Goodness—Element 12
The Spiritual Periodic Table of the Elements
Goodness-Element 12
We come here to the last, but not least, of the Divinities, the Elements of the lightest weights which rise of their own nature to the highest levels. Goodness weighs the most of these elements; and this is so because of all the Divinities it is the one which acquires the most mass, it being the sense and aim of existence of every element which follows. It needs the mass to anchor it; and serves as the bridge between the Divinities, which are of God, and all heavenly and earthly things, which are of Angels and Daemons, of devils and creatures. All of creation aspires to goodness and the concentration of each bend of elements and of all spiritual minerals in general can be said to serve for the purpose of the concentration and precipitation of goodness.
Goodness, it can strangely said, does not exist of itself or alone. It precipitates from the blending of all other elements in various forms; and as an element it then blends back into the other elements, folding in upon itself like an origami figure. Folding concentrates goodness by bringing its various features, once blended with the other elements, into contact with one another. This creates more and more goodness of many different kinds, all of which can be organically sensed by the various sentient creatures and objects of creation.
