Dear Peter:

Thank you for these excellent references.

Separately I had been working on the concept presented in SECRET
DOCTRINE (sent below & separately)

Dallas
---------------------------------------

SOURCE OF THE SPIRIT IN MAN


"...The Host of Dhyanis, whose turn it was to incarnate as the Egos of
the immortal, but, on this plane, senseless monads--that some "obeyed"
(the law of evolution) immediately when the men of the 3rd Race became
physiologically and physically ready, i.e., when they had separated into
sexes. These were those early conscious Beings who, now adding
conscious knowledge and will to their inherent Divine purity, created by
Kriyasakti the semi-Divine man, who became the seed on earth for future
adepts. Those, on the other hand, who, jealous of their intellectual
freedom (unfettered as it then was by the bonds of matter), said:--"We
can choose...we have wisdom,"...and incarnated far later--these had
their first Karmic punishment prepared for them. They got bodies
(physiologically) inferior to their astral models, because their chhayas
had belonged to progenitors of an inferior degree in the 7 classes. As
to those "Sons of Wisdom" who had "deferred" their incarnation till the
4th Race, which was already tainted (physiologically) with sin and
impurity, they produced a terrible cause, the Karmic result of which
weighs on them to this day...the bodies they had to inform had become
defiled through their own procrastination...This was the "Fall of the
angels," because of their rebellion against Karmic Law. The "fall of
man" was no fall, for he was irresponsible..."	SD II 228



"...the "Ah-hi" pass through all the planes, beginning to manifest on
the third. Like all other Hierarchies, on the highest plane they are
arupa, i.e., formless, bodiless, without any substance, mere breaths.
On the second plane, they first approach to Rupa, or form. On the
third, they become Manasa-putras, those who become incarnated in man.
With every plane they reach they are called by different names--there is
a continual differentiation of their original homogeneous substance; we
call it substance, although in reality it is no substance of which we
can conceive. Later they become Rupa--ethereal forms."
TRANSACTIONS p. 23-4


"The adepts can control the sensations and alter the conditions of the
physical and astral bodies of other persona not adepts; he can also
govern and employ, as he chooses, the spirits of the elements. He
cannot control the immortal spirit of any human being, living or dead,
for all such spirits are alike sparks of the Divine Essence, and not
subject to any foreign domination."	ISIS II 590



THE ETERNAL MAN


"...the true esoteric meaning is that most of them (the Agnishwatta
Pitris) were destined to incarnate as the Egos of the forthcoming crop
of Mankind. The human Ego is neither Atman nor Buddhi, but the higher
Manas; the intellectual fruition and the efflorescence of the
intellectual self-conscious Egotism--in the higher spiritual sense. The
ancient works refer to it as Karana Sarira on the plane of the Sutratma,
which is the golden thread on which, like beads, the various
personalities of this higher Ego are strung...these beings were
returning Nirvanees, from preceding Maha-Manvantaras--ages of
incalculable duration..."	
	
SD II 79

"...from the Sun to the vital heat of the meanest organic being--the
world of Form and Existence is an immense chain, whose links are all
connected."	SD I 604



EVOLUTION OF THE IMMORTAL MAN


"It is the Spiritual evolution of the inner, immortal man that forms the
fundamental tenet in the Occult Sciences...the ONE Universal Life,
independent of matter...and...the individual intelligences that animate
the various manifestations of this Principle...The ONE Life is closely
related to the one law which governs the World of Being--KARMA."  
SD I 634


		
INTELLIGENCE INNATE TO ALL FORMS


"The essential faculty possessed by all the cosmic and terrestrial
elements, of generating within themselves a regular and harmonious
series of results, a concatenation of causes and effects is an
irrefutable proof that they are either animated by an extra or intra
INTELLIGENCE, or conceal such within or behind the manifested
veil...Newton...recognized fully the limits that separate the action of
natural Forces from that of the INTELLIGENCES that set the innumerable
laws into order and action... To become complete and comprehensible, a
cosmological theory has to start with a primordial Substance diffused
throughout boundless Space, of an intellectual and divine Nature. That
substance must be the Soul and Spirit, the Synthesis and 7th Principle
of the manifested Kosmos, and to serve as a spiritual Upadhi to this,
there must be the 6th, its vehicle--primordial physical matter...though
its nature must for ever escape our limited normal senses."
SD I 594




