Earth currents, terrestrial magnetism, and atmospheric electricity are all due to the fact that the earth is an electrified conductor, whose potential is ever changing owing to its rotation and its annual orbital motion, the successive cooling and heating of the air, the formation of clouds and rain, storms and winds. All such changes are due to akashic magnetism incessantly generating electric currents which tend to restore the disturbed equilibrium by producing weather changes and sudden disturbances. It is the earth’s magnetism that produces wind, storms, and rain. The Sun has nothing to do whatsoever with rain, and very little with heat. High above our earth’s surface the air is filled with magnetic or meteoric dust, which does not even belong to our solar system. As earth is passing through space, millions of meteors and fine meteoric particles reach us daily, without having undergone any change, the magnetism of the earth keeping them in cohesion. The relative distribution and proportion of land and water on our globe may be due to the great accumulation upon it of meteoric dust — snow, especially in the northern regions, being full of meteoric iron and magnetic particles; such deposits are found even in the bottom of oceans and seas. And, therefore, the northern hemisphere receives a greater proportion of meteoric dust than the southern, because of the number of continents and abundance of snow and moisture. Our Master calls meteoric dust a “mass,” for it is really one. Every atmospheric change and abrupt disturbance is due to the combined magnetism of the two great masses between which our atmosphere is compressed! Our earth’s magnetic attraction of meteoric dust, and the direct influence of the latter upon the sudden changes of temperature, especially in the matter of heat and cold, is still not a settled question. The Sun we see is not the central planet of our little universe, but only a veil or reflection of the Central Spiritual Sun of all Universes and solar systems. The head of a man in a strong ecstatic condition, when all the electricity of his system is centred around the brain, will represent (especially in darkness) a perfect simile of the Sun during such periods. The further the emanation of the Sun shoots out, the more it loses in intensity until, gradually subsiding, it fades out. Hence the rayed shape of the outer corona, whose effulgence proceeds from the magnetic nature of matter and electric energy — and not at all from intensely hot particles, as asserted by some astronomers. The Sun being the heart and brain of our Universe, we might compare its bright spots with the blood corpuscles of that luminary, though some of them are as large as Europe. The coronal changes have no effect upon the earth’s climate, though the spots have. The Sun is neither a solid, nor a liquid, nor yet a gaseous globe. It is a gigantic ball of electromagnetic forces, the store-house of universal life and motion, from which the latter pulsate in all directions, feeding the smallest atom as the greatest genius with the same material to the end of the Maha-Yuga. The Sun gives to All and takes back nothing from its planetary system. The Sun is Life itself, the all-pervading life, ever at work in its great laboratory. No planets, except one, have hitherto been discovered outside of the solar system, while we know with the sole help of our spiritual eye a number of them; every fully matured Sun-star having, like in our own system, several companion planets in fact. Every phenomenon is but the effect of the diversified motions of Akasha, the One Element and Causative Principle of All. There is a King-star, right behind Jupiter, that no mortal eye has ever seen during this Round. Could it be so perceived, it would appear as a small dimensionless point, thrown into the shadow by the brightness of any planet. Nevertheless, this Raja-Star is thousands of times larger than Jupiter.
