BONES, WHITESymbolic of the spiritual foundation of the structure of the vehicles of consciousness of the ego. "And the kindly earth in its broad hollows received two out of the eight parts of bright Nestis, and four of Hephaistos, and they became white bones, fitted together marvellously by the glues of harmony." - Empedocles, FAIRBANKS, 199. And the lower self through the physical vehicle (Nestis) which was now being organised and adapted for the functioning of the ego, became the seat of two senses,-taste and touch, the other inner senses are at this period unmanifested. The "four of Hephaistos" are sight, hearing, smell, and the intuitive faculty. The "white bones " are comparable to the firm foundation to which the consciousness is now attached, and the being "fitted together, etc." signifies the perfect adjustment of each condition to each. |
