rays
[aka Strahlen] The nerves of Schreber's god are known as rays when they are used for a worldy purpose. They can be used to create any kind of worldy entity; by the people on earth any such action by god is experienced as a wonder. Rays are not emitted to earth directly by god but transmitted by the sun. Rays consist of the souls which used to be a part of the front courts of heaven. |