"CREATION" and the "CREATORS"


"...as the work of each Round is said to be apportioned to a different
group of so-called "Creators" or "Architects," so is that of every
globe; i.e., it is under the supervision and guidance of special
"Builders" and "Watchers"--the various Dhyan-Chohans...It becomes the
task of the 5th Hierarchy--the mysterious beings that preside over the
constellation Capricornus, Makara, or "Crocodile" in India as in
Egypt--to inform the empty and ethereal animal form and make of it a
Rational Man...Many are those among the Spiritual Entities, who have
incarnated bodily in man, since the beginning of his appearance, and
who, for all that, still exist as independently as they did before, in
the infinitudes of Space....the invisible Entity may be bodily present
on earth without abandoning, however, its status and functions in the
supersensuous regions..."	SD I 233



UNIVERSAL EVOLUTION


"Every Spiritual Individuality has a gigantic evolutionary journey to
perform, a tremendous gyratory progress to accomplish. First--at the
very beginning of the great Mahamanvanataric rotation, from first to
last of the man-bearing "planets," as on each of them, the monad has to
pass through the seven successive races of man...up to the present fifth
race, or rather variety, and through two more races, before he has done
with this one. Each of the 7 races send 7 ramifying branchlets from the
Parent Branch: and through each of these in turn man has to evolute
before he passes on to the next higher race; and that--seven
times...The branchlets typify varying specimens of humanity --
physically and spiritually--and no one of us can miss one single rung of
the ladder...when I say "man," I mean a human being of our type. There
are other and innumerable manvantaric chains of globes bearing
intelligent beings--both in and out of our solar system--the crowns or
apexes of evolutionary being in their respective chains,
some--physically and intellectually--lower, others immeasurably higher
than the man of our chain..."	
MAHAT. LET. 119

 

MONADIC and EGOIC INNATE SENSE OF FREEDOM


"The philosophy of that law in Nature, which implants in man as well as
in every beast a passionate, inherent, and instinctive desire for
freedom and self-guidance, pertains to psychology...	
Perhaps the best synthesis of this feeling is found in three lines of
Milton's Paradise Lost. Says the "Fallen One":--

"Here we may reign secure; and in my choice,
To reign is worth ambition, though in hell !
Better to reign in hell than serve in heaven ..."

Better be man, the crown of terrestrial production and king over its
opus operatum, than be lost among the will-less spiritual Hosts in
Heaven...the dogma of the first Fall rested on a few verses in
Revelation...about the seven-headed dragon with his 10 horns and 7
crowns, whose tail (485) "drew the third part of the stars of heaven,
and did cast them to the earth," and whose place, with that of his
angels, "was found no more in heaven." ... The "Dragon" is simply the
symbol of the cycle and of the "Sons of Manvantaric Eternity," who had
descended on earth during a certain epoch of its formative period...The
"third part of the stars of heaven" cast down to earth--refers to the
divine Monads, (the Spirits of the Stars in Astrology) that
circumambulate our globe; i.e., the human Egos destined to perform the
whole cycle of incarnations...In all ancient cosmogonies light comes
from darkness. (486) In Egypt...Pymander, the "Thought divine," issues
as light from Darkness."       
SD II 484-6


		
FIRST STEPS IN MANIFESTATION AND EVOLUTION


"Matter or substance is septenary within our World, as it is so beyond
it. Moreover, each of its states or principles is graduated into seven
degrees of density."	S D I 289


"It is that LIGHT which condenses into the forms of the "Lords of
Being"--the first and highest of which are, collectively JIVATMA or
Pratyagatma (GLOS. 261 - ALAYA)...From these downwards--formed from the
ever consolidating waves of that light, which becomes on the objective
plane gross matter--proceed the numerous hierarchies of the Creative
Forces, some formless, others having their own distinctive form."
SD II 33-4

 
"Having sprung into being under the quickening influence of the
uncreated beam, the reflection of the great Central Sun that radiates on
the shores of the river of Life, it is the inner principle in them [the
Beings of Hierarchies] which belong to the waters of immortality, while
its differentiated clothing is as perishable as man's body."	SD I
275-6


"The hosts of these Sons of Light and "Mind-born Sons" of the first
manifested Ray of the UNKNOWN ALL, are the very root of spiritual man."
SD I 106


