But our Kurd replied: "No, for nothing on Earth will I stop. Didn't I pay my last two cents for them? Even if my soul departs from my body I shall still go on eating". 92 BTG I

During the last weeks, while lying in bed, my body quite sick, I mentally drafted a summary of my future writings and thought out the form and sequence of their exposition, and I decided to make the chief hero of the first series of my writings ... do you know whom? ... the Great Beelzebub Himself — even in spite of the fact that this choice of mine might from the very beginning evoke in the mentation of most of my readers such mental associations as must engender in them all kinds of automatic contradictory impulses from the action of that totality of data infallibly formed in the psyche of people owing to all the established abnormal conditions of our external life, which data are in general crystallized in people owing to the famous what is called "religious morality" existing and rooted in their life, and in them, consequently, there must inevitably be formed data for an inexplicable hostility towards me personally. 185 BTG I

"Your Right Reverence of course knows that this 'Madcap' comet always leaves in its track a great deal of 'Zilnotrago' [The word "Zilnotrago" is the name of a special gas similar to what we call "cyanic acid".] which on entering the planetary body of a being disorganizes most of its functions until all the 'Zilnotrago' is volatilized out of it. 284 BTG III

"The external form of these three-centered beings is like that of a 'Toosook', that is, it resembles a kind of 'double sphere', the upper sphere serving to contain the principal organs of the whole planetary body, and the other, the lower sphere, the organs for the transformation of the first and second being-foods. 332 BTG III

"And as for the body of the ship itself, its long existence can certainly not be guaranteed". 449 BTG VI

"It is interesting to note that the said being-brains are found in the same parts of the planetary body of these three-brained beings who arise on the planet Earth as in us, namely: "1. The brain predetermined by Great Nature for the concentration and further actualizing of the first holy force of the sacred Triamazikamno, called the Holy-Affirming, is localized and found in the head. "2. The second brain, which transforms and crystallizes the second holy force of the sacred Triamazikamno, namely, the Holy-Denying, is placed in their common presences, also as in us, along the whole of their back in what is called the 'spinal column'. "3. But as regards the place of concentration and source for the further manifestation of the third holy force of the sacred Triamazikamno, namely, the Holy-Reconciling — the exterior form of this being-brain in the three-brained beings there bears no resemblance whatever to ours. 918 BTG XVII

"It must be remarked that in the primordial three-brained beings there, this said being-brain was localized in the same part of their planetary body as in us, and had an exterior form exactly similar to our own; but for many reasons which you will be able to understand for yourself during the course of my further talks, Great Nature was compelled little by little to regenerate this brain and to give it the form which it now has in the contemporary beings. 919 BTG XVII

"This being-brain in the contemporary three-brained beings there is not localized in one common mass, as is proper to the presences of all the other three-brained beings of our Great Universe, but is localized in parts, according to what is called 'Specific Functioning', and each such part is localized in a different place of their whole planetary body. 920 BTG XVII

"It is interesting to notice that most of the separate parts of this being-brain are localized in them, just in that place of their planetary body where such a normal being-brain should be, namely. in the region of their breast, and the totality of these nerve-nodes in their breast, they call the 'Solar Plexus'. 923 BTG XVII

"The crystallizations arising in their presences from the first and from the third holy forces go almost entirely for the service only of the common-cosmic Trogoautoegocratic-process, while for the coating of their own presences there are only the crystallizations of the second part of the Omnipresent-Okidanokh, namely, of the 'Holy-Denying'; and hence it is that the majority of them remain with presences consisting of the planetary body alone, and thus are, for themselves, destroyed forever. 925 BTG XVII

"On the inner side of these diving suits, at the ends of the bolts, there were, it appeared, special plates which pressed against parts of our planetary body in a certain way. 986 BTG XVIII

"In all my three 'being-centers' — namely, in the three centers localized in the presence of every three-centered being, and which exist under the names of 'Thinking', 'Feeling', and 'Moving' centers — there began to be perceived separately and independently in each of them in a very strange and unusual way very definite impressions that there was taking place in the separate parts of my whole planetary body an independent process of the sacred 'Rascooarno', and that the cosmic crystallizations which composed the presences of these parts were flowing 'in vain'. 1004 BTG XVIII

"From the moment that my essence began to perceive impressions directly and to constate independently that from what was proceeding, there was being entirely destroyed, as it were, in my common presence, firstly, the parts of my planetary body, and then, little by little, also the localizations of the 'second' and 'third' being-centers. At the same time, a constatation was definitely made that the functioning of these latter centers passed gradually to my 'thinking-center' and became proper to it, with the consequence that the 'thinking-center' with the increasing intensity of its functioning, became the 'unique-powerful-perceiver' of everything actualized outside of itself, and the autonomous initiator of the constating of everything proceeding in the whole of my presence as well as outside of it. 1006 BTG XVIII

"As it afterwards proved, my friend Gornahoor Harharkh had made a mistake while pulling the mentioned levers and switches and had made certain parts of his planetary body more tense than was necessary. In consequence, his presence together with everything on him, had received a shock and also the momentum given by the shock, and owing to the 'tempo' proceeding in his presence from taking in the 'second-being-food' and to the absence of any resistance in that absolutely empty space, he began to drift, or, as I have already said, to flounder like a 'puppy-who-has-fallen-into-a-deep-pond'. " 1010 BTG XVIII

"Well, then, while floundering, Gornahoor Harharkh, with great difficulty, and only by means of a special and very complicated maneuver which he made, finally managed to get his planetary body, burdened with the various unusually heavy appliances, down on to the chair again, and this time he fixed it all with the aid of special screws which were on the chair for that purpose; and when we were both more or less arranged and communication was possible between us by means of the said artificial-connectors, he first drew my attention to those apparatuses hanging over the table which I told you were very much like the Momonodooars. 1015 BTG XVIII

"Going into my friend's room one sad morning, this old man saw that he had been killed and that his planetary body had been hacked to pieces. 1258 BTG XIX

"But during the day I feared that the same or other unconscionable beings might commit further outrages on my friend's planetary body, so I decided at least to prevent the possible actualization of what I feared. 1261 BTG XIX

"I therefore immediately hired several suitable beings for a great sum of money and, unbeknown to anybody else, had his planetary body removed and temporarily placed in my Selchan, that is, on my raft which was moored not far away on the river Oksoseria, and which I had not disposed of because I had intended to sail on it from there to the sea Kolhidious to our ship Occasion. 1262 BTG XIX

"As there was no reason for me to stay there any longer, I decided to return immediately to the sea Kolhidious and there to consider what to do further with the planetary body of my friend. 1266 BTG XIX

"Thanks to this etherogram a very strange idea came into my head — namely, I thought that instead of disposing of the planetary body of my friend on the planet Earth, I might take it with me and give it to the presence of the planet Mars. 1268 BTG XIX

'I decided to carry out this idea of mine as I was afraid that my friend's enemies who hated him might make a search for his planetary body, and if they had chanced to learn where it had been given to the presence of that planet, or, as your favorites say, 'buried', then doubtless they would have found it and perpetrated some atrocity on it. 1269 BTG XIX

"And so, from the sea Kolhidious, I soon ascended on the ship Occasion to the planet Mars, where our beings and several kind Martians, who had already learned of the events which had taken place on the planet Earth, paid due respect to the planetary body I had taken with me. 1270 BTG XIX

"It was just then that the aforementioned Sacred Individual was sent to them who, having been coated with the planetary body of a terrestrial being, was called, as I have said, Saint Buddha. 1469 BTG XXI

"The coating of the said Sacred Individual with a planetary body of a terrestrial three-brained being was actualized there several centuries before my first visit to the country Pearl-land". 1470 BTG XXI

Whereupon Beelzebub, with a smile inherent to him said as follows: "Concerning the 'typicality' of the three-brained beings for whom I have adopted this verbal definition, I shall explain it to you at the proper time, but meanwhile know that this word designates every already 'definitized' common presence of a three-brained being, both those consisting only of the single planetary body as well as those whose higher being-bodies are already coated in them and in which for some reason or other, data have not been crystallized for the Divine impulse of 'Objective-Conscience'. " 1473 BTG XXI

