The extent of our mind is not limited to our cranium. The mental sphere of each person extends throughout the entire cosmos. This is the Cosmic Mind.
Rune Ur (Uruz)
The Rune Ur, which is the Rune of the cosmic day and the cosmic night, relates to the clock (Uhr). That is why the clock has twelve hours, twelve hours of light, twelve hours of night.
The clock is a symbol of time because really time is a circle that has a beginning and an end. It is not a straight line, which many people think. It is circular and has twelve esoteric hours. We have discussed the mysterious Nychthemeron as the Twelve Hours of Apollonius, which relate to the twelve works of Hercules.
Can You Hear the Tao?
When the highest type of men hear Tao,
They diligently practice it.
When the average type of men hear Tao,
They half believe in it.
When the lowest type of men hear Tao,
They laugh heartily at it.
Lao Tzu
Beauty and Its Function
The primordial light of Truth exists in the upper strata of mind stuff matter. When we plunge deeply into the mind’s lower densities, we enter a realm of darkness and misery.
Often the fear of poverty beclouds human vision, and we cannot perceive the light which really is shining in our mind. This absence of the light of Truth within us plunges us into the realm of misery and despair lying beneath our feet, and we open ourselves to the pressure of minds which are imprisoned in these submerged strata. Often, when a man is idle, and suffering from cold and hunger, he unknowingly contacts these submerged strata and their inhabitants put pressure upon him to increase his misery.
Evil is able to affect the ignorant in three ways:
The bombardment of our uncontrolled passions and desires, and the activity of animalism in our mental atmosphere.
The influence on our minds of discarnate spirits who have imprisoned themselves in the lower spheres of the animal world.
The lack of devotion to Truth (God).
