‎“Chaos, the life force of the universe, is not human-hearted. Therefore the wizard cannot be human-hearted when he seeks to tap the force of the universe. He performs monstrous and arbitrary acts to loosen the hold of human limitations upon himself.”

ART: "Chaos" Marcelo Araújo, 2017

This artwork unveils Chaos (χάος)....the ancient current beneath all creation, a force both destructive and divine. The tower entwined with dark tendrils reminds us that within disorder lies raw potential, the primal energy from which worlds are shaped. To face chaos is not to be consumed by it, but to harness its untamed power, to draw from the void the spark of new creation. For those who dare, chaos becomes not an enemy, but the wellspring of transformation.

‎“The mysteries of truth are revealed in symbols and images.
‎The bridal chamber is not for animals, nor for slaves, nor for defiled women,
‎but for free men and virgins.
‎In it, the veil is torn,
‎and the soul unites with her counterpart,
‎and light meets light.
‎This is the holy marriage of Spirit and matter,
‎and the one who enters becomes divine.”

‎“Ignorance is a slave, knowledge is freedom.
‎If we know the truth, we shall find the fruits of the truth within us.
‎If we are joined to it, it will bring our fulfillment.
‎Ignorance leads us to death, but knowledge leads us to life.
‎Blessed is he who comes to himself and awakens, for he has overcome the bonds of illusion.”

‎“When Eve was in Adam, there was no death.
‎When she was separated from him, death came.
‎If she enters into him again and he embraces her,
‎death shall no longer be.
‎In the same way, when the two become one,
‎when the inside becomes like the outside,
‎and the male with the female,
‎then the Kingdom of Heaven shall appear.”
‎.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
‎
‎“Light and darkness, life and death, right and left,
‎are brothers of one another.
‎They are inseparable.
‎Because of this, neither are the good good,
‎nor the evil evil,
‎nor is life life,
‎nor death death.
‎Therefore each one will dissolve into its original root,
‎but those who are exalted above the world are immortal.”
‎.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
‎
‎“Those who say they will die first and then rise are mistaken.
‎If they do not receive the resurrection while they live,
‎when they die they will receive nothing.
‎It is said of those who have come to know the truth:
‎‘While we were in the world,
‎we made a resurrection for ourselves.’
‎If you do not make yourself alive while you are living,
‎you will die in darkness.”

“Self-interest distinguishes most men at this time, with attendant weaknesses. Yet, in all countries, there are those who have outgrown these self-centred attitudes and there are many who are more interested in civic and the national good than in themselves. A few, a very few in relation to the mass of men, are internationally minded and preoccupied with the welfare of humanity, as a whole.”

~ Alice A. Bailey
