Theosophy, as its students well know, so far from involving Dualism, is based on the One, which becomes Two on manifestation, just as Atheism posits one existence, only cognisable in the duality force and matter, and as philosophic though not popular Theism teaches one Deity whereof are spirit and matter. Mr.
The idea must become part of him; else must he give up the study of the Lesser Mysteries. The Christ, as God and Man, only shows out on the kosmic scale the same fact of duality that is repeated everywhere in nature. On that original duality everything in the universe is formed. Man has a "natural body," and this is made up of four different and separable portions, and is subject to death.
Confusion of thought, and consequent confusion of object, is fatal to any conception, at least, to any military conception; it is absolutely opposed to concentration, for it implies duality of object. In the designing of a cruiser, as of any class of warship, the first step, before which none should be taken, is to decide the primary object to be realized, what is this ship meant to do?
If there is no change here towards the substance of these two men, our theory not only falls but its failure superimposes or allows us to presume a fundamental duality in music, and in all art for that matter.
I shall then briefly sketch the nature of that fundamental science which I believe to be the true metaphysic, in which mind and matter alike are seen to be constructed out of a neutral stuff, whose causal laws have no such duality as that of psychology, but form the basis upon which both physics and psychology are built.
But, an objection is raised, there is no other Self different from the individual Self; for scripture teaches the unity of all Selfs and denies duality. Terms such as 'the highest Self, 'the highest Brahman, 'the highest Lord, are merely designations of the individual soul in the state of Release.
It really contains but one subject, and is a song of the sweet summer of two souls, for there is obvious meaning in the duality of voices. Often heard in the concert room, this nocturne gives us a surfeit of sixths and thirds of elaborate ornamentation and monotone of mood. Yet it is a lovely, imploring melody, and harmonically most interesting.
I believe that the duality of meaning and denotation, though capable of a true interpretation, is misleading if taken as fundamental. The denotation, I believe, is not a constituent of the proposition, except in the case of proper names, i.e. of words which do not assign a property to an object, but merely and solely name it.
Vandin admits the existence of the six senses but says that the soul experiences happiness and misery through those as well as through the intellect. Ashtavakra advances an eighth element, namely, the knowledge of the ego. Thus is proved the eternity of prakriti or nature and is also established the doctrine of duality. Prakriti does not really create.
Here is the duality of Chopin the suffering man and Chopin the prophet of Poland. Undimmed is his poetic vision Poland will be free! undaunted his soul, though oppressed by a suffering body. There are in the work throes of agony blended with the trumpet notes of triumph.
