Short-haired women undesireable.
Females queue for haircuts as Russians used to queue for flour.
Triads / Is this only women?
Women are neither independent nor responsible.
Means of the rulers of keeping the masses placid — Russian vodka & English sport.
Fairs aid French self-calming — give temporary relief from ill effects of fascination with fashion.
Fairs held in squares where once were religious-moral discussions.
B enjoyed the fairs, thinking nothing. Many cheap means for putting oneself in a stupor. Tasty food
but bad for stomach. All kinds of gambling.

THIRD BOOK
40 B Tells How People Learned and Again Forgot About
the Fundamental Cosmic Law of Heptaparaparshinokh
(III.3) 813

The totality of unreal impressions connects with our functions.
What is ‘a good tutor’?

Twins Choon-Kil-Tez & Choon-Tro-Pel (great-grandsons of Konuzion) rediscover law of 7.
Twins migrate East to China.
Re: iraniranumange there are 3 classes of formations; those which transform substances of
their own planet; of their own solar system also; of other systems also.
Poppy studies — this plant transforms substances from other stars.
Opium the dream-maker & subordinate octaves.
Twins study 3 cosmic results (phenomena): opium, the white ray & sound.

Nirioonossian-world-sound & smallest part which still has vivifyingness of all 3 forces.
What is indivisible on Earth may be divisible in other spheres.
Hydrogen is one of 7 cosmic substances of Ors’s inner-Ansapalnian-octave.
“2 out of 3” Mdnel-Ins of an octave discovered by twins.
The experimental apparatus Alla-attapan.
The stopinder of one cosmic result acts on the corresponding stopinder of another (AoV).
When Moon (chief bearer of evil to Earth)’s atmos was being formed, winds on Earth
brought sand and snow to poles.
Opium, sound and light share like manifestations and are formed from the same factors.
These transitory cosmic results have affinity in their inner mutual relations.
All the higher vibrations of one result always give the direction to all the lower vibrations of
other ‘transitory cosmic results’. 840
Following the twins, ‘octave knowledge’ was passed down (by initiatic transmission) & even honed
for 2/300 years.
We can take advantage of this knowledge to ease our almost-impossible inner struggle.
‘Learned beings’ of new formation have organic-psychic-need to be considered such by others.
Due to Solioonensius the impulses of sensing and foreseeing are weakened in genuine initiates.
A few fragments of octave knowledge survive, eg. (Mendelejeff) some named AEs of opium.
Persians knew of law of combination of colours until recently.
When they get home B will demonstrate to H ‘the successiveness of the processes of the mutual
blending of vibrations’ on the piano.
King-Too-Toz and experiments with piano-type apparatus (Lav-Merz-Nokh).
The totality of 7 octaves, sacred Hanziano, gives the Nirioonossian-world-sound.
The totality of vibratns of the notes of 1 octave corresponds to that of the cosmic substances issuing
from 7 indept sources , composing 1/7 of the fundaml common-cosmic Ansapalnian-
octave.
The 7 octaves named. The 7 notes named. 850
Vivifyingness of vibratns of sound corresponds with that of cosmic sources of substances.
Despite being cut off on Earth, by their own Partkdolg duty the twins found much objective truth.
Horse-tail hair strings (chaotic vibratns) in the mi-fa & si-do ‘gaps’.
Horse-tail strings’vibratns depend on; 1. surrounding vibratns from other strings; 2. ‘atmosphere’s
temperature’; 3. radiatns of beings present.
Red quarter-tone notes also on LMN — can be adjusted to blend with shifting hair strings.
New formation learned being invents dumbed-down 2 octave keyboard w/o red or hair strings.
Spin-off degenerated instruments use same principle: the alternation of gravity centre sounds.
From the flow of some vibratns from others, cosmic subtstances arise of differing
density/vivifyingness, and (dis)uniting with each other form large & small
relatively-independent concentrations — hence Iraniranumange is actualised.
Humans are not inspired by hearing ‘some obtained from the other & harmoniously-flowing gravity
centre vibratns’ in music — our quickness of instinct is weakened.
The law of vibrations is the most important scientific branch & gives the possibility of recognising
reality.
Greeks divided octave into 5 — the two systems seem equally plausible to modern man.
Gaidoropoolo’s ‘mathematical’ explanation re: how both 5 and 7 notes are plausible.
‘Chinese divided octave according to placing of their ‘restorials (centre of gravity) of the voice’.’
Really it is the Greek 5-tone scale that was based on the restorials/light sounds of the voice.
Restorials/’light sounds’ of the voice are formed by surrounding inner & outer conditions.
These organic restorials obtained when the tempo of the result of a manifestation fully harmonises
with other functionings of one’s common presence.
Some existent groups can reproduce the gravity-centre notes in the octave in 13 & 17 whole notes.
One group in Asia can produce 40 separate definite sounds with only 3 restorials.
Their manifested restorials evoke ‘centralisation’ and echo in a being’s whole presence. 865
LMN can demonstrate vibrations of all Ansanbaluiazar, but piano can demonstrate 1/7 part.
If scale taken into account, each cosmos (& each independent 1/7th part) is similar to Megalocosmos.
Vibrations mutually help each other to evolve or involve.
Standard unit — smallest particle of Theomertmalogos which still has full vivifyingness.
Nirioonossian-world-sound should be taken as ‘absolute vibrations’ of do of instruments.
Mysterious periodic sound.
Aerial vibrations of inertia are generally formed in the atmospheric space by natural vibrations.
Just as 1st-food acquires vivifying power after transformation into Piandjoëhari; a chord’s vibrations
don’t acquire theirs till fusion with preceding vibrations, starting from sol’s
vibrations.
If mi & si produced in hermetically-sealed room, they involve to do or fa respectively then cease.

