The
Law of Spiritual
Energy Force
I
find whatever God creates stands
unchanged, nothing can be added to it and nothing can be taken from it.
Mankind stands in awe of what God has created.
Most of you seem to assume that only the world of matter is subject to
laws. You are mistaken, because God
is a God of system and of law in all Creation, terrestrial or spiritual.
In His doings He observes the laws which He Himself made, and disregards
none of them.
Therefore, spirits too must observe the God-given laws of Nature whenever
they wish to communicate with the world of matter.
This is true of the good spirit world as well as of the evil.
You are in the habit of calling everything a "miracle", unless
you can bring it to conform with Nature's laws, as you know them.
For those familiar with the forces acting in the world of matter and in
the spirit world, there is no such thing as a "miracle", because
everything happens according to the same immutable laws, not one of which
supersedes nor conflicts with another.
If you raise a stone with your hand, the law of gravitation acting on the
stone is not thereby set aside, but is overcome by a greater force.
If however, a stone were raised by a hand invisible to you, you would
consider that a miracle because you do not see the force, and would think the
stone was rising of its own volition. And
yet a force that causes the stone to be lifted must be present in either case.
Whether or not you can see the force does not affect the operation
itself. In either case the force of
gravitation acting on the stone is overcome by a superior force.
In consequence of the laws enacted by His own omnipotence, God Himself
cannot make a stone raise itself by its own efforts.
He might have made the laws governing matter differently from what He
did, but having made them as they are, He must, even when only the lifting of a
stone is involved, permit the action of a force upon that stone greater than
that of gravitation.
The same thing is true in all fields, nor is there anything
"miraculous" in the fact that the spirit world should communicate and
speak with mankind. Whenever a good
spirit speaks to you through a medium it does so according to fixed laws which
it is bound to observe and which would have to be observed equally by any evil
spirit which might desire to speak through him.
Consider the mechanism of telephones.
How many of Nature's laws must be complied with before you can use these
for speaking. You must have a
current. Wires and other parts
required to transmit speech and adapted to the laws of acoustics and electricity
must be installed, and these laws apply, whether the instrument is used by a
good citizen or by a criminal.
In order that you may understand the things that you will witness in
connection with spirit communication, it is
essential that you learn the more important laws involved in the
communication between the spirit world and material Creation.
When you have grasped these, you will be able to understand most of what
you will encounter in this field, things for which you or even scientists have
not yet succeeded in finding an explanation.
I will now teach you the
truths concerning the Law of the Spiritual Energy Force.
Because of their different natures, spirit
and substance cannot react upon
each other directly. Not even your
own spirit is capable by itself of imparting activity to a limb or organ of your
body. You are not able to lift your
body erect, or to raise your hands, or to produce a sound from your organs of
speech by your own efforts. For the
purposes I have mentioned, your spirit, requires a power-current.
In a similar way, an engineer requires a constant supply of power
furnished by steam or electricity if his engine is to operate.
If that supply is lacking or is inadequate, his engine will stand still.
In your case it is the spirit which is the engineer and its' engine is
the body or the substance. If the
substance is to be set in motion by the spirit, a supply of power is necessary.
The knowledgeable people of
old called this power-current the soul as
distinguished from mankind's spirit and
from the mind and
body. Therefore, they taught,
quite correctly, that man is made up of spirit, mind, soul and body.
Knowledgeable people of today speak of the power-current in humans as the
"spiritual energy force".
This spiritual energy or vital force exists in and about all things
created by God. It
is found in every human being, in every animal, in every plant, in every stone,
in every mineral, in all water, in every star, in every spirit and in all other
existing things. It is nothing
material, but is spiritual and is always associated with a spirit.
It is the vital force of the spirit, which is always its conveyor.
Wherever there is life, there is this force, and wherever there is this
force, there also is a spirit. Since
this spiritual energy exists in and about all things created by God and is
always associated with a spirit, it follows that every created thing harbors a
spirit.
That may seem incredible to you, but it is true.
Any spirit associated with a material body possesses, first of all, the
spiritual energy force required for its own existence as a spirit, and next,
sufficient additional spiritual energy force to induce life, growth and activity
in the terrestrial body. To make
use of an adequate analogy, a steam locomotive requires a certain amount of
steam power to enable it to travel alone and a certain amount in addition to the
first to enable it to draw the train that is coupled to it.
The train coupled to your spirit is your body, for which your spirit
requires additional spiritual energy power to move it.
However, the spiritual energy allotted to the body differs from that
allotted to the spirit, since anything intended to react upon substance must be
assimilated and adapted to it to some extent, consequently, the spiritual energy
of the bodies of humans on Earth is less spiritual, or ethereal, than that of
the spirits inhabiting them.
The physical spiritual energy resembles your terrestrial power-currents,
which are neither purely material nor purely spiritual.
Their true nature is unknown to you although their effect comes within
range of your daily experience. For
your terrestrial power-currents you employ material conductors designed to carry
a current of the strength best suited to your needs.
