First Creation begins with First Fire, the fire of illuminated awareness within the black void of space. From that First Fire comes Spirit Water, the vapors. As the First Fire grows in its awareness, it fuses in a marriage with ecstatic aspects of itself and the void. These married aspects condense eventually after they merge together. They soothe and activate one another, forming something new - a nectar, an elixir, a vapor, the Spirit Water. First Fire and Spirit Water then refine and interact and we have Lightning Wisdom and Rainbow Essence. These are the elements of Paradise and they are eventually deposited as the growing Earth. As all of these elements coalesce, they bubble and form Earth matter. From Earth matter, water and fire and wood can grow - the sprouting shaft, and the Tree of Life on Earth. The ecstasy of the Tree of Life produces a sigh, the breath is the air. The air becomes the Breath of Life for all beings on the Earth level. And from that Breath of Life, caressed by light and by the warmth of fire, cooled by the nectar of water and refined by the elements of Rainbow Essence, the Spirit that is evolving now in each of us begins to grow.
This occurs if all circulates in a holistic way, as it is intended to do. Whenever any element becomes self-important and tries to consume more power for itself to expand its territory, you will have imbalance, suffering, conflict, struggle, delusion, attachment, and death. The evolving Spirit, if grown properly in the garden of life, can go on beyond the heavy elements of Earth in a refined body of Rainbow Essence, and it will inhabit the realms of the Fires of Illumination, the Waters of Spirit, and the Lightning of Wisdom, and will cross the Bridge of Rainbow Essence. It will inhabit the top portion of the Tree of Life where all the joy and freedom reside. This is pure new Earth.
In one's life one must continually cook oneself like this succulent feast we are preparing here [preparing deer met for dinner]. One must be fragrant, aromatic - simply delicious. Each time a dish of our heavy elements is prepared, we call all the forces for whom we wish to offer ourselves and partake of the feast. We offer our feast with compassion. All those at the table consume our dish and are nourished by it, since it is food for them. In the process of offering ourselves, we are strengthened and we release any aspect of our being that is clinging to the old heavy portions that are being consumed. Thus we transmute our attachments into an incorruptible generosity and gratitude. This yields us an inexhaustible source of free energy with which we continue to sustain the subtle essential refinement.
After the heavy elements are eaten away, only a more refined essence remains, which is indigestible as a source of fuel. Only very evolved beings can truly understand such mysteries and offerings. Most beings are far too stingy, corruptible, childish, fearful, and exhaustible. However, the Universe itself empowers these offerings, because the purpose of all this is to continue to evolve, to soar, not to stay forever and cling. That is impossible anyway. All of this is utterly impermanent. Even the Earth herself, the Sun, the Moon, the Universe - all form is impermanent and it does not like that truth until it becomes very wise, sublime, and evolved.
