it meets all sorts of matters, which work on it and transform it into adifferent consistency or state. I put these rays to show these matters arein the body. This carbon 192, working on oxygen 768 producesnitrogen 384. Nitrogen 384 is re. [See diagram.]This re 384 meets with another hydrogen—a carbon, really, which isin the body—carbon 96; and this carbon transforms this 384 intonitrogen 192. Nitrogen in the first triad becomes oxygen in the nexttriad, so, in the second triad 384 is oxygen, 96 is carbon, and 192 isnitrogen. If you study only these triads you will see how it works.What is nitrogen in one triad becomes oxygen in another triad.Now here in this diagram, nitrogen 192 is mi. Do transforms withthe help of this carbon 192, re transforms with the help of this carbon96, then comes an interval at mi: it cannot be transformed in the sameway. It couldn't be transformed, but here the additional shock comesin the form of the second food. It enters as do, oxygen 192, meets withsome matter, carbon 48, and is transformed into re 96; and theformation of this triad gives a shock to that—mi 192, which also meetswith carbon 48, and produces another triad. This mi 192 becomes fa96. [See diagram.]Then re 96, again meeting with some matter 24, gives mi 48; and fa 96,again meeting with this same 24 produces sol 48.
