This beautiful engraving appears before our eyes to show us the balance of dimensions and worlds in interstellar space. That is why it is called the “Weighing of the Worlds.” That is, it shows how the Architect of the Universe considers that the energies of the Cosmos are distributed, and does so through a scale that designates where the superior energies are and where the inferior ones are.

Mystical enthusiasm is a basic ingredient in the permanent search for the BEING.
