Here again appears the theme of a center of Spiritual force (for Astral force is Spiritual in essence) and its three manifestations. All these three dense materialisations are fed and nurtured by the forces and energies of the Solar Plexus center. I have here given a very important fact to those who are interested in the study of medicine from the esoteric angle; rightly appreciated, it will lead to an understanding of the healing art. Control of the Solar Plexus center, and the right reception and release of the energies focussed in that center would bring about a major purification, an intensive strengthening and a vital protection of the three vital organs to be found in that area of the human physical mechanism.

It should be noted here that the transference of Solar Plexus energy per se is the task of all aspirants to the Path of Discipleship at this particular time, plus the gradual awakening of the Heart center. The first members of the human family to become group conscious are naturally the aspirants and the disciples, and these set the pace for the rest of humanity. This they achieve through the pressure of life itself and of circumstances, and not by the following of set rules or specific meditations. Later, prior to a certain major initiation, such rules and measures may be applied so as to give the initiate immediate and conscious control over the Astral body and its focal point of entry into the physical organism, the Solar Plexus center, and again at the time that certain major transferences are consciously made. Of these transferences there are three of primary importance:

1. From the three centers below the diaphragm into the heart, throat and Ajna centers.

2. From the two centers above the diaphragm—the heart and Throat centers—into the Ajna center and the thousand-petalled lotus of the head.

3. From the Ajna center into the Head center, signifying the complete unification of all the energies throughout the entire Etheric body into one central focal point of distribution—under direct control of the Spiritual Triad.

The processes involved in these three great experiences (each preceded by much testing and experiment) naturally put a strain upon the physical body and are the cause of many of the ills to which disciples fall heir.

6. The Sacral Center: This center is located in the lower part of the lumbar area and is a very powerful center, controlling as it does the sex life. One of the interesting things about this center is that it must always remain a powerful center until two-thirds of mankind have taken initiation, for the generative processes must go on and remain active in order to provide bodies for incoming Souls. But as the race progresses, this center will be controlled and its activities will be carried forward intelligently and as the result of knowledge, of insight and of higher and subtler contacts, and not as the result of unlimited and uncontrolled desire, as is now the case.

I can, however, bring to your attention what I have already written, and suggest that someone with the interest and the time should collect all I have said in all my books anent the subject of sex so that a pamphlet on the subject may be compiled.

a. The sacral center corresponds to the physical sun, the source of vitality and the life-giving agent on our planet.

b. The symbolism of the sacral center is concerned primarily with the gestation period prior to birth, and in its right understanding can be traced and expanded the whole story of conception, of form-building, and this whether it is the physical form of a human being, the form of an idea, an organisation built around a central truth, the form of a planet or of a solar system. It is perhaps above everything else else the center through which the forces of Impersonality must eventually express themselves, and the whole problem of dualism must be resolved. This solution and interpretation of the symbol must come from the realm of the mind, thereby controlling the physical reaction and occupying itself with purposes and not with desire. Ponder on this. When it is thus understood, then we shall be reaching the point where a great transference can take place into the higher center of creation, the Throat center.
