Month, Day: 166, Honour, Splendour (Majesty)
We're now to the last of the Motivationals. As we head to the Ascendants, with the New Year looming (167), we will use the reality of the Manifestation as a major theme for discussion. This has to do with more than audacity. It's core.
Lets start with a couple of quotes from the SAQ, mainly to carry on Questions.
As mentioned before, the first part covers the influence of the Prophets in the evolution of humanity. Allowing this notion is a big step. The third part considers attributes of the Manifestations of God. The fourth part looks at man's details.
Now, given an acceptance of the first part as a basis, then the details, as they are covered in the subsequent parts, follow and ought to have relevance to true science.
SAQ #37: But for this Essence of the essences, this Truth of truths, this Mystery of mysteries, there are reflections, auroras, appearances and resplendencies in the world of existence. The dawning-place of these splendors, the place of these reflections, and the appearance of these manifestations are the Holy Dawning-places, the Universal Realities and the Divine Beings, Who are the true mirrors of the sanctified Essence of God. All the perfections, the bounties, the splendors which come from God are visible and evident in the Reality of the Holy Manifestations, like the sun which is resplendent in a clear polished mirror with all its perfections and bounties.
SAQ #51: All beings, whether large or small, were created perfect and complete from the first, but their perfections appear in them by degrees. The organization of God is one; the evolution of existence is one; the divine system is one.
It is obvious that some type of 'supernatural' appendage (it can be minimal - our task, to determine this) is required for science to take the next step. Otherwise, it mainly revolves around the pit of materialism and hollows our the human core. The manner in which this will play out is unknown, is feared, but is necessary. Let's take some time to develop the proper view, or at least define what is needed, from First Principles.
One of those is this.
SAQ #78: The tent of existence is upheld upon the pillar of justice and not upon forgiveness. The continuance of mankind depends upon justice and not upon forgiveness.
So, work is a key issue, with all sorts of implications.
