There is a manifestational representative, a counter-receptive, throughout all levels of manifestation, as all life is inhabited by spirit and permeated with the spiritual forces from whence it came. So too, all spirit and spiritual forces desire expression into the farthest corner, the deepest ravine, the darkest shelter.
Where manifestation creates, spirit is present and forever pressing upon. There is no place where this cannot be, and so we must look to the world with new eyes for seeing the indwelling cohabitants and their true function in the world-being, which they represent.
Vast reservoirs of water are pools of cosmic influence. Times past, all earthly substance was fluidic by nature. Mass was without weight, constantly forming and unforming.
