mulse; are caught up—are carried to the womb, and—the work of incarnation is effected.[1]
Here, in these aerial Kingdoms, beyond the domain of matter and the sphere of what we call Nature, or Natural Law, which of course does not govern Spirit, it having a mode of its own, I found two sorts of monads—the one perfectly globular, which constitutes the germ of the man—the others ovoidal, which constitutes the germ of the female. There are always two together: in couples they come from the Eternal God, in couples they return.
Placed in the uterus, these come in loving relations with a subtile spirit originally in the female monad, subsequently energized in the woman, condensed in the 'ova,' and there is a blending of elements—the external of the monad, and the internal of the ova; and from this blending springs a third something, which is the nucleus of the nervous body, so to speak. This nucleus robs all earthly things of their vital life—plants, flowers, food, drink, and so on—through the instrumentality of all the bodily organs. This union produces an improvement in both; together, they attract the great spiritual substance or atmosphere pervading our air, and then the child is quickened, and rises in the pelvis; the very instant that the first spark of this great spiritual atmosphere passes into the babe, the monad increases in bulk, bursts its bonds or envelopes, passes from the foetal lungs to its brain, locates in the pineal gland, radiates through the corpus collossum, energizes its body, and, lo! a soul has entered upon a new career.
- ↑ My business is with facts here; therefore, I shall briefly state what I beheld, and leave others to theorize—satisfied, as I am, that I have penetrated the Grand Secret.