You have machines and factories of all kinds whose operation requires
current of a certain strength. If
the current is too powerful, it will destroy your machine.
If it is too feeble, your factory will stop running.
In a like manner the spiritual energy current of all physical beings is
carried by a conductor through the body and all of its wonderful parts, which
are called organs, in a strength necessary for the purpose intended.
If that current exerts too powerful an effect on a given organ, it will
derange the same. If it is too
feeble, the functions of the organ cease. In
the case of spiritual energy the conductor is the blood. If the conductor is destroyed by loss or decomposition of
blood, the spiritual energy current ceases, just as your power-currents cease to
flow when your conducting wires are damaged by outside agencies or by
disintegration. As blood acts as
conductor for the spiritual energy, physical life without blood is impossible.
The physical spiritual energy is not created by the spirit of the
respective body, but is derived from the food taken into that body.
In order that you may understand what I will additionally say about
spiritual energy, I must give you an explanation of the nature of substance.
Have you ever thought of how the bodies of living organisms are
formed? Consider your own body and
its growth. Was it built up, by any
chance, by additions of finished substance, as a house is built by placing one
stone upon another? You know for yourself that it was not. The body is nothing but spiritual energy condensed into
substance and this is true of all bodies, not only those of human beings, but of
those of animals, plants and minerals. Their
growth and their taking material shape are subject to the same laws of spiritual
energy condensation.
The spiritual energy of individual material organisms represents a
mixture of spiritual energies of the most varied strength and kinds, produced by
wonderful laws unknown to you. In
mankind, this mixture is different from that found in animals, in animals,
different from that found in plants, and in plants, different from that found in
minerals. This difference is not
only between the primary groups of Nature, but between individual organisms
within the same group. Accordingly, the spiritual energy composition of the various
human races differs, that of the Black is not the same as that of the White or
of the Red, and again, the Brown and the Yellow differ from each other as well
as the rest. Also, not all members
of a particular race have the same spiritual energy composition.
Every individual has his or her spiritual energy composition, which is
not the same in any two human beings, and the same thing applies to beasts,
plants and minerals.
Since the physical structure of a living organism consists of the
condensation of the spiritual energy compound peculiar to that organism, each
body has its own individual properties. Flesh,
bones, nails, hair, and all other parts of the body have their distinctive
characteristics that are governed by the spiritual energy composition of the
individual in question.
To you it is one of Nature's deep secrets how it is possible for
spiritual energy, which exists in an ethereal form and is invisible to you, to
be condensed into tangible matter. The
fact that such things are possible you know from your own experience, because
you can see that your body does not grow by the direct application to it of
finished substances. You know that
the acorn does not grow into the oak by continued increments of wood attached to
its surface, but that its growth represents a process taking place within the
organism, although to you this process is inexplicable.
You know that the food that you eat does not attach itself to the inner
surfaces of your body and promote growth in that way, but that something grows
into all parts, great and small, of your entire frame, consolidating into flesh,
bone, nails, hair and other tissue and by this consolidating becomes substance.
That "something", which is unknown to you, is spiritual energy.
Where does this spiritual energy come from, which is so necessary for the
formation and support of all living beings?
You yourself know, if you stop to think, what the needs of your physical
existence are, you require air, water and food.
But not everything present in air, water or food can be utilized by the
body. Above all, not every
ingredient of these substances can be assimilated by the various parts of your
body in the shape in which it occurs in the air, the water or the food, that is
to say, not in the same material shape. Even
air is matter. Everything must
first be converted into an etherealized shape, and conducted in the form of
spiritual energy to the parts and particles of the body.
The conversion of the material forms of nourishment into spiritual energy
happens in your body during the process of digestion.
The air that you breathe represents a material mixture of spiritual
energy from which your lungs extract only those portions of the air that your
body requires, exhaling those that it cannot use, in the process of breathing.
Water also has a spiritual energy composition of its own.
The spiritual energy of water is that which is needed most of all by the
bodies of humans, animals and plants, because these are chiefly the condensed
products of the spiritual energy taken from water.
For that reason, water spiritual energy predominates in the foods derived
from the plant and animal kingdoms, so that when this food is taken into the
system, the necessary quantity of water spiritual energy is generally present
also. Owing to the fact that the
spiritual energy of water plays so important a role in all bodies, they cannot
go without it for any great length of time.
Professional fasters may be able to do without solid food for weeks on
end, but if they were deprived of water for more than a few days they would
quickly die. For the same reason
animals and plants perish when denied the spiritual energy of water for a
prolonged period.
Now you understand why the tortures of thirst are the greatest that any
living being can experience, they represent death in its most painful form.
