🌻 His Manifestation of Duty - 1 🌻

Divinity is the conscious state of infinite consciousness, conscious of its own infinity. Divinity is all-pervading and it exists in everyone.

The same divinity is latent in both animate and inanimate beings, but because of the difference in every level of conscious-ness throughout evolution and involution, the manifestation of divinity is experienced in varying degrees by each being.

Conscious infinity pervades the universe; this conscious infinity is what makes every particle of life in creation possess an aspect of divinity.

Though divinity remains always manifest, it is because of the impact of the impressions of illusion that the divine nature of all things and beings is not experienced. To realize and experience divinity is the aim of each being's life.

But since each being's life is encompassed by illusion, divinity cannot be realized until the sanskaric impressions of illusion are wiped out of the individual mind. Only then is illusion known to be illusion.

Before one can realize his own divinity, the manifesting illusion must be brought to an end. Creation's purpose is to be known, in the end, as illusion.

The sanskaric seeds of illusion are sown from the beginning of one's own self-creating. Unless those seeds germinate to bear flowers and fruits, it is not possible to experience creation as illusion.

In the human form, it becomes possible to know illusion as illusion, and to realize and fully experience one's divinity—the INFINITE CONSCIOUSNESS of the soul's infinity.

The divinity of the soul is ever manifest; the soul is ever one with God. But why doesn't the soul in man experience its oneness with God? It is because of the sanskaric impressions that have produced a seven layered veil that cannot be penetrated by an ordinary man.

This seven layered veil is made of three types of sanskaric material; the first and thickest layer is made of gross material; the next four layers are made of thin subtle or pranic material; and the next two layers are made of the thinnest mental material.

Each layer of the veil corresponds to the illusory material found in the gross, subtle and mental worlds. Until the veils disappear, the mind of man cannot see his own all-pervading divinity.

Aspects of divinity are experienced throughout the six planes of involution. Involution is the process by which the veils of illusion are removed.

During involution the sanskaric impressions become thinner and thinner as each successive veil is removed.

When Meher Baba called this veil sevenfold, it meant there are seven layers, and as individual consciousness experiences involution and the sanskaras become thinner in their winding and unwinding, each layer folds away.

The seventh, or gross layer, is the thickest and is the most difficult to remove, because it is linked with age-old association and identification with form or body.

This gross layer consists of sanskaric material that is as old as one's beginning in creation — gross sounds, gross bodies, and gross instincts. In man this grossness takes the shape of gross speech, actions, and thoughts.
