3.1 microvita,

November 27,1994

A: In this material world, there are different types of carbonic structures. Those structures are based upon more subtle structures which consist of even more minute substances. Now, there are two kinds of structures, there are living structures and there are inanimate structures. The inanimate structures are part of the process of saincara. They are those elements that exist when the 5 fundamental elements have coalesced in the material existence and matter is formed. Then the objects, which are thus materialized in the process of saincara, become inanimate objects. When the inanimate objects are condensed, through the process of clash and cohesion, there becomes the production of carbonic life and the development of living substance. The life is formed from the material objects.

You may ask do these material substances, these material objects have mind? It may be said that they are a part and parcel of the Cosmic Mind. They are the most condensed form of Cosmic Mind but they do not have individuality, they are expressions of the Cosmic Mind. Only when that matter becomes condensed, through the process of clash and cohesion, are the life giving particles formed. When those particles are formed, then the living substance comes into being and when that happens, individual mind is formed and jiiva'tma begins to exist. This creation of little minds, the baby minds, the micro cosmic reflections of the Cosmic Mind, when these are formed, then life occurs, life comes into existence, individual life, individual mind. Before that the process of evolution is the condensation of Cosmic Mind. So, the material objects are composed of a condensed form of Cosmic Mind.

The unit beings are also composed of Cosmic Mind but Cosmic Mind has taken upon itself the mirror like quality of unit mind. The sense of I feeling, of I exist, comes into existence in these little minds, these little beings. Now, the carbon atom is associated with life and the development of living form. This is because of the blending of microvita and atomic structure. Atomic structure has been condensed. Matter has reached a certain critical point in which there is the formation of microvita, little particles of life, and these particles change the functioning of the atomic structure. Though they are very small, still they change the functioning of the atomic structure so that the living substance is composed of a different atomic structuring than the other matter. This is the development of carbonic life form.

The carbon atoms carry the microvitum, the little life from which the unit life, the jiiva life, is formed. In this formation the sense of separate existence comes about. "I exist. I am a little being in this vast universe. I exist as a separate entity, a jiiva'tma, a small reflection of the great universe. The small reflection of the great mind of the Cosmic Entity is there in my small existence." This is the feeling of the jiiva'tma, the self aware experience.

So, this sense of mind, of separate expression through mental faculty comes about because of the development of the carbon atom which is developed through clash and cohesion. It is an atomic structure through which microvitum have been introduced and it is able to carry the wavelength of living substance. Thus the carbonic forces carry the waves of introversial mental expression and life force. The inanimate objects are not without their own existence, their own mental structure. But that mental structure is not individual, it is cosmic. In fact, though they appear to be made out of material substance, that very material substance is made out of mind, Cosmic Mind. So this may be a clock, or a picture book or a writing tablet, but what is it really? It is Cosmic Mind condensed into material substance and then formed in a particular pattern. When the condensation is sufficient in those atomic structures, then living structures will be formed. The atomic structure will alter to contain the life force through the development of microvitum. So you see, like this, there is a transition from the modality of saincara to prati- saincara.

There is no separate form of evolution for inanimate objects, only they are in the rule of saincara. They are in the rule of de-evolutionary forces. When they once again begin to move towards the Infinite Being rather than away, they become dominated by the forces of cohesion, the introversial forces. The extroversial forces are dominating saincara, the introversial forces are dominating prati-saincara. So mind is present all along, but its particular form is somewhat different. Cosmic Mind is present in all aspects of this universe, but individual mind is not. Does this answer the question?
