1710. In the way described here, the term "Adam" thus covers the preterrestrial existence of physical living beings, that is to say, their existence in paradise or the kingdom of bliss, which in turn is the "autumn zone" of the spiral cycle.The term "Eve", on the other hand, covers the terrestrial or physical principle of existence of all living beings in the spiral cycle's "winter zone", which culminates in the animal kingdom.In the strict, cosmic sense, "Eve" thus does not constitute a specific term for "woman".It is to just as great an extent a term for "man"."Eve" is actually the absolute, cosmic term for "man" and "woman", just as "Adam" is the absolute, cosmic term for the living being before it became a specifically "male" being or a specifically "female" being."Adam" is thus not a specific term for the being we call "man"."Adam" is the living being in the spiral cycle's "zone of life", while "Eve" is the living being in this cycle's "zone of death"."Adam" is love, and "Eve" (man and woman) is hatred."Adam" is perfection, while "Eve" is imperfection."Adam" is joy and light, while "Eve" is sorrow and darkness."Adam" is paradise or the kingdom of heaven, while "Eve" is Armageddon or hell."Adam" is compliance with the law of life, while "Eve" is infringement of the law of life.As we see, "Adam" and "Eve" are by nature so completely different that any marriage between two such beings (a superterrestrial, spiritual or heavenly being and a terrestrial physical being) would be a complete impossibility.