Experiment with dog, sheep, goat, A-T & B-E. Re: a life form’s “total” of vibrations.
‘Chord of vibrations’ depends on how intensely variously-caused vibratns transformed by

(III.108) 918
H wants to hear about Americans; those who exist opposite the place where civilisation flourishes.
B visited USA just before leaving Ors.
Americans are occupied with ‘dollar businesses’ — Immigrants with necessary trades & professions.
Americans themselves couldn’t even bake bread. 2 causes;
The rights of parents over their kids. / Implanting in children a love of money.
— the predominant urge during their feverish existence.
Americans are governed by their ‘dollar businesses’, rather than the other way round.
B confines himself, to rest H from active mentation, to MNE’s form of mentation for a while…
Current prohibition of alcohol. Booze made on old barges off the shores of America.

Non-hypocritical chicken ceased to wish to breathe the air any longer. (Eaten.) \ Steiner.
Increased interest in ‘the supernatural’; theosophists etc make the opaque look transparent.
Prohibition encourages consumption (even by those who normally wouldn’t).
It’s as with chewing poppy seeds in Maralpleicie (213—), except now booze is faked.
Now, illicit consumption is cunningly covert.
Orangeade destroys mucus membranes and deteriorates digestive function.
B has seen meals prepared many times, even in his own home.

B goes to Chatterlitz language school to learn US dialect.
3 forms of language taught: conversation for one who has to earn dollars;
for one who likes to do business & for social standing; & for one who wishes to procure whisky.
Five words needed: Maybe; Perhaps; Tomorrow; Oh, I see; All right.
Another tip: say a European language’s word imagining a hot potato in your mouth — sounds
English.
— imagine potato sprinkled with red pepper — sounds like AmE.

On seeing a genuine American elephant, one has to remember oneself with the whole of one’s being
not to get the impression that it’s only a fly.
Almost 50% Americans have disharmonised digestive organs, & almost 25% impotent.
Boston is ‘the city of the people who escaped race degeneration’.
If these sicknesses continue, Americans will go the same way as monarchic Russians; except
for latter, death from abnormal Reason of leaders; former, death from the ‘stomach & sex’.
In general, we can only live a long time depending on normal action of
digestion & sex organs — the 2 chief motors of our existence.
America is still quite young, so, like an infant, all is ‘peaches & cream’.
The degree of the further movement for the purpose of blending
again with the Infinite will depend on the direction and degree of
the forces obtained from the initial impetus.
One must always guard against the initial impetus, because on
acquiring momentum it becomes a force which is the fundamental mover
of everything existing, leading everything back to Prime Being.
[Leitoochanbros interruption]
Americans eat already-decomposed food, whose AEs have been ‘volatised out’.
AEs are essential for taking in the power needed for a normal existence (Okidanokh?).
Even w/o true knowledge, w/ being-efforts, data crystallised such that maleficent manifestns
sensed instinctively.
As soon as any product’s connection with Nature is severed, it changes its form, decomposes in
same order it was formed.
When the time comes, AEs making up cosmic formations (completely- and half-spiritualised
arisings) begin separating.
When hermetically-sealed tin opened, all AEs concentrated in little bubbles evaporate & disperse
to their corresponding places. [cf. Again-Tarnotoltoor]
American fruit is just a ‘feast for the eye’.
A surplanetary formation that’s artificially grafted/manipulated reaches state Absoizomosa wherein