The spiritual energy of the air does not enter into the structure of the
body to the same extent, but is used primarily to build up the various currents
which effect the disintegration of food and its conversion into spiritual
energy, to mix the various kinds of spiritual energy and to bring about their
ultimate condensation into matter. All
disintegration is caused by hot spiritual energy currents and all condensation
by cold ones. For this reason
you cannot live more than a few moments if deprived of the aerial spiritual
energy, because where this is absent, all other spiritual energy activity ceases
automatically.
There still remains to be answered the question, where does the spiritual
energy found in air, water and food come from?
It comes from the Earth, which as a heavenly body possesses a supply of
spiritual energy mixture and has the power to radiate this mixture that contains
every kind of spiritual energy required for the support of all life on Earth.
The terrestrial spiritual energy consists of the spiritual energy
peculiar to the Earth as a heavenly body and in addition to this the Earth
receives by radiation into its own spiritual energy mixture that of all other
heavenly bodies within range. Each
of these heavenly bodies has a specific spiritual energy peculiar to itself, of
a nature and composition not found in that of any other heavenly body.
According to the position of these heavenly bodies with respect to the
Earth, their spiritual energy radiation will be of a smaller or a greater effect
upon it, and since this position to each other changes every second, the
spiritual energy radiation sent by these bodies to the Earth, will vary
accordingly.
The mingling of the spiritual energy of the Earth with that of the
heavenly bodies around it is of the greatest importance to life and growth upon
Earth.
You must remember that every kind of spiritual energy possesses powers
peculiar to itself. To the extent then that an infant at the moment of its birth
is subjected to the influence of the spiritual energy of one or more heavenly
bodies, to that extent will the infant's own spiritual energy composition be
affected. At the time of birth,
before the first breath, this composition is still fairly neutral, but at that
instant of the first breath, it is given a fixed permanent trend by the
spiritual energy radiation and mixtures acting upon it.
If now a certain kind of spiritual energy represents the main component
of the whole, it will determine the infant's growth and development for all
time, and since the different kinds of spiritual energy produce each a
characteristic type of vitality, the characteristic of the predominant spiritual
energy component will give to the infant a definite individual physique and an
individual behavior.
Therefore, it is neither superstition nor idle fancy to assume that a
person's physical, mental and moral attributes can be foretold if the moment of
his first breath at birth is known. The
influence of the spiritual energy mixture of the heavenly bodies on your life
upon Earth, upon your vital energy, your character and your temperament, is much
greater than you realize. You
yourselves have a saying, "He was born under a lucky or an unlucky
star", which means that you are referring to the effect exerted by the
spiritual energy radiation of a heavenly body on living beings at the moment of
their birth.
All this is so closely related to the great questions of the fate of men
and women that I could not refrain entirely from speaking of it.
All bodies of terrestrial beings are condensed spiritual energy, derived
from the spiritual energy radiation of the Earth and that of its surrounding
heavenly bodies.
As you can clearly see, the
divine science of Astrology is very important in understanding your destiny.
I could write an interesting book on this subject, and in the future I
will, but in this book I will state a few important facts that will enable you
who are interested in Astrology to practice it correctly.
The truth of Astrology is based upon the fact that everything in our
Universe, in our galaxy, and in our solar system is connected through the
spiritual energy force emanating from each heavenly body.
Since each heavenly body has a different mixture of spiritual energy,
they all have individual characteristics, and produces an infinite number of
specific effects upon life on Earth, as well as all other surrounding, in range,
heavenly bodies. Through many
thousands of years wise men and women have observed the various celestial
configurations and recorded the effects that these produce in both the lives of
individuals, as well as destinies of nations.
Many different branches of Astrology have developed, including Natal,
Medical, Event, and Mundane or World Affairs Astrology.
Without a complete and
accurate astrological analysis it is impossible to understand yourself or your
destiny.
Other benefits of Astrology include discovering what your talents and
weakness are, understanding and having success in relationships, including
marriage and raising children harmoniously and spiritually correctly.
Although the astrological forces do not control your free will, they do
influence it greatly. So as you can see each lifetime on Earth is composed of a
combination of past life "karma", your divine destiny, which includes
your Astrological destiny, and your free will decisions.
One more thing I find necessary to say is that the Astrology practiced in
most countries in the Western Hemisphere contains many errors.
The most important mistake is in the drawing up of the chart used by
these western astrologers. Because
of the separation of Astronomy from Astrology in Europe by the Catholic Church
in the 1500's, the astrological charts used by western astrologers are
astronomically incorrect. Without
going into a lot of detail, the correct way to draw up an Astrological chart is
exactly the same way an astronomer would draw up a map of the heavenly bodies
for that particular time in question. Western
astrologers do not do this. The
Astrology that is practiced in India is the closest to the correct form; it is
called Vedic or Sidereal Astrology, but here too you will find mistakes, not in
the way the charts are drawn up, but in the way they are interpreted.
I call the correct form of Astrology, which I practice, Constellational
Astrology.
Now
back to my teaching concerning the spiritual energy force.
An example taken from Nature will illustrate to you the process of
disintegration and condensation.
