I was given a diagram which shows that
there are seven chains of a solar period - seven days of Brahma = One Solar Period
Monadic essence evolves through
1. elemental kingdom 1 Force Plane (H.Manas)
2. elemental kingdom 2 Force Plane (L.Manas)
3. elemental kingdom 3 Force Plane (Astral)
followed by Pralaya
4. 1st chain - Mineral kingdom through globes or planets A-B-C-D(OUR EARTH) E-F-G
followed by Pralaya
5. 1st chain - Vegetable kingdom through globes or planets A-B-C-D (OUR EARTH) E-F-G
6. 3rd chain - MOON CHAIN- Animal kingdom through globes or planets A-B-C-D (OUR EARTH) E-F-G
followed by PARTIAL Pralaya
7. 4th chain - EARTH CHAIN - Human Kingdom through globes or planets A-B-C-D (OUR EARTH) E-F-G - THAT IS 7 ROUNDS - 49 ROOT RACES
Followed by Pralaya and then on to a new chain
So some monads are 4th RR (7th subrace)
and/or 5th RR (1st subrace)
travelling on Planet Earth - through the 7th Round or Cycle of the Earth Chain sitting at 4.5 of the round or cycle of the richter scale!
and as we have now past the mid point of the 4th round (over half way aroundthe 7 cycles) all are on the first stages of the ark of return - 4.5 to 7 obviously is when we evolve to higher levels of consciousness.
FOR ANYONE WHO HAS AN INTEREST
4TH ROUND - IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE KAMA PRINCIPLE - RESULTING IN INTELLECT BEING OVERSHADOWED BY H.INTELLIGENCE
5TH ROUND TO COME - IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE BUDDHI-MANAS PRINCIPLE (PLATO)
6TH ROUND TO COME - IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE BUDDHI PRINCIPLE - MAN BECOMES A SPIRITUAL INTUITIONAL BEING
7TH ROUND TO COME - INSTANT PERCEPTION-OMNISCIENCE - MAN BECOMES AN ETHEREAL SPIRITUAL BEING - A DHYAN CHOHAN.
All marathon runners and laggards are catered for in this scheme with Monads precedING us in other cycles (the higher arc) and monads that are just beginning their evolution through the elemental kingdoms (the downward arc).
So now the numbers get tricky
Evolution on Globe D (Our earth) requires 44.0 million years - we are probably then sitting at say 22 million years past with 22 million years to go before next minor pralaya when earth will resemble our present moon.
I hope for my sake that these figures are coming from Master and not Besant !!
If anyone would like a copy of the diagrams I have I am sure she who gave it to me over 20 years ago will have no problem with my sharing - if I can technologically reproduce it by scanning and it is legible.

Cass,
My dictionary-- ----Websters New Collegiate 7th Ed.
"Hence"
1 From this place
a. specif-"from this world or life
2. a archaic : Henceforth b. from this time
3.: THEREFORE
4.: from this source or origin
So, is the Mahatma indicating the activity of descent and ascent throughout the rounds, globes root races, the 49 flames etc from this world - from this time -- from this source of origin by using the term "Hence"?
My personal opinion differs radically from the preoccupation in regard to the term "Race" found in the Mahatma Letters and Blavatsky and Sinnett. I seem to recall that HPB and/or the Mahatma's somewhere explained that it was a poor substitute used to communicate the reality of the Streams and evolutions of Consciousness itself which produce various distinct differentiations that characterize appearances of root, trunk, branch, stem and bud blossum and new seed that manisfests as Humanity
as secondary reality in and within the cycles of time ,consciousness, karmic manisfestation and fruition. In essence there are no racial denotations but only essential Consciousness in process towards realization of Original Nature in the Ocean of Beauty. "
Kunji namparshespa made up of the contributions of all of the namparshespa is in no way a mythical receptacle, but our own consciousness, the basis of the phenomenable world, the whole of our universe.
The river (in which the Arhats swim) with the current both continuous and discontinuos made up of the "seeds" is nothing else but our mind ( the individual and collective streams of consciousness that compose the Rounds, Globes etc.)
"The light of any lamp dispels in a moment the darkness of long aeons . The strong light of the mind in but a flash will burn the veil of ignorance" (The Song of Mahamudra)
Opps! I got carried away again! lol!

John

I could be wrong but I think 'hence' can also mean 'from that date'- dictionary says 'from here' - from now? So we don't know if Master was referring to here or now.

I cannt see, what you mean.
To me the term "hence" means "from now on" and not back into the past.

Just reread your post - do you think KH was referring to 16,000 years from 1898 when he wrote this. I get the idea that we should subtract 10,000 from 16,000
to get a date for the next one.????

Hi Cass,
you have intermixed it. Poseidonis was 10,000 years ago. Our racial fate, the turning point is in the future in 16,000 years, cp. SD II:330:
"He knows nothing, through exact Science, of what took place nearly 10,000 years ago; yet he may find consolation in the knowledge or -- if he so prefers -- speculation on the fate of every one of the modern nations he knows of -- about 16,000 years hence."
http://www.sacred- texts.com/ the/sd/sd2- 1-19.htm
So as HPB otherwise states that this turning point or racial cataclysm takes place in the middle of
each 4th sub-race, it is quite clear that Tingley, Fussell and de Purucker have the right interpretation of HPB's statements, while Besant, Leadbeater and Jinarajadasa have the wrong interpretation.

Frank,
I think that it is 16000 years from the sinking of Poseidon. This subject should be explored rather than argued on who is more accurate - I will happily admit I was wrong if I can get to the truth of it.

Dear Nigel,
in the same way you read HPB you may
also read the Holy Bible or the Lotus Sutra or the Bhagavad Gita.
To me you have not quoted her exactly, you just have given the letter, not the spirit.
It is only your mindset that you are under the illusion that HPB wrote what you think.
And you have not explained of which sub-race HPB in your quote speaks.
It seems you have no idea what esotericism is or what a blind is, alsthough HPB explained it several times and although HPB openly stated somewhere in the Secret Doctrine that all numbers and figures concerning cycles are not given openly.
Nowhere said any of HPB's Mahatmas that we are in the 5th sub-race as Besant did.
The reason is that the Mahatmas grasp the teachings they teach.
They know that -as HPB also wrote - that the middle point of the sub-race and their cataclysms come in 16,000 years from now.
That alone is sufficent alone for the thinking part of the theosophists to know in which sub-race we
are.
You seem not to consider that there is more knowledge as you have observed so far. That is Hinayana, while HPB served the Mahayana path.

Dear Frank
You write, "But you are free to have your own interpretation

Thank you. But I am merely quoting exactly what she has written
and do not see any "blinds" that you suggest. Moreover the quotes
from the Mahatmas appear to verify her statements.
