Creation by the three Logoi
This is a temporary placeholder - page to be developed
With reference to schema 1 below: The three Logoi have three outpourings
- in the 1st outpouring or outstreaming, the Third Logos through sacrifice of its higher consciousness streamed out its own substance to created the five planes below the nirvana plane .. giving Form
- With Substance already existing .. in the 2nd outpouring, the Second Logos gave it Life so it could be forming (? check)
- in the 3th outpouring, the First Logos gave it conscious awareness: form and substance exist so it is about observing and generating and emanating images
Schema 2 depicts the spiritual entities involved in creation of cosmic systems like our solar system. Our solar system is described as everything upto the spirit world, with the spiritual hierarchies involved in a great dynamic interaction as explained in the Golden chain. The spirits described here are above that, operate from nirvana and buddhi planes and orchestrate the changes at the highest level including transitions between the stages of consciousness (CoC), conditions of life (CoL) and conditions of form (CoF).
It is also from these higher planes, buddhi and nirvana, that the White Lodge circle of Boddhisatvas and Buddha's operate and guide the evolution of Mankind, see the Occult atom.
