About this book
Four forms of matter provide the starting point for Thomas Edgar Willson's account of life and mind. Drawing on Hindu teaching and Theosophical thought, these essays describe prakriti, ether, prana and manasa as planes distinguished by vibration. Willson compares this proposed structure with theories of atoms and ether, using globes within globes to explain how the material universe fits together. The opening sets physical ideas alongside questions about the relationship between matter and spirit.
Later passages present a teacher explaining how combinations of vibration produce force, life and mind. The chapters also address perception, the earth's place in the larger system and what a teacher should impart to pupils. A prefatory remembrance describes Willson's contributions to the Theosophical Forum and his enthusiasm for discussing these subjects.
