came into being. Thus, the second law of Recursive Dialusion came into being (The force evoked to create a phenomenon is that self-same force which maintains the phenomenon within its creation, unto forever).

Still, although that which existed first--the concept of Unity--was changed into the concept of Duality, the first great law yet remained unfulfilled. There existed no definitive instruction for that which existed first to change into that which would be created next; Unity could not become Duality in and of itself. Thus, the law of Repeating Patterns, the third law of Recursive Dialusion came into being (All which is created shall be dual in its nature, but triune in its effects).

Still, although that which came first had now changed into that which came second, Unity had, indeed, become Duality; the first great law of creation was yet unfulfilled. Unity had, indeed, become Dual in its nature, but it had not yet fulfilled the third law of Recursive Dialusion.

As the recursiveness of the Affinity-Factor again fulfilled itself, that which was Dual in its nature became Triune in its effects. Finally, the first of the great laws of creation (The creation of the one is, in itself, the implication of the creation of the other), the first manifestation of Creation (That which would become seed pattern for all of creation), the first level of Power (seed for The GreatForce) was fulfilled. And, so, the end of the beginning had also fulfilled itself.

With the first of the great laws of creation fulfilled, the law of Repeating Patterns, the third law of Recursive Dialusion again called forth the Affinity-Factor into being. Like the endless spiraling coils of a huge snake, Recursive Dialusion demanded that the process begin again upon a lower level. Thus, came The Second River, (Fig. #2) The River of Law, the second level of Power, and the second manifestation of Creation came into being.

By the nature of Arkashea--the first independent thought--there became levels in Illusion, and, so too, there became unique levels unto the Fabric of Creation. Within each unique level, the unit of creation, because of the need for Duality, became the Continuum. All threads of the Fabric became, in their own right, a Continuum which became, itself, divided; a Continuum Of Diversity, Dual in its nature, Triune in its effects.

As the tale unwinds, let us speak of a wondrous thing--The Royal DoubleGate. If we remember, early on, we did not speak of a barrier between the pure state called Deluge and the great Sea Of Possibilities which surrounded it, but we did speak of such a barrier being placed between that which came first and that which came second. This is a very special barrier. What makes it special is that under certain circumstances, if all is right, this very special barrier becomes a barrier no more. It becomes a very special Gate whose magic door swings both ways.

There is magic on both sides of the door to make sure that entrances or exits are made by law and not by whim. However, because this magic door is on so high a level, the magic which guards the entrance which leads down into the next lower level of creation is not an entity--it is a force which we call Isis. Likewise, because this magic door is on so high a level, the magic which guards the exit which leads up to the next higher level of creation is not an entity-- it is a force which we call Anubis.

Now, as we continue the tale, remember that we follow the coils of the snake of creation downward. Here it is important that we remember that between each spiral there lies a Royal DoubleGate which guards both the entrance which leads downward to a lower level of creation, and the exit which leads upward to a higher level of creation. We must also remember that it is the same force, the same magic which is at work at these Royal DoubleGates. This magic was placed there by the law which states: The Force Which Is Evoked To Create A Phenomenon Is The Self-Same Force Which Maintains The Phenomenon Within Its Creation, Unto Forever. Now, let us continue the tale.

Thus, the first creation, Unity, had come into being. Within the same-self moment of the creation of Unity (1), its opposite state, Duality (2), also came into being. What was most wondrous was that with Duality came the unit of creation--the Continuum (The Continuum is that aspect of law which deals with the concept of opposites). In our case, because this is the first manifestation of the concept of opposites, the two parts of Duality, which just happen to be the two opposite ends of the Continuum of Duality, are The Presence and The Absence.

Well, we might become worried at this point. If we did get worried, it would be because we really didn't know which of the two ends of the Continuum of Duality came first. Should it be The Presence, or should it be the Absence?

In the process of thinking this problem out, we might come to think that it has to be The Presence. After all, if our only choice is either The Absence (which really means that there was nothing there to begin with), or The Presence (which really means that there was something there to begin with), we'd have to choose The Presence, right? After all, one just cannot build a something out of a nothing... or can one?

Well, actually, at this point along the continuum of creation, it does not matter which of the two--The Presence or The Absence--is the Unity factor... as each will result in the creation of the other. The Whole is the same regardless if the Unity factor begins with The Presence or with The Absence.

