CHAPTER 22 THE GENERAL COSMOLOGICAL PRINCIPLE

202. The objective and goal of the creation of Heaven and Earth, Man at the end of the tunnel of time, is how God designed the general architecture of the Heavens and the specific architecture of the Earth, considering the millions of years that the Birth and Growth of the Tree of Life required to bear fruit. Because He could and knew how, God created a Plan of relationship between the elements of the Biosphere, with two main thermocooling centers at the extremes of the Ecosphere, and specific centers distributed across the continents, which are the mountain ranges of perpetual snow. How atmospheric and oceanic currents are recycled from the polar centers and maintain the biospheric temperature is a work of geophysical engineering as marvelous as it is surprising, involving the morphology of the lithosphere itself. Because it had to keep the ecospheric thermometer stable, it had to endow the Ecosphere with a perpetual rotation angle. And because it could and knew how, it raised the Autonomous Ecospheric Substrate, thanks to which, as I have already said, the angle of incidence of solar energy would remain constant for the millions of years that the Tree of Life would need to bear fruit. But there was still more, because the Solar System is not isolated from the rest of Creation, and being in motion and subject to the general laws of the Universe, the interrelation had and could cause interferences that would ruin the work of so many millions of years. Because it could and knew how, God did not hesitate to deploy its intelligence and endow the Solar System with a remote control mechanism for its sidereal velocity, which I have called Applied Astrophysical Systemology. And yet all this was not enough.

203. The local Universe, the Milky Way, moves within a Cosmos in which movement is the most characteristic visible feature. There may be qualitative and quantitative differences between galaxies, but they all share a common denominator: they move. To say they move is to say they interact, multiply, divide, add up, and subtract. Creation is constant, overwhelming, marvelous, and astonishing movement. Moreover, the Cosmos portrayed in 20th-century theories and the Hubble Cosmos are as different from each other as a seal is from a swallow. In the real one, the Hubble Cosmos, there is no homogeneous movement, no standard distances, no patterns. The realm of galaxies is pure diversity, pure harmony in the discovery of the unknown, ecstasy in the apotheosis of the infinite capacity of cosmic matter to reproduce itself in space and entertain without ever becoming boring. Genius displayed to the four winds, beauty that manifests itself joyfully and does not demand a final cry. Star development in clusters of billions of stars that neither destroy nor collapse, like lighthouses in the vast oceans. Galaxies that, like underwater creatures, travel on cosmic currents and, like eagles, spread their wings and are carried by intergalactic winds. Where is the Cosmos of the 20th Century?

204. In fact, the celestial structure we observe in our immediate surroundings presents very typical characteristics. Ultimately, the whole is resolved into a constellational architecture that defends the astrophysical heart, from whose center its special optical configuration is determined. For, as we can observe it with our telescopic eyes, the universe is traversed by powerful gravitational currents displacing large masses of clouds from one place to another, the origin of nebulae. So, when God reveals to us that He “created the stars of the firmament to separate the light from the darkness,” He tells us much about how the Earth's passage through one of those nebular streams would affect the Solar System. And He reveals to us the nature of the constellation shields.

205. The Biblical text is crystal clear. “God created the stars to separate the light from the darkness,” it says. On the First Day, we are told that God created the light and separated it from the darkness. On this Fourth Day of the First Week of the History of Humankind, it says that, having separated the light from the darkness, God created the heavens to separate the light from the darkness. The text could not be more direct. That the resulting conclusions are fascinating and, because they are so wonderful, completely opposed to the mindset of the 20th century means nothing. Modern man's opinion on the nature of the universe doesn't count. It wasn't with modern man in mind that God wrote His Revelation to Moses. Those who were disregarded by God cannot be disregarded by their children. The conclusions they reached are irrelevant to this book, and their opinions are irrelevant to the author. So let's move on.

