	Note that, from a set of three, there are 8 ways that they can be
expressed (none of the above, or the "null set" must be included). If
you ignore the null, then you have seven left. Now consider the phrase,
"Naught was" in the first of the verses of Dzyan, and consider it as a
positive rather than negative statement; it is my belief that the clue
to the missing principle lies in there.
