To start, Cleric, I would like to ask you about your take on this. In your post here you gave an overview of the creation myth in an esoteric language, but it was not clear to me from your phrase below if the the creative activity of the Spirit is meta-cognitive and intelligently pre-meditated or, as per BK's views, "instinctive" and non-metacognitive/non-pre-meditated.
Knowing that you are coming form Christian background, I think I know the answer, but I would be interested to know the reasoning behind your position and any critique of BK's views on that. Myself I'm still sitting on a fence and undecisive in this respect, after oscillating a few times back-and-forth between Christianity and Buddhism.The Universal Soul gives the materials, the space for consciousness, the arena. The Universal Spirit is the Creator, producing through His activity the forms within the Cosmic Womb.
