| BkI:10.III.2 | The physical universe had not yet been born, nor had the consciousness that allows fear to be felt and perceived. At this level of creation, a level of pure abstraction, of pure thought, fear is neutral. It simply followed from the thought of separation. It was God thinking of being separated from God. Since God is unlimited, he would not put a limit on the thoughts of a particle of light. The soul is free within the pure potentiality of God. There was no reason to limit thought. God did not prevent the idea of fear, still abstract, from being created by that little part that separated from the pure soul, just as you cannot prevent your mind from conceiving ideas. The mind is unlimited. |
