	The opportunity for man to transcend his current level of achievement originates in the transcendent nature of his Creator. Even the Supreme Monad, the Almighty One, is continually transcending himself according to the Law of Cycles; and if it were not so, transcendence would not exist as an opportunity for the creation.

	From out the white-fire core of energy that is God—that is Life, that is Spirit—came Matter, the ultimate effect of the ultimate cause. And Matter became the playground of Mother. The Father-Mother God is both the force and the forcefield, repulsion and attraction, of Creator and creation, positive and negative, plus and minus, Spirit and Matter—the One, the Whole, the All, yet individed for the evolution of the sons and daughters of God.

	God the One polarizes and manifests as duality in order to create a backdrop for the expansion of his own Self-awareness. God, in the desire to become more of God, created the karma of duality.

	God’s karma is the karma of perfection—perfection being the flow of harmony from Spirit to Matter and from Matter to Spirit. God’s karma, fulfilling the law of his energy in motion, can be understood as the movement of his will in an endless succession of primary forces producing secondary forces and tertiary forces and so on infinitum, from the center of his Being to the circumference and from the circumference to the center. God’s karma is the synchronization of such cosmic forces interplaying through cosmic forcefields, extending to the bounds of his habitation in Spirit and in Matter.

	Individual life is the doorway to the Infinite. Thus the admonishment was written on the ancient temple walls: “Man, know thyself!”—which is to say, “Man, know thy Self as God!” To know the Real Self is to know God—God, not as the tyrant that so many dread, that some have forsaken and others have proclaimed as dead, but God as the ''G''eometry ''o''f ''D''ivinity (G-O-D), the Geometry of your Divinity.

	Like modern scientists, Jewish mystics of the thirteenth century said that in the beginning there was nothing—nothing, that is, except the “divine nothingness,” the hidden, transcendent God. The God of Genesis who “created the heaven and the earth” was not even manifest. The term the mystics used to describe God before creation was ''[[Ein Sof]]''. ''Ein Sof'' means “without end,” or “the Infinite.” ''Ein Sof'' is the First Cause. It is ultimate reality—unmanifest, incomprehensible and indescribable.

	From the edge of the vacuum, ''Ein Sof'' issued a ray of light that launched all of creation. The sequence of events is complicated but, in essence, Ein Sof's light manifested ten divine emanations. Each emanation was to be preserved in a special vessel. Some of these vessels, however, were unable to hold that light and consequently shattered. As a result sparks of divine light, along with shards of the vessels, scattered, giving birth to the material world.