In any case, regardless of which we choose, let us call it a special name--The Chi.

Now, if we looked at the picture-diagram of the 2nd River, The River Of Law, beside seeing that the duality on this level of creation was The Absence and The Presence, we would also discover that this duality became a Triunity called Conductivity, Receptivity, and Frequency.

The first of the trio, Conductivity, is, in itself, a Royal Steering Current. Actually, it is the concept of a catalyst. It conducts or causes a change in something, but remains unaffected not only by the process, it is also unaffected by the very change which it, itself, causes. Any time there is a state of change, something is causing that change; that is, something must be acting upon that which already exists. It does not matter if that something is acting upon itself, or if it is acting upon something else. It is still active in its nature. We call this active Royal concept of Conductivity The He.

The second of the trio, Receptivity, is also a Royal Steering Current. It is the concept of being receptive. It accepts and nourishes by allowing itself to be acted upon. Any time there is change, there is something that is being changed. Exactly what is causing the change is unimportant at this time. By the nature of what is happening, that which is being changed is passive in its nature. It is allowing itself to be changed. We call this passive Royal concept of Receptivity The She.

The third of the trio, Frequency, is also a Royal Steering Current. It is the concept of Diversity Within Limits. Actually, it is that which gives power to Change, itself. It is the concept of Repeating Patterns. Any time there is a change which brings about the creation of something new, the entire process must be repeated upon the new creation. The creation of that which was new implies, in the same-self moment, the creation of its opposite. None can tell when this process will stop. One thing is for sure, however. From the first Chi, the Chi of Unity (1), came the second Chi, the Chi of Duality (2)--The Absence and The Presence. And, from the second Chi, the Chi of Duality, came the third Chi, the Chi of Triunity (3)--Conductivity, Receptivity, and Frequency. Now, with the creation of the third Chi of the second manifestation of Creation, the second River, The River of Law, is fulfilled.

It was now time for a new beginning. Once more we travel through a special magic door which will lead us down to next lower level of Creation--The Third River, as seen in Fig. #3.

We are now ready to discover The Third River, The River of Creation (Fig. #3). That level of experience is known by another name. Some call it the third Manifestation of creation. Some folks even call it the third manifestation of Power, but we will call it the third level of Power. Regardless of what we call it, the only thing that is important is that we realize that we are still descending into The Grand Maya. We are descending into the grave which has many life-forms trapped. It even has Man trapped there.

On this level, the third River, we shall follow the path of The Presence. On this level of Creation, The Chi became the Unity of the Presence. Its magic reached far back into The Sanguine Sea Of Possibilities. Its magic reached so far back, it even reached The Sea Of Uncreated Futures.

It was there that Man received his power of individuality. It was there that each individual received his power to have Freewill. And, it is there that each individual stores (if stores is a word that can be used) his Soul, the record of all that he has ever done, all that he has ever thought, all that he has ever desired, and all that he has ever felt.

When the first change took place, two new magic Forces passed through the Royal DoubleGate. They were the two forces which made up the opposite ends of the Continuum of Duality of that level of creation. Again, if we look at the picture-diagram of the third River, The River Of Creation, we will discover that the two ends of the Continuum Of Duality became PrimodialForce (which is passive in its nature), and The GreatForce (which is active in its nature).

Again, if we look at the diagram of Fig. #3, we will see that Triunity became The He, The She, and The Changing Mobility of Recursive Dialusion. Furthermore, if we will look even more closely at the picture-diagram, we will discover that both PrimodialForce and GreatForce have the same Triunity. They both have an active nature, a passive nature, and a very special subset of laws that control which will manifest under which conditions. This is a very special thing. This, indeed, shows that within the unity of a single level (be that level a plane of existence, or a single individual) duality still exists. This means that each end of every continuum possesses a small part of the other end of the continuum of which it is a part. This means that every good, in some way, possesses or does a little bad. Conversely, every bad, in some way, possesses or does a little good. And, within this duality, there is still a triune nature. Remember this. We will discover this special situation again, on a much lower level, within each individual life-form of the species Man.

On The Fourth River, The River of Matter (Fig. #4), the fourth manifestation of creation, according to the law of Repeating Patterns, The Chi represents Matter. Duality became Matter which was animated (possessed of both LifeForce and MindForce), and Matter which was not animated (possessed of LifeForce but not MindForce). Triunity then became The LifeForce, The MindForce, and The Pairings.

