“Eternity exists, and all things in Eternity, Independent of Creation, which was an act of mercy.” And then what is that creation? All things exist. Humanity, the animal world, the plant world – everything exists in Eternity, and Eternity is in your own wonderful human imagination. That’s Eternity! All things exist now in the human imagination. Well now, what is the act of creation that I would bury myself in that which exists and return? That I could “die” – actually die – and return? For a seed must fall into the ground and die before it is made alive. If it does not fall into the ground and “die,” it remains alone; but if it falls and dies, it brings forth much. So I “died,” I fell into my own wonderful world that is it exists, and the world is “dead” – completely dead. And I could not pretend. I had to actually become this world of the “dead.” So I became it, and then I passed through all the horrors of the world. For what purpose? To remember the glory that I saw before, that I gave up to come into this world.
Eternity, where all things exist, is within the human imagination. Creation is an act of divine mercy where God (the Eternal Being) voluntarily 'dies' by burying Himself in the finite world of man, experiencing its horrors, in order to expand and eventually remember His pre-existent glory.
