The Ancient Wisdom sees the universe as the effect or product of consciousness and at the same time, is consciousness; it is a matter of the levels of consciousness. Helena P. BLAVATSKY expresses this idea as, “Cosmic Mind is MAHAT, or divine ideation in active (creative) operation, and thus only the periodical manifestation in timeand in actu of the Eternal Universal Mind — in potentia.”