If we look closely at the picture-diagram, we will discover that this is the first time during the descent that MindForce is introduced. Up to this point there was only law involved in the creation of all things. However, because there was only law, the first law of creation (The creation of the one is, in itself, the implication of the creation of the other) was unfulfilled. To fulfill the requirements of the first law of creation required that creation created a force which was more than just law--Mind. But, it didn't stop there. With the creation of Mind came independent thoughts on all levels which possessed Mind--Individuality came into being. Then, with individuality came the need for something that was more than just thoughts--Emotions came into being. With the pairing of thoughts and emotions, still a new creation came into being--The Claim To Uniqueness. The trap was almost complete.

On The Fifth River, The River of Life (Fig. #5), the fifth manifestation of creation, the level wherein the fates created the continuum of all life-forms according to Repeating Patterns, The Chi became Animated Matter (matter which was possessed of both LifeForce and MindForce). Duality became The Plant Kingdom and The Animal Kingdom. Triunity became The Sub-species: Male (that which gives the seed of life), The Sub-species: Female (that which receives the seed of life), The Bi-sexual (that which is self- contained, in that it has both within itself), and The Neuter (that which has neither the Male nor the Female).

If we look closely at the 5th River, often called the River of Diversity (the diversity of life, itself), we can see there is not too much of a difference between the two ends of the continuum in question. On the Duality level, while one end is the Plant Kingdom and the other end is the Animal Kingdom, both have LifeForce; both have MindForce (however limited); and both have mobility (again, however limited). This similarity continues into the Triunity factor, as well; both have the male and the female, both have the Neuter, and both have a form of Bi-sexual life.

On The Sixth River, The River of Mind (Fig. #6), the sixth manifestation of creation, The Chi became the life-form we call The Animal Kingdom. Duality became Birth by Eggs and Live Births. Triunity became The Male, The Female, and The Bi-Sexual.

Again, as we follow the path of creation downward, the path which leads us to the creation of the TwinSpecies: Human... often called Man, we come upon the branch whereby we must choose between being born live or being born in an egg--obviously, we follow the live births.

If we look closely at this Sixth River of creation, we see that there is little difference between the patterns of the opposite ends of the continuum; both have the male, both have the female, and both have the potential for being Bi-sexual. If we look at the patterns as we descend, we find that as we go deeper into The Grand Maya, the more things change, the more they remain the same... we find that the similarities become more important than the differences between the points of the continuum in question.

Finally, we arrive at The Seventh River, The River of Man (Fig. #7).

On the seventh manifestation of creation, The Chi became the Unity of Live Births (All life-forms which are born alive are included-- the species Man is but one of them). Duality became The Male and The Female. Triunity became Heterosexual, Bi-Sexual, and Homosexual. (Could it be that this is where the seven days of creation came from?)

The Descent Of Man

And it came to pass that we, a spiritual being, departed from the first manifestation of power--the pure state of Deluge, departed from the second manifestation of power--PrimedialForce, to journey through the Great Barrier unto the grave of the cocoon called The Grand Maya. But lo, as we approach, we are changed by the barrier as we pass.

As we enter Orthodontiks we find, unlike the world of Deluge, the Pure state from which we came, Illusions of Reality draw us onward. Ignorant wherefore of what we do, we anoint our new Ka, which is solid.

Emotions do not exist. Thoughts are the deeds which bind us. Behavior, known in the World of Illusion, does not exist. Interaction is a special type of thinking which is experienced as Reality's equal. The thought is the Karmic tie which condemns us to experience the lower levels of the Fabric of Creation. As we think, so have we begun our journey, unto forever, into the illusion of our thoughts.

Drawn by the call of Reality, we must leave Orthodontiks via the trap of our thoughts. We find ourselves in a state of separation. We find ourselves separated from ourselves, from our true nature, and from the Godhead of Creation (see Fig. #8).

We rue this feeling of separation which will serve as the main force haunting our existence unto forever. A deep sadness overtakes us. It forces us to seek that part of our past which is forever lost. Not until we return from The Grand Grand Maya, from Orthodontiks, to Deluge, our beloved Pure State, shall we, again, be made whole. Therein came Arkashea--The first Thought... the first Trade-off. For the sake of uniqueness we have lost the Godhood which is our inheritance. Through great bemusement and befuddlement, we now find ourselves in The Grand Maya... an illusion of our own making.