N/S American continent formed by; 1. 2nd great cataclysm not according to law & 2. place re:
common systematic movement. Soil excellent for producing the ‘divine grain’.
Used consciously, this soil could in a good season produce the ‘fullness of a complete process of
Heptaparaparshinokh’, ie. a 49-fold harvest.
America got rich & began to feel superior to rest of world.
Making bread, wheat now ‘polished & combed’ so all AEs beneath husk on grain surface destroyed
— best bit given to pigs or destroyed. What is eaten by humans is just to connect/maintain AEs. Now
this bread just gives you gas & worms.
This doesn’t aid conscious service . of Nature, but more worms aids 1 serve Trogoautoegocrat -.
‘Comfortable seat’ WCs are 2nd factor in disharmonisation of digestive function.
The greatest possible sensation of pleasant tranquility — a new incentive for the jealous service of
the god self-calming (almost the chief evil engendering and evoking all abnormalities of psyche).
Due to WCs, the required posture not used, begin discharging this function automatically —
muscles atrophy, obstructions form — diseases exclusive to 1.
A ruling passion among Americans to be as often as possible in Europe.
The appendix aids 1st-food digestion. Gathers connective substances (as gas) from food which
helps excretion.
12 days to a month round trip journeys to Europe cause daily change of time to regular defecation
habit so gas gradually escapes unproductively, making ships smelly. Constipation.
Previously in Tikliamish, ‘wonder beds’ used to sleep and lounge & shit without effort.
‘Comfortable beds’ invented by the rich & power-possessors
— “if you wish to enjoy felicity then enjoy it with a bang.”
As they were being invented, Chirnooanovo happened (1’s centre of gravity shifted) — beings
usually thus feel ‘remorse of conscience’ (Blagonoorarirnian sensation).
But on 1, epidemics (reciprocl destructn of Microcosmoses in the Tetarto-) instead of remorse.
Hasnamussian ‘revolutionaries’’ propaganda: bourgeois got diseases b/c of beds then spread to rest.
The suggestible masses lose “sensation of self” & rise up, destroy the beds & their users.
Maralpleicie food-preservation experiment: habitual consumers’ organic shame atrophied.
If c-sealed, not exposed to effects of atmosphere so should escape process of decomposition.
Sheep’s tail fat now used on Asia for preservation and also as food.
American tins exude poisonous AEs i/s which fuse with food elements according to ‘kinship of
class by number of vibrations’ (AoV) then later is eaten.
US preserve food raw, Asia roasted or boiled, hence slower decomposition.
When a product cooked, an artificial chemical (permanent) fusion of AEs -- they remain for longer.
B advises H to study both types of fusion in Megalocosmos — chemical & mechanical.
The significance of a fusion in 3-sourced cosmic substances — bread: water (+); flour (-); fire (~).
When water (itself a natural mechanical mixture)’s connection w/ Nature cut, starts to decompose.
When dough baked, a new totality is obtained which will resist the Heropass (for a while).
Even when dried and crumbled, bread’s AEs still endure.

