All kinds of colors are produced in the transposition of needles of corpor from parallel polarity to mixed or transverse positions. It is an error to say: Wave of light or bent ray of light, or that a given number of vibrations or undulations produce different kinds of colors, there is neither wave nor undulation in fact. Needles are arbitrary and cannot be bent. Compare a needle to a transparent glass crystal. Place a given number of these end to end, touching, and in a line: To bend this line is impossible, except at angles, for where every two ends join there will be an angle: No matter how short the needles, there will be no bend in fact, but a succession of arbitrary lines and elbows.

2

This is not, however, the juxtaposition, except when they are in a direct line; otherwise the ends of the needles do not bend like joints, but each one turns more or less on its own axis. If they all turn, an APPARENT wave is produced, expressive of a certain color; if part of them turn, another color is produced. In proportion to this disturbance, so are the APPARENT vibrations slow or fast, to mortal observation.

3

In regions of the earth’s atmosphere where they have cyclones, reddish lights appear in the firmament, even before the cyclone manifests on the earth. And these lights travel with the cyclone, manifesting great heat on the earth. In the monsoon regions, a similar manifestation occurs, but generally with pink or bluish lights instead of red, if over the ocean; but if over the land, a smoky-looking atmosphere results.

4

These colors, and all others, manifested in atmospherea, are not confined to the earth stratum, but they extend even to the outer extreme of the earth’s vortex. And in many instances they are so high in altitude that their manifestations are imperceptible to mortal observation, except that, for example, the moon or the sun shines less brightly. When one of these transpositions is dark and is high up in the atmosphere at night, they say the moon is surrounded by a haze. And yet, meanwhile, the atmospheric stratum next to the earth may be clear.

5

The earth’s vortex has millions of these strata, which are of various colors, shades and tints. When photographs (spectrographs) are taken of the moon or sun, these often interpose. If such a picture is taken, it deceives the observer into thinking he has taken a picture of the oxygen or hydrogen of the planet’s (sun’s or moon’s) atmosphere.

6

The same state of affairs also applies to the sun’s vortex; so that with these clouds of color intervening in etherea, the telescope (as in spectroscopy of stars) encounters much interference.

7

As a vortex grows older, these disturbances, together with imperfect solutions of corpor, become less frequent. So, also, in the early age of a vortex they are more frequent and of longer duration; so that, at times, a red, blue, or other color of light, will overspread the earth for periods of a thousand or more years without interruption. And in some cases, darkness can occur for as long a period. Whatever living things, such as herbs, trees, grasses, and so on, that were quickened into life during darkness, were without eyes. Nevertheless, in this day, even these things turn toward the light; as plants and flowers placed in a window will manifest.

8

Where se’mu was quickened into life in lighter times, it focalized toward the light, and this focus was called an eye. And those that were thus quickened into life, and not attached to the earth by fibers or roots, were called animals. And the LIFE they inherited, gave them power to go about from place to place. So great are the powers of the eyes of some animals that they can see and distinguish in the darkest of nights. Such eyes are absorbents of vortexya, and they shine in the dark.

9

Hence the first organs of sense created in any animal were the eyes; about which it has been said, the eye is the seed of the tree of knowledge. The sight of the eye is the beginning of self-creation, in acquiring knowledge; and it does so by going forth and staying at home at the same time. The sight of the eye is a miniature sun, sending forth and receiving vortexian power at the same time. Which may be proved by looking on the eyelids of a person sleeping, who will awaken because of it.

10

Since, then, the eye of man can go forth with intelligent power, controlling things, it has been concluded for thousands of years by the wisest philosophers, that an All Seeing Eye is the Cause and Creator of the whole universe, which is His Person.

11

In the first quickening of eyes, they partook of the color of the vortexian lights at that time; and even so, at the same period of time, the skins of mortals were colored, and according to their surroundings, some light, some dark, and some red, or yellow, or copper-colored.

