together, therefore there is no absolute zero condition anywhere in the universe, and no man or being can ever make it exist. Yet, and I say ‘yt with my whole soul, the states of absolute heat and light do exist. They exist in every light ray, in every photon, in everything that has motion. The overflow of absolute light results in what we call Life. Life, therefore, is the left-over energy of the entire Cosmos. It is grounded back, like electrical currents, to the source from whence it came, to come forth again like flaring energy captured in symmetrical forms and functions we call man, woman, and angels. It is neither added in the universe, nor is it ever diminished. What we use in one place is not exhausted but is directed back to origin, or converted into another symmetrical form. In atoms it is expenditure. In human beings it is death. Yet the conversion makes for new births, be they of new particles, or of new living entities. Therein is the Eternity of both matter and life. There is no death. There is no such thing as oblivion. “Even as the zenith of Illumination ebbs back from me into the cosmos, I am as bewildered as before, for I still cannot know the why and wherefore of it all, why man and woman, why the seed must exist before the end product and yet the product produces the seed. I am now further from the answer to which came first, the chicken or the egg, applied to all things, but I have seen where the egg is born. I have seen the dynamical force, the essence behind all eggs, behind all entities. This force, though it be the inherent force of the universe, though it be the exact measure of the stress of the ether in its attempt to fill the empty spaces which divide it, also manifests as the gentle force of life, of love, and of soe intelligence. “In a flash, I have also seen that the gentle flux of that force which is life and intelligence can arrange it and bring it to a focus for tremendous expression, whereby the atomic bombs explode. Yet there is no destruction, for it takes intelligence to bring together the atomic bombs, and no force is greater than its creator. 138 SON OF THE SUN also be a frozen state of absolute zero. But the two states exist
