Eghersis
is a transliteration of the Greek word, εγερσις, which has the meaning of being roused to life. Thus, it is my hope that what you find on this blog will empower, arouse, stimulate, excite, and animate your life--your soul, your spirit--the wholeness of who you are.

Final Words On Being a Helix in the Trinitarian Matrix

From the previous ten posts 

On Being a Helix in the Trinitarian Matrix 

come these final words.


In motion with Infinite Symmetry

Stretching under the Trinitarian nudge

An exquisite replica of the Exquisite Designer

Mesmerizing centered magic

Edges of mystery

Dancing to a Trinitarian rhythm

Sustaining image of created variety

Room in the Trinitarian Matrix

Deep devotion

Pathway to light

Ascent to Light


Ascent

Pathway to light 

Circling upward,

Conduit to clarity

Where dimness

Is brightened

Circling upward,

Corridor to center

Where shadows

Are illuminated

Circling upward,

Conveyor of colors

Where truth

Is highlighted

Pathway to light

Ascent

Descent into Devotion


Descent

Around and down,
Around and down,
Around and down,

Distractions
Disappear
Into Distance.

Dialogues
Diminish
Into Deepness.

Diffusions
Distillate
Into Devotion.

Around and down,
Around and down,
Around and down,

Descent

Close and Open in the Trinitarian Matrix


Something I’ve noticed about helixes is that they can be wide, open, and spacious; or they can be narrow, tight, and close; or they can be at some point in between. There is loveliness in all. Whether open or closed or somewhere in between, all attract my attention and invite reflection.

My present state of being tends toward the narrow and close type of helixes. But I find in this pulled-in place a kind of quiet introspection and a sort of tight reflection taking place. It is a turning inward like a right-handed helix. It is a closing in on oneself in order to nurture and refresh the soul. This is my introverted way of being.

Other times, my extroverted self spins outward. I come out from inside like a left-handed helix. I am wide and open. There is noise and chatter. It is a stretched-out place where I find a kind of loud and loose reflection. It is a turning outward to express the soul and to participate with others in this soul sharing. It is a generous giving and receiving place.

In the Trinitarian Matrix, there is space for my close helical being and for my open helical being and for all my helical points in between. Whatever helical shape I find myself showing, there is room for it in the Matrix of the Trinity.

Helix Variety in the Trinitarian Matrix


Today’s word for my helical thoughts is variety. As I have been looking at different kinds of helices, I am amazed at the infinite number of ways the helix is represented. Those that are man-made consist of wood, metal, concrete, rods, plastic, paper, fibers, paint, ad infinitum. Then, there are those in nature—in twigs, in tendrils, in flowers, in seeds, in hair, in DNA, ad infinitum.

They are of differing textures and differing colors. They are of differing heights and widths, and lengths. Some are rigid. Some are flexible. Some are hard. Some are soft. Some are plain. Some are intricate. Some are strong. Some are delicate. Some are smooth. Some are sharp. Some are open. Some are closed. The ways to describe a helix are innumerable, yet each one is a helix in its simplest design.

I am that helix. In my simplest design, I am created in the image of my Creator. Yet, that foundational image is expressed in the most varied of ways. It is the way of creativity. I am a soul expressed in infinite variety. Yet, the very core of my being is that image, that shape, that piece of the Trinitarian Matrix. It is that image that sustains the variety of my helical self.

The Helical Dance in the Trinitarian Matrix


Dynamic describes the helix. Its very stillness moves. It is an invitation to explore, to discover, to be entranced. It is a dance of lines and curves and parts and pieces. My helical desire moves me. My helical stillness invites me. I turn. I twirl to the rhythms of the helical dance.  

My movements invite me to explore and discover the Trinitarian Matrix. The helical music captures me and carries me away, into the Three. Together we sway and swirl in the motion of the Matrix. The Trinitarian Song keeps time and measures the dance, the helical dance in the Trinitarian Matrix.

Helical Edges and Boundaries in the Trinitarian Matrix


At this moment, I am thinking about edges and boundaries. Edges and boundaries exist in the helix. They describe the helix. They make the helix. They beautify the helix. Without them, the helix would not be. 

So too, my helical edges and boundaries describe me, make me, and beautify me. When I am bold enough to peer over my edges, I get sight of what lies at the center. I get a glimpse of the God who is present within me. I begin to see that my soul and my God are complex. Not easily described. Mysterious persons of wordless imagination and beauty.

These same edges establish my boundaries. They hold me in place and prevent me from drifting too far over my edges. They permit me to see what beauty there is in the lower regions. And they allow me to descend slowly into those places. And the mystery of the Trinitarian Matrix is maintained.

Yes, More On Being a Helix in the Trinitarian Matrix






My fascination with the helix is increasing. Its magic mesmerizes. It summons me to the center—to my centered place. And although it is a spacious place and one of free movement, my helical center bids me to focus.

It draws my inner eye to see the minute and particular details of my soul. It invites me to walk forward into that focused center, to explore the depths of my helical self, and to discover what makes me a helix in the Trinitarian Matrix.

And More On Being a Helix in the Trinitarian Matrix


Today’s helical thought spirals into beauty.  The helix is absolutely exquisite. It is excellent. It is pleasing. It is altogether lovely. I can think of nothing other than superb design.

I am that helix, superbly designed: a small helix in the helicoidal matrix of the Trinity. I am a small reflection of the Beautiful One, a petite detail of the Exquisite One, a minor swirl of the Excellent One, a diminutive piece of the Pleasing One, a wee wisp of The Lovely.

Such Excellence honors me. I am a helical replica in the Trinitarian Matrix of Helices. Exquisite Loveliness intertwines us. The Designer beautifies the designee.

More On Being a Helix in the Trinitarian Matrix


Stretching comes to mind today. A flexible helix stretches to infinity with the proper configuration. As a helix in the Trinitarian Matrix, there are moments of stretching, of pulling, of rearranging my shape. These stretching moments reveal the stuff of which I am made.

How flexible am I? How far can I be stretched before my rigidity cracks my composition?

Sometimes, I prefer all of my edges to be settled comfortably in a pile. But a pile of edges is stationary. I need the Trinitarian nudge that stretches my edges, rearranges my configuration, and moves me forward into a new place. There my edges can wait for the next matrical-stretching moment.

A Helix in the Trinitarian Matrix


The helix has captured my imagination. I imagine myself to be a helix in the Trinitarian Matrix. Supple and graceful. In motion. Sometimes stirring slowly. Sometimes turning quickly. Sometimes spiraling upward. Sometimes traveling downward. Designed to imitate the Infinitely Symmetrical One.
