THE WORD "substantiate" is an expression of Creation. It is so comprehensive that the human spirit as a particle of Creation will never be able to get a right conception of it.

As the counterpart of substantiate the expression "Unsubstantiate" is named. Less than ever can man imagine what is the meaning of Unsubstantiate. He will always have a confused idea of it, because it is something which must perpetually remain an enigma to him. He cannot even form a conception of it, because there exists no form for Unsubstantiate that comes within the understanding of the human spirit.

However, in order to bring you at least a little closer to an understanding I will for once substitute earthly expressions for the expressions of Creation, although these can only be considered the vaguest shadow in comparison to the reality.

For substantiate imagine dependent, and for Unsubstantiate that which alone is independent.

According to human thought this gives you the best possibility to approach the matter objectively, although it can neither render nor designate that which it really is, or how it is; for you would always be unable to comprehend the "what", whereas in this way you can at least approximately envisage the "how" to yourselves.

The Unsubstantiate is therefore that which alone is independent, while all else is dependent upon it in every respect and is thus called substantiate, of which latter everything that is spiritual is also a part and likewise everything that is Divine, whereas the Unsubstantiate is only God.
