76 THE THRESHOLD OF EVOLUTION 



was hopelessly in the dark also, but, with the help of my past 

 experiences in stock-breeding, it is now clear to my mind that 

 the reason for this is that the miracle of redemption enables 

 the races that have been redeemed to excel all other races in 

 the acts that are the result of man acquiring the power to 

 transmit a portion of the attributes of God the Mother over 

 those races whose ancestors have not been so redeemed, and 

 have not been fitted to evolve higher psychical development by 

 contest with greater climatic hardships. It is in this manner 

 that I can best account for the fact that the Aryan or Alpine 

 races and those who have Aryan blood are able to excel all 

 other nations and races in Honour, Justice, Mercy, Sympathy, 

 Comprehension and .Invention, but not in Skill and Manufac- 

 ture. Again it is only the races that have had the hardships 

 of the glacial period to contend with which are able to evolve 

 those higher mental capabilities which I express by the word 

 Aryan, or northern, and which are not to be found in the 

 ' southern or Mongolian races. Thus it is only in the northern 

 races of Europe and Japan, which have also had a glacial 

 period to fight against, that we find the higher ideals of 

 Integrity, Control and Management present to any marked 

 degree to-day. 



So in the Epoch of Hope we find that woman advances the 

 course of man's evolution, and can help, by her untiring and 

 devoted exertion of Love, Sympathy and Self-sacrifice, to 

 promote the welfare of man and turn him from the paths of 

 delinquency and degeneracy into which his own sins and 

 brutality would most likely have led him, had not God come to 

 woman's aid and by the mystery of incarnation granted her 

 the power to reproduce in her grandsons as well as in her 

 grand-daughters the belief in God and Religion and the vir- 

 tues of Love and Sympathy, although this does not apply to 

 her other qualities of body, shape and life. 



We may as well here take note of the reason why it became 

 necessary for God to perform the one miraculous act in the 

 Epoch of Hope which I have previously called attention to 

 that is the act of Redemption. You will now perceive that the 

 qualities of Belief, Love and Sympathy, which are the quali- 

 ties of woman, not of man, could not be transmitted from 

 Mother to Grandson except by a miracle of God, and to bring 

 this about it was necessary that woman should conceive a son
