In the beginning that was no beginning, there was nothing but the Self. And the Self at a moment that was no moment said, "I". And as soon as it thought, "I," it experienced fear. Then it reasoned, "since there is nothing else in the world, what do I have to be afraid of?" That eliminated fear. No sooner was the fear eliminated than it had desire: "I wish there were another." In that state of being a wish is as good as a fact. The Self swelled up and split in half, and there were two. This is how Black and White came to be.