Gurdjieff will be hated by full-bodied materialists, 96-carat deists & ‘full-stomach optimists’.
Although G usually follows MNE’s sayings, now he’s naively telling the truth in his book.
Disharmony of sex funcn in US (& Europe) due primarily to not keeping genitals clean — this
negligence engendered in their essence is already quite fused with their nature.
Venereal diseases epidemical on Europe & America, almost unheard of in Asia.
Asians’ following customs circumcision & ablution insures them against ‘sex l abnormalities’, eg.
onanism.
* Conversation quoted with young Persian (a petticoat chaser) in Paris.
Only drunk can he look calmly upon obscenity going on here — at 1st felt shame/embarrassment.
With booze — feeling self-justified — his depression lessened & even wished to take part, though
opposed to his nature.
e Persians have 2 definite organic attitudes/instinctive feelings toward d: 1. present/future mother;
2. woman-female — this began quite recently, ~250 years ago.
At that time, war increased & feeling of piety declined.
Men away at war either went mad or killed themselves, who had no faith in their subconscious.
But men who periodically performed the ritual of intercourse not affected.
Prostitution introduced in Asia. Chiefs w/o remorse get d into this job ‘repulsive’ to the feelings.
These poor d not to blame — parents & husbands allowed the arising in them of laziness.
Active principle (e) must unfailingly participate in every initiative & good manifest n of theirs.
Contemporary ‘equal rights’ movements are naive, but unconsciously accepted by most e.
Intensive process of imagination & enthusiasms in young d should help develop their good sense.
Takes time for shame to atrophy so whores work abroad w/o any inner discomfort.
‘Organic essential need to do nothing except enjoy oneself’ in d & e — more prostitution.
To a normal Persian e, a d-mother is as his sister; a d-female is an animal he feels aversion to.
In Europe, attitude toward d is purely mental, not organic.
In polygamy, feeling of infidelity doesn’t arise with other wife/ves, only w/ strange d.
Monogamy doesn’t work. e & d flock to Paris to ‘put horns on’ their other halves.
Even husbands who can’t afford to sustain mistress(es) are unfaithful in their thoughts/feelings.
In Persia, can have up to 7 wives — e‘s thoughts/feelings always occupied how best to arrange their
inner/outer lives — and they are absorbed in him & try to aid him in his life duties.
On the 1st night a European d makes e ‘her own’, but after still innerly pursuing an ‘ideal’.
European d lack that s’thing which disposes them to ‘organic shame’, which prevents immorality.
W/o this shame, distinctions of d-mother & d-female have merged.
Young Persian hunted by d in Europe like ‘big game’ — he fell for 1st time, behaving vilely.
Having a ‘burning question’ (why he hasn’t got any STDs) has helped the Persian’s inner ‘odious life’
flow endurably — the serious observation & study of these diseases has animated & justified the
sense of his life.
Observations & studies made at all times w/ his whole real inner I while (semi-)drunk & sober.
Abdest (w/ cold water) adhered to particularly strictly by Shiite Muslims (w/ ‘Ibrkh’ bowl).
Modern WCs not good for ablution — only good for reading the Decameron. 1000
No good customs in European everyday life.
In Middle Ages, church elders treated Christianity as Bluebeard did his wives, derided them &
changed all their beauty and charm. Used to be in it many more good customs (eg. e circumcision).
All genuine religions are created by men of equal attainment of Reason, based on same truths —
only the regulations and rituals vary according to the degree of Reason of the people.
Christianity was almost wholly based on Judaism — for contemporaries but suitable also for
people of later epochs.
(From Chaldean MS) Moses introduced circumcision into Judaism to stem masturbation which he
noticed (during journey to Canaan) widespread among youths of ppl confided to him from Above.
(From Moses’ book Tookha Tes Nalool Pan, ‘The quintessence of my reflections’) Human body
perfect in its defence against externals. If anybody’s organ malfunctions, it is their fault.
In Chapter 6, Verse 11; ‘smegma’ substances collect & due to clothes are not separated & volatised
naturally. Sweat; germs; itching; rubbing; masturbation.
He introduced a rite for e & one for d. His medical knowledge came from Akhaldan via Egypt.
The uncircumcised masturbate, & if a kid orgasms just once, normal future mentatn impossible.
Since Solomon, rite hasn’t been performed on d.
If Christ’s teachings were carried out as intended, it’d be the best of all possible religions.
Learned Arab, Naoolan El Aool, introduced polygamy into everyday life.
Islam’s contents were intentionally restricted by its creators to stress certain everyday customs.
Contemplation is the state in which the truths in religious teachings can be understood.
Thanks to polygamy — a reciprocal psycho-organic maintenance of the foundation of family life.
Periodic fasting (to produce a shock) is the only good remaining Christian custom.
Russian Orthodox Christians got their religion entirely from the Greek Orthodox.
Conversation with Russian Orthodox ‘Old Believer’: (terms of endearment after 2nd vodka)
Fish feasts during Lent — incl. a lyrical ‘prayer’ to fishes! (Venus & Psyche?) 1014
Greek Orthodox still do not eat fish at Lent except once in memory of a day associated with Christ.
Judaic-Essenian MS: In AD 214 the secret Kelnuanian Council introduced fasting into Christianity.
At this time Christians were being persecuted b/c if teaching became widespread rulers wouldn’t
have reason to display their power anymore & so the shocks which please their self-love would cease.
Dispute: Greek Veggendiadi advocated vegetarianism. Hertoonano (alchemist) disagreed —
All 1 will never follow one religion. If only some don’t eat meat, their ‘will power’ will cease.
Veggies’ bodily health increases, yet, mixing with omnivores, their psychic state deteriorates.
Carnivores’ ‘character’ (due to Eknokh consumptn) deteriorates in terms of positiveness &
morality.
H’s experiments on thousands of ppl with his 2 helpers & Arostodesokh apparatus.
People in general are stimulated by example, aroused by envy, and influenced magnetically — but
w/o a common planetary religion/government, a compulsory prohibiting influence impossible.
* Abstention at certain times from animal products will bring some benefit, hence fasts.
Some good customs are still in use by contemporaries.
Fox trot degenerates the psyche — the experience’s process in one is the same as for masturbation.
Kolenian Loors (betw Persia & Afghanistan) have lice but no VD, thanks to Gypsy self-fumigation.
Keeziak (cattle dung) burnt in Tandoor (pit), stand on Ateshkain (stool) & say prayers, lower/raise
yourself, warm your bits, family sings sacred canticles.
Similar for Toosooly Kurds nr Mt Ararat (who often pay social visits). Entering hut, in a Mungull
purify yourself from influence of evil spirits which surround us during honest work.
Many similar customs in Asia, either to 1. destroy carriers of disease; 2. strengthen moral shame.
European customs are to please each other; conceal reality (incl. one’s nullity) & increase duality
of personality & mind.
Modern education decrystallises ancient data for the Being of an image of God, not just an animal.
This & lack of patriarchal customs means we’re living mechanical puppets; pieces of pressed meat.
We only become animated & manifest outwardly if by accident our buttons are pushed corresponding
to previously mechanically received impressions.
This is largely due to onanism, which arises b/c it’s “improper” to mention sex to children.

