Physically, it could very well be expressed as "x-rays" and/or other high
energy radiation like "ultra violet," "alpha," "beta," and "gamma" rays,
which were mostly unknown by science at the time of WQJ. But, then, there
are also rays from the Sun's Astral field and higher mental fields that also
can effect us. But, when such rays are transmuted to their lower energy
physical nature, they become the destructive or beneficial radiation's that
science can detect, measure and name.
X-rays and ultra violet rays, which we can easily produce on earth, can cause
destruction (cancer, radiation burns, etc.) as well as constructively heal,
mutate genes (beneficially or not), and be used to diagnose disease. Lasers
generated out of those same high energy radiation's can be deadly weapons, as
well as useful industrial, communication and surgical tools. These "effects"
are just what Judge is describing as the "physical" attributes of the Sun's
occult rays spoken about in the Upanishads and other ancient scriptures.
So, as Solomon said, and HPB confirmed, "There's nothing new under the Sun."
Everything that science has discovered about primal energies, and come to
generate, control, and use today, both for our benefit or our harm, has
always been known to the Ancients. Even today's new theories of
Superstring/M-branes, which synthesizes formerly contradictory "relativity"
and "quantum" physics is nothing more that an indirect explanation in
symbolic mathematical and scientific terms of what every great Master of
Wisdom has always known intuitively (directly) since the beginning of time.
The roots of all these new theories, and even the newer refinements of them
to come, as well as, ultimately, the final "Theory of Everything" that
science is on the verge of attaining -- is fully explained in the Secret
Doctrine -- when read with proper discernment and awakened intuition.
As HPB predicted, science is getting closer and closer to theosophy's total
vindication. The book, "The Elegant Universe" by Brian Greene, as well as my
theory of ABC, which incorporates the same underlying scientific theories he
speaks of, shows that we are one step away from that final merger of modern
science with pure theosophy. When that happens and becomes universal
knowledge through the mass media, we will finally have our opportunity to
really "spread broadcast" the fundamental theosophical teachings, along with
their (then) scientifically verified moral and ethical precepts... And,
thereby, awaken the minds of the entire Human Race to recognize the
scientific basis of karma and reincarnation and the essentiality (as laws of
Nature) of "Universal Brotherhood" and the practice of altruism... That is,
if we are to successfully and smoothly progress to the next stage of human
evolution in the shortest time possible.
