The factor of infinity is activated in consciousness only when the point of reference is shifted to the top row of the matrix, identified in Appendix A16 as level D.  Once this is done, and the link becomes active that causes reflection of reality to occur, through which the confrontational environments that include anarchy and disease, become invalidated, or deactivated.  Figure 3 shows the new elements in the type D structure, (one of which is health) and the deactivated confrontational elements placed beside it as a default that takes over when the factor of infinity becomes lost.

Note, the resulting new structure (type D) is once again made up of two environments.  Except these environments are not confrontational.  There is an unmanifest environment that comprises the top four elements on each side on the matrix, and by reflection, a manifest environment beneath it which bears out the character of the unmanifest environment.  The type D environment is a unified structure.  Both environments are active simultaneously.  The remnant of the old structure remains invalidated, though not ignored.  Figure 4 shows both halves of the new matrix together as a unit.

The mechanism for finding definitions for the new elements created by reflection, labeled "Manifest," has eluded this writer for a long time, so that the the new elements were largely left undefined.  Then it became recognized that the 'creation' story of Genesis 1, including the first verse of Genesis 2 represent a complete 32 segment structure for spiritual discovery.  When the 32 segments are mapped onto the 16 element matrix as shown in figure 5 in Appendix A16, a definition is given to the new reflected elements through discoveries in ancient times and through Mary Baker Eddy's interpretation of these ancient elements in her textbook chapter Genesis.  The mapping has been done in the manner that a platform might be related.  In this case, we have a platform of stages discovery.  This is, indeed, what Genesis 1 functionally represents: a platform of stages of discovery, beginning with the most profound element, the coming to terms with the concept of God, of something greater than oneself, and ending with the self-discovery of man and the completeness of creation, or the universe, or reality.  Not unexpectedly, the thus defined new elements of the matrix conform fully with the characteristics for interrelationship within the matrix, that had been established earlier.

This mapping of the creation-discovery structure onto the matrix has also a second benefit.  It brings together the river "Euphrates" from the matrix of Appendix A6 with the two lights in the creation-discovery structure.  As was pointed out extensively in Volume 3, Mary Baker Eddy's definition for Euphrates presents a type of Science (divine Science) that deals with finity and limitation in human thought, and thus raises the human platform to the level of the infinite.  With this definition Mary Baker Eddy presents quite a different type of Science, than Christian Science that deals with materialism and earth-bound erroneous concepts, which it corrects.  Divine Science, as represented by Euphrates, confronts the errors of limitation and finity and interfaces consciousness with infinity or reality.  By this process, divine Science actually drives consciousness beyond itself, to the level of the absolute.  Here, the transition is created into the type D domain (Appendix A16, Figure 1).  With this new point of reference established the reflection begins.

When this reflection begins, not surprisingly, the part of the creation-discovery structure that deals with the discovery of man as created in the likeness and image of God (verses 26, 27) comes to light at the element positions that had previously defined conservatism and anarchy in the confrontational structure.  Thus, the true discovery of man, by accepting infinity as a fundamental factor, vacates the idea of conservatism and anarchy.  In order to enable further research on this interrelationship to the creation-discovery structure, Mary Baker Eddy' exegesis for Genesis 1, and 2:1 are included at the end of the book.