Closing chord: last day in New York — Childs cafe, Columbus Circle.
Americans are periodically the fundamental source of new abnormalities on 1.
All passersby’s “totality of subjv appearance” is imitation of beings on other continents yet seeming

But free beings (who have experienced & been disappointed in all ordinary life) of those

Inner subjective significance engenders external manifestations.
B actively pondered while appearing an automatic observer of surroundings, inconspicuous.

The whole individuality of every man indispensably consists of four definite distinct personalities:
1. the totality of automatic funcng whose data consists of a) the total results of previously-received
impressions & what’s intentionally implanted from o/s; b) from the result of ‘daydreaming’
(what we call ‘consciousness’/’mentation’). [the coachman]
2. (In most cases this funcns independently of #1.) The sum of the results of data deposited & fixed in
the presence thru the 6 ‘receivers of various qualities of vibrations’ from new impress ns.
Sensitivity depends on heredity & upbringing.
3. The prime funcng of the organism, & its motor-reflex reciprocally-affecting-manif ns. The quality of
these manifns also depends on heredity & upbringing. — “organic instinct” [the
carriage]
4. The manifn of the total results of the automatised funcng of the other three personalities. This part,
in a being, is called ‘I’. [the passenger]
There’s a ‘gravity-centre localis ’ in the c-presence for the spiritualisn & manifn of each of the 3 parts.
n
Each localisation has its own system, & for its actualis n, its own peculiarities & inherent predispositns.
Each part needs its own corresponding education for the rounded perfecting of a man
— only then can a man have his own ‘I’.
4 fully-determind personalities should be correspondgly developd so in one’s manifns they’re
harmonisd.
An analogy to show the varied sources of arising & varied qualities of personalities’ manif ns —
A carriage (cart), horse & coachman to convey a passenger = a man’s common presence.
In a real man, the passenger is the owner of the carriage. In a “man” w/ pseudo-‘I’, it’s a changing
fare.
The body w/ its motor-reflex manifns is the carriage.
All funcngs & manifns of feeling are the horse harnessed to the carriage & drawing it.
The coachman, directing the horse, is ‘consciousness’ or ‘mentation’.
The passenger, commanding the coachman, is the ‘I’ —
The fundamental evil among contemporary ppl is that this ‘I’ is missing due to abnormal educ n.
In ordinary ppl the 3 parts are formed arbitrarily of themselves, just anyhow — the horse is a nag;
the coachman is a tramp who sits round daydreaming awaiting a chance passenger.
Each of the 3 has its own separate needs, habits, tastes, psyche, notions, subjv supports, viewpts, etc.
The coachman isn’t very literate. He’s an ignorant rustic, but rubs shoulders w/ ppl in the
capital so has picked up phrases embodying certain notions, & now looks down on
anything rural.
He considers himself competent in every sphere. He likes to teach those below him, argue
w/ his equals, & flatter his superiors in a servile way.
One of his weaknesses is to lust after local maids and cooks, but he especially enjoys filling
his belly then drowsing, satisfied.
To gratify these vices he uses for himself part of the money given him to feed the horse.
He works only when s’one makes him, or when hoping to get a tip. Desiring the latter, he’s
learnt to play on ppl’s weaknesses, cunningly flatter & lie.
Every free moment, he slips into a bar to daydream, chat w/ similar types or read the paper

