When lightning issues from the East, it is also precisely the moment that I begin to utter My words; when the lightning issues, all the heavens are illuminated, and a transformation occurs in all the stars. The entire human race is as if it had undergone a purging. Under the glow of this shaft of light from the East, all humans are revealed in their original forms, their eyes dazzled, unsure what to do, and less sure still how to conceal their ugly features. All humans are astounded, all are waiting, all are watching; all feel lucky for the day they were born with the advent of My light, and likewise all curse the day they were born. Conflicting emotions are hard to articulate; tears of self-reproach form rivers.

Once again, My day presses close upon all humanity, once again arousing the human race, giving humanity another new beginning. My heart swells and the mountains leap in rhythmic, joyful accompaniment, the waters dance with joy, and the waves beat upon the rocky reefs. It's difficult to express what is in My heart. I shall make all unclean things burn into ashes under My gaze; I shall make all the sons of rebellion disappear from before My eyes, never more to tarry in existence. Not only have I made a new beginning in the abode of the great red dragon, I have also embarked on new work in the universe. Soon, the kingdoms of the earth will become My kingdom; soon, the kingdoms of the earth will forever cease to exist because of My kingdom, because I have already achieved victory, because I have returned triumphant.
