in the world has at its source a supreme <span class=GramE>truth,</span> how is
it then that the world has become ugly in its expression? Why are things at all
ugly? <span class=GramE>Because there are other things that intervene between
the Source and the manifestation.</span> For example, if I asked you: &quot;Do
you know your true being?&quot; what would you say? You do not know; it would
be wonderful if you did. It is the same with all beings and things. And yet you
are already a sufficiently developed being, a thinking being, and have gone
through many stages of refinement; you are not quite the lizard crawling on the
wall! Still you cannot tell what <span class=GramE>is the truth of your being</span>.
That is the secret of the deformation in the world. It is because there is all
the unconsciousness – the Inconscient – that has been created by the fact of
separation from one's origin. It is this inconscience which prevents the Source
from manifesting in its own nature, although it is there always. It is there,
therefore that all things exist, the world exists; but in its expression it is
deformed, because it has to manifest itself through inconscience, through
ignorance and obscurity. But how did it come about? The will to create was
originally a will that projected itself towards individual formation; what it
arrived at, however, was not the true individual (or <span lang=EN-GB
style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>individualisation</span>) but a breaking up of
the solid unity into infinitesimal fragments. The original indivisible unity
became a sum of infinitely divided unities. These unities or units were
individualisations of things separate and feeling and acting as such. It is
precisely the feeling of separation from others that gives you the impression
that you are an individual. Otherwise you would feel that you were only a fluid
mass. That is to say, you are no longer conscious simply of your rigid outer
form and all that cuts you off from

makes of you a separate individual, you are conscious of the vital forces that
move about everywhere, of the inconscient that is the foundation of all, you
have the impression that you are a moving mass with all kinds of contradictory
movements in it, which cannot be separated from each other. You would not have
the impression that you are an individual being, but that you are something
like one note or vibration in a whole complex. The original will was to form
individual beings capable of becoming conscious again of their divine origin.
This process of individualisation created the necessity that to be an
individual one must feel on self separate: that is why one is cut off from the
original consciousness, at least apparently, and is fallen into inconscience.
For the Life of life is the Origin alone and if it is separated from that
source, consciousness naturally turns into unconsciousness and you lose trace
of the truth of your being. That is the process of the creation or formation of
the world by which the pure origin does not manifest directly in its essence
and purity, but through deformation, that is to say, unconsciousness and
ignorance. That is how ugliness came in, death and disease, wickedness and
misery and all. It is the movement, I say, brought in by the necessity of
individual formation that has produced these things, each and every one of <span
class=GramE>them, that</span> is the one source of the multiple evil in all its
modes and vibrations. I do not say this was indispensable – that problem I may
take up later on. But for the moment I direct you to the source in order to
show the remedy. And there is no point in questioning why it is so. As I said,
the only way to settle the world problem is to be conscious again, to recover
the lost consciousness. Of course, if you say like some religions that good is
good and evil is evil and they will always remain so, then there is no longer
any problem. An eternal struggle binds the two together and whichever wins for
the moment will make the world a little better at one moment and a little worse
at another. But the two exist, continue to exist eternally and indissolubly
intertwined. But you have seen it is not like that; one can come out of the
tangle into the perfect unity of the truth, for it is that which <span
class=GramE>is the only and original source</span>.</p>

brain cells which, in spite of all their ignorance, are still moved by a secret
stir of consciousness: these little specks of darkness reach out towards light
which they can find, for it is within them. They will arrive at what they seek.
It may take time more or less, but they will reach in the end. That is then the
remedy: it lies in the very heart of evil itself.<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
