EVOLUTION AND GENESIS 33 



Imagination, which is the first result of the trinity of God the 

 Father. Now, reading across the top line of this Table, we 

 have the trinity of the Invisible Creator, viz., Spirit, Exist- 

 ence and Soul, and on line No. 4 we find Imagination, Com- 

 prehension and Understanding, which is the trinity of the 

 human soul by the evolution of Comprehension, the female 

 portion of which woman is to evolve in the second Epoch of 

 Hope by the powers of Love and Redemption. Taking the 

 second column of Table I., it reads down the column thus : 

 Existence, Love and Life make Comprehension, which is the 

 gift the second redemption gives to mankind. Then if we read 

 across line No. 4, we read as follows : Imagination, Compre- 

 hension and Understanding, which constitute the Human Soul. 

 This is the first half of the two first columns of the two first 

 persons of God's Trinity in whose guidance rests the first 

 Epoch of Faith. And if we read down the third column of 

 Table I. it reads Soul, Wisdom and Mind makes Understand- 

 ing. But this last which is the true soul of Mankind we have 

 yet to evolve during the Epoch of Charity, the third and last 

 week of Creation which we are now about to commence in the 

 Nineteenth Century. But in the Epoch of Hope, the second 

 week of Creation, which I am now about to review, only the 

 first three attributes of God the Soul are to be evolved. 



This is the reason why in the past mankind has had 

 to be -led blindfolded by the hand of Religion, because his 

 mind has not evolved the powers of Understanding sufficiently 

 to do more than see and believe, for it is only during the last 

 hundred years that we are beginning to evolve the Spirit of 

 Understanding, and until this attribute of God the Soul is 

 fully evolved, we must take the truths of Nature and of 

 Revelation on faith and belief. For Nature alone is truth 

 directed and controlled entirely by God, and the finite portion 

 of His Infinite Creation is the only part which the Creator 

 intends to make truly understandable to our finite soul. The 

 invisible we can neither see nor understand, so we must take it 

 on faith and belief until we evolve Understanding, and the 

 most that the faculties of Imagination and Comprehension 

 can bestow on our infantile mind is the power to see and 

 believe what we are not yet sufficiently evolved to understand 

 until God grants us a more perfect soul gifted with the higher 

 wisdom of Understanding, for we have as yet only evolved
