BIBLE VERSES

TIAMAT, THE SPIRIT OF CHAOS

A symbol of the emotion-nature undirected by the mind.

"The Deep over which Tiamat-the Spirit of Chaos-held sway, was without limits or law, whose only progeny was a brood of monsters." — SAYCE, Rel. of Egypt. and Babyl., p. 376.

The emotion-plane is not the plane whereon harmony and order are first maintained. That order is introduced through the manasic evolution which guides and directs, and moulds and defines. The "monsters" are inchoate emotions of all kinds, which are quite without any sense of that due proportion which reason brings about.