206. The structure of the Universe of Revelation and its resolution in the mirror of Reality give us the following by equivalence. Namely: The Universe of Genesis is the Milky Way. And it is about the Creation of this Milky Way: “God created the Heavens to separate the Earth from the realm of the Galaxies.” This physical necessity is inferred from the study of the Heavens, and from whose phenomena we see that on the other side of the Heavens powerful currents and winds traverse the Cosmos. There are the astronomical images to speak with the power of a thousand words per photograph. Their beauty, however, should not obscure the clarity of our intelligence when interpreting the events that are their cause. The physical function fulfilled by the star clusters that surround us is that of the net that traps everything that the current carries and cuts off the passage of intergalactic clouds into the interior of the constellation system around which they are distributed. Let us now establish, on scientific grounds, the divine declaration that the Heavens were created to raise a protective wall between the Earth and the world of galaxies.

207. The description, therefore, of the General Cosmological Space that we have inherited paints a picture of a Galaxy-Universe that moves and interacts with other bodies through general laws. This perfectly aligns with the infinite expansion of Matter suggested by the Idea of ​​Creation. The need to understand why God created the Heavens to protect the Earth from General Cosmic Motion implies answering the question of the relationship between God and this infinite Multiplication of Matter. And the answer to this question leads us directly to that other question that the genius of the 20th century sought to answer with his cosmological theory, namely: Before the beginning, what? This question, in turn, leads us directly to ask what part God played in that Principle of principles and what He was before this General Cosmological Principle. This matter compels us to delve into Theology, but always maintaining the scientific approach that has thus far served as the language of understanding between Creation and ourselves.

208. Before Creation there was Uncreation, and before the Creator there was God. God declares Himself Eternal, and nothing needs to be said about His Age. But He also confesses: “Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me.” So, knowing that God is Eternal, and therefore the Formation He speaks of could not touch His Nature, it follows that this Formation referred to His Intelligence, which is the part of Being that grows and develops over time. This logical conclusion places the Knowledge of the Science of Creation on one side and the Being that possessed all the Natural Attributes of God on the other. When these two things united and became one, then God became the Creator, and Reality His Creation.

209. I have touched upon when and how this cosmological revolution took place in the History of Jesus. There I delved into the topic of the History of Uncreation and explored its key moments. I believe I said that the Creator came into being because He was in God. More or less what I meant was that if Intelligence without Power is insufficient to transform Reality, neither is Power without Intelligence capable of that transformation. And I affirmed there that Power resided in God and Intelligence in the Uncreative Force, the Origin of all things. I recall placing Eternity and Infinity before, but not against, God. And recounting that uncreated relationship by speaking of the Infancy of the Divine Being. And this Infancy from the perspective of the revolution that led God to become the Origin of all new things. In relation to this process, He spoke of Himself, saying that He was formed. This process of Formation can only be understood as carried out by Infinity and Eternity as uncreated realities that had in God the guiding principle of all that moved and came into being. And once the Creator was formed into God, the revolution that would make God, Infinity, and Eternity one and the same was completed. Roughly speaking.

210. From this ontological revolution that integrated God, Space, Time, and Matter arises the concept of the General Cosmological Principle, that is, the event that marked a Before and an After. Thinking of this, the genius of the 20th century spoke of a Big Bang, and I, in Divine History, posited a natural creative activity in which God transformed Reality starting from the very structure of Reality. That is to say, there was the destruction of a previous cosmos and its transformation into a new one, which, like everything that begins, originated from an event or General Cosmological Principle. This General Cosmological Principle irreversibly marked the Before and After. The question is how God brought forth this Principle, of which the beginning of our Universe, in particular, is a fragment of the historical sequence that set that Event in motion.

211. The answer to this question requires discussing the fundamental laws of the Multiplication of Cosmic Matter that have been operating since Eternity. However, unlike the Uncreated Cosmos, which involved Infinity in this Multiplication, since Movement originates in God, this Movement was revolutionized and carried out by transformative fields of matter into cosmic energy, and this cosmic energy into astrophysical matter. To understand this phenomenon, let us turn to the quantum nature of atomic matter.

