The Divine In Man

Man is of the earth, earthy. His physical sheath, the part of him that he pays the most attention to, is constructed of the elements found in the earth. Nothing of man's earthly vehicle contains anything that is Divine. It is a temporary emergency-order vehicle designed for a single purpose: to awaken that which is Divine in Man.

And what would that Divine part be? What part of our undivine earthly body possesses this Divine element? This question can be answered as follows: the Divine element is not a part of the physical body. It is the center of the microcosm, the container in which our mortal personality lives, moves and has it temporary being. This Divine part, the Spirit-Spark, the Rosebud, the Jewel in the Lotus is but a tiny atom. Yet this single atom is the key to unleashing the Divine in Man.

As will be repeated as often as necessary, humanity once lived and moved in the Divine realms, the Sixth Cosmic Domain. During that period, the Divine Atom was directly linked with Spirit. This enabled the microcsom to make use of many great powers, one of which was the power of self-realization: the microcosm could create a glorified personality at will, for use in the service of The All.

As the microcosm degenerated, moving further away from Spirit, it began to lose the powers granted to it by Spirit, including the power of self-realization. As man fell into the Cosmic Physical realm, the Seventh Cosmic Domain, the personality continued to crystallize. In order to provide fallen microcosms with the ability to generate new personalities, the agency of childbirth was introduced.

This temporary, emergency-order Divine Plan of Salvation was instituted for a single purpose: to assist the microcosm in generating a personality of a very high quality. One that would seek and find the method and the means to return to the realm from which it fell. In order to accomplish this, the Divine part must be attached to the undivine part. The Soul-Rose must be attached to the Cross of Matter. Once this re-linking has occurred, the radiations of the Spirit will be able to find their way into the microcosmic New Soul, where they will no longer be ignored, but will be taken up and circulated throughout all of the vehicles of the personality. A great transformation will then occur, a process of purification that will change the microcosm from undivine to Divine. Only then will that which is Divine consciously live once more in Man.