Trapped, deep within our thoughts of a Reality which is still foreign to us, we perceive naught but the diversity of Repeating Patterns. Uniqueness has, indeed, claimed its prize. Too late, much too late, we recognize the effects of our inheritance--The God-head of Creation. The laws upon which we beheld so lovingly now govern our very nature. Descend, must we, into the very hell of our thoughts.

We find ourselves unable to separate ourselves, and our thought's energy, from our first Ka. Gone is most of our former freedom. Gone is most of our Godlike powers. Our new Ka limits our mobility. All we have left is our thoughts and our ability to create a new Ka within which to experience still lower levels of the Fabric... and, so we do.

As we approach the lesser barrier to the next multi-layered dream state of the cocoon of The Grand Maya, we feel, again, the change within us. Befuddlement is great. We descend into our new creation... only to find we left more of ourselves behind. The sadness within us grows much stronger. To make matters worse, loneliness invades our new Ka. The pain of our loneliness and the sadness of our separation only serve as unrelenting harpies. Still, the harpies drive us into still deeper levels of the new creation called The illusion of reality.

As we look about, we perceive ourselves caught in a creation of diversity. We find ourselves among myriad dimensions of uncreated futures, none of which recognizes our right to exist. As we try to return to the familiarity of Orthodontiks, we discover an impassable barrier. Again, our thoughts and their claim to uniqueness have had their effects. There is only one way to go, still deeper into the Illusion.

Again, we create the necessary Ka within which to experience this new level of grossness. Again, we feel the change deep within us as we leave more of ourselves behind. Again, the pain of separation grows. To make matters worse, we find we can no longer remember our existence in Orthodontiks... much less Deluge, our beloved Pure state. Our loneliness forces us to know there is more to our past than what we can remember with our limited consciousness. Our now heavy Ka seems to have an inner knowledge that we cannot control--we can not quite remember... nor can we quite forget. We have, indeed, gone into oblivion.

We find ourselves caught within a very dark state of existence. We find it teeming with diverse energies of seeming unlimited potentials. But, we are no longer alone. We share our existence with Matter as gross as is our unholy Ka. All about us is myriad collections of nondarkness. We discover, as is our own thoughts, there are divisions in this nondarkness. The divisions are divided along myriad veins, all of which are more gross. Each is a dimension unto itself (see fig. #9).

We create still another unholy Ka, within which to experience the new nondarkness. Lo, we discover our new Ka, by far, more of a trap than anything we have ever experienced. Our first thought, that of a lovely playground, has turned into a circus of horror. For the first time, we find our pain of loneliness, our pain of separation, have a physical dimension to them--we feel them with our body. The pain, the pain...is great.

Our first thought within this new Ka forces us to experience the first of many to come emotions; even our body feels the pain of the loneliness of our separation. How we weep for the want to be freed from our desires. How we long to, again, feel the peace of contentment. We long to fill the empty place which seems, even now, to grow deep inside this new physical Ka. Too late-- Only now do we realize, when we left Deluge we left love behind. Try as we might, we cannot find it in this new creation. The only thing we have is the need to ease the pain. Perhaps our next creation will. Again, we create.

Deep within the nondarkness, our new Ka experiences clusters, specks of Matter which glow with the fires of physical creation. We discover small specks of brightness circling larger specks, who, themselves, circle still larger specks of brightness. The cluster of brightness swirls and pulsates about its center. As it does, it creates winds of Gravity which bring forth still a new creation--The Continuum of Time. The waves of Gravity seem to control all which exists within this Universe--even our new Ka. Not only do we no longer have control over our emotions, our fate now places us under the control of the laws of our Illusion. Still, we must create... to escape.

Caught by the swirling motion of this Universe, we have limited power to choose our future. We find ourselves under the dominion of a new continuum--the Time/Space Continuum. Gone are our memories of Deluge. Gone are our memories of Orthodontiks. Still, ever present is the awareness of the emptiness which never stops growing within us. We discover we can no longer remember what we learned on the upper levels; we become easily bemused. To make matters still worse, we discover, no matter what we do, we can no longer free ourselves from the effects of our deeds. They are like roots which take hold into the world of the physical. As much as we dislike it, our roots drag us still deeper into the lower levels of the Fabric of Creation. Still, we create. What else can we do?

