| and far. Be in God. 10. MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES I greet you | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| is that incarnations change from male incarnation to female and vice versa. Can you clarify this point | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| me? ANSWER: Fundamentally, each being is male or female, and in most incarnations the entities follow their | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| the active and receptive, that is, male and female, aspects. You all know that ultimately unification must | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| often even much later, when the male and female elements have become one. The Fall is the | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| the unified being, in which the male and female parts are integrated, in the shape of a | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| twin entities in which both the male and female poles are contained. God has created them both | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| right for the male principle to take on female functions, and vice versa. Think back again to | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| incarnations you lived as a male or a female, you would know in what manner your splitting | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| being represents fundamentally either the male or the female principle and either the one or the other | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| QUESTION: When a person is incarnated as a female, but feels herself more masculine, is it a | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| question whether incarnations occur alternating as male and female as against the supposition that there are only | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| dependent on whether the body is male or female. The basic principle of the masculine persists even | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| active or male aspect and the passive or female aspect. I explained that in the active aspect | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| active, thinking, planning -- the Creator. In the female aspect God is in a state of being | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| teachers and philosophers have experienced God in the female and passive manifestation. That is a partial answer | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| understandable that a philosophy experiencing God in the female aspect would be less likely to receive enlightenment | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| would be blind to the experience of the female side of God and enlightenment in the Eastern | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| QUESTION: Is that perhaps the reason why the female aspect of God is recognized more there and | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| the latter was in conjunction with the divine female aspect. When it is said that God created | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| making decisions. In this flowing state, the divine female aspect is prevalent. It is the state of | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| in their highest state of development. If their female aspect is prevalent, they merge with God in | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| degree of development combines the male and the female aspects of divinity. There is no inner division | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| a fear and hatred of the mother, or female mother-substitutes, rather than love for her and identification | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| into it. But then how would you interpret female homosexuality? May it be just the opposite? Yes | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| you see, the higher self is male and female, or contains masculine and feminine currents and traits | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| or the soul must be both male and female to be complete. So for four or five | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| might be male and then one might be female for four or five incarnations. Consequently one might | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| entity is one being, consisting of male and female qualities. Only after the fall did the split | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| male qualities and the other part all the female ones. Since the fall was the product of | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| split is much more uneven, combining male and female qualities in both halves. In other instances the | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| the split entity is more predominantly male or female, the other part will correspond to it and | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| separated the male is exclusively male, and the female entirely female. As you know very well, in | 55 THREE COSMIC PRINCIPLES: THE EXPANDING, THE RESTRICTING, AND THE STATIC PRINCIPLES |
| male is exclusively male, and the female entirely female. As you know very well, in each female | 55 THREE COSMIC PRINCIPLES: THE EXPANDING, THE RESTRICTING, AND THE STATIC PRINCIPLES |
| female. As you know very well, in each female the male is represented and in each male | 55 THREE COSMIC PRINCIPLES: THE EXPANDING, THE RESTRICTING, AND THE STATIC PRINCIPLES |
| male is represented and in each male the female. In the harmonious person, both are integrated; the | 55 THREE COSMIC PRINCIPLES: THE EXPANDING, THE RESTRICTING, AND THE STATIC PRINCIPLES |
| harmonious person, both are integrated; the male and female qualities do not battle with one another, but | 55 THREE COSMIC PRINCIPLES: THE EXPANDING, THE RESTRICTING, AND THE STATIC PRINCIPLES |
| be thought of as typically male or typically female. There is a prevalent notion that the male | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| notion that the male is more intellectual, the female more intuitive. Even that is a misconception, at | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| anatomically, the male is the counterpart of the female, and the female is the counterpart of the | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| is the counterpart of the female, and the female is the counterpart of the male. Understanding the | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| original spirit as first created was male and female in one. When the development of all the | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| fallen beings will have been completed, male and female shall be one again. As one of the | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| For each man carries inside his soul the female side of his nature as each woman carries | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| not imagine that the male part in the female and the female part in the male is | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| the male part in the female and the female part in the male is exactly hidden, while | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| also accounts for supposed male trends in the female and supposed female trends in the male. The | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| supposed