212. Both at the level of laboratory observation and in particle accelerators, the reproduction of matter originates in the increase of kinetic energy, which transforms the particle's relationship with the field in which it moves. From the very birth of quantum physics, it was observed that the growth of mass requires an increase in kinetic energy, a relationship that Einstein attempted to capture in his famous energy equation. But if, in the atom in its natural environment, the particle responds to an increase in its speed by transforming the difference into mass, and it does the same in an accelerator, if we remove the speed limit from the equation and proceed to extract the particle from its environment, giving it the characteristics of cosmic energy in free flight in a space without electromagnetic reference: that particle will continue to transform the difference in speed into mass. Assuming we add an accumulation of trajectories to infinity, the leap from quantum matter to astrophysics is already there. This was the uncreated natural process.

213. God revolutionized this process by concentrating the trajectory in a field where mathematical time curves and physical space falls toward the center. Simulating a ring accelerator that, from the outside, creates a spiral on the surface of an hourglass, where each fragment maintains its acceleration velocity regardless of mass: at the height when the beam reaches the center, that is, the mouth of the hourglass, the beam leaps to the other side through the explosion at the origin of stars. This is the phenomenon I call Astrophysical Implosion, a phenomenon that marks the birth of galaxies and stars.

214. For an individual star can give rise to an unlimited number of beams of cosmic energy; the reproduction of matter to infinity is a reality that comes from Eternity. What differentiates this multiplication to infinity is that Before, it required Infinity as a path of transformation, and Afterward, the same process is reproduced on fields of space-time deployed by God at the borders of the Cosmos. This makes the Cosmos a more massive entity and gives Space a higher density of matter, which is why the Cosmos amazes us with new galactic creatures every day the Hubble telescope opens its eyes. Creation is continuous and its expansion constant.

215. This process of multiplication of cosmic matter from a General Cosmological Principle can be compared to a chain reaction that never ends and amplifies its radius of action and extent as time grows from the center outwards. Our telescopic eyes allow us to admire the movement of galaxies within this constantly expanding General Cosmic Space. And also to apply the laws of gravity to galactic entities, whose action we observe as they attract and accumulate; a classical law to which we must add the law of electrodynamic forces, thanks to which the concentration of total mass at a single point is a physical impossibility. This is the extraordinary reason why the movement of the atoms of a hot gas within a container corresponds to the General Cosmological Motion.

CHAPTER 23 THE GENERAL COSMOLOGICAL SPACE

216. The creation of galaxies as an autonomous phenomenon, activated by God through the constant feeding of the transformative field of cosmic energy into astrophysical matter, leads us directly to discover the Cosmos as a field of raw material from which God extracts the matter necessary to build His Works. Among these, our Universe is one. It has not been the first, nor will it be the last. God's word on this matter is firm: “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself does, and he will show him even greater works than these, so that you may marvel.” The theological implications could not be clearer.

217. But why does a beam of cosmic energy not grow to infinity once the speed of light limit is crossed? Given that the origin of astrophysical matter lies in the leap of cosmic energy, and this leap is conditioned by the transformation of kinetic energy into mass, why, once a flight path simulating a vacuum has been created, doesn't the transformation continue to infinity? Wouldn't a projectile fired in a vacuum tend to acquire infinite speed if given an eternity of time? Why, then, doesn't a dark body of infinite mass exist? In short: What kind of safety mechanism limits the leap from cosmic energy to astrophysical matter?

