The living being has the Godhead as its progenitor just as a terrestrial human being has two parents as its progenitors
1122. But this gift is not merely "divine"; it also constitutes an eternal, indelible "paternal birthmark" that irrefutably proves the identity of the "living being" as a "son of God" or the eternal progenitor of the universe. And is it not this gift that in the form of the being's "inner world" is its complete consciousness? Is it not from this "inner world" that it manifests or reveals itself? What could it render visible or reveal if it did not possess this "inner world"? How could it appear as a "living being" without this? Is this "inner world", as previously mentioned, not a "living copy" of the "outer world"? Is this "outer world" not in turn the same as the consciousness of Providence and thereby the same as the "consciousness of God"? And is this "consciousness of God" not thus transferred to the being through the reaction of its senses to this consciousness? And could the being acquire this "inner world", which means its own identity with life, from any other source or progenitor? No, the cosmos or universe of course comprises everything that exists. It is a phenomenon that is unparalleled, just as there cannot exist anything above, below, in front of or behind it. It constitutes and is "absolutely everything". But then it is established as fact that the "living being", as previously stated, is a "son of God". It has the Godhead as its progenitor, just as a terrestrial human being has two parents as its progenitors.
