Man is a product of the evolutionary process. It is an interesting fact that the growth of every embryo mirrors each stage of the evolutionary development of man.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, the great Jesuit priest-paleontologist, posits the presence of two distinctive types of energy involved in the process of evolution.
We shall assume that, essentially, all energy is physical in nature but add that in each particular element this fundamental energy is divided into two distinct components: a tangential energy which links the element with all others of the same order (that is to say of the same complexity and the same centricity) as itself in the universe; and a radial energy which draws it towards ever-greater complexity and centricity-in other words forwards.
Radial energies relate to consciousness and very possibly, in the subtler forms, they may well relate to the various levels of "love energy." The late Harvard sociologist Pitrim Sorokin referred to this powerful energy in the following way:
Everywhere in the organic, inorganic, and psychosocial worlds the integrating and uniting role of love functions incessantly. Untiringly, it counteracts the dividing and separating forces of chaos and strife. Without the operation of love energy, the physical, the biological, and sociocultural cosmos would have fallen.. apart. No harmony, unity or order would have been possible. Universal disorder and enmity would have reigned supreme. As a creative energy, love unites what is separated, elevates what is base, purifies what is impure, ennobles what is ignoble, creates harmony in the world of enmity and peace in war. Love raises man as a biological organism to the level of divinity.3
Through the centuries the great philosophers, seers, prophets, and poets have caught glimpses of this man who is created in the divine image. Before Christ, Pythagoras was conscious of the harmony of the universe and described its inherent music. The seventeenth-century poet John Dryden writes, "From harmony, from heavenly harmony this universal form began...."4
Energy Fields
Several years ago I stood in front of Tintoretto's Madonna amazed at the master's understanding of the inner light that shines out of the human soul. Tintoretto must have been conscious of Mary's supporting light and perceived the heavenly host that accompanied her.
The Light was again present about the Christ in Tintoretto's Deposition.6 This "light" was not the stylized aura of an earlier period of painting, but a scintillating light, portraying a power and strength that supported and surrounded the figures as only he could have observed it. This seems to me to be the actual "force field" that supports the human body.
Neurologist Shafica Karagulla has made a study of energy fields as observed by "sensitives" and comes to the conclusion that there are three or more such fields. When observed, they reveal different color patterns depending on the individual's consciousness and state of physical, emotional, and mental health. She says,
Many of the more intelligent and integrated sensitives with whom I have worked describe interpenetrating fields of energy around the human being. One of these is the vital field or energy body closely related to the physical. Much of my experimental work so far has dealt with this field in its relationship to physical conditions. The emotional field, extending a foot to eighteen inches beyond the body, and the mental field, extending an average of two feet or more beyond the periphery of the body, are a part of the unified field surrounding the human body.7
