"This mysterious process of a nine-months' formation, the Kabalists call the completion of the 'individual cycle of evolution.' As the foetus develops amidst the liquor amnii in the womb, so the Earths germinate in the universal ether, or astral fluid, in the womb of the Universe" (SD 2:188).

• Bottles are good to dream of if well filled with transparent liquid. You will overcome all obstacles in affairs of the heart, prosperous engagements will ensue.

Entelechy (from Greek entelecheia from en telos echein to be complete)

In Aristotelian philosophy, actuality as opposed to potentiality: water is potentially solid, liquid, or gas, but actually only one of these at a time. Soul is spoken of by Aristotle as the entelecheia of body -- the subsisting principle of the body's existence, and therefore the real although unseen actuality of the body's being, irrespective of emanated monads from the fundamental spirit-substance (svabhavat), when the latter is considered as their collective unity.

It is the principle or substantive element of a being or thing, which produces or makes the actuality of such being or thing, considered apart from or irrespective of dependent or derivative powers or qualities.

• To lose a mortgage, if it cannot be found again, implies loss and worry.

Ethereal, Ethereality Used in an attempt to define states of matter more refined and less dense than familiar physical matter.

The differences between the higher divisions of matter is analogous to the corresponding subdivisions of physical matter -- solid, liquid, gas, and fiery. Thus the characteristic of the solid is fixity of form, restriction of movement; that of liquid, mobility; of gas, expansibility; while the fiery element among other things is exempt from gravitation. The major divisions of matter must be graded on a somewhat analogous scale.

There is a clear distinction between

1)    akasa;

2)    the astral light; and

3)    ether.

Akasa in its higher portions is pure spirit; the astral light is the seventh or highest division of our physical cosmic plane and may even in a sense be called the most subtle part of the terrestrial atmosphere; whereas ether is a material agent or stuff interpenetrating molecular matter, and is therefore even more gross than is the astral light. In one sense these three are the highest, the very low, and the lowest parts of spirit or akasa itself, the physical stuff or body of our plane being its lees or dregs.

VARUNA

One of the Vedic deities, the God of Water -- symbolizes "the Waters of Space." In the Agastya Samhita are instructions for building a dry-cell battery. Liquid energy, called Mitra Varuna ("Friendly Water God") is produced. Water can thereby be divided into Prana-vayu and Udana-vayu. Vayu means "air." Thus the Ancient Hindus correctly analyzed water as the mixture of two gases. Prana is the life principle (so must correspond to oxygen, which is essential to life) and Udana means "upward breathing" (so must correspond to hydrogen, which is the lightest element).

TATTWA

The four Hindu elements (See AKASHA): earth, Prithivi (yellow square); Water, Apas (silver crescent); Air, Vayu (blue hexagon or circle); Fire, Tejas (red triangle). The colors and geometrics for Apas and Tejas are self evident. Prithivi is yellow to suggest the ochres and greenery of earth, it is a four-sided figure to indicate the fourfold states of matter (solid, liquid, gas, plasm) and three dimensions of space plus one dimension of time. Vayu is blue to suggest the sky and the color of reason. Since air is dispersive it is characterized by a circle or hexagram -- in order to demonstrate its progress from the center outward in all directions.

Nadi (Sanskrit) A tube, vessel, or channel; that along which something flows, be it a liquid or the current of a force. Applied indiscriminately to blood vessels and nerves, and to the three mystic channels that really form the spinal column, and which carry vital and other important currents in the human constitution.

The nadis are all intimately connected in function and structure with the chakras, being the influent and effluent channels to and fro as between nadi and other nadis and the body generally; for the chakras, although mainly functional in the astral part of the auric body, nevertheless have corresponding organs in the physical body.
