Re: creation of animals ?


Dear Friends:

As far as I have learned from Theosophy, there is a great distinction
between the SPIRIT or the SOUL that animates a being (be it an atom, a
molecule, a cell, a large group of cells as in a constructed 'body,' a
human being, an earth, or a galaxy, or a number of galaxies extending
to the infinitudes of what we think we know of SPACE) and its many
cooperating and interactive forms.

Note well that what we call hard matter (forms) are discovered to be
in essence very dense electro-magnetic fields of enormous strength --
but essentially they are SPACE as the distances (at their level)
between the components of even "physical atoms" is huge .

So "Matter" is really a special kind of specially condensed SPACE.
[ The February 2003 (I believe) issue of NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE
illustrates in theory the possible formation of a Universe out of the
initial chaotic matter made available (called the BIG BANG) for this
purpose when, as The SECRET DOCTRINE teaches, the "Great Being" awakes
again from its own 'nightly sleep' of Pralaya. ( See Vol. I SECRET
DOCTRINE )

Is "spirit" less or more than "SPACE" ? Is SPACE not filled with
Monads or Spirit/Matter entities eternally conjoined ? Are we, as
intelligence and consciousness, not one of those Monads ? Do we not
cooperate with others, and do we not expect Nature to cooperate and
support us in life? How are we due such consideration?

It is the difference between the degree of wisdom that a "central
intelligence" (the Universal Spirit, or its assistants) has, {and
knows how to execute (fairly and justly) for the benefit of all
components it is responsible for} and the forms that it uses. But
whatever may be the case or the need, the Law of Karma is not, and
cannot be violated. It is immutable.

Let us ask ourselves: what may be the most fundamental and basic law
of life in the Universe?

To me it seems to be: The one fundamental Law of our Universe is
cooperation. It is UNITY. It is BROTHERHOOD.

The action of KARMA as the universal Law is to rehabilitate, to
educate, to let the creator of evil feel the evil when unleashed upon
himself, and thus learn to ask: "Why am I afflicted? How is it
possible for this to happen to me? is a primary concept we need to
mentally review to see if it is valid. Is it the "missing link" in
our education?

Why do we persist in trying to do evil (when we know it is so) and
hope to evade a just response? How can we witness or hear of the
maiming and torture of thousands and not sense their pain? Where did
we develop those moral calluses? How have we succeeded in becoming
deaf to the inner voice -- the VOICE OF CONSCIENCE? Can it be
reasoned away? If not, then what is it?

The motive for any "made" thing, depends on the selfishness or the
universality of the purpose of the "creator" or "inventor." It is the
"good or bad" factor that is of primary importance. No one who
"creates" -- a writer, perhaps, or an actor on the stage -- can escape
the results of what is described to others. But then, each has to
investigate these things for themselves, and arrive at sensible
answers for themselves. The rules of logic are common to all -- as is
also WISDOM -- which we share.

We are told that the laws of Nature are alike for the "good" and the
"evil" doer. The motive alone forces Karma to act, and Nature to
eventually react on the source (the creator or inventor). And this
depends entirely on whether the new thing is of benefit to man, or a
means for torture, deprivation or death -- those are things which we
ought by now, as a species, to have firmly under our consideration.
It is a matter of Earth-wide consideration of universal ecology. We
ought to be able to ask ourselves if we would personally torture or
kill those 'faceless' men, women and children that are 'different."
For those of us who eat meat: Would we go out into the slaughter
houses and then into the meat packing plants and kill and prepare the
meat for ourselves -- with any degree of pleasure or indifference ?

The arbitrary political and national barriers, and divisions designed
and imposed by men's agreements and treaties are no longer valid --
disease like air, or the rain clouds, pass everywhere -- and there are
many kinds of disease -- the most potent being those thoughts and
feeling, which invisible, stultify and dull the conscience of
mankind -- as for instance, the consequences of the "mighty" forcing
their way upon the weak. Is this not reprehensible at any point, and
to any degree.

On a one to one basis, lets ask ourselves: Who loves bullies? Who
admires a strong man beating into insensibility (or death) a weaker
one? Shall we call such an event cowardice? Who dispenses death and
destruction, violence and torture, from a position of personal
invulnerability? Is that a kind of cowardice? When these forces are
in use, are we to admire them?

These are the real foundational points to be considered and discussed.
Again, these matters are to be answered, each one to themselves. The
Lower self -- Kama-Manas, is accountable to BUDDHI the Wise SELF in
each of us. We have to discover what our "Lower-Self" really is like.
Then see if we really "like" it. Would we permit a person with that
kind of "Lower-Self" to have charge of us?

History hints that Paracelsus was able to created "servants" called
"HOMUNCULI" -- but exactly what they were is not clear -- a kind of
intelligent, but soulless, 'servant.' A reference to the INDEX to
ISIS UNVEILED [ I - 135, 465, 485, ] gives some information on this.
[see also S D II 120, 349, 376, H P B Articles II, pp. 262, 337
(U L T Edn.).

Also in the S D we are told that Sages at a certain stage of wisdom
are able to create the kind of physical forms into which they can
incarnate to deal with things on this plane of matter that we call
ours. A reference to this (the undying race) may be found in the
INDEX to The SECRET DOCTRINE [ see S D I 207; S D II 275fn,
376, 531, 652-3 ]

Certainly this kind of "creation is not to be done with mechanisms and
tools derived from our kind of materials ( Look at the difficulties
the biological labs have with "cloning. ) The "creation" would be
handled by control of the astral matter needed and under Karmic laws.

The 'mad-scientists" (read "Black Magicians") of historied Atlantis
abused a knowledge they had of astral manipulation and created it is
reputed a kind of semi-conscious servant type. (It sounds somewhat
like the remote controlled "drones" now used in aerial warfare.) We
now have the capability of extending our senses to such a device, via
"radio waves" of certain frequencies, to receive and respond to what
is seen by the 'servant' device. And then to cause it to respond. The
"form" may in no way resemble a human form in such cases.

See if this may be of use,

Best wishes,

Dallas

Subject: [bn-study] Re: After Creation ?

I just wonder how many 'animals' have been created by man, as I
understand
it was never the 'divine plan', the animal kingdom. in Atlantis, the
mad
scientist created flesh forms, animal, forcing the nature elementals
into
physical bodies..anima=animation. any comments?
