1917 THE CONSCIOUS EVOLUTION OF MAN 233
in almost every department of human activity the cleansing
flood of violent reaction is bringing the regenerative
agencies for the rectification of all present-day evils.
Not mentioning the great spiritual movements of the
day, it is sufiicient to note a few of those special activities
which bear directly upon the question of sexual
morality. Such are: the "Eugenie Society;" the "International
Purity Movement;" the "White Cross Society,"
and numerous other organizations of like purpose. The
question of sexual morality is engaging the attention of
the able Medical Fraternity itself, thus all are pressing
forward to a right understanding of this vastly important
matter.
Incessant and continuous
evolution is working with
supreme energy, carrying the race ever upward and onward;
and all that is demanded of us is cooperation.
The sex-passion, long looked upon as an evil, rightly
used and understood, has a high benediction for mankind
in its upward struggle. It is the same force that is
used on the spiritual plane by the Divine Builders, or
Creative Elohim; and when brought under the control
and intelligent direction of man it becomes
the source
of energy which has the vitalizing effect of electricity;
and its radiations keep the body in a state of perpetual
youth.
On the battle-ground of sex is fought the fiercest conflict
of all; nor can it be otherwise; since behind and thru
the sex-passion the dual fundamental forces of the
Cosmos are ever pressing, thereby finding their direct
expression in man. Upon the harmonious interplay of
the dual forces of the Cosmos depends all manifestation;
disturb the harmony, and disorder supervenes until reajusted;
arrest the interplay and the manifestaticn
ceases. Hence it is that nature is most severe in her
treatment of those who rebel against her laws.