"...an absolute consciousness, "Adi-Buddhi"; and the Buddhist
philosopher knows that there are Planetary Spirits, the "Dhyan
Chohans."... If the Dhyan Chohans and all the invisible Beings--the
Seven Centres and their direct Emanations, the minor centres of
Energy--are the direct reflex of the ONE LIGHT, yet men are far removed
from these, since the whole of the visible Kosmos consists of
"self-produced beings, the creatures of Karma." ... they teach that only
"two things are (objectively) eternal, namely Akasa and Nirvana;" and
that these are ONE in reality, and but a maya when divided."
SD I 635-6



PLANETARY POWERS AND SPIRITS


"...to the eye of the Seer, the higher Planetary Powers appear under two
aspects: the subjective--as influences--, and the objective--as mystic
FORMS, which under Karmic law, become a Presence, Spirit and Matter
being ONE, ... Spirit is matter on the seventh plane; matter is
Spirit--on the lowest point of its cyclic activity; and both -- are
MAYA."	SD I 633


"The Planetary Spirits are the informing spirits of the Stars in
general, and of the Planets especially. They rule the destinies of men
who are all born under one or other of their constellations; the 2nd and
3rd groups pertaining t other systems have the same functions, and all
rule various departments of Nature...guardian deities who preside over
the 8 points of the compass...Loka-Palas...the Lipika...are the Spirits
of the Universe, whereas the Builders are only our own planetary
deities. The former belong to the most occult portion of
Cosmogenesis...the Lipika are connected with Karma--being its direct
Recorders...the Lipika are concerned with Humanity's hereafter."
SD I 128, 126



FINAL INITIATION


"Every Buddha meets at his last initiation all the great adepts who
reached Buddhahood during the preceding ages...every class of adepts has
its own bond of spiritual communion which knits them together...The only
possible and effectual way of entering into such brotherhood...is by
bringing oneself within the influence of the Spiritual light which
radiates from one's own Logos...such communion is only possible between
persons whose souls derive their life and sustenance from the same
divine RAY, and that, as seven distinct rays radiate from the 'Central
Spiritual Sun,' all adepts and Dhyan Chohans are divisible into 7
classes, each of which is guided, controlled, and overshadowed by one of
the 7 forms or manifestations of the divine wisdom."	
(S. Rao quoted - THEOSOPHIST, AUG. 1886) SD I 574


 
SEVEN-FOLD GROUP OF DHYAN CHOHANS - 
WATCHERS OVER
EVOLUTION


"There are 7 chief groups of such Dhyan Chohans...the primeval SEVEN
Rays. Humanity, occultism teaches, is divided into 7 distinct groups
and their sub-divisions, mental, spiritual, and physical (fn) ...(FN)
Hence the 7 chief planets, the spheres of the indwelling 7 spirits,
under each of which is born one of the human groups which is guided and
influenced thereby. There are only 7 planets (specially connected with
this earth), and 12 houses...countless...each of which varieties is born
under one of the 7 planets and one of the said countless planetary
combinations."	SD I 573 & fn


"...'the MIND'...the collective body of Dhyan Chohans, we say--began to
work upon and communicated to it motion and order..."	SD I 595


"The hosts of these Sons of Light and "Mind-born Sons" of the first
manifested Ray of the UNKNOWN ALL, are the very root of spiritual man."
SD I 106
	

"...the 7 wise ones (rays of wisdom, Dhyanis) fashion 7 paths (or lines
as also Races in another sense)...they are primarily beams of light
falling on the paths leading to wisdom...the 7 Rays which fall free from
the macrocosmic centre, the 7 principles in the metaphysical, the 7
Races in the physical sense."	SD II 191 fn


"It is then the "Seven Sons of Light"--called after their planets (by
the rabble) often identified with them--namely Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury,
Mars, Venus...the Sun and Moon, which are...our heavenly Parents, or
"Father," synthetically...the 4 exoteric planets, and the 3
others...were the heavenly bodies in direct astral and psychic
communication with the Earth its Guides, and Watchers--morally and
physically...their "Regents" or Rectors with our Monads and spiritual
faculties."	SD I 575