male trends in the female and supposed female trends in the male. The more flexible this | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| truth is that all these supposedly male or female trends exist in each person, and have a | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| same holds true of other supposedly male and female aspects. I will touch upon this only briefly | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| the necessity of welding the supposedly male and female qualities. One without the other will always result | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| two kinds of hormones? ANSWER: The male and female hormones are a physical aspect of this entire | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| live without male hormones and a man without female hormones. This physical manifestation is a proof of | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| -- and she does. It is only the female side in an entity's nature which is capable | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| is capable of giving birth. In woman, the female side is mostly turned outward on the disc | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| inward. Man, on the other hand, has the female, birth-giving side of his nature turned inward at | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |

| the same harmonious interaction of the male and female principles. Growth cannot come unless the right interaction | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| of these two forces: the male and the female, the initiating and the receptive forces. Every life | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| exists a tremendous tension between the male and female energy currents. This tension can manifest in a | 251 THE EVOLUTION AND SPIRITUAL MEANING OF MARRIAGE -- NEW AGE MARRIAGE |

| the positive, masculine principle, the other the negative, feminine principle -- and I ask you not to | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| then the masculine principle is at work. The feminine, receptive principle, is what dissolves itself, slowly and | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| positive, masculine principle, the other side the negative, feminine principle. When they are brought into unity, they | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| fashion. Therefore the fault could apportion to the feminine part what should be masculine, and vice versa | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| masculine principle but has gone over to the feminine side has to incarnate in the opposite side | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| not make sense for the healthy and harmonious feminine to change over to the masculine, for both | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| feel what you are in essence, masculine or feminine. The development will bring you to perfection as | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| so that the perfect masculine being must become feminine or vice versa. To believe this is human | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| as God is perfect in His/Her masculine and feminine aspects, each one as such, without having to | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| divine perfection. QUESTION: Does the separation between the feminine and the masculine continue all through the incarnational | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| this -- that there are in all men feminine elements and in all women masculine elements. This | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| to. A man can be born under a feminine sign and yet be an entirely healthy man | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| own development to its maximum -- then the feminine tendencies that are in him will never be | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| QUESTION: I have met people who were entirely feminine in the best sense of the word and | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| with hermaphrodites, where you can also distinguish between feminine and masculine types. Scientific records, I believe, indicate | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| the supposition that there are only masculine and feminine beings and no changeover. The same is valid | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| seemingly contradictory positions. As far as masculine and feminine incarnations go, you can come to realize that | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| of meditation we find the masculine and the feminine principles. The one is intellectually active and involved | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| masculine; the other is emotional and flowing, therefore feminine. Both of them are important. In a particular | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| to be so. QUESTION: In connection with the feminine and masculine principles, is it true that even | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| it true that even historical epochs can be feminine or masculine? ANSWER: Yes, that is true. Such | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| for example, that the twentieth century brings the feminine element more into the foreground? ANSWER: Yes, it | 10 MALE AND FEMALE INCARNATIONS: THEIR RHYTHMS AND CAUSES |
| is male and female, or contains masculine and feminine currents and traits. Of course, this enters into | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| that is part of the active life, the feminine side of his nature grows disproportionately. On the | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| Eve in Genesis stem from the masculine and feminine, that is, the active and passive aspects of | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| spirit, why is it that it is the feminine and passive aspect that is shown as taking | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| he erroneously had thought to be unmanly and feminine, he became less of a man instead of | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| him which are generally looked upon as being feminine, he will become more of a man, provided | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| human beings are endowed with both masculine and feminine tendencies. In the healthy person, both these aspects | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| the man more masculine and the woman more feminine. The tendencies of the opposite sex are not | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| one is. Therefore, the compatibility of masculine and feminine aspects makes the man more of a man | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| masculine than the man's need for love is feminine. Her intelligence, courage and activity in many areas | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| that all human beings possess both masculine and feminine traits. But there is still so much lack | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| confused about the union of its masculine and feminine sides and will feel isolating separative tendencies as | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| untruthful ideas about what is specifically masculine and feminine, making it even more difficult to overcome the | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| with its distorted counterpart in which men become feminine and women masculine. You all know that every | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| sex -- makes you more masculine or more feminine, unifies you through acceptance, understanding, strength, love, and | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| be termed as the prototypes of masculine and feminine aspects -- exist in both sexes but are | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| important recognitions in this respect. The masculine and feminine principles of discipline and strength versus self-surrender and | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| of interflowing movement between the masculine and the feminine principles, you have to determine your specific fears | 122 SELF-FULFILLMENT THROUGH SELF-REALIZATION AS MAN OR WOMAN |