12

And all of them propagated after their own kind, and do so to this day. And though the blacks might live for thousands of generations with themselves only, in any country in the world, they would never become whites. And the same rule applies to whites and browns, and all the races of man.

13

But because they can mix, and because that mixture can propagate, all the races of man are one and the same in all their organs and capabilities. Now, as previously stated, white things manufacture a white atmosphere about them; while black things do not (being negative). The white give off, or radiate light and power; the black are not radiants. The white man’s radiating power recoils upon himself, and he suffers with heat. So also with the white bear. The black man and black bear are the reverse.

14

From this rule it will now be plain to the student: When a planet has attained to so great an age that she no longer gives forth light or heat to radiate upon herself, she cannot be seen (as a star) in the heavens. There are millions of these kinds of planets in the etherean firmament. Some of them move slower than any of the planets man can see. Some of these, at times, eclipse the sun and are taken for sunspots, although, perhaps, not a million miles from the earth.

15

Like these, in darkness, there are plateaus of nebula floating in the firmament, which also produce eclipses of the sun and moon. For convenience, let such planets and such nebula be called dead planets and dead nebula. There are millions of such bodies, sufficient to eclipse the sun, a star, or the moon, as the different periods of darkness on the earth will prove. (See notes at end of this book.)

16

In prophesying [estimating –Ed.] the tendency of a planet’s approach to death, refer once more to the moon: Now the moon has, as to the earth’s face, no axial revolution. But it must be remembered the moon cannot go around the earth without making an actual axial revolution. Seventy and one-half revolutions of the moon’s vortex complete one travel around the earth’s vortex. Consequently we arrive at the exact speed of the moon’s vortexya and the strength of light and heat manifested on the moon. The student should make allowance for the moon’s ellipse (elliptical orbit), for the light of the moon is much stronger (as seen from the earth) some times than others.

17

Place the se’muan age at ninety-nine degrees (Fahrenheit scale), the time of quickening animal life. It will be found that the moon, in that period, must have had an axial motion, facing the earth, of three and four-sevenths’ times faster than the earth. While at the same period of time, the earth made its daily revolution in what would now be twenty-one hours and forty minutes. This would give a difference, in animal heat, of two and a half degrees of vortexya on the earth of today, as compared to the se’muan age. Consequently large animals, which are now extinct, had a temperature (average) of two and a half degrees higher than at present. By which we perceive that three hours and seventeen minutes’ loss in axial motion produced a loss of two and a half degrees of vortexian heat.

18

The difference, therefore, on the moon, in temperature below blood-heat and what it now must be, must correspond exactly with its comparative slowness (one revolution a month), as to the loss manifested on the earth. Now, although the student will discover the moon has fallen to a temperature far below zero, yet it emits both light and heat.

19

To find the se’muan age of man, place his temperature at ninety-eight (degrees Fahrenheit) for optimum health, and one hundred and two at inflammation or death. Four below normal will, therefore, be the end of the period of man’s inhabitation of the earth. After the vortexian radiation reaches this period (94° F), man will cease to propagate, and, so, become extinct as to the earth.

20

This gives man eight degrees of vortexya as the sum of his existence. One degree is equivalent to twelve million seven hundred and sixty thousand radii c’vorkum. The serpent’s coil would be one and one-fourth. That is, twenty-four thousand years to the time of completion. Thus, 12,760,000 divided by 260,000 add 1,402 1⁄2 add 24,000 x 3 = 76,750 years, the time of the se’muan age for man. To this should be added one cycle, of, say, three thousand years, which was the beginning of the fall of se’mu.

21

By reversing these measurements, find the axial decrease of the earth in seventy-eight thousand years, which will be just one hundred minutes, or 3/34ths of a second annually, which is the earth’s decline in speed. For which reason the first of the race of man on earth began about seventy-eight thousand years B.K. Since 3/34ths (0.088235) is fairly close to
