## 2. Birth of Subject and Eight Realms of Awareness ¶

In the process of being and becoming, there are two distinct roots — right beneath the **Threshold Mirror**, the **Absolute Throne**, the **Mind of God**:

- The _radiant_ **Outward** manifestation. An all-pervading field of _consciousness_; and 
- The _absorbent_ **Inward** manifestation. An all-supporting field of _substance_.

In simple terms: the **Seer** and the **Seen**, or **Energy** and **Matter**. As the **Seer** enters into the **Seen**, as **Energy** couples with **Matter**, there is progressive awareness of particular forms. 

Should awareness lock into one of these forms, this all-pervading field of consciousness enters into a tunnel. Picture a funnel of the _Absolute_ into the _Relative_. And through this funnel, specific forms of life are animated with sentience.


### 2.1 - The Eight Frames and Phases of Becoming ¶

In the world of concrete forms you, a human being, are a prime example. We enter concrete time and space. There is a sequence to existence. There are frames and phases to your evolution, and there are corresponding states or primary fields of consciousness. The octagon, eight realms of becoming: 

- 1. First, you are born, present in a vessel — a **physical body**. 
- 2. Second, you open your eyes and perceive an environment — **orientation and insights**. 
- 3. Third, you take in the environment — **impressions and feelings**. 
- 4. Fourth, as you reconcile your insights and emotions — **dreams and aspirations**. 
- 5. Fifth, as you determine your direction — **will and objectives**. 
- 6. Sixth, as you engage with the environment — **works and transformation**. 
- 7. Seventh, as you pool together your harvest — **integration and reconciliation**.
- 8. And eighth, as you align and harmonize your life — **culmination and fulfillment**. 

As noted, these stations of life are also found as fields of consciousness — windows or lenses of your awareness, attending to the life-cycles of all things in existence. 


### 2.2 - The Eight Frames as Psychosomatic Centers ¶

And you will also find these fields present as psychosomatic centers in your being —

- 1. Where your _physical presence_, your vessel, is the **Root**;
- 2. Where your _vision and orientation_ is the **Third Eye**; 
- 3. Where your _impressions and emotions_ are the **Heart**;
- 4. Where your _dreams and aspirations_ are the **Throat**;
- 5. Where your _will and directives_ are the **Sacral**;
- 6. Where your _works and engagement_ are the **Plexus**;
- 7. Where your _integration and reconciliation_ are the **Cranium**; and
- 8. Where your _culmination and fulfillment_ are the **Crown** — beyond your body. 


### 2.3 - The Eight Frames in Nature ¶

And you may also find these eight stations in the environments of nature:

- 1. Where your _root_ and _physical body_ are the fertile **Pastures** that support the countless expressions of life;
- 2. Where your _third eye_ and _insights_ are the **Mountain** peak that unfolds your perspectives;
- 3. Where your _heart_ and _feelings_ are the **Stream** that flows in many textures in the riverbeds of your life;
- 4. Where your _throat_ and _aspirations_ are the **Wind** on its journey touching the potentials of life;
- 5. Where your _sacral_ and _will_ are the **Thunder** that strikes and inseminates the earth;
- 6. Where your _plexus_ and _works_ are the **Flames** that illuminate and transform your environment;
- 7. Where the _cranium_ and your _integration_ are the **Ocean**, a pool of your accumulated essence; and 
- 8. Where the _crown_ and _culmination_ are the **Heaven**, the consummation of all that you are. 

These eight are the framings of your life, archetypes of evolutionary concerns. Find them in the stages of your life, in the greater cycle of your being — but also find them in all the micro-cycles of each and every living process you engage with. Find them in the cycles of nature, find them in the progress of human society.


### 2.4 - Universals with Countless Castings ¶

As the four elements are universal, taking on countless castings, countless masks, countless flavors in different contexts — so too the eight stages of evolution, the framings in time and space, are universal and find countless expressions. 

Journey through the realms a thousand times, turn the compass of elements a thousand times more — and you may find yourself growing closer to the **Mirror** in the midst of all things, to the **Mind** of **God**, a prism of countless generations. 

Let the **Seer** see; let the **Seen** be seen. _"I am that I am not"_, and _"I become as I become"_ — without attachment, free of fixation to particular states. You are not the **Seer** — you are not the **Seen**. From there: Your liberation.
