JERRY: No, youwon't
find evolutionary development of
self-consciousness
anywhere in
Buddhism. To the contrary, Buddha taught that there
is no self,
let
alone self-consciousness.
He taught that these are dualistic terms that
are transcended in
non-duality. BTW, forms are "made" in the Great Outer
Abyss, the
third plane
downward in HPB's 7-planes model. There they
are called shistas.

Forgive me for "butting in but...."
Unless I am mistaken he
taught , The Gautama Buddha , nothing but
progressive cyclic
development through his giving his own "background" of
550 or so lifetimes
devoted to the Cause ie: NO-SELF or NOT-SELF , if you
will.
A
DIVINE pilgramage to say the least , but CYCLIC and KARMIC and DEIFIC in
its development. wherein he was in that IMMACULATE position of givingthe
DUAL TRUTH in all its GLORY and MAJESTY to those who could not fathomREAL
development , in other words , those who are and were enwrappedin
the short
term view of attainment and enlightenment were in
desparate need of
understanding the Law of karmic causation and cyclic
return.
DEITY and NO-SELF are identical , in this students mind.
