And we know that when man is perfected, Adam will remember his entire self in all his hypostases, in the reverse stream of time, flowing back to the gates of Eden, and primeval man will remember his Eden. In Christ, true God and true man, the locus of the hypostases of divine and human natures, he finds the perfect metaphor for the analogical image. The key was determining that its second part consisted of nine hypotheses: of five interlocking positive hypotheses and four interlocking negative, the positive each dealing with the five hypostases or levels of reality (beginning with the One and descending via Mind, Soul, and Quality to Matter), and the negative with the absurd consequences that would ensue if the One did not exist. |
