QUALB Provides: Any point on the surface of the Spherical-Time-Matrix contains the Qualb-Code. Every human in the 22 Sibling Universes has an immediate, (in time), and a direct, (in space), access to the Qualb-Code. This is known as QUALB provides. Qualb-Code, The: The Code of QUALB, according to which the whole Creation is being continuously created, unfolded, evolved, of QUALB’s own free will and the free will of the human race. The Qualb-Code is the “mediator” between the Time-world and the Timeless-world; the “mediator” between the living and nonliving human beings. The Qualb-Code is the substratum of the Spherical Time-Matrix. QUALB-Lucifer Clash: The clash ensued some 50 millennia ago. Lucifer suggested to QUALB the Giver, the SUPREME BEING, to switch Atlantis Universe to a completely free-will mode and offered self to be the sole guardian of such a free-willed Atlantis Universe. In such a universe, Lucifer would work independently from QUALB, so that QUALB could focus His work on other issues in Atlantis Universe. Satan and Belial, the human beings of the code-11 from Atlantis Continent, and Leviathan, a human of the code-11 from Lemuria Continent, seconded Lucifer’s proposal. As a result, QUALB down-codes Lucifer from the code-13 down to code-11, and revokes Lucifer’s post as the Master Guardian of the Creation.
