d.)  “When the spirit cannot push
itself to outlive its encumbrances,
it piles up solid obstacles
. A balance
is maintained between the striving and
its result.

e.)  
Thus, the wings of the spirit
provide the power of flight into the
higher spheres
, but the weight of a
burden marks the steps of him who
strides to the lower spheres.”


4.)  Letters of Helena Roerich Vol. 1 & 2:

a.)  “It is essential to awaken the
human spirit
! Verily, the destiny of the
planet is in the hands of humanity itself
!
If the resurrection of the spirit takes
place within the next short decades, the
inevitable catastrophe may be only
partial, as it was in the times of Lemuria
and Atlantis;
otherwise, we shall
have to move to another planet.
2.)  Agni Yoga, Infinity II (1930), 39.:

a.)  “All that is outworn is subject to
the law of replacement.

b.)  “All that does not progress is
subject to the law of replacement.

c.)  The cosmic creativeness so
definitely foresees the utilization of the
energies that it substitutes one for the
other, without delay. …



3.)  Agni Yoga, Infinity II (1930), 125.:

a.)  When the spirit surrounds its own
power in the seed by an accumulation
of encumbrances
, it renounces its
striving
.

b.)  
So burdensome are the
encumbrances that
the spirit loses
access to the Towers
.

c.)  
Hence, those who come to know
this, advance only through
transmutation of the Ego.