218. The answer lies in experience. The leap to infinity collides with the critical growth point, or Astrophysical Implosion Point, beyond which the stellar body transforms the energy it absorbs into light. Thus, even if the matter-energy system had free rein, the very dynamic weight of the creative process leads it to a point where the transformation into mass gives way to the transformation into light. And the cycle continues. This critical point, then, lies in the nature of matter in general and is preserved throughout the entire leap, from the quantum to the sidereal, and from astrophysics to cosmic physics. Determining how this hard core, the true agent of the interdimensional leap, operates and to what extent its operational revolutions accelerate or decelerate is another matter entirely. And so are other questions related to the creative leap itself. For example, what happens when the created galactic mass has consumed the energy of the spacetime field? And other things besides. We also observe in general cosmic space how galaxies follow the natural pattern of a stream flowing from the mouth of an hourglass rotating on its axis. Comparing the spiral arms to jets of astrophysical energy launched by centrifugal forces into general cosmic space, the range of galaxies unfolds according to the amount of energy concentrated at a given moment by a transformation field. Moreover, if we compare these fields with networks where cosmic energy flows in alternating currents, the aforementioned range expands dramatically, and what we have seen so far is merely a glimpse of what is to come. Galactic species grow into eternity, ad infinitum.

219. And once created, how do galaxies behave? How do they grow? What rule shapes their form? How do they conserve kinetic energy? What is their relationship to the transform field? And what is the relationship between this field and the astrophysical gravitational field? Can we deduce from what we observe any laws that will help us understand the nature of that tree of stellar creatures that is the realm of galaxies? Are we capable of recreating, through the combination of local physical laws, the grand laws that govern motion in Cosmic Space? Why don't galaxies obey the famous law of universal gravity? Why do they behave better like swarms of exotic creatures flying without apparent direction, guided only by whatever path the wind describes? Can the Brownian motion they exhibit be used to apply the laws of electrodynamics to galaxies, by virtue of which laws they repel, collide, mix, divide, multiply, and remain in constant motion? Doesn't the General Cosmological Principle ignore the neutral nature of the universal gravitational field? And what kind of intergalactic currents and winds will this constant motion of these enormous creatures, moving at fantastic speeds through a Cosmos with an eternal vocation, produce? Aren't the nebular storms that sweep across our Galaxy Universe proof of the existence of these intergalactic currents, which, generated by the General Cosmological Principle, carry masses of cosmic matter from one place to another, caused both by the combustion of entire systems and by their existence before the creation of the General Cosmological Principle? (In short, addressing this topic could lead to a mountain of questions piling up. The fact that 20th-century cosmology was omniscient and, with its all-powerful genius, could already assign a nature, age, and distance to a new galaxy is one of those wonders of nature that we must subject to analysis, examination, and critical judgment. But not in this book.)

220. Here it is appropriate to state that the Idea of ​​the Universe came before the Universe itself. This is not about dogmatizing or philosophizing. That is not my intention. It is simply about presenting a reality as natural as the fact that studying the terrain is necessary before constructing any engineering project. Knowing the laws of His Creation, its dimensions, its phenomena, and its nature, it is logical and natural that when considering building a structure, God would draw lines and make calculations, taking into account the influence of the terrain on the future of the building, in this case, an astrophysical one. Better than I, the one who can define this process of study and reflection prior to the Act of Creation is God Himself, who inspired Solomon with these words about His Wisdom: “The Lord possessed me at the beginning of his ways, before his works of old. From eternity I was established, from the beginning, before the earth was. Before the depths, I was brought forth, before the springs of abundant waters arose, before the mountains were established, before the hills, I was conceived. Before he made the earth, or the fields, or the first dust of the earth, when he established the heavens, when he drew a circle on the face of the deep, when he made the clouds above, when he gave strength to the fountains of the deep, when he fixed limits for the sea so that the waters could not transgress its boundaries, when he laid the foundations of the earth, I was with him as its master builder, delighting in him continually, rejoicing before him always.”

