"The wheel of re-entry into physical life turns many times for each Soul. Through the various lives and experiences, The Soul learns and assimilates the specific lessons required to enable It to evolve to a higher level."
"The process has continued for millions of years. Its beginning was on The Continent of Atlantis where The Race first began. It has continued through all the phases of civilization and must continue still for a brief time."
"Once there was no rebirth, for there was no death in the physical sense. All men who had been created from the beginning continued to exist in physical form, and none had ever experienced any of the other realms or regions of Creation. In this early phase of man's history, the individual humans did not possess Souls in the sense of a continuing, eternal Entity. If the early men had relinquished their physical existence, nothing would have remained at any level."
"In the course of His early developement before He attained the gift of The Soul, Man was led deeply into error by other Beings Whose home was in one of the Higher Levels of Creation. These Beings represented only a part of the other Group, because most refused to take part in the debauchery which was planned."
"The other Group of Beings had been created at an earlier stage, in the sense of physical time, and, prior to the errors just mentioned, had existed at a level of bliss that Mankind cannot conceive. But for some of Them, this bliss of perfection was not enough. They wished to have experience of all facets of the created world, and a plan was prepared to tempt the more recent Human Group into 'sin' and debauchery."
"The first Group of Beings had been given eternal Soul status from Their creation, while at the same time The Human Group was fully mortal. When the debauchery resulted in the creation of new beings with a parent in each group, it was not clear whether these offspring should be mortal or immortal (having a Higher Self). A decision was taken to grant immortal Souls to all of the offspring of the debauchery between The Races, and this edict was simultaneously extended to all of the previously mortal Human Group."
"But something in return for this inestimable gift had to be extracted. In payment for the new status, The Human Soul Group had to agree to The Karmic Law and to the pattern of rebirth involving physical death. The Members of the first Group of Beings Who did not take part in the debauchery had to agree to act as Guides and Teachers for the new human Souls throughout the rebirth cycle until it was completed as a kind of penance for the 'sins' of Their brothers who had fallen."
"Christian Theology names These Guides The Guardian Angels. The ones who fell and committed the act of disobedience were shut away from the bliss of perfection they had known and were confined to the area of Creation closest to The Earth for the duration of the cycle. Most of them were to have the opportunity to regain the earlier state through sacrifice and suffering if they chose to do so, with the sure knowledge that if they remained unrepentant to the end they would surely perish along with the 'evils' they had spawned."