"And this half of a word reached them in the following way: "Saint Buddha among other things explained to the beings of Pearl-land how and to what part of the body of their ancestors the said famous organ Kundabuffer had been attached. 1543 BTG XXI

"During the period of the aforesaid Krentonalnian position of the planet Earth, these wild beings there are wide awake and take their first being-food; and since, by that time, they had already become accustomed to use for this purpose almost exclusively the planetary bodies of weaker beings of other forms arising on their planet, they were always trying, during that period, to get hold of such a being in order to use his planetary body for the satisfaction of that need of theirs. 1571 BTG XXII

"When the companions of the immured learned of the cessation of the existence of any one of them, his planetary body was removed from the improvised sepulchre and immediately, in the place of the being thus self-destroyed, another similar unfortunate fanatic of that maleficent religious teaching of theirs was immured; and the ranks of these unfortunate 'fanatic monks' were being filled up by other members of that peculiar sect, constantly coming from Pearl-land. 1614 BTG XXII

"Concerning the possibility of this abnormal blending of two different kinds of Exioeharies for the conception and arising of a new planetary body of a being, it is necessary to explain to you also the following. 1709 BTG XXIII

"These indications of theirs, and also their, so to say, 'warning counsels' consisted in the following: "When a function became disharmonized or only began to be disharmonized in the presence of any being of their flock, then this being applied to the Astrologer of his district, who, on the basis of the said Oblekioonerish made by him, and on the basis of the changes expected, according to his calculations, in the processes proceeding in the. atmosphere, flowing in their turn from the action of the other planets of their solar system, indicated just what he had to do to his planetary body, at which definite periods of the Krentonalnian movements of their planet — as for instance, in which direction to lie, how to breathe, what movements preferably to make, with which types to avoid relations, and many things of the same kind. 1756 BTG XXIII

"Analyzing himself in this manner, he began to recall just which impulses evoked which reactions in him, in his independently spiritualized parts, that is to say, in his body, in his feelings and in his thoughts, and the state of his essence when he reacted to anything more or less attentively, and how and when, in consequence of such reactions of his, he had manifested consciously with his 'I' or had acted automatically under the direction of his instinct alone. 1797 BTG XXIII

"It represented an allegorical being, each part of whose planetary body was composed of a part of the planetary body of some definite form of being existing there, but of the parts of those beings of other forms who, according to the crystallized notions of the three-brained beings there, had to perfection one or another being-function. 1862 BTG XXIII

"The main mass of the planetary body of the said allegorical being was represented by the trunk of a being there of definite form, called 'Bull'. 1863 BTG XXIII

"Further he continued: "'Each part of this allegorical figure gives to every member of our society in all the three independently associating parts of his common presence, namely, in the body, in the thoughts, and in the feelings, a shock for corresponding associations for those separate cognizances which in their totality can alone give us the possibility of gradually getting rid of those undesirable factors present in every one of us, both those transmitted to us by heredity as well as those acquired by ourselves personally, which gradually engender within us impulses undesirable for us, and as a consequence of which we are not as we might be. 1867 BTG XXIII

"The point is that, even before this fifth sojourn of mine there, that is to say before that period when Babylon, as I have told you, flourished in every respect, those beings who became learned and were regarded by others as learned were not such beings as become and are regarded as learned everywhere in the Universe, nor such as first became learned even on your planet, namely, such beings as acquire by their conscious labors and intentional sufferings the ability to contemplate the details of all that exists from the point of view of World-arising and World-existence, owing chiefly to which, they perfect their highest body to the corresponding gradation of the sacred measure of Objective Reason in order that they might later sense as much about cosmic truths as their higher being-body is perfected. 1932 BTG XXIV

"In the dualist or idealist teaching, it was said that within the coarse body of the being-man, there is a fine and invisible body, which is just the soul. 2033 BTG XXIV

"This fine body or soul, it was said further, must make a corresponding payment for every action of the 'physical body' whether voluntary or involuntary, and every man, already at birth, consists of these two bodies, namely, the physical body and the soul. 2035 BTG XXIV

"When the man dies, these spirits leave his physical body on the Earth and take his soul to God who exists somewhere 'up-in-Heaven'. 2043 BTG XXIV

"It was seven centuries before the Babylonian events I have spoken of, that there was actualized in the planetary body of a three-brained being there a 'definitized' conception of a sacred Individual named Ashiata Shiemash, who became there in his turn a Messenger from Above, and who is now already one of the Highest Most Very Saintly common-cosmic Sacred Individuals. 2084 BTG XXV

"Ashiata Shiemash had his conception in the planetary body of a boy of a poor family descended from what is called the 'Sumerian Race', in a small place then called 'Pispascana' situated not far from Babylon. 2085 BTG XXV

"'To me, a trifling particle of the whole of the GREAT WHOLE, it was commanded from Above to be coated with the planetary body of a three-centered being of this planet and to assist all other such beings arising and existing upon it to free themselves from the consequences of the properties of that organ which, for great and important reasons, was actualized in the presences of their ancestors. 2117 BTG XXVI

"'When I completed my seventeenth year, I began as commanded from Above, to prepare my planetary body in order, during my responsible existence, "to be able to be" impartial. 2119 BTG XXVI

"'So, when I finally became a responsible being, I decided that before making my choice among the mentioned sacred ways, I would bring my planetary body into the state of the sacred "Ksherknara", that is, into the state of "all-brained-balanced-being-perceptiveness", and only when already in that state, to choose the way for my further activities. 2123 BTG XXVI

"On this still surviving marble were inscriptions concerning the sacred being-impulses called Faith, Love, and Hope, namely: " 'Faith', 'Love', and 'Hope' - Faith of consciousness is freedom - Faith of feeling is weakness - Faith of body is stupidity. Love of consciousness evokes the same in response - Love of feeling evokes the opposite - Love of body depends only on type and polarity. Hope of consciousness is strength - Hope of feeling is slavery - Hope of body is disease. 2159 BTG XXVI

"'And they must be suffering, because the completed actualizing of the manifestation of such a being-impulse in us can proceed only from the constant struggle of two quite opposite what are called "complexes-of-the-functioning" of those two sources which are of quite opposite origin, namely, between the processes of the functioning of our planetary body itself and the parallel functionings arising progressively from the coating and perfecting of our higher being-bodies within this planetary body of ours, which functionings in their totality actualize every kind of Reason in the three-centered beings. 2205 BTG XXVII

"And it proceeded in the following way: "All the beings of this planet then began to work in order to have in their consciousness this Divine function of genuine conscience, and for this purpose, as everywhere in the Universe, they transubstantiated in themselves what are called the 'being-obligolnian-strivings' which consist of the following five, namely: "The first striving: to have in their ordinary being-existence everything satisfying and really necessary for their planetary body. 2256 BTG XXVII

"In general, those independent individuals are called and defined by the word Hasnamuss in whom, among what are called 'Individual-impulses', a certain 'something' arises, which participates in what is called the ,Completed formation' of independent individualities in the common presences of three-brained beings both of the highest possible coating as well as of those who consist only of the planetary body alone. 2367 BTG XXVIII

"The first kind of Hasnamuss-individual is a three-brained being who while acquiring in his common presence that something, still consists only of his planetary body and who, during the process of his sacred Rascooarno is subject to the corresponding consequences of the presence in him of the properties of this something and is thus destroyed forever such as he is. 2373 BTG XXVIII

"The second kind of Hasnamuss-individual is that Kesdjan body of a three-brained being which is coated in his common presence with the participation of that same something and which, acquiring - as is proper to such a cosmic arising-the property of 'Toorinoorino', that is, nondecomposition in any sphere of that planet on which he arose, has to exist, by being formed again and again in a certain way, such as he is, until this certain something will have been eliminated from him. 2374 BTG XXVIII