Now, our process of creation becomes fraught with confusion. Our new Ka limits us still further. We find ourselves in a cluster of brightness consisting of Galaxies. We discover that as the Universe spun about its center, so too, the cluster of Galaxies spin about theirs. Try as we might, we cannot avoid that huge place of nondarkness we call a Black Hole. Somewhere in our illusion comes the memory that the Nondarkness is the door which led us into this Star System. With hope in our heart, we approach the door of escape which our thoughts promise. But alas, it is not to be. We discover a barrier which will not let us pass. Our inner voice echoes the Law of Dialusion--The force that is evoked to create a phenomenon is the same force that maintains the phenomenon unto forever. As we approach the door to freedom, we experience a new creation--Fear. It drives us away from our path to freedom. It drives us still deeper into our Illusion. The DoubleGate forces us to create yet another Ka to experience the still more gross Matter found within a single Galaxy.

Within this new Ka we discover the laws of our new level of Creation. Alas, as we descend deeper into the Grave, we discover more and more we are either bemused or confused. Still, deep within the center of our being is the longing to belong. As an expression of our great pain, we have learned to cry-- and, so we cry loud and we cry often. Our deeds become many. Our thoughts become more and more clouded with a pain that constantly mocks our claim to uniqueness. We are, indeed, alone.

While our Galactic Ka allows us free travel within this chosen Galaxy, it refuses us the experience of its parts--the Solar Systems. To prevent ourselves from becoming eternally trapped, we must, again, create. Finally, a glimpse of understanding comes too late. We find this new Ka even more imperfect than all the others. Now, we learn the meaning of physical pain-- and, so we cry louder. But, there is none to share our pain (see Fig. #10).

With tears in our eyes, with the physical pain of the loneliness of separation, with the memory of greatness all but gone, we discover ourselves to be Man. And, we discover we, as Man, need a place to rest our feet. But, the limitations of Man refuse us our desires. We know not the nature of our next Ka. We know only that our level of bemusement, our pain of loneliness, and our lust after escape from this un-ending pain will force us to throw caution to the winds. We wish for others of our kind with whom we can commune.

Behold, with the very thought comes the division. Divided are we unto two parts. Seed are we for our species. Even now the great law governs. We are The Chi for our species. Our divided self becomes The Duality, wherefore we are divided into The Male and The Female of our species. Oh the pain grows much! Each half of us draws toward the other. Each half also draws toward itself! Behold! We are all things. Our whole is the Unity. Our divided whole is Duality, wherein dwells the male of us and the female of us. The male of us seeks the male of us even as it also seeks the female of us. The female of us seeks the female of us even as it also seeks the male of us. The pain grows, much! We are the Chi as I am, that I am, in all Unity. Yet, we are Dual in nature, as there are two parts to us--The Male, which seeks to give life; The Female, which seeks to accept life within herself. Still, we are triune in all effects--As part seeks itself, so it seeks the other. The law is fulfilled.

As Man, we find ourself upon an unimportant speck of dirt... floating in a sea of creation. And, because of our uncontrolled thoughts, we find ourselves trapped within the most imperfect Ka ever created. Now, as Man, we know the cycles of life and death (see Fig. #11).

To our shame, we find that others have followed. So, we weep. In the cold, cold night of loneliness, we weep. And, so we weep-- We are now King over our people. And Kings must do as Kings must do. We must first seek to guide the pilgrim. Failing all else, we must govern... we must govern our selves. Then, and only then will we hope to return from whence we came.

It is written that One Day, I shall see myself for what I am...

It is said that on that day, I shall know the limits wherefore I am...

It is written that One Day, I shall know that which I have done...

It is said that on that day, I shall weep for the mask from which I hide...

It is written that One Day, I shall believe the truths from my inner self.

It is said that on that day, my eyes shall open wide in disbelief...

It is written that One Day, I shall turn away from folly's ties...

It is said, that on that day, I shall be reborn unto the nine levels of truth.

It is written that One Day, I shall see myself for what I am...

It is said, that on that day, I shall cry loud, long, and often.