221. The Idea in Mind, all the calculations done, God gets to work. In the case of the Heavens, the first thing He did was—according to Solomon—"draw a circle over the face of the deep." That is, He marked the territory, indicated the perimeter within whose diameters He would create the Heavens. Which is to say, He specified the dimensions of the material edifice by the perimeter assigned to it in Space. The radius and diameter of that Circle within whose perimeter He intended to create the Heavens is not a number unknown to us. The reason for this Number, from our knowledge of the nature of the cosmic terrain, is perfectly understandable; especially considering the photo album that Hubble freely provides us. Let us not forget that although the astronomical photograph is limited to offering us a snapshot of matter in time, the phenomena it produces are so similar to the phenomena we observe in the local physical world that, logically, we must deduce from what is known what remains to be known. Don't nebulae resemble atmospheric storms? And don't they appear as if giant waves of energy lift them up and hurl them against the star systems of our Universe?

222. We've now entered the realm of the problem. Galaxies generate powerful currents and winds in the Cosmological Field. These move and follow the directions dictated by the galaxies themselves. But we're not just talking about nebular matter. Here, we must reconcile the law of the curvature of light with the flight of cosmic energy. Let's put it another way. Let's start with a simpler image. Let's transform galaxies into cannons that create cosmic energy. As they create it, they fire it into the Cosmological Field. We don't abolish the speed of light within the galactic field; on the contrary, we maintain its limit. And as it travels, swirling and seeking its way out of the galaxy, the energy jet from one star combines with that of another, ultimately resulting in the projection into Cosmological Space not of beams, but of energy currents.

223. This phenomenon of multiplication and concentration of the mass of a particle beam, creating a current that behaves like a hard core, has been observed in particle accelerators. It has been shown that the quantum multiplication of matter by the acceleration of the initial beam's velocity does not create new, dispersed beams; each beam follows its own trajectory.

224. Outside the galactic gravitational field, the acceleration of the energy currents released by the galaxy tends to increase as they move away from its influence, and to continue growing as they approach the next galaxy. In this sense, the source, the galaxy, behaves like the cannon in which the beam receives its initial energy for cosmic flight, and the Cosmological General Space acts as the accelerator in which the beam multiplies and generates the hard nuclei that create the intergalactic currents at the origin of the displacements of nebular cosmic matter from one place to another. These currents move in the Cosmological General Space in the way that rivers carve their channels around the foothills of mountain ranges and flow in a straight line when the terrain allows. From our Hubbleian understanding of the Cosmos, we can deduce the number and variety of currents moving in intergalactic space, the amount of energy they carry, and the consequences for any system that crosses their path without protection from their wavefront.

225. God's creation in this dynamically structured way, the General Cosmological Space transformed into a surface upon which powerful rivers of cosmic energy paint their beds—the final destination of these currents is the Ocean! And what else can this Ocean be but the external creative field within which the transformation of cosmic energy into astrophysical matter takes place? But before reaching their destination, during their journey from their source-canyons of origin to the Ocean that transforms cosmic currents into astrophysical matter, these cosmic currents behave like true cyclones. Like a river in whose current an old tree falls and is swept downstream, in the same way the cosmic currents move intergalactic nebular matter from one place to another. And just as the wind follows its course as it approaches a mountain, but unloads its burden upon it, in the same way the rivers of cosmic energy do the same upon the galaxies they border. Obviously we cannot detect those currents, but we can deduce them from our knowledge of matter and from what we see with the Hubble telescope.

226. Our Universe-Galaxy, the Milky Way, relates to the rest of Creation according to the parameters of this General Cosmological Movement. Seen from the outside, our universe behaves like the mountain upon which the cosmos releases its clouds, and from whose depths flows a new source of electromagnetic water that spreads its bed across the cosmic field, acquires its intergalactic tributaries, and advances among the galaxies until it reaches its destination. The origin of Nebulae lies in this interplay of interaction, before which, considering its dimensions, God gave our Universe its own.