"For the Hasnamuss of the first kind, namely, when this something is acquired by a being still consisting only of just a planetary body alone, the decomposition of this planetary body of his does not proceed according to the general rule, that is to say, the cessation of the functioning in his organism of every kind of sensed-impulse does not proceed simultaneously with the approach of the 'sacred Rascooarno', that is, death. 2379 BTG XXVIII

"In addition to this, after the final death, the 'disintegration-of-all-the-active-elements' of which the given planetary body was formed, proceeds firstly much more slowly than usual, and secondly, with the inextinguishable action-only lessened in proportion to the volatilization of the active elements of the mentioned 'sensed-impulses' he had during life. 2381 BTG XXVIII

"For the second kind of Hasnamuss-individual, that is, when the Kesdjan-body of a three-brained being becomes such, the corresponding consequences are that such an indeed unfortunate arising, freed from the planetary body of a three-brained being, on the one hand not having the possibility of perfecting himself independently of and without a planetary coating, does not succeed in eliminating from his presence this maleficent something even not always acquired by his own fault, which something is always and with everything in the Universe an obstacle for the correct flowing of the common cosmic Trogoautoegocratic process; on the other hand, owing to the property in him of Toorinoorino, that is, not being subject to decomposition in any sphere of that solar system in which he is formed, he must inevitably be again coated in a planetary body and in most cases with the exterior form of a being of one- or two-brained system; and in view of the brevity in general of the duration of beings of these planetary forms and also not having time to adapt himself to a single exterior form, he must constantly begin all over again in the form of another being of the planet with the full uncertainty as to the result of this coating. 2382 BTG XXVIII

-"For instance, it often happens there, that, owing to their specifically abnormal existence, the contents of one of the Bobbin-kandelnosts may be used up in one of them, and if it is of the moving-center, or as they themselves call it, the 'spinal-brain', then although such a contemporary three-brained being there continues to 'think' and to 'feel', yet he has already lost the possibility of intentionally directing the parts of his planetary body. 2543 BTG XXIX

"These several learned beings kept themselves apart there, not only in the beginning when all the other learned beings who were then in the city of Babylon first opened a central place for their meetings in the very heart of the city, and when for their better mutual support both materially and morally, they founded there a central club for all the learned beings of the Earth; but also later on, when the whole body of learned beings was divided into three separate 'sections' and each section had its independent club in one or another part of the city of Babylon, they identified themselves with none of the said three sections. 2607 BTG XXX

"Among these productions were also various what are called 'allegorical beings' which were represented with the head of one form of a being there, with the body of another, and with the limbs of a third, and so on. 2716 BTG XXX

"According to this, each large or small part of the whole totality of the planetary body of a being has exactly proportionately increasing or diminishing dimensions in relation to his other parts. 2719 BTG XXX

"The facial dimensions of every three-centered being in general and also the facial dimensions of the three-centered beings of the planet Earth who have taken your fancy, are the result of the dimensions of seven different fundamental parts of the whole of his body, and the dimension of each separate part of the face is the result of seven different dimensions of the whole face. For instance, the dimensions of the nose of any being are derived from the dimensions of the other parts of the face, and on this nose in its turn there are actualized seven definite what are called 'surfaces' and these surfaces also have seven lawful dimensions down to the said atom itself of this face of theirs, which as I have said is one of the seven independent dimensions composing the dimensions of the whole planetary body. 2721 BTG XXX

"For instance, the localization of my consciousness, or as your favorites would say my 'thinking-center', engendered in my common presence, let us suppose, the impulse of joy; the second localization in me, or my 'feeling-center', engendered the impulse called 'sorrow'; and the localization of the body itself, or as once again your favorites would call it, my 'moving-center', engendered the impulse of 'religiousness'. 2778 BTG XXX

"The point is that the tempo of the deterioration of this being-capacity does not proceed in the common presences of beings in the psychic and organic functioning of their planetary bodies in everyone in every generation uniformly, but it alternates, as it were, at different times ,and on different parts of the surface of this planet, affecting at one time more the psychic and at another time the organic part of the functioning of the planetary body. A very good elucidating example of what I have just said is afforded by the sensations of the taste and the capacity to pronounce those two definite consonants or those letters known there at the present time and used among almost all the contemporary beings who breed on all parts of the surface of your planet, and which passed to them through the ancient Greeks from times long past. 2810 BTG XXX

"The second is that from the change of the inner functioning in such a being, the exterior form of his planetary body undergoes the following changes: his nose is held aloft; his arms, as it is said, akimbo; his speech is punctuated by a special cough, and so on. 2834 BTG XXX

"But when this monk Ignatius was about to share what is called this said 'discovery' of his with other beings there like himself, namely, with two of his what are called comrades, monks — together with whom he as a specialist had been sent by his Abbot for the purpose of directing the laying of what are called the 'foundations' of a temple, which later became famous — then, for some trifling reason ensuing from the consequences of one of the properties of the organ Kundabufler crystallized in them called 'envy', he was murdered while asleep and his planetary body was thrown into the water-space surrounding that small island on which it was proposed to erect the said temple. 2925 BTG XXX

"Well, my boy, once while watching as usual this process of theirs from the planet Mars through my big Teskooano I suddenly noticed that which served as the initial cause impelling me to undertake my sixth descent; namely, I saw this time that, without moving from their place, they did with a certain thing something which resulted in a tiny puff of smoke, whereupon a being from the opposite side immediately fell down either totally destroyed or with one or other part of his planetary body mutilated or destroyed forever. 2954 BTG XXXI

"You probably already well know that Zirlikners among us on the planet Karatas, as also in general beings similar to them on other planets of our Great Universe upon which breed already-formed three-brained beings, and from the number of whom are several, who, called differently on different planets, take upon themselves essential obligations in relation to the environment of beings similar to themselves — well, these Zirlikners are those responsible individuals who voluntarily devote the whole of their existence to helping any being of that region to fulfill his being-obligations, if this being for some reason or other, or simply thanks to a temporary irregular functioning of his planetary body, ceases to be able to fulfill his inner or outer being-duty by himself. 3019 BTG XXXI

"And at the present time there, when the functioning of his planetary body in one or other of your contemporary favorites becomes deranged in this or that respect, and when this being ceases to be able to fulfill his being-obligations, these contemporary physicians of theirs are also called in for help; and, no question about it, these physicians do also indeed come; but how they help and how they discharge by their inner essence the obligations taken upon themselves, it is precisely here, as our highly esteemed Mullah Nassr Eddin says, that 'the dead camel of the merchant Vermassan-Zeroonan-Alaram is buried'. 3021 BTG XXXI

"Namely, if the house to which such a contemporary professional is called for help smells of what are called 'English pounds', then in it, thanks to this smell, not only does his inner 'being-wish' to help the suffering being increase to the point of what is called 'ne plus ultra', but even in outer manifestations his planetary body at once assumes the form of a 'Dzedzatzshoon', i.e., a 'beaten dog'. 3028 BTG XXXI

"And later, when they have already become responsible beings having this profession and receive the official title of physician and when they are called upon to help the beings who need it, then their whole help consists in this that they make a being-effort of a certain intensity just to remember the names of several of these medical means and to write them later on a scrap of paper called by them 'prescription', with the intention of prescribing that mixture which should be introduced into the planetary body of, as they say, the 'invalid'. The intensity, however, of their effort depends first of all on the 'social status' of the being needing their help, and secondly on the number of eyes fixed upon them by the beings surrounding the given sick being. 3035 BTG XXXI

"In spite of all that I have said, however, I advise you very strongly to be extremely careful with one kind of their remedies, because it does sometimes happen there that these kind pharmacists put into these mixtures something poisonous for the planetary body — of course, by mistake. 3098 BTG XXXI

"Well, then . . . the mentioned particular property recently newly fixed in the common presences of your favorites is that the functioning of their mentioned Zoostat, or as they themselves would say, of their 'spiritual part', passes into that functioning of their common whole which properly proceeds during their completely passive state, that is, during their 'sleep', and during this sleep of theirs the entire functioning of their planetary body continues to remain such as it became proper to it to be during their waking state. 3188 BTG XXXII

