principle"; and this also is a correct rendering of
Bereshith. [also John 1:1 in the Latin of the
Vulgate]. Relates also to the reality that
"beginning and end are One." The process which
begins from the higher unity of life ends there as
well.

than heaven and earth; so it is with our stone
among earthly things: for the spring where it is
found is called the fount of nature. For heaven as
though Nature all growing things are generated
by the heat of the sun, so also through Nature is
our tone born after that it has generated." [Waite,
1974, vol. 1, p. 1811 "In the fountain of Nature
our Substance is found, and nowhere else upon
earth; and our Stone is fire [2 16, Latin], and has
been generated in fire, without, however, being
consumed by fire." [ibid, p.2 131
