Helena Blavatsky, a member of the Russian nobility, received metaphysical knowledge from her own exceptional extrasensory perceptions and Eastern spiritual Masters. In 1873, she came to the U.S. and was co-founder of the worldwide Theosophical Society. Her writings are difficult to grasp but when you find a passage, such as the one below, you can connect this to new revelations about our ability to create.
“The Universe is worked and guided from within outwards.
As above so it is below, as in heaven so on earth; and man — the microcosm and miniature copy of the macrocosm — is the living witness to this Universal Law and to the mode of its action.
We see that every external motion, act, gesture, whether voluntary or mechanical, organic or mental, is produced and preceded by internal feeling or emotion, will or volition, and thought or mind.
As no outward motion or change, when normal, in man’s external body can take place unless provoked by an inward impulse, given through one of the three functions named, so with the external or manifested Universe.
The whole Kosmos is guided, controlled, and animated by almost endless series of Hierarchies of sentient Beings, each having a mission to perform, and who — whether we call them Angels, Archangels or active perfected manifestations of the One Supreme Energy — are ‘messengers’ in the sense only that they are the agents of Karmic and Cosmic Laws.
They are devoid of the feeling of personality and of the human emotional nature — two purely earthly characteristics. Those ‘perfected’ ones have become free from those feelings, because (a) they have no longer fleshly bodies and (b) the pure spiritual element being left untrammelled and more free, they are less influenced by the Universe than man can ever be,
unless he is an Adept (men who have developed and perfected their physical, mental psychic and spiritual organizations to the utmost possible degree) who keeps his two personalities — the spiritual and the physical– entirely separated.”
