and spiritual. There can be but three
in which all that exist are In, viz. :
First, below man; second, on the hu-
man plane; third, above both the for
mer, up through which all evolving en-
titles coursed their way. Generally
speaking, then, the physical line cor
responds to planes below the human ;
the mental to that plane, anG the spiri-
tual to all planes above. All below man
will inevitably evolve to that stage, and
all above man have already passed
dividual entity, evolved up through all
elemental kingdoms OF nature, and it is
destined to career through all higher
kingdoms as q tireless traveller oil the
eternities.
In consonance with an universal sep
tenary law of nature humanity is divided
into seven great root races. Each root
race 10 divided into seven sub-races, and
each SUFFRAGE Is further divided into
seven branch races, which latter are
split up into nations, communities and
families.
Each individual has his predominant
characteristic, which allies him to one
OF the root races and to each of it's sub
divisions. Man has, therefore, his HER
archial star which overshadows him
throughout all great evolutionary peri
DDS. This relates to that true astrology
which was with the sncients q science,
but which is almost entirely lost to mod
erns, and largely counterfeited by char
latans for mere money making. Each
race has its color, odor and rate OF mon
tai vibration. distinguishable by the
adept, NO matter what appearances
may be.
Physical man began evolution ON our
planet 300, 1000, 900 years ago. The first
race were mere shadows, as were all
contemporary forms. whether OF the
mineral. vegetable or animal, for man
and nature progrens pari pasEu. Per-
petuation WAS by isBion, as now seen in
the division into two parts of the homo
genous speck Of protoplasm, known as
moneron.
The second race psrpetuated itself by
budding. A small part of the parent
structure swelled out at the surface,
finally parted company and grew to the
size of the original structure, as seen in
many vegetables ana the sea anemone.
The third was the most complicated
and mysterious Of all the races. Up to
It's midpoint perpetuation was by pro.
cess similar to that of spores. A single
cell was thrown off by the parent or
ganism which developed into multi.
cellular organism, reproducing the fea-
lures OF the latter, as do bacteria and
moHses.
Up to this point bodies where spher-
oidal in form. During the latter half of
this race bodies gradually assumed form
similar to the present human body, but
colossal in size. This is the origin of
the saying, There were giants in those
days"
1t was at this point, 100000 years
ago, when the physical body of man
WAS perfected. that the Ego, the Soul,
the Thinker. came to this earth from
other planets, took up residence in
intelligence. Before that event he was
possessed OF only brute intelligence,
passions and instincts.
The Egos, the Thinkers, are sexless,
or rather bi-sexual. and during the first
part OF the second half of this race ex-
listed hermaphrodites.
During the latter part, however, diff.
fe.entiation into male and female forms
took place.
Language of our tongue developed,
taught by planetary beings, who, then
and now, constitute the guardians and
parted knowledge of agriculture, archi-
lecture, the arts and sciences, astronomy
and mathematics. The uses and values
of wheat and FIRE we're taught, the mys-
FERROUS origin and qualities OF which
modern scientists are in such darkness.
These high beings are referred to in
our Bible as the kings OF Eden; as the
dynasty Of kings by the Egyptians; as
the gods, goddesses and Titans, by the
Grecisns; as the Dhyan Chorans. by
the secret doctrine. The adopts and
mahatnas Of theosophy are their dencen-
dants.
The fourth race, the Atlantean, sprang
from the Lemurian, and gradually de-
creased in stature.
1t utilized the knowledge OF its pre-
deeessor, which decended to it. The At
lantesns became mighty race OF build
ers and warriors, skilled in all the arts
and sciences, and were adopts in the
knowledge and use of many forces of
nature now lost to us. But they fall in
| to black magic, as the use of power for
selfish purposes is called, and were des-
troyed rs q race by immense cataclysms
and commissions of nature. Their con-
tinent was submerged 100000 years
ago during the miocene period of geol-
ogy. To the submergence of the Allan
team continent. which now lies beneath
the ocean of that name, may be traced
all the legends of deluges found in our
own and the many Bibles Of other
peoples.
The fifth root race 10 our own the Aryan.
1t had its origin in the saved remnants
OF the Atlantean. and though 1000 900
years old, has scarcely begun it's course
Each root race has an age extending
over vast periods of time, and each one
of ourselves lived and evolved through
ell past races, for we are our own ancest-
ors and defendants. The disooyerers
and inventors OF our time are the old
Lemurisns and Atlanteans; ourselves,
reincarnated and now picking up dropped
threads of the past. Witness the White
City at Chicago which blends all styles
and proportions OF architecture in con.
glomerate whole. That city was par
tial and transient record OF human his
tory. Man lifted corner OF the veil of
memory and caught glimpse of his for
mer greatness. Much as that revealed
| it WAS but dim prophecy of the mighty
