50 PART TWO<br />
We humans—<strong>the</strong> fal<strong>le</strong>n angels—must adapt ourselves to <strong>the</strong>se two princip<strong>le</strong>s<br />
that have determined who we are. The spiritual man, <strong>the</strong> soul, is <strong>the</strong> work of <strong>the</strong><br />
divine Word. Material man, <strong>the</strong> body, is Lucifer's creation. Our soul is divine,<br />
eternal. Our body is non-divine, perishab<strong>le</strong>. The soul, created by God, is Spirit.<br />
Banished to <strong>the</strong> Earth for having rebel<strong>le</strong>d against <strong>the</strong> Spirit, it has to remain in <strong>the</strong><br />
body until it has recognized <strong>the</strong> vanity of Earthly life <strong>and</strong> wishes to return to <strong>the</strong><br />
Spirit. A person should begin to redivinize himself now on Earth in order to return.<br />
In this case, souls, as <strong>the</strong>y w<strong>and</strong>er from star to star, must dematerialize <strong>the</strong>mselves<br />
until <strong>the</strong> doors of <strong>the</strong>ir real home open for <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
The stars perhaps enthrone <strong>the</strong> exalted soul As here vice ru<strong>le</strong>s,<br />
<strong>the</strong>re virtue has control.<br />
VON HALLER<br />
In his Universal Natural History <strong>and</strong> Theory of Heaven (1755), Immanuel<br />
Kant wrote:<br />
Who is so bold to dare an answer to <strong>the</strong> question whe<strong>the</strong>r sin exercises its<br />
sway also in <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r spheres of <strong>the</strong> cosmic structure or whe<strong>the</strong>r virtue alone<br />
has established her control <strong>the</strong>re? Does not a certain midd<strong>le</strong> position between<br />
wisdom <strong>and</strong> irrationality belong to <strong>the</strong> unfortunate capacity to sin? Who<br />
knows whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong> inhabitants of those distant ce<strong>le</strong>stial bodies are not too<br />
refined <strong>and</strong> too wise to allow <strong>the</strong>mselves to fall into <strong>the</strong> foolishness inherent<br />
in sin; whereas <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs who live in <strong>the</strong> lower planets adhere too firmly to<br />
material stuff <strong>and</strong> are provided with far too litt<strong>le</strong> spiritual capacity to have to<br />
drag <strong>the</strong>ir responsibility for <strong>the</strong>ir actions before <strong>the</strong> judgment seat of justice?<br />
The Cathars considered Earth to be Hell. To have to live in <strong>the</strong> midst of sin<br />
was a more atrocious punishment than having <strong>the</strong>ir f<strong>le</strong>sh torn with pincers, pricked<br />
<strong>and</strong> tortured by devils with horns <strong>and</strong> tails in an icy lake or a burning oven. "Earth<br />
is Hell," <strong>the</strong>y said. . . .<br />
For <strong>the</strong>m, death was nothing more than changing dirty clo<strong>the</strong>s, a litt<strong>le</strong> like<br />
butterflies ab<strong>and</strong>oning <strong>the</strong> chrysalis to lose <strong>the</strong>mselves in <strong>the</strong>
