81. But as the Almighty, in accordance with eternal law, continuously leads living beings forward and upward towards greater and greater light nearer to perfection, its message was also heard by the first ancestors of mankind. Its beam was over all living beings in the form of the Divine Creative Principle's light radiation. Then it was that the "light of justice" shone for the first time on the Earth, and in this light the first "Adam" and "Eve" saw that they were "naked". But this realization was the first feeble glimpse of a kingdom which was not of this world. And by this glimpse or first realization of "right" instead of "might" their accustomed animal way of life or the principle "might instead of right" was revealed to them for the first time as being "sinful". The animal was thus transformed into a "dawning human being". And through this change began its adversities and its disharmony with the kingdom to which for centuries it was still to be bound. The animal had thus begun to acquire the first feeble form of "human" consciousness. And as this form of consciousness in the said beings is always in the process of expanding, it therefore indicates that at that time they were moving further and further away from their harmony with the animal form of consciousness. They were on their way out of the "Garden of Paradise". This exodus, or "Expulsion" from the "Garden of Paradise" in its final analysis is the same as the evolution of the said living beings from the animal kingdom to the human kingdom, just as the "Fall" may similarly be identified as the collective manifestation of the tendencies they inherited from the animal kingdom appearing in contrast to the dawning of human tendencies. And those living beings who are thus on their way out of the animal kingdom can now be recognized collectively as constituting terrestrial humanity. Today, terrestrial humanity is as strongly as ever before on its way out of the "Garden of Paradise" or in other words on its way towards abandoning the condition of animal happiness.