"The 7 Beings in the Sun are the 7 Holy Ones, Self-born from the
inherent power in the matrix of Mother substance. it is they who send
the 7 Principal Forces, called rays, which at the beginning of Pralaya
will center into 7 new Suns for the next Manvantara. The energy from
which they spring into conscious existence in every Sun, is what some
people call Vishnu (fn) which is the Breath of ABSOLUTENESS. (FN) In
the same manner as a man approaches a mirror placed upon a stand,
beholds in it his own image, so the energy or reflection of Vishnu (the
Sun) is never disjointed but remains in the Sun as in a mirror that is
there stationed."(Vishnu Purana)	SD I 290




THE MAHATMA IS THE HIGHER MANAS --
INSEPARABLE FROM THE ATMA


"The real Mahatma is then not his physical body but that higher Manas
which is inseparably linked to the Atma and its vehicle (6th principle)
-- a union effected by him in a comparatively very short period by
passing through the self-evolution laid down by the Occult Philosophy."
HPB ART I 293




MASTERS AND ADEPTS ARE EVERYWHERE: --

HISTORICALLY & NOW


"There are scattered throughout the world, a handful of thoughtful and
solitary students, who pass their lives in obscurity, far from the
rumors of the world, studying the great problems of the physical and
spiritual universes. They have their secret records in which are
preserved the fruits of the scholastic labors of the long line of
recluses whose successors they are. The knowledge of their early
ancestors, the sages of India, Babylon, Nineveh, and the imperial
Thebes; the legends and traditions commented upon by the masters of
Solon, Pythagoras, and Plato, in the (558) marble halls of Heliopolis
and Sais; traditions which in their days, already seemed to hardly
glimmer from behind the foggy curtain of the past;--all this, and much
more, is recorded on indestructible parchment, and passed with jealous
care from one adept to another. These men believe the story of Atlantis
to be no fable...In those submerged temples and libraries the
archaeologist would find, could he but explore them, the materials for
filling the gaps that now exist in what we imagine is history."	ISIS I
557-558;


"KUMARAS" -- THE CUSTODIANS OF THE MYSTERIES -
THE UNDYING RACE


"Alone a handful of primitive men -- in whom the spark of divine Wisdom
burnt bright, and only strengthened in its intensity as it got dimmer
and dimmer with every age in those who turned it to bad
purposes--remained the elect custodians of the Mysteries revealed to
mankind by the divine Teachers. There were those among them, who
remained in their Kumaric condition from the beginning; and tradition
whispers, what the secret teachings affirm, namely, that these Elect
were the germs of a Hierarchy which never died since that period:--

"The inner man of the first * * * only changes his body from time to
time; he is ever the same, knowing neither rest nor Nirvana, spurning
Devachan and remaining constantly on Earth for the salvation of mankind
..." "Out of the seven virgin-men (Kumara) four sacrificed themselves
for the sins of the world and the instruction of (282) the ignorant, to
remain till the end of the present Manvantara. Though unseen, they are
ever present. When people say of one of them, "He is dead;" behold,
he is alive and under another form. These are the Head, the Heart, the
Soul, and the Seed of undying knowledge (Gnyana). Thou shalt never
speak, O Lanoo, of these great ones (Maha...) before a multitude,
mentioning them by their names. The wise alone will understand."
(Catechism of the Inner Schools.)	SD II 281-2



"...the early sub-races had evolved an intermediate race in which...the
higher Dhyan Chohans had incarnated. ( fn.) This is the "undying race"
as it is called in Esotericism, and exoterically the fruitless
generation of the first progeny of Daksha, who curses Narada, the divine
Rishi ... by saying "Be born in the womb; there shall not be a resting
place for thee in all these regions;" after this Narada, the
representative of that race of fruitless ascetics, is said, as soon as
he dies in one body, to be reborn in another."	SD II 275 - fn


"Happily for the human race the "Elect Race" had already become the
vehicle of incarnation for the (intellectually and spiritually) highest
Dhyanis before Humanity had become quite material. When the last
sub-races...of the 3rd Race had perished with the great Lemurian
Continent, "the seeds of the Trinity of Wisdom" had already acquired the
secret of immortality on Earth, that gift which allows the same great
personality to step ad libitum from one worn-out body into another."
SD II 276


"...there exists a power which can create human forms--ready-made
sheaths for the "conscious monads" or Nirmanakayas of past Manvantaras
to incarnate within ... (653) a living Entity consolidating the astral
body with surrounding materials..." SD II
652-3