"And the second fact — the fact ensuing from the abnormal conditions of the being-existence of your favorites — is that when, from the very beginning of the arising of their offspring, they intentionally try by every kind of means, for the purpose of making them respond to these abnormal conditions round them, to fix in their 'logicnestarian-localizations' as many impressions as possible obtained exclusively only from such artificial perceptions as are again due to the results of their abnormal existence — which maleficent action of theirs towards their offspring they call 'education' — then the totality of all such artificial perceptions gradually segregates itself in their common presences and acquires its own independent functioning, connected only as much with the functioning of their planetary body as is necessary merely for its automatic manifestation, and the totality of these artificial perceptions is then perceived by them, owing to their naivete, as their real 'consciousness'. But as for the sacred data for genuine being-consciousness put into them by Great Nature — which consciousness ought to be possessed by them from the very beginning of their preparation for responsible existence together with the properties inherent in them which engender in them the genuine sacred being-impulses of 'faith', 'hope', 'love', and 'conscience' — these data, becoming gradually also isolated and being left to themselves, evolve independently of the intentions of the responsible beings, and of course also independently of the bearers of them themselves, and come to be regarded as what is called the 'subconsciousness'. 3194 BTG XXXII

"Although such a 'localization' of accidentally perceived 'impressions' is found in them and although they are aware of its action, yet, in respect of any functioning inherent in their planetary body as well as in respect of the acquisition in their common presence of Objective-Reason, it plays no part. 3196 BTG XXXII

So, my boy, when the hypnotist, by modifying the tempo of their blood circulation, temporarily suspends the action of the localization of their false consciousness — now the ruling master of their common presence — the sacred data of their genuine consciousness can blend freely during their 'waking' state with the entire functioning of their planetary body; and if then he rightly assists the crystallization of data evoking in that localization an idea contrary to what has been fixed there, and directs the action of that idea upon the disharmonized part of the planetary body, an accelerated modification of the circulation of the blood in that part can be produced. 3201 BTG XXXII

"Hanbledzoin is nothing else than the 'blood' of the Kesdjan body of the being; just as the cosmic substances called in totality blood serve for nourishing and renewing the planetary body of the being, so also Hanbledzoin serves in the same way for nourishing and perfecting the body Kesdjan. 3204 BTG XXXII

"The substances of that part of the being-blood which is designed by Nature for serving the planetary body of the being, arise by means of the transformation of substances of that planet on which the given beings are formed and exist. 3207 BTG XXXII

"But the substances which are designed for serving the Kesdjan body of the being, and the totality of which is called Hanbledzoin, are obtained from the transformation of elements of other planets and of the sun itself of that system, where the given three-brained being has the place of his arising and existence. 3208 BTG XXXII

"Substances required for the blood of the planetary body of the being enter into them through their 'firstbeing-food', or, as your favorites say, 'through food'. 3210 BTG XXXII

"As regards the introduction into themselves of the second kind of being-food, which continues among beings even still up to now, then, since they lost the possibility of existing according to the Foolasnitamnian principle, certain of the ingredients of the substances of the second-being-food continue to serve only for assisting the transformation of the first-being-food and for removing from the planetary body certain elements already used by them. 3219 BTG XXXII

"Though this 'hypnotism', or as they prefer to say this branch of their 'science', arose and became official only recently, yet it had already had time to become for them another of the very serious factors which brought about a still greater 'confusion' of their psyche, already muddled enough without this in the majority of them, and which still further deranged the functioning of their planetary body. 3221 BTG XXXII

"From the use of the said vodka, not only does the psyche of the ill-fated three-brained beings there become, just as from 'opium' and 'anasha' also, utterly 'nonsensical' but in addition certain important parts of their planetary body also gradually completely degenerate. 3291 BTG XXXIII

"Well then, while I existed as a physician there among the beings breeding in the towns of Turkestan, I had to work so hard, especially towards the end, that certain functions of my planetary body began to get out of order, and I began to consider therefore how to manage to have the possibility at least for a certain time of doing nothing but only rest. 3293 BTG XXXIII

"But to remain in this Turkestan and to organize my existence there in such a way as to have the full possibility of giving my planetary body the required rest I could not, in any way, because in almost all the beings there on that part of the surface of your planet, breeding in both Chinese and Russian Turkestan, there had already been crystallized, either through personal perceptions or from the descriptions of others, data for recognizing my appearance; at the same time, each of the ordinary beings of this country wished to speak with me concerning either himself personally or his nearest on account of one of the vices in the deliverance from which I had chanced to become there such an unparalleled specialist. 3297 BTG XXXIII

"Having arrived there, I settled down in the city called 'Cairot and very soon organized the external form of my ordinary existence in such a way as to have that rest for my planetary body after the said intense and strenuous labors. "Do you remember, I already told you that I was in this Egypt for the first time during my fourth appearance on the surface of that planet of yours, where I descended for the purpose of collecting with the help of several beings of our tribe existing there, a certain number of the chance-arisen 'freaks' called 'apes'; and I furthermore then told you that I inspected in that country many interesting artificial constructions, among which was also that particular observatory, which had then interested me, for the observation of cosmic concentrations. 3301 BTG XXXIII

"The transformation of the planetary bodies into mummies was effected by the beings of Egypt by a very simple means; namely, they kept the planetary body assigned for this purpose about half a month in what is there called castor oil, and later they introduced into it the sacred 'substance-force' dissolved in a corresponding way. 3320 BTG XXXIII

"Well, my boy, according to the researches and investigations of one of our countrymen who exists there even up till now, about which I was informed by an etherogram after my final departure from the surface of your planet, it turned out that once, when their process of 'reciprocal-destruction' began between the community of beings breeding on this Egypt and the beings of a neighbouring community, and when at the same time, one of their, as they are called 'Pharaohs' came to the end of his existence, the beings whose business it was to preserve the bodies of meritorious beings everlastingly were unable, owing to the approach of beings hostile to them, to keep the planetary body of this Pharaoh in castor oil as long as was necessary, that is to say, half a month; hut nevertheless, they put this body into castor oil, placed it in a hermetically closed room and, having dissolved in a certain way the said sacred substance-force they introduced it into the said room so as to obtain in this way what they wished. 3321 BTG XXXIII

"Perhaps, my dear Hassein, you already know, like all the responsible beings of our Great Universe, and even those still only at the period of the second half of their preparation to become such, even without regard to the degree of their being-rumination, that the common presence of the planetary body of every being and in general of any other 'relatively independent' great or small cosmic unit, must consist of all the three localized sacred substances-of-forces of the holy Triamazikamno, namely, of the substance-forces of the Holy-Affirming, Holy-Denying, and Holy-Reconciling, and that it must be sustained by them all the time in a corresponding and balanced state; and if for some reason or other, there enters into any presence a superfluity of the vibrations of any one of these three sacred forces, then infallibly and unconditionally, the sacred Rascooarno must occur to it, that is the total destruction of its ordinary existence as such. Well, my boy, because there had arisen in the presences of your contemporary favorites, as I have already told you, their further criminal need to despoil the sanctuaries of their ancestors, and certain of them with the purpose of satisfying their criminal needs even forced open in the mentioned way the hermetically closed rooms, then the sacred substance-force of the Holy-Reconciling existing in these rooms localized in a separate state, having had not sufficient time to blend with the space, entered into their presences and actualized its property proper to it according to Law. 3324 BTG XXXIII

"Thanks only to this physical abnormality, there gradually become more deranged in their common presences many functionings, both of their planetary body, already deranged without this, and of their 'body-Kesdjan' — if of course this second being-body is already coated in them and has attained to the required, what is called, 'individuality'. 3559 BTG XXXIV

