However, the contrast* may help to distinguish +C†I~ from the Centre, even if words cannot describe it. The Sword is the method of turning at S~ and R~, avengers of God, and returning what has gone out from the One: cf. again** the Mandelbrot Set[:]

[The ms diagram here is rudimentary.]

It is almost as if, when the Separation has been pushed out from God (God the Father?), the Unification is what is left (God the Son?), with the Spirit at the Centre still infusing all (God the Holy Ghost?). All things continually go out from and return to God at +C†I~: this is the Unifying Principle of the Sword. As unity, it is still distinguishable from the Union at the Centre, God the One, the Spirit, which is.***

The situation is, of course, tremendously complicated by the influence of everything upon each other.**** But I have noticed that one effect of this analysis (over many months) is to emphasise that God the Spirit, not God the Father, is the essence of the Trinity; God the Son is 'closer' to the Spirit. 'I have come not to bring peace, but a Sword.'#
