Cosmos Body of God

COSMOS THE BODY OF GOD: ISA PURUSHA TATVA
M.M.NINAN
Here is how Theosophical Dictionary explains it:
“Purusha corresponds to the Greek "First or Unmanifest Logos"; yet at times the svabhavic
characteristics of Purusha are reminiscent rather of the Third or Manifest Logos, which shows the
various functions attributed to Purusha in cosmogony which have gained currency at different times in
Hindu thought. Unmanifested Logos is correctly said to be the first manifestation of the Absolute
or the summit or primordial originant of a cosmic hierarchy, of which there are innumerable
multitudes in boundless space. The unmanifest corresponds to primordial unity where the totality of
the manifested universe is "all numbers." Behind the ultimate which can be conceived, we have to
postulate an unknown indefinable antecedent, which may therefore be called unmanifest. It is called
the Verbum or the Word by the Christians, and it is the divine Christos who is eternally in the
bosom of his father. It is called Avalokiteswara by the Buddhists; at any rate, Avalokiteswara in one
sense is the Logos in general. In almost every doctrine they have formulated the existence of a
centre of spiritual energy which is unborn and eternal, and which exists in a latent condition in
the bosom of Parabrahmam.” (Theosophical dictionary)
The first Triad that appeared in the creative realm were the characteristics of the unknown
Triad
