a.)  “It thus becomes apparent how
perfect is the analogy between the
processes of Nature in the Kosmos
and in the individual man. The latter
lives through his life-cycle, and
dies.

b.)  “His "higher principles,"
corresponding in the development of a
planetary chain to the cycling Monads,
pass into Devachan, which corresponds
to the "Nirvana" and states of rest
intervening between two chains.

c.)  “The Man's lower "principles"
are disintegrated in time and are
used by Nature again for the
formation of new human principles,
and the same process takes place in
the disintegration and formation of
Worlds. Analogy is thus the surest
guide to the comprehension of the
Occult teachings.”
b.)  “… If he does not realize suddenly
that in his rushing descent he may
reach such a low level that all his higher
centers will become silent, his higher
individuality will lose contact with
the vehicles that are necessary for
its nourishment and those elements
which enter the whirl of its auric
surroundings, and finally, it become
separated from its lower principles.

(i)  “Deprived of their cohesive power,
the lower principles of such a
soulless entity will decompose and
will be reworked as cosmic dross.

(ii)  “The detached higher
individuality itself, after many
cycles of time, may receive a new
possibility for incarnation on
another planet, but it will have to
build its vehicles, or sheaths, for
incarnation, beginning with the
lowest kingdoms of nature, until
finally the human form shall be built
in which it can again manifest.”
