120 THE PORTAL OF EVOLUTION 



God-made man than all this is altered, and from that time 

 woman's influence is to elevate man's mind to further efforts 

 of hope and courage to conquer the world of Matter, and, as 

 comprehension still further enlarges his mind, to live for 

 others not himself. 



Now, the forces of love travel diagonally, so as to diffuse 

 the influences of all the attributes equally throughout creation ; 

 thus the attributes of God the Mother tend to intermingle with 

 those of God the Spirit, whose forces travel horizontally, and 

 with those of God the Soul, whose influences travel perpendicu- 

 larly. The Spirit of Love, therefore, ascended to Heaven and 

 brought down the Spirit of Soul to create the mind of man in 

 its material form of wisdom, which, combined with the Spirit 

 of God the Father, now evolved to the stage of Thought, 

 which is by this addition advanced to Imagination, marks the 

 creation of man in Genesis; and it is this advance from 

 Thought to Imagination that starts the soul of mankind from 

 the instinct of an animal, and will thus make it possible 

 for man to raise his thoughts to Heaven in the conception of a 

 life hereafter, and so place him above the rest of creation as 

 he evolved the other two qualities of his soul, Comprehension 

 and Understanding. I wish the reader to fully grasp that 

 there is a vast difference between the physical development of 

 soul which we call Life made up of nerves, brains and Matter, 

 which are but the conducting medium of the psychical forces 

 we call electricity and radio-activity, which produce energy, 

 vitality and soul. These electrical forces represent the in- 

 fluences of God the Soul as those of God the Mother have 

 their visible prototype in protoplasm and material creation by 

 chemical action, affinity and combination, and those of God the 

 Father in Light, Heat, Contraction and Expansion. 



The energies of God the Father are seen in Light, Motion 

 and Disintegration, the forces of God the Mother, by 

 Chemical Action, Affinity or Love, and the energies of God 

 the Soul in brain, positive and negative electricity. So as 

 each of these trinities of energies and forces becomes the pre- 

 dominant motive powers in Nature, we find some new 

 attributes of God's Trinity evolves some new Evolution 

 of Nature, and each in turn destroys the previous 

 evolution to establish a more progressive one. So on the 

 Eighth Day the Spirit of God the Mother brings to man from