He tries to appear imposing by wearing a beard or padding himself out.
The horse was neglected during its youth, living in solitude — it’s locked up i/s itself, w/ its inner life
driven i/s. For its external manifns is has only inertia.
It grew up w/o proper educn, just under the influence of constant thrashings & abuse.
Instead of the food it needs (oats & hay) it’s just been given straw, worthless to its real needs.
Never having received any real love/affection, it’s now ready to surrender to the slightest caress.
Deprived of all interests & aspiratns, the horse’s inclinatns are just concentrated on food, drink &
yearning for the opposite sex — so it automatically veers towards where it can get any of
these.
If it sees a place where previously it’s gratified one of these needs (even just once or twice), it’ll run
off in that direction given half the chance.
Although the coachman has a very feeble u/standing of his duties, he can at least think logically a bit.
He remembers tomorrow, fears losing his job & desires reward, so s’times makes an effort.
But no data have been formed in the horse for manifg aspiratns reqd for responsible existence —
it can’t u/stand why it need do anything. From fear of a beating it may inertly fulfil an
obligation.
The cart is of complicated design & various materials. It was made to carry all kinds of burdens, not
just a passenger (as we ordinarily use it).
The cart was built for use on back roads. Grease spreads over its metallic parts from jolts.
Travelling on city roads w/o shocks, there’s no uniform greasing & parts rust & cease funcng.
W/ too little grease, parts gets red-hot & other parts are spoiled. Too much & cart’s gen l movt is
impaired. Either way it’s hard for the horse to draw it.
The coachman knows nothing about greasing — if he tries, he’s guided by hearsay.
Our cart is now adapted for urban travel so if it has to go on a back road, s’thing will go wrong.
It can’t now be used for its intended purpose w/o risk. If repairs begun, the whole cart must be
stripped, the parts cleaned, etc. — parts (inexpensive or very costly) may need to be replaced.
Thanks to lack of right upbringing, contemporary man is a confused & ludicrous s’thing —
The latest-model brand-new carriage is harnessed to a worthless horse. The coachman is unkempt &
shabby, wearing an old discarded cloak he’s found — but w/ a new top hat & big
chrysanthemum.
The 3 centres haven’t been trained in the requisite reciprocal maintenance, assistance or u/standing.
When concerted manifns are later reqd, they don’t appear.
‘Educn’ is based on repetitn, sensing almost empty words/expressions & recognising just by their
consonance the ‘reality’ they signify.
The coachman is able roughly to express his desires to similar types, & approximately u/stand them.
He picks up ‘sophistication’/‘worldliness’ thru gossip w/ other cabbies & flirting at the gate w/ maids.
He gradually automises himself to recognise one street from another & work out direct ns & diversns.
As maleficent ‘educn’ doesn’t include the horse, its inherited possibilities are not atrophied.
But it’s grown up ignored like an ill-treated orphan & learns nothing of what the coachman knows,
nor u/stands the forms of reciprocal relationship which are usual for him.
During its life the horse may’ve picked up some of the coachman’s language, but he suspects nothing.
Shafts connect the carriage to the horse (= blood) & reins the horse to the coachman (= Hanbledzoin).
As it stands, the coachman may just be able to affect the horse w/ the reins; ‘right’, ‘left’, ‘stop’ — but
in rain the reins swell & lengthen, in heat the opposite, affecting horse’s sensitivity of
perceptn.
This means some impressn changes density & tempo of Hanbledzoin thoughts can’t affect feelings.
At the Institute, pupils’ parts are educated separately & in their reciprocal relationships
— & one’s own ‘I’ is begotten & fostered.
Man is a being who can do (act consciously & by one’s own initiative).
But e’thing from start to end does itself in & through contemporary ‘man’ (a victim of civilisn).
‘Exact-positive-science’ says man has evolved into a complex organism reacting to ext l impressns such
that his responsive movts s’times appear spontaneous.
But no matter how far apart the evoking/conditioning causes & the man’s actions, he is still incapable
of independent manifn — Man is a transforming machine, a transmitting station of forces.
Will cannot be in the c-presence of the avergae man.
In s’one who can do, will is a combinatn of the results of properties specially elaborated in oneself.
Compared to ordinary man, real will is a signof a very high degree of Being.
Ordinary ppl are automata, acting as long as the spring wound by external conditions works.
G’s photographically exact snapshot from nature of an ordinary day of a ‘man’. 1204-7
A man enters the world as a clean sheet of paper & all around dirty it w/ educn, morality, info,
feelings of duty, honour, conscience, etc. — dinned into him or by suggestion.
The dirtier the paper, the more stuffed w/ trivia, the cleverer he is considered & so he begins to regard
his own dirt as merit.
Man should be the acme of creation — he has the possibilities for acquiring all the data as in the
ENDLESSNESS.

