Chart No. 1: The Vital Creative Flame

Deep, vital imbalance is the real cause which limits the flow of energy in the body. The mystery of the VITAL PROCESS began at the creation of the Universe, and at the time of conception and intra-uterine [intrauterine] life for the individual now on earth in a human form.

Certain bi-polar processes were set to work at the meeting of the male spermatozoon and of the female ovum, by the liberation of energy of two opposite actions. Energy threads wove forth and back, and attracted material from the mother's blood to build a body according to a definite pattern of the combined quality of the parents. BUT THE SOUL WHICH DESCENDED INTO THE NEUTER [neutral] FIELD AT THE TIME OF CONCEPTION, BROUGHT ITS OWN SOUL PATTERN OF EXPERIENCE OF WANDERINGS WITH IT, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER CHILDREN OF THE SAME PARENTS.

The shuttle of life threads flies forth and back in a ceaseless weaving until the temple of the soul is built. This includes a brain and nervous system, for the thinking process and for communication to all cells of the body for motion and sensory perception, to serve the mind as the agent of the soul, for its private wire telephone system. Also the circulatory system is built for the sustenance of the body and for growth and repairs.

This is another function of this mysterious Builder, the Vital Energy, which is the Sound and Light Current of the soul. It is most intelligent and wise enough to direct the lines of force and patterns of the body in the process of building, and it knows how to maintain and complete it by growth later on.

This Vital Master Builder, the 'Hiram Abiff' within, also designed the bones as the pillars of support and the roof as a sensitive skin to protect this vital structure. The organs of function were placed where they could perform best. Vital Energy, as the Creative Flame, was called 'Hiram Abiff', the Master Builder of the Temple of Solomon as the symbol of our body.^[1]

The lungs were designed by a net-type pattern of its own to attract energy from the air, and to filter the air from the outside for the oxygen in the blood, to be carried to all tissues. The chest is the airy space or oval made for this purpose.

The digestive system requires many organs to do the work of a kitchen and a stove to cook for these hosts of cell workers, like bees in a hive. It is of an earthy nature and sustains the body through solid foods and liquids. The fire of digestion operates in the body as does the fire in a stove, to cook food
