Course XXXIX - Teaching 1: Formation of the Systems

The Universe is the measure of God. Infinite as to its power, finite as to its expression.
As God is infinite, the word “finite” is strange to Him; so, the finite Universe is the thorough expression of a simple and perfect measure; but it is infinite by His continuous and inalterable permanence.
God can infinitely reproduce this very perfect and simple measure, which is finite by exactitude. The coagulating formation of the Great Cosmic Element leads to the formation of galaxies and by condensation of these cosmic coagulations great sidereal islands take form, which give life to planetary systems by the law of reciprocal expansion and separation.
In the beginning, these heavenly bodies just were immense accumulations of material and spiritual energies forming a great nebula, from which the Planetary Wheels would emerge through their condensation, separation and definition.
Definition of Planetary Wheel: Planetary Wheel is the evolutionary way of a Planetary System from its birth to its death.
Through the explanation of a Planetary System, the way of formation of all Planetary Systems remains approximately explained.
