exist it will occur. <strong>The</strong> Son or Verb, the least incomprehensible aspect of the God nearest<br />
to us and, is single in his gasoline: absolute Life, To be it. When there remains independent<br />
of any substance, he is immutable; when it decides it, it revêt forms, movements and times.<br />
At this point in time the heart of the man can, not to include/understand it, but to smell it. It is<br />
faction of the Father and all the beings hold of him faculty to act; in this state, it revêt triple<br />
forms, with the result that the men adore it under different names, either which it appears in<br />
the purity where he comes out of the centre of the Father, or that he hides under the<br />
dissonances universal concert, in the world of binary, or that he endeavours to take again the<br />
irregular wills of the beings to bring back them to the primitive unit. Each one of these three<br />
forms is spread according to a mode which is clean for him, but whose examination<br />
entrainerait us to trace a whole ontology. Lastly, this Verb and its submultiples change, in<br />
four ways, in their activity: either that they are presented simply to the medium which they<br />
propose of évertuer, or that they are initially surrounded for that their subordinated<br />
auxiliaries, or which they are covered of the substance of the creatures on which they want<br />
to act to be put completely at their range, or finally that they are incarnent in the spirit even of<br />
one or more of these last, in order to carry a more effective help to them. <strong>The</strong>se verbs, the<br />
exchange and its innumerable submultiples, always act, in a given place, in the center of this<br />
place, in the place which offers the temporal image of perpetually active Éternité; they are<br />
always at the present; these are the emanated rays which undergo the action of Time.<br />
Lastly, they complete to separate, always in order to be better used by the individualistic<br />
creatures, while specializing according to specific intellectual modes' to each class of these<br />
last. Thus the universe is the sign of God; the agglomeration of chaos receives the vitalizing<br />
light of the Verb: all the substantial molecules become animated consequently; they make<br />
contact, mix, separate, group, fight, change and are harmonized little by little, according to<br />
whether the Spirit penetrates them and attracts them towards the center eternal which gave<br />
them birth. (1) Lege, judice, tace. (2) GUTMANN, delivers I.<br />
CHAPTER X COSMOLOGY<br />
Fludd teaches that at the beginning two principles existed alone, proceeding of the Father:<br />
Darkness and the Light, the formal idea and plastic. According to the various operation of the<br />
light, the matter became quintuple. <strong>The</strong> worlds spiritual and temporal, subjected to the<br />
action of the original type, became, with the resemblance of this invisible idea, initially<br />
understandable, then expressed little by little by their reciprocal action. Thus was produced<br />
to be it, or the thought to which was allotted creation. This is properly the Son, the second<br />
nobody of the Trinity, which it calls also the Macrocosm. II is divided into areas Empyrée,<br />
Ethérée and Élémentaire; they are inhabited by invisible and innumerable nations; the Light<br />
is spread and died out there in obscure ashes which constitute this third world. <strong>The</strong>re are<br />
three ascending hierarchies of angels: Téraphins, Seraphes and Chérubins; on the other<br />
hand, three populated dark hierarchies of fallen angels. <strong>The</strong> elementary world is the bark, the<br />
residue, ash, sediment of éthéré fire. <strong>The</strong> man is one microcosm. All the bodies contain, like<br />
as many prisons, a piece of éthéré spirit, an interior magnetism, which is their life. Thus all the<br />
minerals have a certain vegetative force, all the plants have a rudimentary sensitivity, all the<br />
animals an almost reasonable instinct. <strong>The</strong> alchemist thus evolves/moves the bodies with<br />
material fire, the magician operates by an invisible fire and the follower dissipates the errors<br />
by means of intellectual fire. Fludd teaches that the light is the agent of the universal life. It is<br />
the cause of all energies and the mediator or, better, the Minister for the divine wills. It is in<br />
the center of the world, consequently behind the sun for our zodiac; it is all the more dynamic<br />
since it is more invisible. This last idea seems borrowed from Dante, at whom her place is<br />
the base of the constitution of the nine circles of his Paradise and the nine circles of his Hell.<br />
We will see further how is explained the Hell. All the writers rosicrucians agree on his<br />
existence but, according to Gutmann, the Purgatory is in the conscience of each one; it is<br />
thus in a subjective way, whose intensity is proportional to perfection according to which we<br />
obey our conscience. <strong>The</strong> existence of the Hell, on the other hand, is objective, and those
