LHM: The planar diagram described above (as a figure 8 inscribed in a 
circle) is simply the 2-dimensional symbolic representation of the first 
triple circle formation of the ray initially emanating from the primal 
zero-point center on only one axes of the subsequent triple axes spherical 
form that eventually evolves. Since the zero point spinergy also turns in all 
angular directions simultaneously, the ray, when manifest, as it repeats its 
repetitive triple cycle path (passing twice through the central zero-point of 
origin over and over again) will wind completely around each of the triple 
spheres in a spiraling pattern much like a thread winds over the surface of a 
ball of yarn. 

In other words, due to this triple axis polar spin (related to the 6 
directions of 3 dimensional space) the initial ray winds itself around the 
outer spherical surface as well as the twin inner spherical surfaces by 
eternally repeating its three cycle vertical path while the central point 
also spins in its horizontal directions. The initial eternal angular motional 
energy, or spinergy, even though non-polar in itself (having zero dimensions) 
actually is spinning in several angular directions simultaneously. Thus, when 
this nonlinear spin throws off its linear ray upon initial manifestation and 
generates the triple cycle based form, the central zero-point's nonlinear, 
non polar spin directions resolve into spherical surface rotations on three 
polar axes at right angles to each other. 

Since the inner Buddhi-Manas spheres are enclosed within the outer Atma 
sphere (thus, coadunate with it) and their spherical surfaces are connected 
with their inside-outside and their outside-inside, much like the single 
surface of a two dimensional mobius strip or a 3 dimensional klien bottle -- 
to picture this winding of the ray around the triple spherical surfaces is 
extremely difficult. We might, however, visualize this continuous path 
3-dimensionally, as being the surfaces of two transparent bubbles enclosed 
within an outer transparent bubble -- whose combined surfaces are connected 
to each other through their three zero points of contact -- where the rays 
cross over from one sphere to another on their endless spiral path.

The linear geometric form that can be inscribed within the triple sphere 
structure is the octahedron or diamond, that has four upper triangular sides 
or quadrants and four lower triangular sides, as well as three polar axes at 
right angles to each other -- with six outer points and four square bases 
crossing through their centers at right angles to each other. This 
corresponds to the outer spherical field of the initial monadic form that has 
four upper and four lower quadrants formed between the three rotational axes 
at right angles to each other. HPB noted this correspondence in her 
reference to the "Diamond Heart." (I'm sure you will have the page 
references.) Incidentally, when looked at transparently from different 
points of view, all two dimensional mystical symbols can be projected from 
this diamond shape and the shape of the triune spherical monad.

(LHM) When considering the discussion of the triune form of the initial 
monad and their coenergetic relationships, this view of three spheres as a 
kind of pyramid inside another sphere is illogical from both a scientific and 
an objective geometric point of view. (Although, in some diagrams of the 
Sephirothal or Brahmanic tree the three top emanations or spheres are 
sometimes shown in a triangular form surrounded by a circle that symbolically 
represents their unity.) 

However, in our scientific (geometric) view, the descending energy spheres at 
each stage of differentiation from one plane to the next must involve 
analogously and correspondingly in the form of a triune group of coadunate 
spheres (2 in 1) as described above... In this progression, each inner 
sphere would have its own central zero-point -- which, in turn, generates a 
continuously repetitive three cycle energy flow of increased substantiality 
and lesser energy that forms the next inner or lower triune monad. Imagine 
this descending process progressing in accord with the simultaneous 
involutional growth, from the center outward and the top down, as 
symbolically pictured in the primal energy field (cross sectional) diagram at:

Note the correspondences to all the sacred numbers and geometry's as well as 
the theosophical fields of consciousness, chakras, koshas, worlds, etc. In 
the first stage of triune monadic field involution there are three spheres (2 
inner and 1 outer) . In the second stage there are seven spheres (6 inner 
and 1 outer). And in the third stage, there are fifteen spheres (14 inner 
and 1 outer). See the zero points of conjunction between one field and 
another as Chakra points as well as centers of consciousness. Also, the 
pyramid structure is expressed by the inscribed diamond (double pyramid) form 
that has the same geometric correspondences to the spherical form of the 
monad and its inscribed dual fields. In addition, if we consider all three 
axes of spin in each monadic sphere, there would be 7 zero points of contact 
with adjacent fields in each of the three worlds. This corresponds to the 
center and six outer points of the inscribed diamond form.

Because of this essential trinity of primal structure along with the unity of 
origin -- we might say that the "DIVINE TETRAKTYS" would be better considered 
as; The sum of (A) the essential triple nature of the initial unmanifest 
"spinergy" representing the three worlds of Matter (that, in its 
potentiality of emanating the spherical triune monadic forms, can involve and 
evolve into infinite circumferences surrounding inner and outer spherical 
coadunate and coenergetic fields that are "nowhere") -- added to (B) the 
primal "zero-point center" representing Spirit or consciousness (that, even 
after manifestation remains dimensionless, coincident and coextensive and, 
therefore, is "everywhere,"). 

Note that even though we have attempted to picture the spheres as if they 
were actually 3-dimensional physical bubbles within bubbles within bubbles, 
this too, is only a metaphorical or symbolic representation -- since the 
universal space is both physical and nonphysical, and the different fields 
representing the 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 stages or planes of initial involution 
are all on different levels or dimensions of consciousness, as well as at 
different degrees, phases or spectrums of frequency and energy, and thus, 
immeasurable and non illustratable in ordinary physical terms. 

I hope you find this more or less scientific view of the involution of fields 
of consciousness (starting with the universal Monad) consistent with the 
teachings of cosmogenesis in the SD.
