MATERIAL PHYSICAL
Material consciousness is mostly subconscient, but the part of it that is conscious is mechanical, inertly moved by habits
or by the forces of the lower nature. Always repeating the same unintelligent and unenlightened movements, it isattached
to the routine and established rule of what already exists, unwilling to change, unwilling to receive the Light
or obey the higher Force. Or, if it is willing, then it is unable. Or, if it is able, then it turns the action
given to it by the Light or the Force into a new mechanical routine and so takes out of it all soul and life. It
is obscure, stupid, indolent, full of ignorance and inertia, darkness and slowness of tamas.
It is inert, conservative, does not want to move, to change — it clings to its habits (what people call their character) or its habits (habitual movements) cling to it and repeat themselves like a clock working in a persistent mechanical way. When you have cleared your vital somewhat, things go down and stick there.
If there is faith, quietude, openness in the rest of the being, the material
is bound to open also. Tamas, inertia, ignorance, stupidity, littleness, obstruction to the true movement are universal
characteristics of the material consciousness, so long as it is not enlightened, regenerated and transformed from
above...
The physical consciousness is constitutionally ignorant — it may be made to understand, but it goes on forgetting
and feeling as if it had never known — till the Force and Light finally get hold of it and then it forgets no more.
Infernal elements, demon powers are there.
Man's lower nature hides these awful guests.
