419. "Electricity", then, is the first thing to be brought about when a new physical globe, or heavenly body, is to be created somewhere out in space, as it is also the first thing that comes into being when the creation of a being's organism begins. Is sexual intercourse, coitus or the conception of a child anything else but a release or a transmission of "electrical" forces? Do not such events begin as an exceptionally lively manifestation of thought which, put into practical action in a normal way through the sex organs, is transmitted to the "sperm", which is actually the organism's "seed" and a form of physical "talent-kernels"? By means of this strong enlivening of the sexual thought-manifestations of the beings in question, a kind of ecstasy takes effect and, provided the sexual act is complete, the seed is brought into conditions where it can "germinate" and the creation of a new organism can now begin.
      The first thing that happens at the creation of a new organism is the gathering of mental forces which can be transmitted further through physical forces. And exactly the same thing happens when a new heavenly body is created out in space. A heavenly body is, moreover, an organism which, in its cosmic analysis, constitutes an I's physical tool for manifestation in the same way as our own physical organism is a tool for our own I to manifest on the physical plane. And just as the creation of our own organism cannot begin without the sexual act – that is, an inordinate release of suitable thought-energy which, through practical expansion, partly causes the transmission of seed, or semen, from the male organs to the female organs and partly enlivens the spermatozoa so that the necessary "germination" or development can begin – so, in just the same way, the creation of every heavenly body demands a previous inordinate sexual thought-manifestation by macrocosmic beings.
      The first purely material sign of visibility for terrestrial man of this process, this "macro-cosmic sexual act", constitutes everything which exists as "nebulae" and presents in actual fact the release of "macrocosmic seed". Within this "seed' more and more concentrated numbers of points become visible which gradually disengage themselves from their nebulous condition and condense themselves as independent luminous systems. It is these which we call "solar systems". These develop themselves still further and by degrees reveal themselves as consisting of concentrated points whose light is strongly diminishing, and indeed in some cases is quite extinguished. These dim or extinguished bodies constitute what we call the "planets". The Earth is a "planet" such as this.
      As these dark globes in many cases have become attached to lesser "planets' which we call "secondary planets", "satellites" or "moons", they actually do form a system in themselves. As is well known, our Earth possesses only one such secondary planet or "moon". But that it, too, consists of an immense system teeming with life and functions of energy in another way, and is a whole organism with micro-beings of flesh and blood, has indeed long been a known fact for the advanced investigator.
