Closure and Grand Re-opening
Mornington Crescent Lives
On
Many London Underground maps
still show
disused
station. This is because of a period of closure from 1992 to 1998.
Amazingly this Legendary
Cult Underground Station was closed in 1992
for
an indefinite period, as the passenger lifts from street to platform
level
had become unserviceable. Recognising the importance
of this station
both
to the transport system and to our cultural heritage, millions of pounds
were
found to repair the lifts and give the station a makeover.

Everything is negotiable in Theosophy and not surprisingly
some
Theosophists have even raised questions as to whether
Mrs Trellis of
This page looks at various
theories about Mrs Trellis of
her
existence, her identity and possible hidden messages concealed in her
letters
but in the Theosophical Tradition these are ideas for consideration
and you can make your own
mind up.

When we contemplate the
pageant of nature, we see her
at a work of building and
un-building. From mineral
to bacterium and plant,
from microbe to animal and man,
nature is busy at a
visible work, step by step evolving
higher and more complex
structures.
Though she may seem at
first sight to work blindly
and mechanically, she has
in reality a coherent
plan of action. Her plan
is to evolve structures stage by
stage, so that the amount
of time needed by a given
creature for its
self-protection and sustenance
may be less and less with
each successive generation.
The higher the structure
is in its organization and
adaptability, the more
time, and hence more energy,
there is free for other
purposes of life than
sustenance and
procreation.
The planetary chain consists of seven
companion globes,
which for convenience of reference are named
from the
first seven letters of the alphabet, A, B, C,
D, E, F, and G.
We occupy globe D, the fourth in the chain.
The course
of evolution begins on globe A, and proceeds
by regular
stages through globes B, C, D, E, etc.
In the beginning,globe
A was first evolved, and life
received a certaindegree
of development upon it; then
globe B cameinto
existence, and the life-wave removed
from globe A to B,where
it went forward another stage;
then globe C wasevolved
and received the life wave for
a still further stagein
its progress; and so on, until at the
end of the first roundglobe
G was evolved and furnished
the field for the highestdevelopment
attainable in that round.
The first round - the first tour of the
life-wave through the
seven globes from A to G - having been
completed, the monads
- the life wave - passed again to globe A, and
commenced
the second round, or the second tour through
the chain.
Without following out details, it is enough to
say that
three such rounds have been completed, and the
fourth
round has commenced its sweep and isstill in progress; and
that we now occupy globe D in this fourth
round.
Three times the life-wave has passed from
globe A to globe G;
and has now reached globe D in its fourth tour
through the chain.
The
earth is one of seven globes, in respect to man's
consciousness only, because when he functions
on one
of the seven he perceives it as a distinct
globe and does
not see the other six.
This is in perfect correspondence with man
himself who
has six other constituents of which only the
gross body
is visible to him because he is now
functioning on the Earth
-- or the fourth globe – and his body represents
the Earth.
The whole seven "globes" constitute
one single mass or great
globe and they all interpenetrate each other.
But we have to
say "globe," because the ultimate
shape is globular or spherical.
********************
Each one of the globes is used by evolutionary
law for the
development of seven races, and of senses,
faculties and
powers appropriate to that state of matter:
the experience
of the whole seven globes being needed to make
a perfect development.
Hence we have the Rounds and Races. The Round
is a
circling of the seven centers of planetary
consciousness;
the Race the racial development on one of
those seven.
There are seven races for each globe, but the
total of
forty-nine races only makes up seven great
races,
the special septennate
of races on each globe or planetary
center composing in reality one race of seven
constituents
or special peculiarities of function and
power.
Like everything else in the universe, this
planetary cycle
is of a septenary
nature, consisting of seven root changes
of state, which may, for convenience, be
called "globes",
but should not be imagined to occupy different
places in space,
but rather be thought of as images to
represent changes of
state caused by the information of the
nebulous and ethereal
planetary matter, which evolves from, and
involves into, itself.
These seven globes interpenetrate one another,
although
they are divided each from the other in
degree, or state, just
as the seven principles of man or the seven
planes of
consciousness, are separated. What is to be
remembered,
however, is that it is a separation of state
and not of locality.
If, then, everything is evolved, the word creation
can only
be
properly applied to any combination of things already in
existence, since the primordial matter or basis cannot
be created.
