Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Philosophy of War
But the impelling Force which caused the Outgoing or downward arc of the projection into Manifestation resists the Indrawing power or upward arc of Realization which is necessary to complete the At-one-ment. This resistance to the uplifting, dematerial izing and indrawing force constitutes and isthe basic principle back of all re?ections or phases of the War. In the physical world this resistance is expressed as the war between Spirit and Matter; the resistance due to the density and inertia of Matter to the unfold ment and expression of the Spirit which, with the descent of the Light, clothed itself in Matter that it might evolve up through it and by so doing spiritualize it and return it to its primordial state. It is the inability of the lower Vibrations of Matter to respond to the higher vibrations of Spirit until, through the subliming and etherializing process which results from the friction thus engendered, Matter becomes finer and more plastic and thus more responsive to the expressions of Spi1it. Hence in all cosmogonies, 'there were many Wars, ' all referring to the strug gles of adjustment, spiritual, cosmical and astronomical, but chie?y to the mysteries of the evolution of man, as he is now.2 The point we wish to emphasize 13 that these wars are all necessary factors in the ad justment which must occur ere the close of any and every cycle.
