1angelic world; and diffuses its violet aromas within the spaces that are divine. As we perceive this fact; we instantiy comprehend the grand connection of the whole universe. MAN stands upon the central rung of the cyclic ladder, as the meeting point of the equilibrium, between the upper and the lower manifestations, of the great ONE LIFE. In MAN lies concealed the sacred mystery of the lost word. He is the wonderful microcosm. By his duplex action of body and soul, he be¬ comes the grand conservator; the generator; and the radiator; of spiritual and material life forces; first, absorbing the currents of the life wave, then separating it into its triune qualities; retaining one, then re-polarizing and transmitting the grosser portions, in the form of an astro-magnetic fluid, to the planes of life below; and reflecting, from the mirror of his soul, in the form of an astro-spiritual essence, the finer and more ethereal portions, to the realms above. What awful and unsuspected mysteries lie concealed within our being! Verily, no mind can grasp all the mysteries of man.
2Reader, the oceans of purified life essence; forming these spiral zones of the interior heavens; which extend from the celestial worlds to the earth; from the angels to man; and then, in a grosser form, extend to our planet’s very center; is the mystical chain of the great one life; that unites man to all below him and binds him to the immortal realms of life above. It is the spiral cycle of necessity traversed by the life atoms; in their descent into matter, and in their ascent into the realms of conscious spiritual existence. It is the spiral cord of Nature whose vibrations, throughout the wide universe of manifested being, proclaim the unbroken union between the soul and the stars. The same yesterday, to-day and for evermore. The mysteries of man are the mysteries of God, and who can solve them here on earth? The soul answereth, “none.” So be it. In conclusion, we will only add that as a child of God, or the crystallization of force; as a spiritual entity, or a thing of dust; man’s birth-right is ever the same; a progressive conscious immor¬ tality. He is the sustainer of the universes below, of which even oc¬ cultists have scarcely dreamed, and he is the generator of the essences which sustain the life of myriads in brighter worlds than ours.
