The moon is said to be the scene of a life even more immersed in
matter than the life on earth. Are there then material organizations
living there? If so, how do they dispense with air and water, and how
is it that our telescopes discern no trace of their works? We should
much like a fuller account of the Adepts' view of the moon, as so much
is already known of her material conditions that further knowledge could
be more easily adjusted than in the case (for instance) of planets
wholly invisible.
5. Is the expression "a mineral monad" authorized by the Adepts? If so,
what relation does the monad bear to the atom, or the molecule, of
ordinary scientific hypothesis? And does each mineral monad eventually
become a vegetable monad, and then at last a human being? Turning now
to some historical difficulties, we would ask as follows:--
6. Is there not some confusion in the letter quoted on p. 62 of
"Esoteric Buddhism," where "the old Greeks and Romans" are said to have
been Atlanteans? The Greeks and Romans were surely Aryans, like the
Adepts and ourselves: their language being, as one may say,
intermediate between Sanscrit and modern European dialects.