INSTRUCTORS OF MANKIND


"...the doctrine, well-known in India, of the reappearance of
Avatars...all admit that the true doctrine is stated by Krishna [see
above]. These appearances among men for the purpose of restoring the
equilibrium are not the same as the rule of Vivaswata and Manu first
spoken of, but are the coming to earth of Avatars or Saviors. That
there is a periodicity to them is stated in the words "from age to age."
He is here speaking of the great cycles about which hitherto the Masters
have been silent except to say that there are such great cycles. It is
very generally admitted now that the cyclic law is of the highest
importance in (107) the consideration of evolution and Man's destiny.
But the coming of an Avatar must be strictly in accordance with natural
law,--and that law demands that at the time of such an event there also
appears a being who represents the other pole--, for, as Krishna says,
the great law of the two opposites is eternally present it the world.
So we find in the history of India that, when Krishna appeared so long
ago, there was also a great tyrant, a black magician named Kansa, whose
wickedness has reached a maximum development. The real meaning of this
is that the bad Karma of the world goes on increasing with the lapse of
ages, producing at last a creature who is, so to say, the very flower of
all the wickedness of the past, counting from the last preceding Avatar.
He is not only wicked, but also wise, with magic powers of awful scope,
for magic is not alone the heritage of the good. The number of
magicians developed among the nations at such a time is very great, but
one towers above them all, making the rest pay tribute...[this is] a
sober truth, and the present prevalence of self-seeking (108) and
money-getting is exactly the sort of training of certain qualities that
black magicians will exemplify in ages to come. The Krishna--or
howsoever named--appears "in visible shape, a man with men." His power
is as great as the evil one, but he has on his side what the others have
not--spirit, preservative, conservative forces. With these he is able
to engage in conflict with the black magicians, and in it he is assisted
by all of us who are really devoted to Brotherhood. The result is a
victory for the good and destruction for the wicked. The latter lose
all chance of salvation in that Manwantara, and are precipitated to the
lower planes, on which they emerge at the beginning of the next new
creation...He also declares that the right and full comprehension of the
mystery of his births and work on earth confers upon us Nirvana, so that
rebirth occurs no more. This is because it is not possible for a man to
understand the (109) mystery unless he has completely liberated himself
from the chains of passion and acquired entire concentration. He has
learned to look beneath the shell of appearances that deceives the
unthinking mind."		
WQJ -- GITA NOTES, pp. 106-109


"There are 4 grades of initiation mentioned in exoteric works...in
Sanskrit as "Scrotapanna," "Sagardagan," "Anagamin," and "Arhan"--the 4
paths to Nirvana, in this, our 4th Round, bearing the same
appellations...Three further grades have to be conquered by the Arhan
who would reach the apex of the ladder of Arhatship. There are those
who have reached it even in this 5th race of ours, but the faculties
necessary for the attainment of these higher (207) grades will be fully
developed in the average ascetic only at the end of this Root-Race, and
in the 6th and 7th. Thus there will always be Initiates and the Profane
till the end of this minor Manvantara, the present life-cycle. The
Arhats of the "fire-mist" of the 7th rung are but one remove from the
Root-Base of their Hierarchy--the highest on Earth, and our Terrestrial
chain...a name..."the ever-living human-Banyan." This "Wondrous Being"
descended from a "high region," they say, in the early part of the 3rd
Age, before the separation of the sexes of the 3rd Race."
SD I 206-7
 


EARLY MANKIND -- THE NURSERY FOR FUTURE HUMAN ADEPTS


"This 3rd Race is sometimes called collectively "the Sons of Passive
Yoga," i.e., it was produced unconsciously by the 2nd Race...In the
first or earlier portion of the existence of this 3rd race, while it was
yet in its state of purity, the "Sons of Wisdom," who, as will be seen,
incarnated in this 3rd Race, produced by Kriyasakti a progeny called the
"Sons of Ad" or "of the Fire-Mist," the "sons of Will and Yoga," etc.
They were a conscious production, as a portion of the race was already
animated with the divine spark of spiritual, superior intelligence. It
was not a Race, this progeny. It was at first a wondrous Being, called
the "Initiator," and after him a group of semi-divine and semi-human
beings. "Set apart" in Archaic genesis for certain purposes, they are
those in whom are said to have incarnated the highest Dhyanis, "Munis
and Rishis from previous Manvantaras"--to form the nursery for future
human adepts, on this earth and during the present cycle. These "Sons
of Will and Yoga" born, so to speak, in an immaculate way, remained, it
is explained, entirely apart from the rest of mankind."	SD I 206-7



