92. THE EMANATION OF KALA PURUSHA AND ADYA

            136. The first creational impulse seems to have spent itself as a result of the creation of the spiritual regions, and there was accordingly a cessation for some time in the work of creation. During this period of cessation, the pre-creational eternal energy (action), i.e. external attraction augmented speed in consequence of the influence exercised over it by the lower parts of the already created spiritual regions. These lower parts of the pure spiritual region, although they had been spiritualized to such an extent as to be fit for association with the region of the supreme source, still had, to some extent, within them the spirituality of a lower order, the creational action involved in the formation of the sub-regions of Mahasunna being not sufficient to eliminate it entirely. This residual short-coming was subsequently removed when the creational process commenced again.

            137. It may be mentioned here, by the way, that the fifth sub-division of a set of six sub-divisions is the one which is endowed with generative functions. For instance, the fifth nervous centre reckoned downwards from the centre of the spirit-entity, viz, the centre situated within the organ of reproduction, is endowed with generative or sexual functions. The fifth sphere of Brahmanda, viz, that of Brahma, is similarly endowed. In these regions, viz, in the third grand division and in the second grand division of creation, the distinction between the male and female generative functions is manifest. In the first grand division, however, as we have already stated, these two functions are merged in each other, and sexual function of the kind met with on the earth does not exist. The fifth sphere of the purely spiritual region, viz, Sat Loka was, however, the place in which the commingling of the spirit and sound currents occurred in a pronounced form. In the next stage of creation, these functional qualities, together with the lower spirituality imbibed during the interval of creational rest, referred to, were cast out as separate currents. The first current, which emanated from the presiding deity of Sat Loka, viz, Sat Purusha, being the offshoot cast off by the sound-current, had great kinetic power in overcoming resistance of every description and is known as the Kala Purusha or Brahma. He was void of the centre-forming capacity and accordingly could not alone perform the work of creation in the lower strata of the eternal neutral zone. The second current, which emanated from Sat Purusha, being an offshoot of the spirit-current of the purely spiritual region, had within it the capacity of forming centres, and contained within it countless spirit-entities or points which did not have sufficient spirituality in them, or which were not sufficiently pure to remain in the spiritual region. The colour of the current of Kala Purusha was a dazzling bluish tint, as compared with the refulgence of the spiritual regions, while that of the other current, which is technically known as Adya, was a greenish yellow hue.
