Period – Each period is divided into three phases which are spirit, energy, matter. They appear in this successive order in the period of descent or involution, and in the reverse order, in the opposite period, in the evolutionary period, which is ours.
In the descent the divine substance remained unalterable in each phase, so it remains in its return to the Father: In order not to confuse the spirit with the matter, of which it is its guiding principle, it is enough to use the referential God or the Law.
While the first period of the fall or involution will mean the destruction of the spiritual universe and the creation or construction of our physical universe, this second period of ascent or evolution means the destruction of matter as such and the reconstruction of the original, spiritual universe.
