"BIG BECOMING"
by Adam Blatner
Posted September 20, 2013
The so-called "big bang" as the event that commenced this 3-D
universe reflects a time distortion in human-centered thinking. In
the cosmos most known to human thinking, the visible universe at
first unfolded at a rate that to us seemed inconceivably fast, and
it involved many components. Then it evolved over a time recently
estimated to be around 13.7 billion years ago. However, the
process has unfolded on psychic levels too. For example, though
cosmic evolution has seemed to move from almost infinitely fast to
almost infinitely slow, this range of time is from another
perspective-dimension all illusory.
Is it a big blossoming, a big blooey, what? A "bang" certainly is
a misnomer.
As for the four cornered figures---the "quadernity." There are
levels to the unfoldment that humanity as yet doesn’t get. Some of
your mystic alchemists got it, but it was translated a little too
literally as the interactions of hot and cold, dry and wet, the
four humors, the four whatevers, the tendency of humanity to
imagine in intersecting dualities—a mandala that seems to be in
four directions, what Carl Jung called a “quadernity.” It’s all
true and yet humanity gets only a glimpse, a shadow of a higher
truth.
One of the reasons mandalas expand in many directions is that this
is what “happening” at multiple levels of existence looks like
from a human perspective.
As it "becomes," evolves, emerges, stars are born and die. There
is also a radiation of innumerable smaller mandalform sparks.
Again, mandalas are how they seem to you from your 3D+Time eyes.
But that’ll do if you understand that you’re seeing it from your
perspective and also in a highly diagrammatic form.
