The Ascension of the Holy Men

 Day 104

The Ascension of the Holy Men

The ten holy men, steadfast in their aspiration to become creators, persisted in contemplation even as their physical forms decayed and were consumed by wild beasts. Through epochs and cataclysms, they remained resolute in their intention, awaiting the dawn of a new creation.

Becoming the Creators

With unwavering determination, these men transitioned into creators as the new epoch unfolded. Their universes, born from their focused intent, bore witness to their profound transformation. The sun reveals its role as a participant in the universes crafted by these holy men.

The Creator's Inquiry

Seeking understanding, the Creator questions the sun about the necessity of action in the process of creation. With detachment from desires and motives, the Creator wonders about the purpose of engaging in creation.

Response of the Sun

The sun elucidates that the Creator, devoid of desires, engages in creation effortlessly, akin to the sun's reflection in water or the natural rhythm of day and night. Encouraging the Creator to embrace creation as a natural expression, the sun emphasizes the futility of abandoning this inherent function.

The Immutable Nature of Creation

The sun further explains that the universe, conceived in the Creator's mind, is indestructible, contrasting with material creations subject to decay. Individual identity is rooted in the truth perceived within the mind, transcending transient material forms.