"GREAT SACRIFICE" -- THE GRAND MASTER of all ADEPTS


"The "Being" just referred to, which has to remain nameless, is the Tree
from which, in subsequent ages, all the great historically known Sages
and Hierophants, such as the Rishi Kapila, Hermes, Enoch, Orpheus, etc.,
etc., have branched off. As objective man, he is the mysterious (to the
profane--the ever invisible) yet ever present Personage about whom
legends are rife in the East, especially among the Occultists and the
students of the Sacred Science. It is he who changes form, yet remains
ever the same. And it is he again who holds spiritual sway over the
(208) initiated Adepts throughout the whole world. He is, as said, the
"Nameless One" who has so many names, and yet whose names and whose very
nature are unknown. He is the "Initiator," called the "Great
Sacrifice." For sitting at the threshold of LIGHT, he looks into it
from within the circle of Darkness, which he will not cross; nor will
he quit his post till the last day of this life-cycle. Why...Because
the lonely, sore-footed pilgrims on their way back to their home are
never sure to the last moment of not losing their way in this limitless
desert of illusion and matter called Earth-Life. Because he would fain
show the way to that region of freedom and light, from which he is a
voluntary exile himself, to every prisoner who has succeeded in
liberating himself from the bonds of flesh and illusion. Because, in
short, he has sacrificed himself for the sake of mankind, though but a
few Elect may profit by the Great Sacrifice.

"It is under the direct, silent guidance of this MAHA --(great) -- GURU
that all the other less divine Teachers and instructors of mankind
became, from the first awakening of human consciousness, the guides of
early Humanity. It is through these "Sons of God" that infant humanity
got its first notions of all the arts and sciences, as well as of
spiritual knowledge; and it is they who have laid the first
foundation-stone of those ancient civilizations that puzzle so sorely
our modern generation of students and scholars."	SD II
207-8

Hi 'Pham',

As I understand it the incarnating Ego whom we refer to as Gautama, or
Prince Siddartha ATTAINED the state of Buddhahood. The Master KH
states
this to be the highest form of Adeptship man can hope for on this
planet.
(See Mahatma Letter, No. 18)

However, at the same time one might also say that such a being was
overshadowed by a Dhyani-Buddha that dwells 'within'. The Secret
Doctrine
affirms that each of us has such a guiding star (a Dhyani-Buddha, Star
Angel) within us. But whether this is a "guiding or simply presiding
'Angel'" depends on our own spiritual efforts.   

On page 572 onwards in the Secret Doctrine, vol 1, we read...

"The Adepts have each their Dhyani-Buddha, their elder or 'twin soul'...
it
is only at the last and supreme initiation, however, that they learn it
when
placed face to face with the bright image." (SD I 573)

Furthemore, these Dhyani-Buddhas are said to be overshadowed in turn by
one
or another of the seven forms or manifestations of the divine Wisdom
(p574)
which radiate from the Central Spiritual Sun.  

It may well be that in the case of the Buddha (Gautama) and each of the
principle Buddhas associated one with each Root Race there is an
intimate
relationship between the ego which attains Buddhahood, its own
Dhyani-Buddha
(Star Angel) and one of overshadowing forms of divine Wisdom associated
with
that Root Race, or Round. The three aligning together to provide a
specific
spiritual impetus to humanity as a whole at a particular stage in the
cycle
of rounds and races.

It is possible that any exceptionally pure soul, just by its very
purity,
may be actively overshadowed during incarnation by its own Dhyani-Buddha
within. Does this mean it is the vehicle of Maitreya-Buddha? Not
necessarily, and probably very unlikely as this is one of the seven
forms of
divine Wisdom associated with Root Races to come.

regards,

Peter

Hi all,
Please clarify the issue about Gautama Buddha. Is he using the Body of
Prince Shiddharta to preach the Wisdom Truth, or Siddharta in fact has
been
attained the Buddha enlightement himself ? Per Occult Law, the
Boddhisattva
is no longer required to be born into a new physical body in order to
serve
and attain the Buddha level. An good example is that Christ(or Maitreya)
has
been borrowing Jesus body to preach in the last 3 years. Recently on
some
occasion, he has been using J.K 's.
