MICROVITA AND PRANA
May 12, 1995
Q: What is the relationship of Microvita to prana? It almost seems to be the same thing.
Microvita and prana are both life force. But, microvita is the essential substance from which prana is generated. Do you know, microvita has different stages? At the first stage, in the psycho-physical stage, it is life force. When that life force expresses or manifests in relation to a physical structure, it is called prana. But when it is being generated from the material universe, it should be called microvita because it is just that, tiny particles of living substance on which the life force is carried. It is the media for living substance. Now, when it is associated with a physical structure, it may express as prana or life force within that structure. But this is only the first stage of microvita. In second stage, it is psycho-physical and has no physical space. It is the media for the development of mind. And in the third stage, it is psycho-spiritual and on it, the inferential waves of this manifest universe ride. This becomes the media for the direct expression of Cosmic Mind. So you see, prana is only one function of microvita. When it is associated in the psycho-physical plane with the living beings or physical entities, then microvita function as prana. It can be enhanced or decreased within a physical structure, but when it is outside a physical structure, you will not call it prana, then it is microvita.
So you see, the development of prana in association with living beings is part of the function of microvita. This is a correct understanding. But microvita does more than this. Ideas are also carried on the waves of microvita and spiritual or causal emanations of the Cosmic Mind are in the media of psycho-spiritual microvita. The inferential waves are carried thus. So in its crudest form, when associated with living structures and not floating free as in its psycho-physical form, it becomes prana. In its initial development, microvita will not be associated with material structures but will alter the atomic development, so that life is present in association with atomic structures. Then, when that association is complete, this life force may be called prana. But microvita does not maintain itself as prana. It is unstable. It will continue to modify to more and more subtle expressions due to the draw of consciousness, the evolutionary pull of Parama Parus'a towards the Supreme Nucleus. And so it will mutate and mutate again to a more and more refined media. Henceforth, you will see, that this microvita is the media for introversial evolution as in the physical world, the extroversial phase of evolution. The five fundamental factors mutate one to the other in a crudifying process due to greater and greater binding and the influence of Tama guna. When the binding is most extreme, again the process shifts and then, in a similar fashion, the substance mutates. But in this case, it is not the influence of Tama guna which increases, but the influence of Sattva guna. That is the unstable factor in the introversial phase of evolution. I think this has answered the question.
Q: Is there any way to detect the 'shadow' microvita substance which accumulates around atomic structures, for example, Kirlian photography?
It can be detected. It is not what is seen in Kirlian photography. This photography is indicating some subtle body development, not prana, not microvita. This shadow is more subtle. It is not a sheath, not a body. It is the very life force itself and the mind stuff in the atomic level, it may be perceived. It will be perceived but as yet the technologies are not sufficiently advanced. I would say that in the area of physics there is room for this advancement. The microscope that can perceive this is not at hand. If one wishes to perceive the shadow atom, there is one way. It may be observed by the use of refractory particles so that the reflection of its existence may be seen. But this requires a refraction process, a refractory instrument. The refractory device will create images or reflections of known existence but in far greater and more refined detail. In this, the wave becomes visible. But the technology is not yet fully developed. It requires a complex prismatic refraction which will divide the refracted particles and subdivide until the most subtle waves become visible or the reflection becomes perceivable. You see, microvita is not physical, even in its most dense form. It is psycho-physical. Only a shadow in the physical universe. Yet technologies may be developed which will replicate this shadow. It is not the same as a subtle body. It is atomic shadowing. You will see what is now a mystery will become a simple fact. Don't worry for it, it is bound to happen.
Q: You have mentioned that with microvita, the genetic code of living things may be altered. You have also mentioned that tampering with the genetic code has caused the extinction of races on other planets. This is an important topic on this planet at present. Can you comment on this?
This is a very important topic. There are so many different genetic codings and so it is very complex. If the boy sees the cabinet where the guns of the father are kept, he goes to play with the guns, puts the bullet in and pretends he is his father shooting the bullet. He may severely injure himself, may he not? It is dangerous. So what does the father do? He puts a lock on the cabinet to keep the boy out. And why is there a lock on the cabinet? Because the boy can hurt himself. His knowledge, his skill is not sufficient to play with the gun. He does not know its purpose. He does not understand how to handle it. He is not properly trained. He does not have the skill nor the intelligence as yet. He must grow to a young man where the body is strong and the mind is more advanced. Then he may learn the use of the gun and then, still, he must have the moral character to use it. Like this, the science of genetics is the same. It is best that the child does not play with the gun and it is best that living beings who are not developed do not play with genetics.
You know, biological machines can be made, biological development can be done, all manner of things can be done but they should not be done by undeveloped beings. So, to ensure against this, a lock has been placed on the cabinet. It has been mentioned that it can occur, it does occur. Not that human beings should do this. Not at this stage. Do you know that there are many races who have come to severe difficulties because they have tampered where they should not and so they have brought about their own demise? Even on this planet some of this has already occurred to a small degree. I would say, human beings are not ready for this technology and will not be ready for this technology for some time to come because two things are needed to work with genetics and with genetic material and microvita in such a way that results are positive. One is mental development. There must be psychic and mental development. Intelligence must be far beyond what human beings at this stage possess. Secondly, moral development. Both must be there. There must be sufficient harmony, sufficient parallelism with the Cosmic Mind and the Cosmic Intent or else all efforts will result in disaster. If the boy reaches for the gun, he has become intelligent, he has grown a bit, his mind is clear, but he is a reckless youth with no sense of morality. He will only bring harm and destruction by his actions though he is perfectly capable to use the gun because he has the intelligence. If he does not have the morality, he cannot use it wisely.
So, at this stage, human beings lack two things. They lack the intelligence and they lack the morality. Genetic alteration beyond the more simple forms is not for this race at this time. But you should not worry for it. There is a lock on the cabinet and it is not easily picked. When these two factors have improved, then the cabinet may be opened. The one possessing the key to the lock may come and unlock it and teach the human beings how to use. But this is not for this time or this place. There are those that use biological technology and use it very successfully. The science of the alteration of the physical universe is a complex one. There are those that wield it with great success and there are those who have destroyed themselves because they have attempted to yield it when these two qualities were not sufficiently developed in them to wield it. Therefore, those who guard the secrets of creation guard them well lest a child destroy themselves by using what they are too young to use. There are guards against this. It is not advisable that human beings at this juncture utilize genetic technology. What is being done at this stage by scientists, is not harmful. It is most rudimentary and no fundamental alterations or serious breaches have occurred. That is to say, the secrets are well guarded. They will not be unlocked at this stage. What you consider genetics is not what I am speaking of.
Nirmegha: What does he mean by genetic coding then?
KP: I think he means the microvita level coding of individual genes.
Nirmegha': He says that is correct.