"If we compare the actions of the former three-brained beings there, who were subject to this 'psychic state', with the actions of these contemporary Bolsheviks, then they, i.e., the contemporary Bolsheviks ought even to be given praise and thanks, that in spite of the fact that the various consequences of the properties of the organ Kundabuffer are infallibly completely crystallized in their common presences — as in general in the presences of contemporary three-brained beings — they, in the very heat of that period when they were entirely 'puppets' under the influence of the inevitable cosmic law Solioonensius, manifested themselves with these consequences in such a way that the dead body of the person shot by them could at least be recognized as whose it was, namely, 'Tom Brown's and nobody else's'". 3581 BTG XXXIV

"The functioning of the planetary body of beings of all forms of external coatings is adapted by Nature in general in such a way that the process of their nourishment with the second being-food, which your favorites call 'breathing of air', proceeds in them, and this nourishment is taken in not only through the organs of breathing, but also through what are called the 'pores' present in their skin. 3608 BTG XXXIV

"Through the 'pores' of the skin of the beings, not only the new second being-food enters, but also through several of these pores, after the transformation of this second being-food, those parts of this food are given off from the skin which are either no longer necessary for the planetary body of the beings or which are already the result of its transmutation. 3609 BTG XXXIV

"Now, when your favorites invented the covering of themselves with what are called 'clothes', then, since these clothes of theirs began to hinder the normal elimination or evaporation of those parts of the second being-food unnecessary for the planetary body, these unnecessary substances having no possibility of evaporating into space and at the same time always continuing to accumulate, they, condensing, begin to form in these various pores of their skin the accumulation of a certain 'oily something'. 3611 BTG XXXIV

"Well, my boy, when still in, as your contemporary favorites say, the 'dim ancient past', a wise and learned being by name 'Amambakhlootr', also from the continent Asia there, once clearly constated during his conscious observations of various facts proceeding around him, that this 'oily-something' which collects in the pores of the skin, has also a maleficent influence on the general functioning of the whole planetary body, he began to elucidate and seek for means for wiping out at least this evil. 3613 BTG XXXIV

"At that time, they during the learned experiments elucidated among other things, that by ordinary washing, even with hot water, it was impossible to obtain the elimination of these deposits from the pores of the skin, as these excretions of the planetary body are found not on the surface of the skin but in the depths of the pores. 3616 BTG XXXIV

"It was thanks particularly to the second almost criminal 'unforeseeingness' that this situation, terrifying for the three-brained beings, obtains there, namely, that on the one hand there are in their common presences as in the presences of all the three-brained beings of our Great Universe, all the possibilities for coating the 'higher-being-bodies', and at the same time, thanks to the crystallization which has become inherent in them of the various consequences of the organ Kundabuffer, it is almost impossible for them to carry the higher sacred parts coated in them up to the required degree of perfecting. And since, according to the fundamental common cosmic laws, such a formation as their 'higher-being-part', coated in the common presences of three-brained beings, is not subject to decomposition on planets, and since the planetary body of the beings cannot endlessly exist on planets and the process of the sacred Rascooarno must inevitably proceed with them at the proper time, therefore, their unfortunate higher bodies arising in the terrestrial three-brained beings must inevitably languish also forever in all kinds of exterior planetary forms. 3743 BTG XXXVII

"The actualization of this Sacred Individual proceeded there in the planetary body of a boy, who arose in the country now called Egypt, a little after my fourth personal sojourn on the surface of this planet of yours. 3889 BTG XXXVIII

"This Sacred Individual, called by your favorites 'Jesus Christ', was actualized in the planetary body of a boy of that race of terrestrial three-brained beings whom Saint Moses, on the command from Above, chose from among the beings of the country Egypt and led to what is called the 'Land of Canaan'. 3894 BTG XXXVIII

"I already see in my mind's eye that before many of their years have passed, there will be on the spot where the planetary body of the Divine Jesus was buried, a place for parking contemporary cars, that is, a parking place for those machines which for contemporary beings were just the marvel needed to drive them crazy. 3941 BTG XXXVIII

"In this way ended the existence of the chief of the small group of nearly perfected brothers, and overcome by the terror of such an event, nothing more remained for them but only to take all the necessary steps to bring home the planetary body of their former chief. 4034 BTG XXXVIII

"That process is called the sacred Almznoshinoo by means of which three-centered beings who have themselves already had time to coat and to bring their own body Kesdjan up to completed functioning and to a definite degree of Reason, intentionally produce the coating or, as it is otherwise said, the 'materialization' of the body Kesdjan of any being already entirely destroyed, to such a density that this body acquires again for a certain time the possibility of manifesting in certain of its functions proper to its former planetary body. 4044 BTG XXXVIII

"This sacred process can be produced upon the body Kesdjan of that being who also during his existence had brought his higher being-body up to the completed functioning, and in whom, in addition, the Reason of this body had been brought up to the degree called the sacred 'being-Mirozinoo'. 4045 BTG XXXVIII

"And in addition, these formations evoked intentionally and consciously by definite beings can exist and maintain connection and communication with them only as long as the beings who produce these formations, consciously feed the body Kesdjan with their own sacred 'Aisakhladon'. 4049 BTG XXXVIII

"And so, in consequence of the fact that the body Kesdjan of the being is coated with those substances which in their totality make this cosmic formation much lighter than that mass of cosmic substances which surrounds the planets and is called the planetary atmosphere, then as soon as the body Kesdjan of the being is separated from the planetary body of the being, it at once rises according to the cosmic law called 'Tenikdoa', or as it is sometimes called the 'law of gravity', to that sphere in which it finds the weight proper to it equally balanced and which is therefore the corresponding place of such cosmic arisings; then, in consequence of all this, the preliminary preparation consists in this, that beforehand, still during the planetary existence of that being, on the body Kesdjan of whom it is intended after his decease to produce the sacrament of the sacred Almznoshinoo, a particle of his Hanbledzoin must be taken and this particle must be either kept in some corresponding surplanetary formation, or be introduced into those beings themselves who produce this 'ritual', and intentionally blend with the Hanbledzoin of their own body Kesdjan. 4054 BTG XXXVIII

"In this way, when the three-brained perfected being foredesigned for this sacrament Almznoshinoo ceases his planetary existence, and his body Kesdjan is separated from his planetary body, then thanks to the first particular property of this being-Hanbledzoin that connection begins to be established about which I have just told you, between the given body Kesdjan and that place where the particle of his Hanbledzoin was preserved beforehand or those beings who intentionally coated this particle in their own bodies Kesdjan. 4055 BTG XXXVIII

"In order to be clear in our subsequent talks upon this question, you must now be told just here that the said connection — one end of which is kept in the body Kesdjan which has risen to its corresponding sphere and the other end of which stays either within those surplanetary formations in which the particle from the general mass of the Hanbledzoin of the given body Kesdjan was fixed, or in those beings who intentionally blended the Hanbledzoin of the given body Kesdjan with the Hanbledzoin of their own body Kesdjan — can exist in space only for a limited period, namely, only until the completion of the appointed movement of that planet, on which the given being had arisen, around its sun. 4056 BTG XXXVIII

"So, my boy! Until these completed movements have come to an end, those beings existing on planets who either have in themselves a particle of the Hanbledzoin of any body Kesdjan or have at their disposal the surplanetary formation in which that part of the Hanbledzoin was fixed, can — assuming, of course, that they have all the corresponding data for carrying it out — at any time attract such a body back to the sphere of the solid part of the planet, and saturating it to the condensation corresponding to their own Hanbledzoin, in this way establish relations with the Reason of that already completely formed independent cosmic unit. 4059 BTG XXXVIII

"But having now no other possibility of learning all the secret sacraments, except only by attempting to enter into relations with the Reason of their deceased chief, they decided to try to carry out this sacred sacrament upon the body Kesdjan of their former chief, even without the said preliminary preparation. 4063 BTG XXXVIII

