Al Hayy Al Qayyum
The Ever Living One The Sustainer
Temporality and Eternity
Eternity and Temporality
There is an aspect of Eternity and Temporality in both these attributes
Al Hayy, The Ever Living One is Eternally Living as Manifestations of Temporal Creations
Al Qayyum, is The Eternal Sustainer of Temporal Creations

Eternity and Temporality
The Gardens and Rivers of Paradise
Surah As Saff – The Ranks
Surah 61 Ayah 12
“(IF you do so) He will forgive you your sins and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant dwelling in Gardens of Adn – Eternity”
Paradise is described as having flowing rivers and stable gardens.
Heraclitus mentions the river as a metaphor for the reality of flow and constant change.
A Garden is planned out, tended, maintained, cultivated, and harvested.
The Garden is a metaphorical representation for stability and permanence.
Al-Qayyum, is the Stabilizer or Sustainer. Garden Metaphor. Stabilization.
Al-Hayy, is the Ever Living One. River Metaphor. Flow.
In order for man to cultivate a Garden a man must increase in the knowledge of stabilization or sustainment, which is a quality of God the Sustainer, Al Qayyum.
In order for man to traverse a river a man must increase in the knowledge of flow.
Without Language Without Cultivation
No Civilization No Stabilization
Languages are the rivers upon which Man’s Civilizations are Stabilized
Al Hayy Al Qayyum
The Ever Living One is represented by flowing rivers and the stabilizer is represented by gardens.
[There is both stabilization and temporal flow in the mind of man as a reflection of God being Al Hayy Al Qayyum. (See the Blog “God = the Unknown Variable X Deduced from the Y of Time” Section “God as a Stabilizing Unchanging Point for all Consciousness and the correlation to Euclid’s Axiom of a point having 0 Dimensions”)]
The River of Memories / The Garden Stabilizer
The planning man, the language creating man, is the garden stabilizer
Stabilizing the temporal flowing reality through language
Attempting to fix the definitions of objects through the momentum of language
Position and Momentum
Particles and Waves
Momentum and Position
Waves and Particles
A River of words flows through the Garden of Objects
Attempting to Fix the Garden of Objects with Permanency
Eventually the River Overtakes the Objects
As the Reality of Man
Becomes a river of memories
A river of words
All the Objects of these Gardens wither away
In Paradise
These Rivers of Memories Nourish the Eternal Gardens
Is it not true that Thoughts become Actions?
Actions are Judged
Good actions result in beautiful gardens?
The foundations of the eternal gardens of paradise
Are laid upon the rivers of a temporal life lived well
In this world the Eternal is Hidden
Temporality is the apparent reality of this world
In this world the Eternal is the Foundation
In Paradise Temporality is Hidden
Eternity is the Apparent reality of Paradise
In Paradise the Temporal is the Foundation
The River of Memories that our lives become
Flow under the Gardens of Paradise
This temporal life is no small thing
Upon it lays Eternal life
If you have a bad day you can always have ice cream
This world is not Hell-fire
If you have a good day you can still get a headache
This world is not Paradise

Al Hayy Al Qayyum
The Kaleidoscopic Quality of the Nature of the I
From all sides I hear Evil, Weird, Genius,
From my perspective
I am none of those
At the same time
I am all of those
To all worlds I
appear different
An utterable thing
At the same time
I am Inconceivable
Unutterable king
Everything utterable
In men’s eyes
At the same time
Unutterable
Impossible to Surmise
This is the Kaleidoscopic Quality of the Nature of the I
Reality or Illusion?
Definable or Mystery?
I appear to be both
God and Creation
A mystery and a word
The Eternal One
And
The Changing Flowing God
Are Made 1 in Man
Through our bodies we experience most
flow and change
In our minds we experience most
stabilization and unity
In the forms of Mind Matrices such as Language
We taste a little bit of what eternity is like
Because languages outlive the generations
When the mind of man states “this is a tree”
It experiences a bit of eternity
“Tree” has many names in different tongues
Apparent multiplicity
Point to the “Tree” and everyone knows
What is being shown
The Unity cannot be uttered
We can only signify
The holy and mysterious
Once named
It is shrouded in Multiplicity
Sound is a movement
Through Multiplicity
The Unity of the Tree cannot be uttered
It is Holy and Mysterious
It is like I
A mystery and a word
At the same time
