Taikyoku

**Taikyoku**(太極, *taikyoku*) or **Taiji**, known in Dies Irae as **Atziluth**, or **Big Bang** (開闢, *kaibyaku*) in Kokubyaku no Avesta, is the beginning of all things, the root, original/first beginning, or beginning of all beginnings, Beyond all concepts, transcending even Duality.

It is the source of the power of both Hadou and Gudou Gods, though it existed even before the creation of the Throne.[*citation needed*] Taikyoku is primary in relation to any form of existence. Therefore, Taikyoku is the root of all things and phenomena.

Those who have attained Taikyoku are transcendent in relation to any form of existence, any form of information, any form of duality, any form of time-space, regardless of its complexity, or its size; for all concepts in the world are born from the Laws spun of Taikyoku, and it predates and is transcendent of, all such ideas and concepts. Existing beyond the sphere of human intellect.

## Nature

Taikyoku (Jpn: 太極 Chs: 太極 *Taiji*), meaning "Great Pole" or "Supreme Ultimate",  is the beginning of all things. It is the root, or beginning of all beginnings, the Primal Genesis of All Creation.

It is even the source of the Liangyi. Taikyoku is the "Supreme Ultimate"  state of limitless potential, the oneness before duality,

Atziluth is the emanation of the Soul, which lies beyond the limited dimensional framework of reality, representing a cosmic law which repaints all of reality for themselves, in accordance with the desire of the God itself.

### **Laws**

A Law that reaches the Level of Taikyoku becomes absolute. The entire universe becoming governed by it. If the Law of Water becomes Taikyoku, than the entire Universe would become like the bottom of the ocean.

This Water cannot evaporate or freeze, for it is a fundamental aspect of existence, and can only be overwritten by an even greater Law.

Consequently, this would remain Absolute, until another Law of Greater Strength overwrites it.

### **Atziluth-Tai**

The Law of the Throne. The wellspring from which all of the concepts that operate in the setting, the mechanics of the cosmology itself, flow from.

The Hadou God sitting upon the Throne define the Laws and Mechanics of the Universe. Thus each Heaven operates upon different mechanics.
In other words, it is an Absolute Law in the World, and refers to the Person who established such Rules.

### **Gods**

All those who have Taikyoku are like walking universes, and all an All-Encompassing Ultimate Reality. Without dependence upon physical dimensions. From an external and unenlightened point of view, one could say the Universe exists outside of them.

The more powerful the Soul (Atman) of the God, the larger and deeper their universe. This is not a literal sort of depth, as the concept of distance doesn't apply to things such as the Singularity, but it is more metaphorical, indicating a greater weight of existence.

One with Taikyoku Conquers All of Creation, for they become free from the Laws and limitations that once bound them, and are able to paint over all of creation with their own Law.  Their relation to reality as we know it is compared to that of fiction and reality, and how a depiction of a flame, no matter how great, can never harm a real human being.

## Values

The respective levels of Transcendence are displayed through a numerical system. Even having a value of One displays an indescribable level of transcendence to the plane of material existence, with each one being greater than the one below it to a substantial, if unknown degree.