CHAPTER 24 ASTROPHYSICAL ENGINEERING OF CREATION

227. Creative Intelligence involved itself in the interplay of action and reaction when it erected a Universe designed to withstand the weight of cosmological currents. That is to say, God built the universal edifice endowed with all the physical mechanisms necessary to overcome the consequences of the earthquake that its own creation would inevitably cause. God also knew that, like soldiers falling in the vanguard of battle, many stars outside our Universe would succumb to the force of intergalactic currents. What we call Novae and Supernovae are those warriors that have fallen in battle and disintegrate in fabulous explosions, in turn the cradle of the comets and meteorites that traverse the skies. Let us pause, then, for a moment to consider the origin of Novae and Supernovae. And considering the amount of physical energy a hard core is capable of putting into play, and given the similarity between cosmological space and a particle accelerator, if we elevate the process to the astrophysical dimension and apply the law of mutual influence between field and light, we must conclude that a galactic field reacts to the curvature of the trajectory of cosmic currents by accelerating the rotation rate of its outer stellar belt. Let us elaborate on this behavior.

228. As we see in God's Creation, all the systems of a galactic body combine their fields and create a general field that reacts as a whole to the outside. I have previously compared this general field to an ocean, based on Revelation. Given this similarity, and comparing the universal field to the volume contained in a glass of water, the action of cosmic currents on the gravitational field translates into the water's reaction to the movement of a hand that inserts a finger and rotates it. Since every liquid body has its own inherent motion, natural to the body that contains it, acceleration from the outside must affect the outer zones, from where it flows inward, if necessary.

229. Naturally, not all bodies in a system react in the same way to an external force. In the case of stellar systems, this simple law is a daily reality. And since the transformation of gravity into light depends on the system's rotational speed, which is affected by its interaction with cosmic currents, external stellar systems, when exposed to the action of a finger on water, are constantly accelerated. Some stars handle this reaction perfectly, while others cannot withstand it beyond a critical limit. Once this limit is reached, the system's safety brake breaks down, and the system escapes internal control, heading toward its destruction. The result is a nova explosion. This applies to an individual star. And if the star triggers a chain reaction that drags its entire system into destruction by the heat generated from the accelerated combustion of gravity, we call it a Supernova.

230. Experience speaks for itself. The photograph proves it. And reality convinces. Imagine we have an enormous ball; we want to make it spin by pushing it, but we can't. We call for help, and we keep adding to it until we force it to spin. Once it's spinning, the force needed to maintain its constant rotation will be less, so the effect of the same force on the same ball will be greater as its speed increases. We now elevate this simple exercise to the relationship between a star and its gravitational field. And we agree that the rotation of a gravitational field is similar to that of a solid body in which the star occupies the core. We then compare the action of the cosmic current on this body with the force of the hand on the ball. And there we have the physical effect at the origin of Novas. It is always agreed beforehand that the curvature of a cosmic current, such as light, would not occur if that current had no mass. If it had no mass, it would have no weight, and if it had neither weight nor mass, the phenomenon of light curvature could not exist. From an optical perspective, the curvature of cosmic energy upon entering a gravitational field can be compared to the refraction of light. The trajectory of comets as they pass by the Sun allows us to discover the optical structure of the curvature described by cosmic energy as it passes through a gravitational field. But while, unlike cosmic energy, its curvature remains untouched, in the case of comets we do have the answer that transforms the gravitational field into a reality that behaves, in physical terms, like a body. And as such, it rotates with the celestial body to which it belongs.

231. Knowing that the age of stars is measured by the time it takes them to consume the energy of their gravitational field, a consumption process subject to the transformer's operating speed, logic leads us to believe in the existence of a regulating law between operating revolutions and the system's lifespan. The question at hand is how to accelerate the operating revolutions of the astrophysical transformer to the point of reducing its lifespan to the minimum possible. Logic tells us that there is only one way, and that is by exciting the field to infinity, in the same way that a liquid in a container overflows due to centrifugal force. Isn't this the cumulative action of forces against the large sphere we were discussing? We are talking about currents that move in response to stimuli from galactic fields and the excitation of these fields by these responses: the level of excitation produced will determine the intensification of light production. Greater excitation leads to greater intensity of production and a shorter lifespan for the system. We must relate the phenomena of cyclical and atypical intensification of stellar systems to this universal behavior.

