The existence of explosive energies in the mentality as the basis of life in predatory animals.
295. Cosmic analyses show that "dynamite", "gunpowder" and other explosives are not merely physical phenomena with which one can blast through rocks and mountains or destroy the property and organisms of other living beings, but in a certain zone of existence they are also the main life-energy in the organs and flesh and blood of living beings themselves. If explosive energies were not able to exist equally well in the consciousness of living beings, releasing themselves through the organs, the flesh and the blood, in the same way as they can exist externally in the form of physical explosives, then anything existing under the concept "beast of prey" would be out of the question.
      The fits of rage which give the tiger or any other predatory animal the power and strength to attain what is so vitally important for it – the overpowering, killing and dismembering of its victim – is entirely due to the presence of physical explosives in its own consciousness or animal mentality.
