"The subject of Science is one that is very dear to Our hearts. Indeed, The Ray (The Fifth) along Which We transmit this information is precisely That which is instrumental in bringing about the scientific advancements which already have been made and which are going to be made in the years to come." "The greatest error which Twentieth Century scientists have fallen into is their belief that the world about them is made up of tiny, separated packets of matter, not connected to each other by any intervening material, and not having anything to do with each other. They believe that The Universe is made up of tiny billiard balls which they call protons, neutrons, and so forth which simply bounce against each other and create the various phenomena which they observe in their laboratories." "Alas, this error is reflected in Man's own mental state at present. Humanity shuts Itself off from Itself. Men carve up the surface of The Planet into separate chunks which they say they 'own'. They put emotional distance between themselves and others. The direction of Science could not have been any other than what it was, given the materialistic, separative, and rivalrous nature of Man's philosophy over the past period of time." "But with the coming of The New Age, there will be a dawning of a different understanding about the nature of Man and of the nature of the Universe in Which He finds Himself. The two will again be parallel, for Mankind will understand that it is one family interconnected by The Sea of Spirit in which all are immersed, and, at the same time, He will realize that the matter which He sees about Him is composed of one substance, only one substance, which He will probably call The Aether again as It was called in the last century." "For all of matter which He sees around Him is simply the condensation of This Aether into particular packets which He recognizes as the protons and so forth. But between all of these is The Sea of Aether, that tenuous, fine, beautiful substance which extends through all of space and which is responsible for every manifestation and every phenomenon which He perceives in the 'real' world. We believe that this recognition of the oneness of all created matter will soon be manifested upon The Earth. Indeed, We have attempted to paint the picture in its simplest terms. We are hopeful that these writings will gradually influence the direction of thought among the scientists of the human family and that, as the scientists themselves become persuaded of the truth of the matter, so all Mankind will come to understand that every being that has been created partakes of a single, central Creative Power ,Which He may call God or The Father, in such a way that they are all linked through Him to each other." |
