Sounds Q. Sound is an attribute of Ãkâsha; but we cannot cognize anything on the Ãkâshic plane; on what plane then do we recognize sound On what plane is sound produced by the physical contact of bodies Is there sound on seven planes, and is the physical plane one of them A. The physical plane is one of them. You cannot see Ãkâsha, but you can sense it from the Fourth Path. You may not be fully conscious of it, and yet you may sense it. Ãkâsha is at the root of the manifestation of all sounds. Sound is the expression and manifestation of that which is behind it, and which is the parent of many correlations. All Nature is a sounding-board; or rather Ãkâsha is the sounding-board of Nature. It is the Deity, the one Life, the one Existence. (Hearing is the vibration of molecular particles; the order is seen in the sentence, “The disciple feels, hears, sees.”) Sound can have no end. H.P.B remarked with regard to a tap made by a pencil on the table: “By this time it has affected the whole universe. The particle which has had its wear and tear destroys some (Page 550) thing which passes into something else. It is eternal in the Nidânas it produces.” A sound, if not previously produced on the Astral Plane, and before that on the Ãkâshic, could not be produced at all. Ãkâsha is the bridge between nerve cells and mental powers. Q. “Colours are psychic, and sounds are spiritual.” What, assuming that these are vibrations, is the successive order (these corresponding to sight and hearing) of the other senses A. This phrase was not to be taken out of its context, otherwise confusion would arise. All are on all planes. The First Race had touch all over like a sounding board; this touch differentiated into the other senses, which developed with the Races. The “sense” of the First Race was that of touch, meaning the power of their atoms to vibrate in unison with external atoms. The “touch” would be almost the same as sympathy. The senses were on a different plane with each Race; e.g., the Fourth Race had very much more developed senses than ourselves, but on another plane. It was also a very material Race. The sixth and seventh senses will merge into the Ãkâshic Sound. “It depends to what degree of matter the sense of touch relates itself as to what we call it.” Prâna Q. Is Prâna the production of the countless “lives” of the human body, and therefore, to some extent, of the congeries of the cells or atoms of the body A. No; Prâna is the parent of the “lives.” As an example, a sponge may be immersed in an ocean. The water in the sponge’s interior may be compared to Prâna; outside is Jîva. Prâna is the motor-principle in life. The “lives” leave Prâna; Prâna does not leave them. Take out the sponge from the water, and it becomes dry, thus symbolizing death. Every principle is a differentiation of Jîva, but the life-motion in each is Prâna, the “breath of life.” Kâma depends on Prâna, without which there would be no Kâma. Prâna wakes the Kâmic germs to life; it makes all desires vital and living. The Second Spinal Cord Q. With reference to the answer to the question on the second cord, what is it that will become a second spinal cord in the Sixth Race Will Idâ and Pingalâ have separate physical ducts A. It is the sympathetic cords which will grow together and form another spinal cord. Idâ and Pingalâ will be joined with Sushumnâ, and they will become one. Idâ is on the left side of the cord, and Pingalâ on the right. Kosmic Consciousness (Page 551) 416
Initiates Pythagoras was an Initiate, one of the grandest of Scientists. His disciple, Archytas, was marvellously apt in applied Science. Plato and Euclid were Initiates, but not Socrates. No real Initiates were married. Euclid learned his Geometry in the Mysteries. Modern men of Science only rediscover the old truths. Kosmic Consciousness H.P.B proceeded to explain Kosmic Consciousness, which is, like all else, on seven planes, of which three are inconceivable and four are cognizable by the highest Adept. She sketched the planes as in the following diagram. Manas-Ego Kâma-Manas or Higher Psychic Prânic-Kâma or Lower Psychic Astral Prakritic or Terrestrial Taking the lowest only, the Terrestrial (it was afterwards decided to call this plane Prâkritic), it is divisible into seven planes, and these again into seven, making the forty-nine. Terrestrial (Page 552) She then took the lowest plane of Prakriti, or the true Terrestrial, and divided it as follows:— Its objective or sensuous plane is that which is sensed by the five physical senses. On its second plane things are reversed. Its third plane is psychic: here is the instinct which prevents a kitten going into the water and getting drowned. The following table of the terrestrial, objective consciousness was given: True terrestrial planes or 7th Prâkritic 1 Sensuous 2 Instinctual 3 Physiological-emotional 4 Passional - emotional 5 Mental- emotional 6 Spiritual-emotional 7 x 7 Para-Ego or Atmic 6 Inner-Ego or Buddhic 5 Ego-Manas 4 Kâma-Manas or Lower Manas Divisions of the Astral Plane 3 Prânic Kâma or Psychic (Page 553) 2 Astral Astral 1 Objective The three lower Prâkritic are related to the three lower of the Astral Plane immediately succeeding. 417
