In the very beginning of time.

Coming from the Book "Conversations with God" you make your own interpretations about this:

In the beginning, that which 'Is' is all there was, and nothing else. Yet All That Is could not know itself-because All That Is is all there was, and there was 'Nothing' else. And so All That Is..was not. For the absence of something else. All That Is, is not. This is the great Is/Not which mystics referred to sense the beginning of time. Now All That is KNEW it was all there was-but this was not enough, for it could only know its utter magnificence conceptually, not experientially. Yet the experience of itself of itslef is that which was longed, for it wanted to know what it felt like to be so magnificent. Still, this was impossible, because, because the very term "magnificent" is a relative term. All That Is could not know what it 'felt' like to be magnificent unless that which is not showed up. In the absence of that which is not, that which IS, is not. The one thing that All Which Is knew is that there was nothing else. And so It could, and would, never know itself from a reference point outside itself. Such a point did not exist. Only one reference point existed, and that was a single place within. This, "Is-Not-Is." The Am-Not-Am. Still, the All of Everything choose to know Itslef experientially. This energy-this pure, unseen,m unheard, unobserved, and therefore unknown-by-anyone-else energy-chose to experience Itself as the utter magnificence It was. In order to do this, it realized It would have to use a reference point WITHIN.

It reasoned, quite correctly, that any portion of Itself would necessarily have to be LESS THAN THE WHOLE, and that if It thus simply DIVIDED Itself into portions, each portions, being less than the whole, could look back on the rest of Itself and see the magnificence. And so All That Is divided Itself-becoming, in one glorious moment, that which is THIS, and that which is THAT. For the first time, THIS and THAT existed, quite apart from each other. And still, both existed simultaneously. As did all that was NEITHER.
Thus three ELEMENTS suddenly existed: That which is HERE. That Which is THERE. And that which is neither HERE NOR THERE-BUT WHICH MUST EXIST FOR HERE AND THERE TO EXIST. It is the nothing which holds the everything. It is the non-space which holds the space. It is the all which holds the part.he space. It is the all which holds the part.
