WIND, WORD, SPIRIT, MARUT, BREATH
Symbols of emanation, to which the forthpouring
from the Absolute is comparable. Otherwise, "Wind" is a symbol of
Spirit energizing on the mental plane.
"It is not the wind, but the Divine energy, that is regarded as
vitalising the germs which the Divine Word is about to call forth."
- T. K. CHEYNE, Origin of the Psalter, p. 322.
"And God made a wind to pass over the earth, and waters assuaged." -
GENESIS. viii. 1.
And the Divine power energises the mental vehicle of the soul, so
that the lower vehicles are again to be prepared for the
accommodation of the re-energised soul.
"In the Holy Scripture, by the rapidity and subtlety of the winds,
souls are used to be denoted, as it is spoken by the Psalmist of
God, Who walketh above the wings of the winds' (Ps. civ. 3), i.e.
Who passes above the virtues of souls.'" - ST. GREGORY, Morals on
the Book of Job, Vol. II. p. 399.
"The powerful operations and motions of God's Spirit, quickening or
reviving the heart toward God, are compared to the blowing of the
wind, JOHN iii. 8." - Cruden's Explanations, p. 369.
