This is, perhaps, equivalent to the injunction: "Inquire of the earth, the air, and the water, of the secrets they hold for you. The development of your inner senses will enable you to do this." THIS IS PERHAPS EQUIVALENT TO THE INJUNCTION INQUIRE OF THE EARTH THE AIR AND THE WATER OF THE SECRETS THEY HOLD FOR YOU THE DEVELOPMENT OF YOUR INNER SENSES WILL ENABLE YOU TO DO THIS
 words of Paul: “I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such a one caught up to the third heaven. And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) how that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable [or, unspoken] words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.” The condition is, briefly, that of the awakened spiritual man, who sees and hears beyond the veil. 44. Mastery of the elements comes from perfectly concentrated Meditation on their five forms: the gross, the elemental, the subtle, the inherent, the purposive. These five forms are analogous to those recognized by modern physics: solid, liquid, gaseous, radiant and ionic. When the piercing vision of the awakened spiritual man is directed to the forms of matter, from within, as it were, from behind the scenes, then perfect mastery over the “beggarly elements” is attained. COMMENT ON THIS IS AFFORDED BY THE WORDS OF PAUL I KNEW A MAN IN CHRIST ABOVE FOURTEEN YEARS AGO WHETHER IN THE BODY I CANNOT TELL OR WHETHER OUT OF THE BODY I CANNOT TELL GOD KNOWETH SUCH A ONE CAUGHT UP TO THE THIRD HEAVEN AND I KNEW SUCH A MAN WHETHER IN THE BODY OR OUT OF THE BODY I CANNOT TELL GOD KNOWETH HOW THAT HE WAS CAUGHT UP INTO PARADISE AND HEARD UNSPEAKABLE OR UNSPOKEN WORDS WHICH IT IS NOT LAWFUL FOR A MAN TO UTTER THE CONDITION IS BRIEFLY THAT OF THE AWAKENED SPIRITUAL MAN WHO SEES AND HEARS BEYOND THE VEIL SUTRA FORTY FOUR MASTERY OF THE ELEMENTS COMES FROM PERFECTLY CONCENTRATED MEDITATION ON THEIR FIVE FORMS THE GROSS THE ELEMENTAL THE SUBTLE THE INHERENT THE PROPOSIVE THESE FIVE FORMS ARE ANALOGOUS TO THOSE RECOGNIZED BY MODERN PHYSICS SOLID LIQUID GASEOUS RADIANT AND IONIC WHEN THE PIERCING VISION OF THE AWAKENED SPIRITUAL MAN IS DIRECTED TO THE FORMS OF MATTER FROM WITHIN AS IT WERE FROM BEHIND THE SCENES THEN PERFECT MASTERY OVER THE BEGGARLY ELEMENTS IS ATTAINED
