netism, Sound, Light, Heat, Cohesion, etc. What
modern science calls the "modes of motion," can
fairly be called definite vibrations. The forces just
named all manifest on the lower physical plane.
That is, we see there their effects. If back of all
forces there is One Force, and if this one force differentiates
first into seven, and these seven are in
their turn divisible into other Sevens, we get the
idea that the Solar spectrum and the musical scale
reveal the universal modulus; and that what is
known to exist in the realm of Light and Sound,
must also exist in the realm of Electricity, Chemism;
and, in short, with every force and on every
plane in Nature.* If, therefore, one can discover
the rate of vibration, the quality and amplitude of
the "wave-length" in any given case, he will hold
the Key to that plane.
Fohat is not only the synthesis of all known
forces, and endowed with intelligence, but potentially,
before differentiation begins, is the Author of
the Law of all subsequent correlations, differentiations,
or action whatsoever.
If this view is considered carelessly it might seem
to involve materialism or pantheism. But such is
