“The Word of God is Love. The enactment of the Word of God
is service to your brothers and sisters. Truly, if the Word of God is actively
resident within your life, the Fruits of Spirit are being produced in your life through the Service of
Love.” Solonia,

*** SOLAR
MULTI-DIMENSIONALITIES ( XI ) Cont. 2. “You” as
LOWER-SELF “PUMA” (Physical UltiMate Aton/Atom) LIFE is a process which takes place
between the cellular organism (organization, organ realization) of the
individualizing cellular-self and the environment. The solar personality (persona reality)
imparts value of IDentity and meanings of continuity to this organism-environmental
association known as the phenomenon of STIMULUS and RESPONSE. This is not a mere mechanical process
since personality functions as a factor in the total situation, and it is ever true that
non-living energy-matter mechanisms are innately responsive/ reactive/passive while living
energy-matter organisms are inherently stimulative-creative-active.
THE EVOLUTION OF SOLAR SELFHOOD –
Theosophy C.W.Leadbeater has stated in his
book(1,edit.): “(The spirit-energy)… is called monadic essence…only when clothed in the
ultimate matter of the various planes…When it is immersed in a physical matter…energizing
or en(in)souling the mineral kingdom… it is called “the mineral monad”, (the
plants)…”the vegetable monad”, (the animals)… ”the animal monad”. (The physical) monadic essence …is not
one monad, but many…of many parallel life-streams, each possessing
characteristics of its own. The whole scheme tends increasingly toward (self) differentiation,…to divide
and subdivide (cellular organization of self). (So) In the VEGETABLE kingdom, for example,
we do not have a soul for one plant, but one GROUP-SOUL for an enormous number of
plants,…in the ANIMAL kingdom…we have comparatively smaller number of physical forms (as) expression of
one GROUP-SOUL,… and finally (we have monadic essence)
divided into (differentiated self organized) individualities, (from group soul now) each MAN being now
(monadic essence MANifestation) of differentiated, and organized singular selfhood, a
separate (yet undeveloped primitive) INDIVIDUAL SOUL. THE EVOLUTION OF SOLAR SELFHOOD- The
Urantia Book (2) First primordial cells were simple and
undifferentiated electrochemical circuits, established only from the reactive inorganic
atomic-molecular components into which the stimulated life plasma was introduced. The first organic unit of material life
created was the protoplasmic cell which communally associated various chemical, electrical
and other basic energies. In the development of any planetary life
the vegetable always precedes animal and develops fully before animal patterns appear and
begin to differentiate. All animal types always develop from the basic patterns of the preceding
vegetable kingdom; they are not separately organized as we could see from the narrative of
this paper. Previously has been stated that each
cell has also its own evolving living elemental soul and mind animated though its vital (life)
stimulating principles. SOUL as such is the animating, vital
principle of the unit form of life, and is the carrier of its evolutionary mind, which results from
its choosing between inner and outer stimuli. The name SOUL is the derivation of root
SOL (SUN, SON) hence its SOLAR name. The soul represents the conscious
learning aspect of the living form of life. This separates the consciousness of the living soul
from the non-living reactive consciousness of the evolutionary energy-matter, which some
also call consciously reactive elemental soul. Living soul has the spark of life and
life plasma, necessary for the evolution of its teachable mind, able to learn under the influence
of the seven adjutant mind spirits assisted by the Life Carriers and the seraphic host,
while the mechanical matter-nature has only reactive vibratory sympathetic non-teachable
consciousness which is influenced, manipulated and controlled by the physical controllers
of the planetary realms. THE PERSONALITY AND INDIVIDUALITY OF
SELFHOOD PERSONALITY is the spiritual quality of
actualizing blueprint of Selfhood bestowed upon the life form by the Universal Father’s
Spirit, and ministered to it by the Spirit of the Conjoint Actor of the Third Source and Center,
acting for the Father upon any living energy system which evolves its mind under the spirit
influence. When bestowed upon evolutionary material
creatures, it causes the spirit to strive for the mastery of such energy-matter life form
through the mediation of its evolutionary mind. The actualized spirit of the
individualized personality is always unique, changeless, moral and dedicated to the will of God, the
creator of its bestowed and actualized personality. Personality, while devoid of identity,
can unify the identity of any living energy system. Personality responds directly to other
personality presence and it can not perform very well in isolation because the man is
innately a social creature craving for belong-ness. It is literally true “No soul-man lives
unto itself”. The concept of the personality as the
meaning of the whole, living, and functioning creature means much more than the
integration of relationships within form; it signifies the unification of all form factors of
one’s reality as well as the co-ordination of relationships. Relationships exist between two cell
objects, but three or more cellular objects eventuate a cellular SYSTEM where individual
members are related through such system to the whole. In the organism (organ realism) the
summation of its parts constitutes SELFHOOD, the living form INDIVIDUALIZATION (In-divide
Dual realization of spirit and energy-matter). In a human individual the personality is
the unifier of all of its spiritual qualities, as related to cosmic actual absolute realities, and
realized in the potentials of the energy-matter form acted upon, developing solar form IDENTITY
