The Absolute as the supreme, unconditioned, infinite, immutable and perfect prime origin, having its ground, cause and source of existence in itself, cannot be characterized by a series, even the extremely meaningfully loaded concepts.
It can be represented only with the help of a system of complementary bundles of essential attributes that are related to a balanced generating matrix.
These universal attributes of the Absolute constitute the initial pattern of the prime meanings. Their various combinations, represented as elements of the original matrix, serve as the basic principles of various oriental and Western religious and philosophical systems.
In this case, any holistic theory and original concept that confirms its understanding of the Absolute either denies it or implicitly contains it.
By itself, the Absolute is fundamentally indestructible, like a sunspot on the wall, as the centre of a circle that is always present, even if it is not indicated graphically.
