Take our earth. Each atom is fourfold--whether of the static
core or of the static gaseous envelope. Creation on it is
limited to the kinetic skin, wherein the attraction of the lower
and repulsion of the higher notes in each octave of vibration
have full play. All things on it must have come from the
chording vibrations of the atoms of the prakritic elementary
substances and their envelope of ether. They may or may not have
life or mind the ether atom may have lost its chord with its
pranic envelope, or the pranic envelope may have lost its chord
with the manasic; but the combination must have force or energy
within it. It may have lost Mind and Life in acquiring it, or
after acquiring it; but it had to have life before it could
become prakriti.

All things in the prakritic world flow from the Life of the
etheric and the Mind of the pranic worlds. Everything in the
etheric world has life, and our unconscious personification or
"vivification" of etheric life transferred into fauna or flora,
or into force of any kind, has a natural explanation. The
thrill of vibration in one octave through the differentiated
consciousness of the universe by which the light was separated
from the darkness, the lower from the higher, was all that was
required to create each star and sun, and world, and all that in
them is. And it was all good.

Each thing on every lower world was but the translation into form
of the type of the next world (or plane) above. As each element
on this prakritic type, so each combination of those elements
into crystal or tree or animal is but the translation. The
normal earth from the crystal to (the animal) man was pure, and
