The basic purpose - the kingdom of souls. The akasha - vegetable kingdom the fluid conscious life. Ascension out of matter - animal kingdom the evolutionary goal of the relation between body and akasha. Power to travel in space - human kingdom the goal of the human consciousness through the realization of the above three. It is the goal of the evolving consciousness which I seek to make clear.
Science can handle with skill and insight the evolution of form.
I have here made a basic and synthetic statement which needs grasping. Those whose consciousness is expanding out of the human to the egoic will follow my reasoning with a measure of facility. Two rays govern each kingdom in nature, except in the case of the vegetable kingdom, where three rays indicate the nature of that kingdom's life. After the third initiation, the disciple has three rays active in him, for the ray of the Monad begins then to make its presence felt. An analogous condition is found in all the kingdoms in nature.
