Mind and Its Origin

The soul or spirit, as a unit, receives its fine energy from an Inner Source or Sun, the same as our visible sun supplies all creation with its natural functioning energy in the form of 'Prana'.

Matter is the pole at the most remote distance away from the Source of energy. It is the end of its travel or cycle. Crystallization of energy produces matter, as its vibrations slow down; it is a precipitate or exhaustion of energy.

The mind is the medium of function between spirit and matter. When it is ruled by the soul or spirit, it is a healthy mind and is functioning properly. But when mind allows the senses to rule, then matter predominates and there can be no peace of mind under such conditions.

Energy, as it flows from its concentrated Prime Source, becomes slowed down in its speed and vibratory activity, inversely to the square of the distance that it is separated from its Pole of Radiation.^[1] In this manner, even Spirit Energy is slowed down and creates various densities or stratas of energy fields, called planes.

Spirit Energy, in its descent from Spirit to matter, creates a field or neutral pole in the middle of its travel, that partakes of the nature of both poles. And it is the mind which is this neuter pole. This mind, which is slowed-down Spirit Energy, becomes the functioning factor or positive pole which rules the negative pole of matter. It connects with Spirit, but rules matter everywhere as long as it does not become attached to the material things through desire, lust, anger, greed, pride, etc. It is the secret of the created universe of forms and patterns. He who can control his own mind in its entire fields of function, can control the universe.

RULE: All opposites have an intermediary which partakes of the nature of both; like mind, reaches half way to the polarity of Spirit Energy, and rules everything below that level.

SOURCE: Even as Spirit Energy precipitated all creation below it out of itself, so does Mind condense and solidify its energy as various stratas of energy, and finally becomes exhausted and precipitates as matter. By this process it is of the same nature and substance as the created forms; and, being a finer energy itself, it can readily flow in and through all parts of it and control and direct all action and functions of patterns and forms. This is the secret of Mind and its rulership of all created things.
