751. In star figure no. 11 in the symbol we once again see the symbol of the living being in the form of a triangle. Issuing from this triangle a circular track has been drawn. The dotted line and the two arrows indicate that this track issues from the triangle and must, due to its circular form, return to it again. Just as this track goes in a circle and thereby strikes its starting point, so too do all releases, all manifestations, that in any way can emanate from a living being also go in arcs and thereby unavoidably return to their starting point, that is to say, to their originator. We call the reactions caused by the return of these arcs of energy "fate". No living being can manifest without this manifestation deciding the nature of the being's later experience of life.
      Since the "straight line", as we shall see later in "Livets Bog", cannot exist without at the same time being a segment of a circular track, no movement or release of energy will be able to exist without moving in circular tracks. Due to this law every being is therefore the one and only true originator of its own fate. It quite literally in its consciousness cannot avoid "reaping what its sows".
