The sequence of life

 

All that exists must have a beginning.

The beginning of life begins in a desire.

A desire that you should be born, a desire that you should become proud of yourself.

Many things that God made are made in order to give us examples, so we can understand a higher reality from a lower reality – gaining access to above from below.

Hence the reason, unlike every other mammal etc. we are born with many years of dependency, is because, the idea of a parental relationship is vital to understanding the Divine relationship.

Just as parents create their children out of love, similarly, but infinitely more so does God (for God doesn’t have a fuzzy idea, “I want a child” but a concrete knowledge of who will be born.)

Now obviously, as love is the prime motivator, my desire is not only for the physical life of my child, but primarily for the spirit, the moral, the virtuous.

For only in the latter is there meaning in the former.

Now for life to be meaningful there had to be two universes, “See I have given you the good and evil, life and death.”

For if there is but one option, no one could feel good for choosing it.