232. In summary: In the case of novae and supernovae, excitation refers to the elevation of the transformation velocity to infinity. Out of control, the natural braking mechanisms of gravitational systems cause the rotation of the star and the field to accelerate and interact until they are consumed, reducing millions of years to a matter of seconds. If we are talking about a simple astrophysical system, we are referring to novae. And if it is an entire multiple system that falls into this dynamic, we are referring to supernovae. Both occur in the outer constellation belts, which are the most exposed to intergalactic currents. These novae and supernovae are also the origin of comets; comets are projected like cannonballs that increase in destructive power as they accumulate space traveled.

233. And in conclusion: With these three fronts of action in mind—Nebulae, Novae, and Comets—God structured the constellation distribution around the Solar System, simulating a gravitational crystalline network against whose solidity the danger of interrupting the Evolution of the Tree of Life on Earth would disintegrate. The marvelous positive results we see should not cloud our intelligence when we see that, in accordance with astronomical dimensions, God drew that Circle upon the Face of the Abyss of which Solomon spoke in his Wisdom. What the wise and peaceful king par excellence saw with the eyes of his Wisdom, we, thanks be to God, see with our own eyes. Clusters and superclusters in the outer belt, and open clusters and multiple systems in the inner one, combine to form this constellational gravitational crystalline network about which there is still so much to say. Let us begin by solving the mystery of the Origin of the Heavens.

CHAPTER 25 ORIGIN AND CONSTITUTION OF THE HEAVENS

234. We now turn to one of the great questions: the origin of the stars in the Firmament. I believe the answer has already been outlined in the preceding sections. The production of stars, as the ultimate goal of the existence of galaxies, leads to the transformation of the Cosmos into the field of raw material from which God extracts the matter with which to create His Works. With the constant creation of galaxies, the total mass of raw material that the cosmic field places at God's service to carry out any Work is limitless. How God extracts this stellar matter and transports it from its regions of origin to the Universe is another matter entirely. Knowing that the manner of doing things always depends on the Power of the one who does them, and that the imagination for doing things is directly related to the Intelligence of the one who sets out to do them, we can speak of great rivers flowing across the intergalactic plains, as the Lord of the Galaxies deems best and in accordance with His needs. What other name can we give to the One who creates and governs them? Or how can we subject to our own judgment the laws that govern them and the behavior of galaxies and their seas of stars in the face of the action of their Creator upon their bodies? Shall we limit Divine imagination with the natural limits of our own? How could we dare to compare our way of living, feeling, breathing, thinking, walking, working, planning, touching, loving, interacting, ordering, laughing, calculating…with those of that Being at the Origin of the Cosmos? From the natural limits of its reality, how could the creature judge its Creator without demonstrating that it is committing an act of madness? The beginning and end of human intelligence is wonder; it is born from the wonder of Creation and ends in the wonder of its Creator. Everything else comes from that seed that was not in Man and was sown in his being by a force external to God's Creation, which is a matter for Theology. In any case, the great question of Origin leads us directly to the other great question: the Constitution of the Universe.

235. From what we have read so far, it follows that the Universe and the Cosmos are two different things. These two things together form God's Creation, and within this, the Cosmos is one thing and the Universe is another. The Cosmos is the field of raw material from which God draws and, with the freedom of the Lord, takes all the materials necessary to carry out His Works. As for the Universe, the Universe is the stellar field where God carries out these Works. When Moses speaks to us of the Creation of the Universe, he was referring to this stellar field. Whose Origin, as we have seen, lies in that cosmological field from which God causes rivers of stars to flow across the intergalactic plains and eventually empty into this universal ocean in whose waters the Tree of Life took root. There is much to say about the Tree of Life, especially at this stage of its history. However, not everything has been said about the Constitution of the Universe.

