EMOTION: THE LIFE JUICE
OF EVIL, GERMS AND PEOPLE
Emotion provides a
"mystical" vitality for all growing creatures in much the same way
that electricity provides the "life of our radio. Emotion, as we know it
on our level of existence, has been refined and converted so that it will drive
the animal-machine. Electricity, for instance, has a legion of forms.
In your television
set alone the energy is changed many times by each component before it is
compatible with the higher elements in that circuit; while in nature the
components are actually created and maintained by that power.
Having been
stimulated by a primordial push or pressure, each creature, all the way down to
the one-celled living things, develops through this emotion stuff and then
exudes a life signal aura to support other levels of living things. That is to say, having received the impulse
to grow and maintain its place in the scheme of things, it simply radiates and
extends a modified form of that life impulse to support, affect, and change
even higher life forms.
Emotion is the
highest form of this vitality on the animal level. We recognize it in people as
fear, anger, and excitement. But these
are strictly animal values, certainly not really human. This invisible, unspoken language of life
communication can be traced down the steps of evolution to a beginning life
source, life cause, and life plan, even chemicals react to each other's
presence.
Animals have no
problems when it comes to their emotions. Indeed, were it not for emotion they
would cease to exi3t, because each emotional impulse contains this message of
life.
A radio receiver
receives a "coded" vibration from the transmitter and the
"crystal" decodes the message to make it understandable to the
ear. In much the same way, emotion is
that "understandable" life signal and life support which the body of
each creature receives, grows by, refines, and broadcasts out on a new wave
length to the other components in nature's plan.
Emotion is an
essential vitality. It provides the power
to drive, change, and shape each creature.
The energy power we presently
recognize as emotion must pass through many stages to become modified for the
use of various bodies at different levels of evolution. A gasoline engine will "recognize"
gasoline, but it will not "stir" to life on unrefined fuel.