My consciousness gets results re: my established subjectivity’s defects & possible means of

One must think deeply & impartially from every aspect about one’s mechanicality & its
consequences.
Right self-observatn is to study me & my mechanicity practically, to u/stand sensibly w/ my whole
being (Psychopathically is w/ just part).
I must 1st decide to be unconditionally sincere w/ myself — shut my eyes to nothing.
The elucidation of the principles of self-obs must be properly perceived & transubstantiated in one.
I need courage not to lose heart — continue self-observation with the crescendo of persistence.
Inferences from self-obs may upset prior beliefs & also the order of one’s ordinary mentation.
The values which made up one’s calm & serene life may be lost.
W/ self-obs I establish my impotence in the face of literally everything around me.
E’thing either attracts or repels me. Anything can influence the arising of some association in me.
W/o self-imagination or -calming, I see my life is just a blind reacting to attractions/repulsions.
Our ordinary arbitrary use of words conveys indefinite & relative notions, perceived ‘elastically’.
Modern educn of the rising generatn & consequent lack of u/standing the pith of words’ meaning has
led to diminishing capacity to ponder & reflect upon what I & others say.
In everyday life we need to convey our thoughts but lacking exactness, have to borrow words from
other languages or coin new ones, & one’s never certain if one’s choosing the right word.
We’ve also lost the capacity to concentrate active attention for any length of time.
Uttering or hearing a word, involuntary emphasis is given to one aspect of its meaning, according to
the concurrent flow of automatic associations in one.
A conversation is a ‘tragicomic feast of sound’ or a ‘symphony of words w/o content’, perceived by
an impartial observer as what the 1001 Nights describes as ‘cacophonous-fantastic-nonsense’.

collective life is lost.
The word, eg., “world” carries no definite meaning in us. If forced to define it, we’re
embarrassed, then recall & offer as our own the 1st definition that comes to mind.
Ordinary definitions of ‘world’ — in terms of, 1. astronomy; 2. physics (theory of similitude betw
atoms/electrons & suns/planets); 3. philosophy; 4. dimensions; 5. religious dogma; 6.
spiritualism; 7. theosophy (7 interpenetrating worlds of increasingly rarefied
matter).Ordinarily, the inner psychic life of man is just an automatised contact of 2 or 3 series
of previously-perceived assocns of impressns fixed under the action of some
impulse then arisen in all 3 centres.
When corresponding impressns are repeated (assocns act anew) — they begin to
constate (influenced by inner/outer accidental shock) that similar impress ns evoked in
another centre are repeated. {‘centres work in unison’?}
The sequence of the impulse proceeding when new impress ns are perceived, and the
established automatism for the arising of the process of those impressns’ repetition (= assocns)
account for his particular world-view & features of individuality.
This causes the ‘incongruity’ observable even in the ordinary passive-waking state that several
unrelated associations flow thru him at any time.
Impressns are received into one’s c-presence w/ the 3 centres which are perceivers of all 7
‘planetary-gravity-centre-vibrations’.
The structure of each ‘perceptive apparatus’ (centre) is the same, like a clean wax phonograph disc —
a ‘reel’ or ‘roll’.
Impressions received are recorded on these discs from before birth, during formation in the womb.
Each impressn is inscribed in several places at once; alongside previously-perceived & similar, and
also those perceived at the same time.
When these impressed perceptions have contact w/ a similar quality of vibrations, they are
‘roused’/evoked again as on their 1st arising.
This re-running of impressed perceptions is association, & the parts of repetition entering the field of
attention we call memory.
Under hypnotism, even the reels hidden in the most obscure corners of the mechanism can work.
Often, some experience provides overt or hidden shock to influence a reel to spontaneously unwind.

