We still know far too little about the details of protein chemistry to be able to understand how the introduction of a heavy virus molecule into a living cell induces its protoplasm to break down according to the new pattern established by this molecule, but the idea is not incompatible with what has already been learned about enzymal action. Dr. Geo. A. Baitsell, of Yale University, who carried out extensive X-ray studies, claims that living matter was found to be crystalline. To Dr. Baitsell the evidence points conclusively to a principle of uniformity in all nature, which has hitherto been lacking. The biologist has regarded the world of life as being unique in its structural characteristics, but the x-ray shows crystals in everything and basic uniformity everywhere. And thus toward Theosophy.
Inexorable logic is with the universalist school.
In the end, Universal Life will have to be admitted. The unconscious manufacture of elusive appearances will go on just as long as their pursuit continues. Back to text. Back to text. Back to text.
