OCEAN, OR SEA (FEMININE)
A symbol of primordial Truth on the matter side
of being, which brings forth all qualities and forms proceeding from
the Absolute.
"The feminine Sephirah Binah is sometimes termed by the Qabbalists
the Great Sea. Among her Divine names are Ya H and Elohim. She is
called the Great Mother, the Upper Mother. She is the Holy Spirit
and the Upper She-kheen-ah. Her symbol is the brooding dove; she
brooded over the face of the waters at creation." - MYER, Qabbalah,
p. 336.
The highest condition on the matter side of manifestation is
Truth-reality (ocean) in its receptive aspect (feminine) towards
Spirit. This primordial condition of things fructified by the Higher
Self is the "Great Mother" bringing forth on the buddhic plane the
prototypes of all forms for the manifestation of the Divine Life on
the higher and lower planes.