THE ADDITION
Ordinary man is an unconscious slave (blind tool) to all-universal purposes alien to his individuality.
Yet Nature gives possibility to still serve Her, but also to work simultaneously for his own egoistic
individuality — such relatively-liberated ppl are necessary for the equilibrium of objv laws.
Some ppl don’t have this possibility due to, eg. heredity & upbringing.
I must eradicate from my presence the fixed consequences of Kunda-properties (& the predisposition
towards those consequences) with self-initiated persistent intention & by my own efforts.
Kunda was originally to protect us from the possibility of seeing/feeling what proceeds in reality.
Altho K was ‘removed’, the law “the assimilation of the results of oft-repeated acts” applies to every
‘world concentration’ under certain conditions.
So a predisposition to produce similar results is transmitted to us by heredity, & established
conditions of ordinary life are congenial to this.
I may die at any moment, yet I cannot picture to myself & ‘experience’ in my consciousness my
death.
I can partially picture the death of another.
Can I contemplate, feel, ponder, live thru, enter deeply into the despair of my death’s inevitability?
Ppl who’ve never sown anything in their responsible life have nothing to reap for the future — no
objv possibilities. Kunda means we don’t cognise these genuine terrors.
Peacefully they serve Nature’s nearest aims, having lost possibility of serving higher purposes.
For self-quieting we invent explanations for what we do & do not sense, eg. our ‘will’ saves us from
experiencing these unpleasant terrors.
“Mind-fornicatn” has become the dominant inherency of ppl, & subjv emotionalness fixed in us.
Imagine I get into bed tonight & suddenly a mouse runs across my body — I experience terror. And
also about similar trifles which might never even occur — yet death doesn’t trouble me.
Our ready-made ordinary ‘common knowledge’ is from those who’ve become ‘authorities’ due to the
naivety & herd instinct of others.
The totality of our ‘childish experiencings’ (ie. obj v fleabites seeming terrifying) arise/flow in us to
make up/sustain our life & to disallow us the possibility/time to see/feel reality.
If I knew the date of my death, everything filling my life would lose its sense & significance.
If I look my death in the face, I may ask, “Why then should I live & toil & suffer?”
Nature saw we’d ceased being-Partkdolg-duty, so gave us the protective possibility not to sense
reality.
Life is given to us not for ourselves, but for Higher C-Cosmic Purposes.
As we tend sheep & pigs, Nature keeps us comfy & ensures we don’t die prematurely.
All ppl are slaves of this Greatness (the all-universal Actualising), compelled to fulfil what’s destined
for each, according to his heredity & acquired Being.
Both a real man & “man” are slaves, yet the former (w/ his own ‘I’) is conscious of his position has
the possibility of applying part of his manifns to acquire imperishable Being for himself.
The “man” doesn’t cognise his slavery, serves merely as a thing, & disappears forever when used up.
Human life compared to a large vari-sourced river flowing on 1’s surface, each man a drop of water.
1st the river flows along a level valley — it parts where Nature’s undergone an unlawful cataclysm.
The active stream flows into a more level valley unhindered by surrounding majestic scenery, finally
into the vast ocean. (The sphere of general Nature which has reciprocal exchanges of
substances betw various great cosmic concentratns, giving the possibility of evoln to the
n
next higher concentr .)
The other stream continues over land broken up by cataclysm, ultimately into crevices & 1’s bowels.
(Then takes part in continuous involutionary constructn, becoming steam & distributed into
corresponding spheres of new arisings.)
After the water divides, the streams stay independ t w/o mingling, yet often so close that results of
their flows blend. S’times atmospheric phenomena move splashes or drops between streams.
The dividing of the water is when s’one reaches adulthood. After this, one’s in the general totality of
the river, so any considerable movement of the river applies also to each drop.
The drop itself is subject to accident — predetermined fate is for the whole river only.
Pre-divide, in drops which have inner subjv struggles of their own self-denial, a “s’thing” may arise
(their own ‘I’) giving the possibility of entering active stream.
The flow of each stream proceeds according to the same laws, but the results are subjectivised for
each stream, and these subjv 2nd-grade results can under certain conditns spread to certain drops.
Chief evil for contemporary ppl is that (b/c of educn) our presences are such that we remain passive,
drifting along w/o pondering the consequences.
In the passive stream, 1. we just end up as raw material; but also
2. in life we’re subject to the caprice of blind events {the law of accident}.
But even if one’s drifted into the passive stream on reaching majority, it’s still not too late
— one can still acquire the kernel of one’s essence (— own ’I’).
Given certain inner & outer conditions, one can cross over — “the first liberation of man”.
You must 1st consciously crystallise data in yourself to engender in your c-presence a constant
unquenchable impulse of desire for the crossing — followed by long preparation.
Renounce all automatic & slavishly-acquired habits. Become dead to my ordinary life.
Without death, no resurrection. — Death (in my life) of the Tyrant from whom proceeds my slavery.
All misu/standings in collective life, all disagreements, hasty decisions, wars etc happen b/c of the
property in our c-presence, “the reflecting of reality in our attention upside-down.”
If I think seriously, w/o identifying w/ my passions, I see that as my mood changes, “a fly becomes an
elephant & an elephant a fly.” — a ‘stark terror’ becomes not worth a brass farthing.
This phenomenon is especially sharply manifested during times of mass psychosis.
Ordinary ppl (their feeble mentation even weaker than usual) receive shocks from the maleficent
stories of a lunatic (the media?) & manifest automatically — their Conscience ceases to func n.
Nature has now ceased to need mass psychosis, so she adjusts w/ changes of birthrate or in the tempo
of the general psyche.
In former epochs, humanity stayed unified in one flowing river — we’ve divided since Tikliamish.
Now the organisation of mankind can only flow tolerably if we’re divided into masters & slaves.
This is unworthy among our collective existence as children of \, but abnormal conditns force us to
reconcile to this compromise, corresponding to our welfare yet not against holy
commandments.
Certain ppl must set themselves the chief aim to acquire data to become masters among others.
“To really be a just & good altruist it’s inevitably required 1st of all to be an out & out egoist.”
A master is one who, thanks to his objvly devout acts towards others (manifested according only to the
dictates of his Reason, w/o Kunda properties), acquires s’thing which constrains others to
bow before him & obey.