| two complementing principles -- the masculine and the feminine principles -- in the widest possible sense. They | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| There is an envy in you of the feminine sex, for on that level, they seem to | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| be to talk about the creative masculine and feminine principles. The masculine and feminine principles exist in | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| creative masculine and feminine principles. The masculine and feminine principles exist in the psychic life of all | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| and women have not established both masculine and feminine principles within their own soul and mind, they | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| requires a fine balance between the masculine and feminine principles. The firmness of purpose not to follow | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| Conversely, those who, in distortion of the passive, feminine principle, trust in God in a way that | 163 MIND ACTIVITY AND MIND RECEPTIVITY |
| Let us take, for example, the masculine and feminine principles I discussed in the last lecture. Only | 164 FURTHER ASPECTS OF POLARITY -- SELFISHNESS |
| blessed, be in peace. 169. THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS Greetings, my friends | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| set in motion: this may be called the feminine principle in creation. As I have said before | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| As I have said before, the masculine and feminine principles exist in every endeavor and creative act | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| you understand and harmoniously use the masculine and feminine principles of creation and to what degree you | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| and that their minds can activate them. The feminine principle of receptivity, of letting the activating forces | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| person's authority, then the role of the creative feminine principle is perverted. By the same token, a | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| She must fear her self-determined enslavement. Thus the feminine principle or femininity is often wrongly associated with | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| fashion. In other words, he must observe the feminine principle in order to fully activate the masculine | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| in order to give herself over to the feminine. This interaction between man and woman expresses the | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| men and women express both the masculine and feminine principles, they must both cleanse their activating powers | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| The expression and handling of the masculine and feminine creative principles permeates your whole personality. Let us | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| what is activated come to fruition if the feminine creative principle is not allowed to function by | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| and partnerships must fail, when the masculine and feminine principles do not properly interact and complement one | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| which he is overactive, over-masculine, precisely where the feminine principle should reign. This distortion is a compensation | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| he is too passive and expresses the distorted feminine principle. Both these examples are also applicable to | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| women. Because the manifestation of the masculine and feminine principles in the inner life of the individual | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| them at once to his activation, violates the feminine principle of the particular creation. Thus the creation | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |
| resistance is a distortion also, but of the feminine creative principle. The key here is awareness. If | 169 THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE PRINCIPLES IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS |

| a merely receptive organism, thus illustrating the universal feminine principle. The mother in this case is the | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| the giver, and in that capacity the truly feminine woman expresses her masculine principle. For the adult | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| in connection with this topic. The masculine and feminine principles in the universe express themselves in every | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| movement of reaching, giving, acting, initiating, asserting. The feminine principle expresses the receptive movement of taking in | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| aggressions, hitting rather than giving and reaching. The feminine principle in distortion turns from loving receptivity and | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| your own psychic system of the masculine and feminine principles, if there is distortion and imbalance there | 207 THE SPIRITUAL SYMBOLISM AND SIGNIFICANCE OF SEXUALITY |
| terminology may best be called the masculine and feminine principles. They permeate all of creation. They are | 214 PSYCHIC NUCLEAR POINTS |
| spirit and allow the mind to express the feminine principle for a while. Until now the mind | 224 CREATIVE EMPTINESS |
| control. Now the mind has to express the feminine principle: receptivity. This does not mean that you | 224 CREATIVE EMPTINESS |
| one another in a distorted way. Both the feminine and the masculine principles must be represented in | 229 WOMAN AND MAN IN THE NEW AGE |
| be a man without incorporating the receptive, or feminine, principle. If he expresses only the masculine principle | 229 WOMAN AND MAN IN THE NEW AGE |
| disciplines within an individual, merging the masculine and feminine principles and power currents within an individual soul | 251 THE EVOLUTION AND SPIRITUAL MEANING OF MARRIAGE -- NEW AGE MARRIAGE |
| is a true fusion of the masculine and feminine principles as universal forces. Each sexual fusion will | 251 THE EVOLUTION AND SPIRITUAL MEANING OF MARRIAGE -- NEW AGE MARRIAGE |
