Book excerpt: Like bricks already baked, of various qualities, shapes and colour, that are no longer formless clay but have become fit units of a future wall, the cloud of dust and gas between stars is the storehouse of the materials from which new stars, planets, and other celestial bodies are produced. It is thus that star-clusters are destroyed by the Architects of the visible Universe, but to be rebuild and fashioned into new Worlds. The matter within our Solar system is in an entirely different state from that which is outside or beyond the system. Since the three dimensions (length-breadth-thickness) belong only to one characteristic of matter, i.e., extension, common sense justly rebels against the suggestion that there can be more than three. The Septenary Constitution of Space will become visible when the so-called “fourth dimension of space,” i.e., the Sixth characteristic of matter and harbinger of the Sixth Sense, is fully awakened. The turn of a four-dimensional plane of the world (the realm of atoms) is near, but till then the puzzle of the astronomer will continue until his concepts reach the natural dimensions of visible invisible space in its septenary completeness. Gravity is an obsolete law in starry heaven. Among the materialists, gravity is the summit of the all-potent imponderables. But among the students of the Sacred Science, gravity in one of the attributes of differentiation manifested as the Law of Attraction and Repulsion between various states of matter. The arrangement of the nebulae suggests that some other force than gravitation was the active agent. The Solar System is as much the Microcosm of One Macrocosm, as man is the former when compared with his own little solar cosmos.
