Foundations

Before there was Any Thing, there was the All, the Source, the Monad.  It was eternal, but timeless.  Time is relative, and there was No Thing to relate to.  It was Formless and because by encompassing all Forms it had None.  It was Changeless, because Change can only be measured against something, and there was No Thing else to measure against.  It simply Was, and Is, and Will Be.

Suddenly something separated from the All, and Reality began.  But what emerged was two somethings.  Call it Light and Dark, Energy and Matter, Theos and Thea.  Reality requires both.  Time began, because now there was something to Relate to.  Form began to be defined.  But is was when these two Concepts turned to each other and embraced that Life began.
