The Works of God

The worlds of human life are seven in number, yet four of them are invisible, unknowable to earthly senses and this not because of remoteness but the kind of force-affection of their constituent matter. Mankind occupies but one planet at a time, for, like its present dwelling place (earth), the human race is but a letter in the Divine Library of Being. To be exact, the more advanced occult souls do inhabit Venus, which I have called Hesper and which the ancients of Earth termed The Garden of the Hesperides.

Yes, Phylos, life does mean more to me than to thee. I look at its stately march and I see the battalion of being wherein I am but a corporal, progressing around its appointed seven spheres, whereof only Mars, the Earth and Venus are matters which terrene perception can know; I see the human race progressively incarnating on each of its peculiar planets as it goes, every individual ego about eight hundred times, approximately, on each world each time the race comes to it, which is seven times also, making forty-nine world-carnate epochs. Each ego thus hath incarnation and discarnation periods to the number, more or less, of forty thousand. It is in these, that beginning as an irresponsible creation, far from human, as thou wouldst define, the word human and ending as a Perfect Man entering into Nirvanic rest, that the scheme of the Eternal Uncreated Father is perfected. Yea, verily, man sins but as his incarnations progress, he atones for every jot, every tittle. Karma is penalty for evil doing and it is the law of God; it knows no abatement of payment, accepts no vicarious price but is faithful gaoler over that prison which is life action; whoso is cast therein shall not come out till every farthing is paid. Beware, then, of doing wrong, for thou must bear the penalty, only thou. Verily, life is long enough to make payment; 'tis better to have none to make!

We go now to a view of the truth that the spirit came from the Father and returneth to Him after it hath fulfilled the law and the prophets; it liveth in the worlds of cause a short span but in those of effect a long span, for passivity is to activity as about eighty to one and the lives are many, strung like beads on the one cord of the individual ego. 

Lastly, the ego coming from the Father hath no sex; it is not man, neither woman, but sexless. When it entereth upon life it becometh double so that in the earth there is a man and there is a woman and though the bodies and the animal souls and the human souls be different in the twain, yet behold, their spirit is one and the same. Now sometimes the two, being of one spirit, are also husband and wife. Yet more often they are not, for the age of harmony is not yet at hand. But it is of such singleness of spirit that the Bible saith, What God hath joined, let no man put asunder. There is no man who could, if he would, so sunder. But that saying is not of the carnal marriage but of the spirit unit only. And the latter hath no lust. But when the twain shall, after the millions of years which lie between the non-esoteric Christian and Nirvana, come to know all the law of life, then will the union be as it was before the separation. Thou canst not really comprehend the truth now but when thou shalt, at last, be done with earth life, thou wilt then recall it and know. And knowing it, thou wilt then tell it to the world. But not now. Now is this true―Mates in the Lord cannot know each other as such until they both will to live after the rule of His Highway. And the latter hath nothing carnal. Straight is the Gate and narrow is the Way that leadeth unto Life and few there be that find it. Until they find it they find not each other; neither release from incarnation in the flesh.
