New Concept - II - The Divided Light

II

THE DIVIDED LIGHT


In the Light of The Creator's Mind is DESIRE to dramatize His ONE IDEA by dividing its one unconditioned, unchanging unity of balance and rest into pairs of oppositely-conditioned units, which must forever interchange with each other to seek balance and rest.

DESIRE then multiplies those pairs of units into an infinity of eternal repetitions to give formed bodies to The Creator's imaginings. All formed bodies are created "In His Image."

Through the expression of DESIRE in Light, this universal drama of CAUSE and EFFECT is created as the product of Mind-knowing divided by Mind-thinking.

CAUSE is eternally at rest in the balanced unity of the undivided Light. CAUSE IS ONE.

EFFECT is eternally in motion to seek balance and rest in the centering equilibrium of the two opposed lights of this divided universe, which it finds only to lose. EFFECT IS TWO.

The Light of CAUSE, divided into the two opposed lights of EFFECT, is the one sole occupation of Mind which we call THINKING.

Mind thinking sets divided idea into two-way opposed motion to produce the effect of simulating idea by giving form to it.

Formed bodies are but pressure-conditioned motion, however. They are not the IDEA which they simulate. [Walter Russell, A New Concept of the Universe, pages 13-14]