236. Obviously, Moses speaks in his Account of the Creation of our Heavens. And in doing so, he presents us with a Reality: God is their Creator. A Reality that leads us to another reality: Eternity, that Eternity which implies Infinity. Realities of which the Human Race is the fruit, but not the only one, of that Tree of Life to which the God of Infinity and Eternity gave the Universe as its field of Origin and Growth. This final conclusion leads us back to the revelation of the Son of this Creator and Lord of the Cosmos and the Universe: “The Father shows the Son all that he does, and he will show him greater works than these, so that you may be amazed.” By using the plural when speaking of the Past as a reflection of the Future, the Son of God reveals to us that our Heavens and our Earth, in short, that the Human Race, is not the first Harvest that the Tree of Life has yielded. This statement resolves the dilemma concerning life in the Universe. For humankind is neither the first nor the last fruit of this Tree. Before humankind, other worlds were created, and after humankind, new worlds will spring from the branches of the Tree of Life. The "children of God" spoken of in the Bible are the fruit of those works that the Son declared the Father performs. The regions of origin of these "children of God" in the Universe are not a matter of speculation. The fact is that the knowledge of their existence leads us to a new way of understanding the structure of the Heavens and the Universe in general.

237. And this form relates to the Conception of the Universe. That is, when God conceived it in His Mind, what was the Idea that gave it Origin? Did He create it to be a field on which a house is built, and when it falls into disrepair, it is torn down and another is built? Or did He create it to be built over time, in the way that someone who owns land cultivates and transforms it as time passes? Did He create the Heavens that surround the Earth and are the cradle of Humankind to be swept away from the Universe by time, or did He create the Heavens to remain eternally?

238. And considering this last alternative, and knowing that the creation of a World introduces into the Universe a set of constitutional problems of astronomical magnitude, as we have seen in the previous sections, isn't the Universe a field continually subject to a creative definition of its regions due to the transformation of those regions into zones of Origin of Worlds? Let us return to the Principle of the Universe to better define this constant creation of universal geography.

239. Having created the Cosmos as a region that produces Galaxies, and these being factories of stars, God thinks of Life and conceives of a stellar ocean that will continually grow, and beneath whose Waters Life will take root, unfurl its Tree, and bear its Fruit. Thus, God opens the Beginning of the origins of Worlds by directing rivers of stars from all parts of the cosmic field, which cross the cosmological plains from their sources in the galactic mountain ranges and flow into a specific space, where they create an Ocean of stars, the Universe. This Universe is initially amorphous and somewhat wild, in which clusters and superclusters associate and dissociate, and stellar currents move subject to the forces deployed within this Ocean of stars, which have surged onto the shores of the Universe. But the purpose of this movement is to sow Life and reap its Fruit; the horizon that God extends to the Universe is Infinity. And age is Eternity. So, during each Act of Creation, He extends His Hand over a region of the Universe and shapes it, sculpts it, identifies it, gives it properties, giving form to the amorphous, making identifiable what had no identity of its own. Within this continuous Process of Creation of the Universe, and as a result of this movement, our Heavens were born. The fundamental question—whether the Heavens of our Firmament were created to remain or to be swept away from space like a sandcastle as the tide rises—has a final, decisive answer: in creating them, and through their creation, God gave form and identity to a region of the Universe as a whole. I believe that in His Book, He subtly planted the expression: the Heavens of heavens, where the Universe is identified with Heavens, the dwelling place of many heavens, each of these in the image and likeness of our own, the cradle and origin of other worlds that were and others that will be, each with its own unique region. This aspect leads us to another question: Navigation through the Universe.

240. The tendency toward infinite growth that God has given to the Universe presupposes and implies the need for a universal cosmography that allows for inner navigation through the remote identification of its constituent regions. God is free and powerful to do what the tide does to a sandcastle, but He did not conceive of the Universe in this way. He could have compiled the celestial history and constitution of each world into a book, but in His mind, He conceived that this history and constitution would remain eternally, the heavens becoming the letters of this universal book where each chapter deals with the creation of a world and its contents. Are not the lines upon which the stars are arranged beautiful, writing this message to humankind: Infinity + Eternity = God?
