August 16th 1998

I just sent a posting to theos-talk in answer to a query from "Sutratma".

AN ERROR HAS CREPT IN

I meant to say we are at present on GLOBE D  --  GLOBE D of the 4th ROUND

If we refer to HPB's diagram in SD Vol. I  p,. 200 it is the lowest of the
globes on the lift side, and corresponds to the Kabalistic MALKUTH on the
right hand side.

=====================================

Looking closely at that diagram we see :


Globe  D        is on the"4th plane"  THE PHYSICAL MATERIAL WORLD
                    and so too, is MALKUTH.

Globes  C  and  E        are paired on the "3rd plane"  THE SUBSTANTIAL OR
                                    FORMATIVE WORLD  ---  YESOD

Globes  B  and  F        are paired on the "2nd plane"  THE INTELLECTUAL OR
                                    CREATIVE WORLD     ---   TEPHEREH

                                  I note that HED  and  NETZAH    seem to be
halfway
                                    between the two planes and share in both

Globes  A  and  G        are paired on the 1st plane  THE ARCHETYPAL WORLD
                                    GEBURAH  and  CHESED correspond

Above these is the outline of a triangle that encompasses 3 numbered planes.
HPB says of them:  "THE THREE HIGHER PLANES OF THE SEPTENARY
        KOSMOS.  THE DIVINE AND FORMLESS WORLD OF SPIRIT (Arupa)
        "where form ceases to exist, on the objective plane."

The following references may prove of interest:

SD  I  267, 434  II 759

SD I  205fn, 435, 232-3, 242, 574fn,

SD II 92, 300, 318fn, 593, 697, 701, 759.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
