Billions of years ago, throughout our universe as well as many others,
chaos gave way to order as life began to spring up. More and more
universes began to emerge, and more and more galaxies within those
universes. Giant balls of hot gases began to give light and were called
stars. Particles of dust and other matter began to bond together around
the stars to form planets. Finally the planets were sprinkled with the
right ingredients to form plants, animals and humanoid beings we call
man on our planet and alien beings on others.
As everything continued to expand, more branches were added to the
tree of life until finally it bore the most beautiful fruit that could ever be
given. That gift was knowledge. Not only did we have the knowledge
of past present and future, we also had the knowledge that everything is
part of everything. Even down to the last subatomic particle, everything
came from the same never dying energy.
When the ancients of this and other planets realized that their people
started to forget that they came from the everything, they tried to
remind them but it was too late. They decided to hide the knowledge so
that it would never be destroyed and with the hope that one day the
people would be ready to accept the knowledge once again.
As time went on, and beings from every place and every time forgot
more and more, the tree of life stopped bearing fruit and the branches
began to die and fall off becoming completely separate and apart from
the tree.
I present to you the tree of life as it once was long ago. The five main
roots at the base of the tree represent the shape of the pentagon and
pentagram which is the symbol for the perfect number or golden ratio,
the branches are shown flourishing and reaching out and up. The trunk
of the tree is made in the form of a double helix which is a symbol for
all life and representation of the strand of DNA. Finally the top of the
tree is crowned with the bright and beautiful flower which symbolizes
the fruit or the gift of knowledge.
Now do you re- member?
