Heart and head united create
a better world. El corazón y la mente, al unirse, crean un mundo
mejor.
The symbolism in this cartoon is rooted in the Science
of the Seven Rays—the seven primary energies that condition everything that
exists in our universe. In the Ageless Wisdom there are said to be seven
streams of energy or force, each of which expresses a unique aspect of divinity
and serves a unique purpose in the creative process. The table below
illustrates how the rays influence the human personality.
Einstein, in the cartoon above, is presenting the idea
that two of the rays in combination (II & V) will lead to a new
reality. As the caption says:
Heart and head united create a better world!
This is a central tenet of the wisdom teachings.
When the heart opens and love (Ray II) begins to flow through us, and when the
energy of love influences the way we think (Ray V), we become conduits (Ray
VII) for higher inspiration in service to the world. The capacities of mind
and heart working synergistically in a human being evoke that creative
inspiration.
In the table above, Ray II (love-wisdom) is
represented by the “Wise Teacher”—the individual who embodies soul
energies. The Roman numeral II signifies the two poles (or pillars) of
creation—spirit and matter. As in the glyph for Gemini, these “poles”
appear to be separate but are, in esoteric astrology, related through the
unseen force of love. Love is the attractive, magnetic force that infuses
the conscious soul. It is of a higher vibration than the mind, which the
soul uses to bring ideas into the world of form.
Ray V is the energy of the mind, symbolized by the
bespectacled Scientist-Researcher in the ray table. This Ray governs Mind
at every level—from abstract to concrete. The V-shaped funnel above the
head of the cartoon scientist illustrates the path that ideas take as they
descend into the mind from subtler (more abstract) to denser (more concrete)
levels.
Originating in spiritual realms, ideas descend from
the formless realm into the realm of form, taking on subtle (mental) form as
they enter the mind to become “thought-forms.” As they descend downward,
the funnel (V) narrows. Thoughts become sufficiently focused and concrete
to be registered in the physical brain. Ray V acts as an opening through
which higher inspiration can pour into the mind of the creative thinker.
Albert Einstein exemplified the enhanced capacity of the individual whose mind
is aligned with the heart in service to a greater good.
The Roman numeral VII—combining Mind (V) and Heart
(II)—conveys this idea of heart-mind alignment symbolically. In the
science of the Rays, the number seven signifies the process of manifestation
through which spirit and matter combine to form the physical world. Ray
VII symbolizes Spirit (the Life Force itself) imbuing form with “living
energy.” In the human being, the fusion of heart and mind reflects this
process of “creation” on a microcosmic level. Individuals who align with
their higher nature contribute to the spiritualization of the planet by
becoming vehicles through which the light of higher awareness can enter the
world.
The equal sign in this cartoon suggests how the
“better world” will come into being. In esoteric astrology Aquarius (h)
is ruled by Ray VII—the Ray of Ceremonial Order and Magic. The energies
of both the constellation Aquarius, and the Seventh Ray that governs it, are
related to “the magic of manifestation.” Their combined effect can be
seen at work in all who are awakening to the soul’s higher purpose and working
for the common good. Over the next two millennia—as the Age of
Aquarius unfolds—it is prophesied that humanity will fulfill its destiny by
bringing spirit into matter through the fusion of mind and heart, thereby
creating “heaven on earth.”
