KAREZZA: Ethics of Marriage
An excerpt from the beginning of:

CHAPTER I.
CREATIVE ENERGY.

Let there be light.

The bodily life of man is the expression of his spiritual life. He is a trinity of spirit, soul and matter. Soul is the evidence of life, embracing all that is recognized as an individual, and from the Ego, or spirit, is capable consciously of developing unlimited powers or possibilities.

Soul is spirit in action. It looks within, to the All for life, knowledge and power which it expresses without, through the physical. As thought precedes action, so nothing can appear or manifest itself in the body that has not been conceived or thought of in the soul. Soul may recognize spirit as a governing principle, or it may look out through the senses for material manifestations, depending upon symbols only for its concept of life.

Voluntarily and consciously man may choose between these two roads,—the spiritual or material. He may recognize and believe all power and all life is from and of the spirit; or, in his philosophy, he may attribute all development, all growth, all evolution from and through matter.

In the spiritual view, recognizing the Divine principle as an ever present, active energy, as life and intelligence operating through the soul upon matter, one comes to conclusions that make all of life's problems less difficult.

One soon knows that creative energy, expressing through the sexual nature an instinct to perpetuate life, has its origin in, and is coexistent with life itself. It is the power back of all purposes and plans. It is the self-pushing force that gives the ability to do and perform. It is the origin of all activities of child life. It is the inventive genius and impelling factor of all man's handiwork — the thought force of mechanics and machinery.

Both the macrocosms and microcosms of the universe are expressions of the law of life — are an instinctive putting forth of the creative energy. This force operates in the multiplication of atoms and molecules, in the drawing the pollen upon the stigma; in the attraction of sperm to germ cells. It is the segregation and aggregation of all matter.

The process of growth and fulfillment of functions are propelled by this omnipresent energy of spirit, which is inherent in, and operative through, all nature. It is back of and expresses itself through the physical life of man and other animals. It is only when it comes with the strong voice of life demanding perpetuation, that it is especially a manifestation of the sex nature — a fulfillment of the law of growth, development and increase. Atoms, cells and plants, are unconscious of this life force, and animals conscious only in a small degree.

Man not only has consciousness of this energy, but through his intelligence is capable of developing greater consciousness of the operation of it and the law governing it. He knows that he knows, and in this knowledge lies his superiority over the brutes.

This recognition and knowledge makes it possible for man to train this creative potency in all life's purposes and uses. From the inception of the bud of life to its fructifying stage, he may be the master and maker of conditions. There is no karma for him that is not within his own power to mold and make; no passion to usurp authority, no desire that he may not guide and direct. The perfectness of his nature is evolved through the recognition, direction and appropriation of the creative energy, the occult forces of life.

Sexual science based upon this theory teaches that there are deeper purposes and meanings to the reproductive faculties and functions, than are understood and taught by most people.

It is discovered that in the physical union of male and female there may be a soul communion giving not only supreme happiness, but in turn conducing to soul growth and development, and also that there may be a purpose and power in this communion, rightly understood, not less significant than the begetting of children. Creative energy in man is manifold in its manifestations, and can be trained into channels of usefulness and power.

Sex is universal in nature, and as progression is made from lower to higher manifestations of life, is more distinctive as male and female.

Sexual instinct or passion is an insignia of seed germination; it is an indication that life may be perpetuated, and that the entire man or woman is in preparation for this, the culmination of being. It is not an instinct or power to be either ignored or destroyed. Its perversion means physical and spiritual degeneracy.

Seed production is the goal or highest function of tree or plant, and procreation is the complete or ultimate manifestation of man's life. Reproduction is first fulfilment of Divine law.
