Of this new birth it is said: "that which is born of the Spirit is spirit: ye must be born again." Rightly understood, therefore, the whole life of the personal man is for another, not for himself. OF THIS NEW BIRTH IT IS SAID THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT HE MUST BE BORN AGAIN RIGHTLY UNDERSTOOD THEREFORE THE WHOLE LIFE OF THE PERSONAL MAN IS FOR ANOTHER NOT FOR HIMSELF
n between the personal self and the spiritual man. All personal experience really exists for the sake of another: namely, the spiritual man. By perfectly concentrated Meditation on experience for the sake of the Self, comes a knowledge of the spiritual man. The divine ray of the Higher Self, which is eternal, impersonal and abstract, descends into life, and forms a personality, which, through the stress and storm of life, is hammered into a definite and concrete self-conscious individuality. The problem is, to blend these two powers, taking the eternal and spiritual being of the first, and blending with it, transferring into it, the self-conscious individuality of the second; and thus bringing to life a third being, the spiritual man, who is heir to the immortality of his father, the Higher Self, and yet has the self-conscious, concrete individuality of his other parent, the personal self. This is the true immaculate conception, the new birth from above, “conceived of the Holy Spirit.” ILURE TO PERCEIVE THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN THE PERSONAL SELF AND THE SPIRITUAL MAN ALL PERSONAL EXPERIENCE REALLY EXISTS FOR THE SAKE OF ANOTHER NAMELY THE SPIRITUAL MAN BY PERFECTLY CONCENTRATED MEDITATION ON EXPERIENCE FOR THE SAKE OF THE SELF COMES A KNOWLEDGE OF THE SPIRITUAL MAN THE DIVINE RAY OF THE HIGHER SELF WHICH IS ETERNAL IMPERSONAL AND ABSTRACT DESCENDS INTO LIFE AND FORMS A PERSONALITY WHICH THROUGH THE STRESS AND STORM OF LIFE IS HAMMERED INTO A DEFINITE AND CONCRETE SELF CONSCIOUS INDIVIDUALITY THE PROBLEM IS TO BLEND THESE TWO POWERS TAKING THE ETERNAL AND SPIRITUAL BEING OF THE FIRST AND BLENDING WITH IT TRANSFERRING INTO IT THE SELF CONSCIOUS INDIVIDUALITY OF THE SECOND AND THUS BRINGING TO LIFE A THIRD BEING THE SPIRITUAL MAN WHO IS HEIR TO THE IMMORTALITY OF HIS FATHER THE HIGHER SELF AND YET HAS THE SELF CONSCIOUS CONCRETE INDIVIDUALITY OF HIS OTHER PARENT THE PERSONAL SELF THIS IS THE TRUE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION THE NEW BIRTH FROM ABOVE CONCEIVED OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
