SUMMARY AND REVIEW
This summary gives you a comprehension of the primary points of the chapter in the
text. Fill in the brackets with words or phrases that complete the ideas.
1. "The Principles of knowing [ ] are Seven; those who know these possess the [ ] [ ]
to whose touch all locked Doors open to [ ]." -- Summum
2. These seven great Principles will be discussed and explained at length in this
work. A short explanation of each, however, will be given at this point, for all the
[ ] of Summum have an [ ] with each other.
3. "SUMMUM is MIND; the universe is a [ ] creation."

4. This first great Principle embodies the idea that "All is [ ]."
5. This living [ ] performs gastrulation, which is a turning of itself inside out,
manifesting its esoteric NATURE outwardly. Therefore, all the phenomenal
worlds and universes are simply a [ ] [ ] of SUMMUM (MIND) subject to the laws
of created things, and the universes, as a whole, and in their parts or units, have
their existence in the Mind of [ ].
6. "As above, so below; as below, so [ ]." -- Summum
7. Just as a knowledge of the principles of geometry empowers the astronomer to
measure distant suns and their movements while seated in an observatory, a
knowledge of the Principles of Correspondence empowers you to reason
intelligently from the known to the [ ].
8. "Nothing rests; everything moves; everything [ ]." -- Summum
9. This Principle embodies the idea that everything is in motion; everything [ ];
nothing is at rest; facts which science endorses and which each new scientific
discovery tends to verify.
10. "Everything is dual; everything has an opposing point; everything has its pair of
opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are [ ] in nature, but different
in degree; extremes bond; all truths are but [ ] truths; all paradoxes may be [ ]." -Summum
11. It explains that in everything there are two opposing points or opposite [ ]
(complementarity), and that opposites are really only the two extremes of the [ ]
event, with many [ ] degrees between them. To illustrate, "hot and cold," although
opposites, are really the same [ ], the differences consisting merely of degrees of
the same "[ ]."
12. "Everything flows out and in; everything has its season; all things rise and [ ]; the
pendulum swing expresses itself in everything; the measure of the swing to the
right is the measure of the swing to the [ ]; rhythm [ ]." -- Summum
13. All things "come in and out of [ ]" between the two opposing points which exist in
accordance with the Principle of Opposition described previously. There is
always an action and a [ ]; an [ ] and a retreat; a rising and a [ ]. This is in the
affairs of the [ ], suns, worlds, [ ], animals, mind, [ ], and matter.
14. "Every cause has its [ ]; every effect has its cause; everything happens according
to Law; [ ] is a name for Law not recognized; there are many fields of causation,
but nothing escapes the [ ] [ ] [ ]." -- Summum
15. This principle embodies the idea that there is a [ ] for every effect; and an [ ] from
every cause. It explains that "everything happens according to law"; that nothing
ever "merely happens"; that there is no such thing as [ ]; that while there are
various fields of cause and effect,the higher [ ] the lower fields, still nothing ever
entirely escapes the Law ([ ]).

16. "Gender is in everything; everything has its [ ] and [ ] principles; Gender
manifests on all levels." -- Summum
17. The NATURE of the [ ] of CREATION displays in this principle. This is a fact not
only of the physical level, but of the mental and even the [ ] levels. On the
physical levels the Principle presents itself as [ ]; on the higher levels it takes [ ]
forms, but the Principle is ever the same. No creation, physical, mental, or
spiritual, is [ ] without this Principle.