"As my further investigations showed me, this great misfortune occurred in the following way: "When these six 'great initiates' still existing with their planetary existence began by twos in turns uninterruptedly for three days and three nights to produce upon the planetary body of their former chief the process Vallikrin, that is, the inpouring of their own Hanbledzoin into this body, then, because of the absence of the said preliminary preparation of the connection with his body Kesdjan, their Hanbledzoin did not go to the actualization where it should have gone, but only accumulated chaotically over this planetary body of their former chief; and since, unfortunately for them, during these same days, a reinforced blending of the sacred active element Okidanokh was proceeding in the atmosphere above that locality, or as the beings say there, there were 'great thunderstorms', then, between these two cosmic 'results', still only in the process of transition from one definite cosmic phenomenon to another, a what is called 'Sobrionolian contact' resulted. 4065 BTG XXXVIII

"This Sobrionolian contact, or as it would be said on your planet Earth this 'explosion', was so powerful that during this Noughtounichtono there, everything without any exception was transformed into Etherokrilno, both the planetary body of the chief of this small group of beings as well as all the six other brethren there who had completed this sacred sacrament, and likewise in general all the spiritualized or only concentrated surplanetary formations which were in the given region within an area of one 'Shmana', or as your favorites would say 'one square kilometer'. 4067 BTG XXXVIII

"The point is, that when this Sacred Individual Jesus Christ was actualized in the planetary body of a terrestrial three-brained being, and when afterwards he had to be separated from his exterior planetary coating, then just this same sacred process 'Almznoshinoo' was also produced on his body Kesdjan by certain terrestrial three-brained beings in order to have the possibility — in view of the violent interruption of his planetary existence — of continuing to communicate with his Divine Reason and of obtaining in this way the information about certain cosmic Truths and certain instructions for the future which he did not finish giving them. 4081 BTG XXXVIII

"And so, my boy, in consequence of the fact that that period of time coincided with that 'particularly sharp functioning' which I already once mentioned, of the strange reason of these three-brained beings pleasing to you — in the sense of the periodic 'Ekbarzerbazia' which had long been an inherent need for them 'to-lead-into-error-beings-around-them-similar-to-themselves' — at which period, many of them strove to be called 'learned', of course, of 'new format', and also on account of the fact that at that time there were many such beings among the mentioned ordinary beings around them, then they 'inserted' for transmission to subsequent generations, in most of the notes and expressions of those stories of the witnesses about this sacred process, such 'absurdities' that in addition to this indubitable information, that Jesus Christ was crucified on a cross, and that after the crucifixion he was buried, they also proved just as convincingly that after His crucifixion and burial, Jesus Christ was resurrected and continued to exist among them and to teach this and that, and only afterwards did He raise Himself with His planetary body to Heaven. 4083 BTG XXXVIII

"The information about what is called 'the Lord's Supper' given in the 'noted totality', still existing today among your contemporary favorites, representing as it were the real accurate history of this Sacred Individual' and which is called by them the 'Holy Writ', was nothing else but a preparation for the great sacrament Almznoshinoo on the body Kesdjan of Saint Jesus Christ. 4089 BTG XXXVIII

"In order that you may better represent and make clear to yourself the genuine individuality of this Judas, and the significance of his manifestation for the future, I must first still inform you that when this Sacred Individual Jesus Christ, intentionally actualized from Above in a planetary body of a terrestrial being, completely formed Himself for a corresponding existence, He decided to actualize the mission imposed on Him from Above, through the way of enlightening the reason of these three-brained terrestrial beings, by means of twelve different types of beings, chosen from among them and who were specially enlightened and prepared by him personally. 4104 BTG XXXVIII

"All the history of the actualization of this Sacred Individual in a planetary body among your favorites, both concerning His existence among the beings of various groupings of this planet of yours, and also concerning His violent end, is very, very interesting just for you who wish to explain to your reason all the details of the strange psyche of these peculiar three-brained beings — and it will be very instructive and interesting to know that part of the history of this Saint Jesus Christ, which relates to the period of His existence there from the ages of twelve to twenty-eight, according to their time-calculation". 4118 BTG XXXVIII

"At first on the planet itself the 'second-being-body', i.e., the body-Kesdjan, together with the 'third-being-body' separate themselves from the 'fundamental-planetary-body' and, leaving this planetary body on the planet, rise both together to that sphere where those cosmic substances — from the localizations of which the body-Kesdjan of a being arises — have their place of concentration. 4335 BTG XXXIX

"The point is, that according to various second-grade cosmic laws, the 'being-body-Kesdjan' cannot exist long in this sphere, and at the end of a certain time this second being-part must decompose, irrespective of whether the higher being-part existing within it had by that time attained the requisite degree of Reason; and in view of the fact that as long as this higher being-part does not perfect its Reason to the requisite degree, it must always be dependent upon some Kesdjanian arising or other, therefore immediately after the second sacred Rascooarno every such still unperfected higher being-body gets into a state called 'Techgekdnel' or 'searching-for-some-other-similar-two-natured-arising-corresponding-to-itself' so that when the higher part of this other two-natured arising perfects itself to the required degree of Reason and the final process of the sacred Rascooarno occurs to it, and the speedy disintegration of its Kesdjan body is not yet clearly sensed, this higher being-body might instantly enter this other body Kesdjan and continue to exist in it for its further perfection, which perfection must sooner or later be inevitably accomplished by every arisen higher being-body. 4343 BTG XXXIX

"Now as regards the first two lower being-bodies, namely, the planetary-body and the body-Kesdjan, then, after the first sacred Rascooarno of a being, his planetary body, being formed of Microcosmoses or of crystallizations transformed on that planet itself, gradually decomposes and disintegrates there on that same planet, according to a certain second-grade cosmic law called 'Again-Tarnotoltoor', into its own primordial substances from which it obtained its arising. 4353 BTG XXXIX

"As regards the second-being-body, namely, the body-Kesdjan, this body, being formed of radiations of other concentrations of Tritocosmoses and of the Sun itself of the given solar system, and having entered after the second process of the sacred Rascooarno into the sphere just mentioned, also begins gradually to decompose, and the crystallizations of which it is composed go in various ways into the sphere of its own primordial arisings. 4355 BTG XXXIX

"And in those nervous nodes scattered over the whole of the planetary body, there are accumulated at the present time all the results obtained from the affirming and denying manifestations of their head-brain and spinal marrow, and these results, having become fixed in these 'nervous nodes' scattered over the whole of their common presence, are later also such a neutralizing principle, in the further process of 'affirmation and denial' between the head-brain and spinal marrow, just as the totality of everything arising in the Megalocosmos is the neutralizing force in the process of the affirmation of the Protocosmos and the various shades of denials of all the newly arisen Suns. 4451 BTG XXXIX

"Up to this time not one of them has yet even become aware that in this first being-food there are substances necessary almost exclusively only for the maintenance of the existence of their coarse planetary body alone — which is a denying-source — and that this first being-food can give almost nothing for the other higher parts of their presence. 4471 BTG XXXIX

"Further, a part of these definite substances of 'being-Defteroëhary' go to serve the planetary body itself and also the local Harnelmiatznel in respect of the newly entering food, but the other part, also by means of a process of Harnelmiatznel of local character, continues its independent evolution and is ultimately transmuted in beings into the still higher definite substances which are called, this time, 'being-Tritoëhary'. 4507 BTG XXXIX

"Further, a part of this being-Tetartoëhary from both hemispheres of their head-brain goes unchanged to serve the planetary body of the given being, but the other part having in itself all the possibilities for independent evolution, continues to evolve without any help coming from outside; and mixing again by means of the process Harnelmiatznel with previously formed higher substances already present in the beings, it is gradually transmuted into still higher definite being-active-elements called 'Piandjoehary'. 4535 BTG XXXIX

"And these substances have as the central place of their concentration in beings the, what is called, 'Sianoorinam' or, as your favorites call this part of their planetary body, the 'cerebellum', which in beings is also located in the head. 4537 BTG XXXIX

"From the cerebellum of beings a part of these definite substances also goes to serve the planetary body itself, but the other part, passing in a particular way through the 'nerve nodes' of the spine and the breast, is concentrated in the beings of the male sex, in what are called 'testicles' and in the beings of the female sex in what most of your favorites call 'ovaries', which are the place of concentration in the common presences of beings of the 'being-Exioëhary', which is for the beings themselves their most sacred possession. You should know that this particular way mentioned is called 'Trnlva'. 4543 BTG XXXIX

