The Devas
The
Devas of Creation illustrate the concept of the invisible
energy patterns in the universe. Deva is a Sanskrit word meaning ‘shining
ones’; it has more of an animist slant than our more familiar term
angel, which comes from the Greek angelos, meaning messenger.
Devas are primordial energies, inner blueprints for every aspect of existence
– from the smallest sub-atomic particle to Divinity itself.
Seventy-two
images move from the nothingness of the Void to the first spark, then
to the massive explosion of consciousness into energy that could be called
the Big Bang, or Deity. From there we move through the different aspects
of creation - the fundamental laws, the angelic realms and qualities of
consciousness, to denser, more ambivalent states. The Source is then ready
to create its most difficult - and most impressive - manifestation: matter.
Reflecting
Divine Consciousness, the cosmos forms, together with the heavenly bodies,
the stars and nebulae, the sun, the planets and our earth. We see its
elements, the seasons and its environments, and take a trip down into
the microscopic and the quantum realms. Finally we move through into the
most mysterious realm of all, dark matter or the Seed Void, which leads
us back to the Void itself.
________________________________
The
Devas of Creation are a new and unique concept.
The seventy-two images are used to connect not only with intuition and
the subconscious, but also with the energies of creation itself.
The
images can be used for self-awareness and -development, for meditation,
journeying, and the growth of spiritual and psychic abilities.
In addition, meditating on the images and allowing ourselves to journey
into them, connects us with the rhythms of existence and Divinity, the
Source, God/dess - however you envisage All That Is. Our energy then aligns
with that of the cosmos, and we open ourselves to our highest Good.
