One Original Thought[83]
There is infinite novelty, surprise, and variety for the Creator to discover and experience in the ever-unfolding act of creation. As Ra says:
Yet, there is only one original thought.
All subsequent thought (all the creation’s novelty and variety) is derived from, or a product of, the original thought—which is to say, the entire universe is the product of this one thought. Everything that springs from that original thought, then, is no longer quite original.[84]
In the conscious Confederation channeling there is often a linking of the One Original Thought with Love itself, the Love that is synonymous with the Logos. In my humble understanding of the cosmic genesis in the Law of One, this is true enough—for the One Great Logos[85] is the kinetic side of intelligent infinity: the focus of Free Will, the first manifestation of Consciousness, the creation being born.[86]
However, it seems to go deeper than “the Original Thought is love” because Love (or Logos) is the second great distortion. The first great distortion is Free Will. The first distortion is infinity becoming aware; infinity realizing or discovering that it can and will know Itself. The Focus that this moment then finds—the Consciousness that is born—is the second distortion, the Logos.
The One Original Thought, then, may be infinity becoming aware and conceiving that an infinite, unified Creator could and would know Itself through the division into subject and object, the manifestation of manyness. What a Thought! As this Q’uo channeling indicates:
Q’uo: […] The One Great Original Thought that has set all into motion is the creation itself, that which you experience at this time and that which is beyond your current ability to perceive but which shall become more and more available to you as you progress in your own evolutionary journey. To say that the One Great Original Thought is the Logos is to somewhat misapply the term “Logos,” for the One Thought of the Creator was the thought that It would know Itself. This is the concept of Free Will as you know it.
The means by which the Creator decided to know Itself was to employ the great creative energy and power of infinite numbers of Logoi so that each Logos is as a star or sun body and is an entity of completeness with all densities represented within it. Each Logos has within its care some form of planetary system that also offers the opportunity for what you know as life to be created and supported therein, and to move upon the evolutionary path utilizing the free will embedded within all creation by the Creator in Its One Great Original Thought.
K: How were you able to perceive the nature of the One Great Original Thought if it was in the mind of the Creator or within the Creator?
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my brother. As we all are a portion of this one Creator, cells within the one great body of Being, each may, through the process of meditation, retire in a single-pointed fashion to that sacred room within, and in those special moments of illumination become aware of the nature of the self and the nature of the Creator and the nature of the creation as being One. – Jan 11, 1995
This thought, however, was not a one-off, shall we say; as if the Creator had this original idea and there it stood, forever fixed in the past like a memory in a picture. Rather, the One Original Thought seems to evolve with the evolution of creation. This seed idea that births everything gains from and grows with that which is learned in the great and simultaneous experiment of manifest creation.
In evolutionary terms, this learning absorbs all energies and experiences at the close of the octave, incorporates the distilled lessons, and births a new octave—that new octave imprinted with the lessons of the prior.[87] So that in any given octave, the One Original Thought is not just infinity’s initial seed idea, but subsequently also includes all that has been learned previously/will be learned in the next octave in the experience of the Creator by the Creator. Each generation, then, refines the One Original Thought.
Regarding that final sentence, it is as if the Primal Logos, the first great primordial focus/consciousness of aware infinity, designs the parameters of the play, endows its creation and all infinite fractal iterations of itself with free will and creative capacity, and then sets the whole enchilada into motion; thence forward witnessing what Its parts create (or distort) with their own free will. Then, at the conclusion of the octave, the Creator reabsorbs all that had been experienced and learned. And plays back the greatest possible movie of all time.
Yet, perhaps it is that the Logos is the One Original Thought, or is that which holds and manifests the Original Thought.[88] Ra indicates that, prior to any manifestation of the universe as we know it, the Logos conceives and designs our creation in its “thought complexes.” So it is that the Logos is something of the consciousness or mind of the Creator, building and then manifesting a plan to enact and fulfill the Creator’s desire to know Itself. If indeed there was a first Logos (as the quote above could be interpreted to mean), that first Logos conceives or embodies the Original Thought, and all subsequent octave-level generations of Logoi harvest and refine that Original Thought, particularly through their sub-Logoic offspring.
Also, Ra seems to use “Word” synonymously with “Thought” in the quote above when they say, “the power of the Original Word or Thought.” “Logos” is also understood to be “Word,” not in the grammatical sense of “word,” but as the creative, ordering, generative principle of the universe.
At any rate…