"As soon as all three-brained beings of our Megalocosmos without distinction of exterior coating acquire any degree of self-awareness, they already begin consciously or instinctively to dream of going on to that holy planet, in order later to have the happiness to become a particle of that Greatness, the blending with which must sooner or later be the lot of every alreacly arisen essence; and three-brained beings who have attained to an already greater self-awareness always eagerly and even joyfully permit during their ordinary-being-existence, for the realization of these dreams of theirs, those unpleasantnesses to their presences which proceed from the accepted privations to their planetary body, because such beings already well understand and instinctively feel that this lower being-body of theirs is, in their own sacred cosmic law of Triamazikamno, the indispensable source for a certain kind of denying manifestation, and as such, of course, always must and will manifest only as denying for their affirming part, that is, that the manifestation of this lower part of theirs must obligatorily be always opposite to what is required for them by their higher being-part. 4625 BTG XXXIX

'In other words, every wish of the planetary body is taken as undesirable for the higher divine part which has to be coated and perfected, and therefore all three-centered beings of our Great Megalocosmos constantly carry on a relentless struggle against the wishes of their planetary bodies so that there should be formed in them, in this struggle from the what is called 'Disputekrialnianfriction', those sacred crystallizations from which their higher Divine being-part arises and is perfected in them. 4627 BTG XXXIX

"And so, my boy, in consequence of the fact that these terrestrial monks', particularly the contemporary, do not intentionally aid the further evolution of these substances inevitably formed in them from the constant use of the first being-food, that is, do not actualize any 'being-Partkdolg-duty' at all in their common presences, either intentionally or even automatically, and at the same time they do not remove these substances from themselves in the normal way foredesigned by Nature, then these substances begin to involve in them themselves, and during this involution of being-Exioëhary or sperm there is worked out, among the many transient definite substances which are in general formed in their common presences by such an involutionary process, a definite transient substance which has the property of having two kinds of action on the general functioning of the planetary body of a being. 4681 BTG XXXIX

"The first kind of action of this definite substance consists in this, that it promotes the depositing of superfluous what is called 'Karatsiag', or, as they call it there, 'fat'. And its second kind of action promotes the arising and the dispersing over the whole planetary body of what are called 'Poisonioonoskirian-vibrations'. 4683 BTG XXXIX

"And in consequence, in this way all possibilities for the free formation of all that which is required for the engendering of objective being-Reason is gradually atrophied and finally disappears in these unfortunate, so to say, 'still-innocent-in-everything' newly arising beings during the period of their what is called 'preparatory age', and as a result, when these newly arising beings later became responsible beings, they, in their, so to say, 'essence-center-of-gravity', become the possessors, not of that objective-Reason which they ought to have, but of that strange totality of automatically perceived artificial even deceptive impressions which, having nothing in common with the localization of their spiritualized being-parts, nevertheless acquires a connection with the separate functionings of their common presence. In consequence of this, not only the whole process of their existence flows automatically, but also almost the whole process of the functioning of their planetary body becomes dependent only on chance, automatically perceived, external impressions. 4720 BTG XL

"'My chief terror is that today I was more than ever careful in the calculations of the vibrations required for the given case, that is to say, I accurately calculated that the proposed boil should be formed on your body in just that place and in no other. 5426 BTG XLI

"'And here the unprecedented has happened. Not only is it not in the designated place, but it has not even been formed on any part of your body at all. 5427 BTG XLI

"'During the process of that treatment he noticed that although the principal "concentration" or "gravitahonai center" of the disease in the body of his wife became, as it were, "atrophied", yet at the same time a similar "concentration" was beginning, this time in an entirely different part of her body. 5533 BTG XLI

"'Having constated this horror, my young friend decided to throw aside all the wiseacring of contemporary European medicine and without consideration for his own state, he began to elaborate in himself the necessary vibrations and to saturate the body of the invalid with them. 5536 BTG XLI

"'It must be noticed further that during the last period of the illness, when he had already ceased to employ the wiseacring of European medicine, two further similar independent concentrations were noticed in the body of his wife. 5538 BTG XLI

"'When my young friend had more or less calmed down after that terrible issue, and again devoted part of his time to his beloved studies and researches of the great World-laws, then, among other things, he became much interested to know why, during the treatment of the cancer by X rays there had arisen in the body of his wife those independent concentrations he had constated which usually do not develop in this disease and which during his long years of previous observations he had never noticed. 5539 BTG XLI

Although by the employment of this contemporary device for the treatment of the said terrible disease in the whole body of man the place of the gravitational center becomes atrophied, yet it greatly facilitates the so to say "Metastases" in other glands and helps the sowing and successful flourishing of it in these new places. 5556 BTG XLI

"The main harm in the significance of the resulting disharmony in the digestive functioning of all the contemporary three-brained beings of your planet from this American invention is due to the following causes: "In former times, when more or less normal data for the engendering of objective Reason were still crystallized in the common presences of your favorites, and they themselves could reflect and understand when other similar and already enlightened beings explained the subject to them, they made the said posture as was required; but subsequently, when the said being data had definitely ceased to crystallize in them, and they also began discharging this function of theirs only automatically, then, thanks to the system prevalent before this American invention, the planetary body could of itself, automatically, by virtue only of what is called 'animal instinct', adopt the required definite posture. But now that American beings have invented these 'comfortable seats', and they have all begun using them for this inevitable function of theirs, their planetary body can no longer possibly adapt itself even instinctively to the required posture, with the consequence that not only have certain what are called 'muscles' which actualize this inevitable being-function become gradually atrophied in those of your favorites who use these American comfortable seats, owing to which what are called obstructions are formed in them, but in addition the causes are engendered of several specifically new diseases which, in the whole of our Great Universe, arise exclusively only in the presences of these strange three-brained beings. 5802 BTG XLII

"The moment he saw what they call there the 'pretty face' of a being of the female sex, his whole body and even his breathing suddenly changed. 5924 BTG XLII

"'Provision was made in it as is said both for the soul and for the body; and it even provided all the necessary regulations for a peaceful and happy existence. And this was all surpassingly wisely provided for in such a way that this religion might be suitable also for people of much later epochs. 6064 BTG XLII

"In order that you may clearly picture to yourself the significance of all the harm from just this invention of theirs, I must first of all explain to you the following: "Do you remember, when I spoke to you about that 'maleficent means' existing there at the present time called 'sport', I said that the duration of the existence of these favorites of yours was in the beginning also Fulasnitamnian, that is to say, they had to exist until their body Kesdjan was completely coated in them and perfected up to the required gradation of Reason, and that afterwards, when very abnormal conditions of ordinary being-existence began to be established there, Great Nature was constrained to actualize their presences and also the subsequent process of their existence on the principle of Itoklanoz, that is, according to the results of certain surrounding causes. 6342 BTG XLII

"I did not lightly say that if by that time their descendants still continue to arise, because among other things I then noticed that same extraordinary particularity in respect of the consequences of the new formation of the planetary body of beings of the female sex which I had already once noticed long before in the process of the ordinary existence of these strange three-brained beings, and parallel with this, I minutely constated among other special observations, the consequences ensuing from this particularity. 6359 BTG XLII

"The continuation of the race of this small group ceased owing to this same strange particularity of the formation of the planetary body of the beings of the female sex, and this form of cessation of the race was then called by the learned members of the society Akhaldan, 'Dezsoopsentoziroso'. 6361 BTG XLII

"Or, further, one of them who has a score of various as it is said there 'chronic diseases', thanks to which for whole weeks at a time his stomach does not work and his whole body is covered with all kinds of malignant pimples, from which diseases he of course suffers day and night — in short, such a being there who for many years has been a genuine 'walking anatomical museum' of all the diseases existing on that planet — is always more indignant than anyone else when someone has carelessly caught, let us say, a cold. 6490 BTG XLIII

