—[x]—It is noticeable that the highest spiritual thoughts are directly or indirectly connected with sex. All religions have had a basis of it, from the most ancient to the most modern. This has furnished the theme for many opposers of religion and unbelievers who would make a great evil of religion on the ground that it includes sex.
—[y]—To neutralize this it is useless to fight it. Resist not the so-called evil, but take the ground that Nothing is evil in the temple of the living God, "which Temple ye ARE." "Your BODY IS the Temple of the living God," and no part or function or appetite of that Temple is evil. Sex is a divine institution. So are water and fire. And either one of the three will destroy you if wrongly applied. Yet each of them promotes and causes life. It is the MISUSE of the functions of the body that destroys us, not the function as such. (See Paul's wonderful expositions of this truth in 1 Cor. 3:16 and 17; 6:19 and 20; 7:34 and 36. 2 Cor. 6:16.)
—[z]—After all it is the Subconscious (7) or Soul Mind in us that determines the direction of our progress to a large extent. When we are in right attunement to that Subconscious (7) we come to the Blessing of that perfect liberty, we find souls of like nature, we are no longer restrained or fearful of man made laws and conventions. We LIVE the life of perfect freedom, in perfect control without restraint or fear.
Relativity
—[a]—Taking this Table of the Seven Principles as a whole, we find that the first three spaces, 1, 2 and 3, are ABOVE their basic planetary influences. This symbolizes the fact that the Father-Mother God (1) the Creative Christ Consciousness (2) and the Spirit of God (3) all manifest in us SUPERIOR to the law, that they are the makers of law, that law is beneath them as only a form of expression. For this reason the Christ, knowing ALL law, could do things that were beyond any perception of law that men had, hence they called His works miracles.
—[b]—We see that Cohesion and Rejection, or Discard, are horizontal to the planetary influences symbolized by the signs in the second circle from the I AM center. This shows that when we have not deliberately known and become superior to the planetary influences in the planes of the Physical Body (4) and the plane of Morality (5) we will be moved by those planetary influences just as the animals are. The less we know of them, the more they move us, just as is true with any other natural force.
—[c]—Transmutation and Spirituality, the Divinity of Parenthood (6) and the Subconscious (7) have been put under the set of laws that come from the great Law.
