Philosophy Spirituality
Creator and Creators
This is an important and comprehensive work synthesising spiritual philosophy and science and written by a mother and daughter. Among the key sources are Madame Blavatsky, the Agni Yoga of Helena Roerich, a Russian text new to me called The Fire of Kalagia and the story of some Russian prisoners calling themselves X7 which I remember reading with Sir George Trevelyan 30 years ago. The book is worthy of careful study as it deals with the most profound questions relating to the nature of life. One key postulate is that Spirit shapes matter by thought and that the process of life is a return to unity. The process of manifestation is holographic and archetypes include not only geometrical shapes but also dynamic spirals moving through the three worlds of existence – the fiery, the fine or subtle and the solid. Archetypes also include colour and tone, all vibrational, while the fundamental purpose of the human is co-creation on the basis of responsibility; this entails harmony. There are chapters on the human body, the differentiation of universal consciousness, the nature of life and death and ways of shaping the future in terms of a road to unity overcoming the illusion of separateness. The authors make the important point that modern scientific discoveries allow researchers in metaphysics and spiritual philosophy to revise their ideas accordingly; also that our future is a manifestation of creative activity in terms of what we imagine, the goals we seek and the intention behind our thought as we endeavour to raise our vibrational frequency.
