RIPPLES

There is a ripple in the universe when a person is born.
 
There is a larger ripple when a person subsequently becomes something, becomes a priest, for example. 

It does not matter that the something, including the priesthood, is relative to the manifested world, that outside the manifested world it does not exist.
 
There is an even larger ripple when a person ceases to be something, stops being a priest, in this instance, as an act of purification.