(In-divide Dual /spirit-matter/ ENTITY). In a CELL AGGREGATION the various parts
are added in the AGGREGate realizATION, and in the SYSTEM ORGANIZATION,
synonymous with the body ORGAN real-IZATION, they become arranged as organs in a body
of the life form system. In a system organization of body organs
aggregate-realization, there is the aggregation of all body parts (organs) according to their
organizational positional values and meanings. In a good functioning system of
well organized materialized energies, all organ-factors are arranged according to a meaningful
system of solar-SELF response to the inner spiritual stimuli. In a poorly functioning energy-matter
system adequate solar-SELF responses to the spiritual stimuli are either displaced, deranged
or missing in such DIS(functionally)-ORGANIZED materialized body, resulting in a
DIS(functional)-EASE of such solar energy system. In spirit-mind-energy systems it is the
spiritual personality that unifies all of its evolutionary activities and imparts all spiritual
qualities to such personal form, i.e. well organized and well- harmonized energy-body organization of
such solar form-identity and spirit-creativity. The possibility of the unification of
the evolving self-Self is inherent in the qualities of its constitutive factors: the basic
energies, the master tissues, the fundamental chemical over-control, the one’s ideas, goals and
the spiritual bestowal, i.e. the secret of self- Self conscious spiritual nature of the
body-form individualization (spirit realization in matter). The evolutionary lower solar material
self, the PUMA ego-centric self, is dependent during its physical life upon the continuing
harmonized function of its material vehicle potential in maintaining the balanced equilibrium
between its physical energies and its intellect, i.e. its physical “NATURE”elements and its solar
PUMA-self mind. (as compared to the acting upon actualizing “SPIRITUAL” LIFE blueprint
or personality). As the creature ascends and finally
individualizes, it seeks the selfhood of survival value that can transcend the experience of death.
This can be achieved, however, only through unification of PUMA-self mind with its spirit-Self
personality through the increased spirit influence, and the dominance of spirit(ual) teaching upon
evolutionary mind of self. This process culminates in the solar leading of PUMA self-Self by the
personalizing “I AM” Fathers spirit Divine Thought Adjuster, resulting in mortal solar
qualification for the eternal life into its immortal morontial Solar I AM- Selfhood . Only through the total spirit
over-control of solar self, the spirit flame of “I AM God” actualizing personality blueprint can
totally dominate the solar lower-self body system and its form identity (its lower “I am
self-hood”), to change it into the ascended I AM God-Self PERSONALITY. With achieved selfhood of survival
value, the self-Self reaches the
potential for transfer of its seat of identity of its soul’s evolving
personality from its transient evolutionary physical vehicle of the “I am self ”into the more
enduring morontial body of its now immortal “I AM Self” morontial soul. The actual
transfer from the material solar “I am” PUMA self-Self association to the morontial “I AM Self” identification is effected only
by the persistent, sincere, and steadfast faith driven work
of God-seeking soul of human evolutionary nature. CONCLUSION The endowment of the evolutionary organic
planetary solar cellular life and its mind with ability to learn, the cellular memory
and its differential responses, is the result of its cellular ego-centric nuclear response,
selecting between the “inner” influences of the adjutant mind spiritual ministry, and
the “outer” influences of the surrounding planetary material environment gradually “molding”
its cellular organism’s personality and identity. Pre-intelligent organisms can only react
to environmental stimuli, but more intelligent organisms which are reactive to spirit
mind ministry can adjust and manipulate the environment itself through the
adaptation of their advancing mind. Organismal mind, therefore, learns from
it’s cellular experiential exposures and from it’s reactive behavioral habits developed in
response to the “inner and outer” stimuli. The evolving lower life intellect with
it’s functional physical brain and its associated nervous system has the innate capacity to
respond to adjutant spirit mind ministry, and the evolving minds of higher organic life possesses
an innate receptivity capacity for higher spirits. Through it’s plasma cell content, the
evolutionary organism has all the necessary ascending potentials for it’s intellectual, social,
moral, and spiritual progress and attainment requiring it’s appropriate responses and choices
choosing between the mind ministry of adjutant spirits, and later, their higher super-physical
associates, and the influences of the outer surrounding material environment and its planetary
life, if it desires to survive and evolutionary ascend. Once individualized into human form, the
same principles apply to evolutionary human soul. Man’s soul has to free-willingly choose,
through the spiritual evolutionary survival strives of it’s faith and wisdom, to better
understand the God as the creator of the universe and life, and the God’s universe laws, if it desires
the ascension of its solar “I am” PUMA-selfhood of the planetary realms, and the salvation by
translation into the immortal morontial solar “I AM” Selfhood of the eternal “Kingdom of
Heaven”. References: 1. The Urantia book, The Urantia Foundation 2. Man Visible & Invisible, C. W. Leadbeater, The

the forgiveness, finds its way into the great darkness of
this world. Perceive the Light in all your brothers and sisters by fully
forgiving each other, because
it is only then that you will see their Light, know the higher Truth, and
achieve the happiness
of Brotherhood.”