"During their responsible existence these intelligentsia beings there always act or manifest only when they receive corresponding shocks from outside, and it is these same shocks proceeding from outside which give them the possibility of becoming correspondingly animated and of experiencing, only through the unrolling of the series of former corresponding automatic perceptions already present in them and not depending at all on their own wish or will; and these external shocks of theirs for the said kind of experiencing are usually in the first place animate or inanimate things accidentally coming within the sphere of their organs of perception of visibility; secondly, the various beings they meet; thirdly, the sounds or words reverberating where they happen to be; fourthly, scents accidentally perceived by their sense of smell; and finally, unaccustomed sensations that proceed from time to time during the functioning of their planetary body, or as they say, their 'organism' and so on. 6506 BTG XLIII

"To tell the truth, my boy, I did not at once clearly understand all that he then said, and it was only later that I came to understand it all clearly, when, during my studies of the fundamental cosmic laws, I learned that these sacred substances Abrustdonis and Helkdonis are just those substances by which the higher being-bodies of three-brained beings, namely, the body Kesdjan and the body of the Soul, are in general formed and perfected; and when I learned that the separation of the sacred Askokin from the said sacred substances proceeds in general when the beings on whatever planet it might be transubstantiate the sacred substances Abrustdonis and Helkdonis in themselves for the forming and perfecting of their higher bodies, by means of conscious labors and intentional sufferings. 6663 BTG XLIII

"Into Pythias or mediums those three-brained beings are converted there in whom, either spontaneously only owing to accidentally arranged surrounding conditions, or intentionally on the part of another consciousness, the inner functioning of the planetary body gets well accustomed to every change of the inner general psyche during sudden changes of their blood circulation, in consequence of which in such subjects there is not hindered the free functioning of various peculiarities of their general psyche which are consciously or unconsciously directed from outside and of the chief automatic data still present in them for genuine being-consciousness, which totality of functioning proceeding in them they call 'subconsciousness'. 6840 BTG XLIV

"'I personally would present myself at your house, but as you know, the size of my planetary body does not permit me in any way to do so, and hence I am compelled to beg you not to refuse to come to my "Fal-Fe-Foof".' [Fal-Fe-Foof in Martian speech signifies a dwelling.] 6921 BTG XLV

"The point is that the three-brained beings of this planet according to their outer coating gradually acquire the habit of resting only in that posture, when after having stooped in a special way they let the whole weight of their planetary body rest on their lower extremities, and for these means of resting it gradually became necessary for them to be at a certain height; hence it is that the three-brained beings there have established the practice of fixing at a certain height, in the rooms where then, exist, special sticks for resting, which they call perches. 6955 BTG XLV

Hassein wished to answer, but it could be seen that the sobbing of his planetary body prevented him from speaking. 6992 BTG XLVI

Only after a rather long time, when the planetary body of Hassein was a little calmed did he, gazing at his grandfather with very sad eyes, but yet with a smile of affection, say: 6993 BTG XLVI

"For instance, all the functionings of the 'planetary body' and the body itself are the chief parts of a being, but the separate functionings as well as the whole of this body itself without other of the spiritualized parts of the being are only a dependent cosmic formation, conscious of nothing, and therefore, on the basis of what you once called the 'common universal pillar of Justice', each spiritualized part of a being must always be just towards this dependent and unconscious part and not require of it more than it is able to give. 7036 BTG XLVI

"Just as everything else in the Megalocosmos, in order that the 'planetary body of a being' may correctly serve its chief part, that is to say, in order that this auxiliary part of the whole being should properly serve his essence itself, this essence must always be just and make demands on it only according to its inherent possibilities. 7037 BTG XLVI

"And so, if you wish that your 'active mentation' during your future responsible existence should proceed correctly and productively, you must now, if such a mentation has already begun in you and if such an inner process has undesirable consequences for your planetary body, not occupy yourself at all for a while with such mentation, however much you may like it and however greatly it may interest you, otherwise 'Dezonakooasanz' will result in you, that is to say, only one part of your whole presence will acquire another tempo, and in consequence you will become again, as your favorites would say, 'lopsided'. 7040 BTG XLVI

Recalling my state during the period of the writing of that first chapter I cannot help adding here — owing to still another certain small weakness in me which consists of my always experiencing an inner satisfaction whenever I see appear on the faces of our estimable contemporary as they are called "representatives of exact science", that very specific smile peculiar to them alone — that although my body after this accident was, as is said, "so battered and everything in it so mixed up" that for months it looked like a fragment of a general picture which might be described as "a bit of live meat in a clean bed", nevertheless, and for all that, my correctly disciplined what is usually called "spirit", even in that physical state of my body, was not in the least depressed, as it should have been according to their notions, but, on the contrary, its power was even intensified by the heightened excitation which had arisen in it just before the accident owing to my repeated disappointment in people, particularly in such people as are devoted, as they say to "science", and also to my disappointment in those ideals which until then had been in me, and which had gradually been formed in my common presence, thanks chiefly to the commandment inculcated in me in my childhood, enjoining that "the highest aim and sense of human life is the striving to attain the welfare of one's neighbor", and that this is possible exclusively only by the conscious renunciation of one's own. 7132 BTG XLVIII

I was constrained with an inexpressible impulse of grief and despondency to make this decision to liquidate this institution and everything organized and carefully prepared for the opening the following year of eighteen sections in different countries, in short, of everything I had previously created with almost superhuman labor, chiefly because, soon after the said accident occurred, that is, three months afterwards, when the former usual functioning of my mentation had been more or less reestablished in me — I being still utterly powerless in body — I then reflected that the attempt to preserve the existence of this institution, would, in the absence of real people around me and owing to the impossibility of procuring without me the great material means required for it, inevitably lead to a catastrophe the result of which, among other things for me in my old age as well as for numerous others wholly dependent on me, would be, so to say, a "vegetation". 7135 BTG XLVIII

The body of a man with all its motor reflex manifestations corresponds simply to the carriage itself; all the functionings and manifestations of feeling of a man correspond to the horse harnessed to the carriage and drawing it; the coachman sitting on the box and directing the horse corresponds to that in a man which people call consciousness or mentation; and finally, the passenger seated in the carriage and commanding the coachman is that which is called "I". 7150 BTG XLVIII

Continuing this analogy between a typical contemporary man, with his thoughts, feelings, and body, and a hackney carriage, horse, and coachman, we can clearly see that in each of the parts composing both organizations there must have been formed and there must exist its own separate needs, habits, tastes, and so on, proper to it alone. From the varied nature of their arising, and the diverse conditions of their formation, and according to their varying possibilities in each of them there must inevitably have been formed, for instance, its own psyche, its own notions, its own subjective supports, its own viewpoints, and so on. 7152 BTG XLVIII

As far as the carriage or cart is concerned, which stands in our analogy for the body without any of the other independently formed parts of the common presence of a man, the situation is even worse. 7172 BTG XLVIII

The point is, that just as the separate independent parts of a "hackney" are connected — namely, the carriage to the horse by the shafts and the horse to the coachman by reins — so also are the separate parts of the general organization of man connected with each other, namely the body is connected to the feeling-organization by the blood, and the feeling-organization is connected to the organization actualizing the functioning of mentation or consciousness by what is called Hanbledzoin, that is, by that substance which arises in the common presence of a man from all intentionally made being-efforts. 7193 BTG XLVIII

Today, after the lecture, you return home, undress, and get into bed, but just as you are covering yourself with your blanket a mouse jumps out from under the pillow and scuttling across your body ducks into the folds of the blankets. 7345 BTG XLVIII

Admit candidly, does not a shiver actually already run through the whole of your body merely at the bare thought of such a possibility? 7346 BTG XLVIII

The death referred to is not the death of the body since for such a death there is no need of resurrection. 7401 BTG XLVIII

For if there is a soul, and moreover, an immortal soul, it can dispense with a resurrection of the body. 7402 BTG XLVIII
