BIBLE VERSES

DEEP OR DEPTHS 

A symbol of the lower nature as a region of darkness below the higher nature.

Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). ROм. X. 7.

This refers to the mistaken notion that the lower nature can command the higher. It is Christ of his own power who rises from the dead lower nature in the souls of men.

“When there were no depths, I was brought forth." - PROV. viii. 24.

Prior to the reflection of the Higher Self (atma-buddhi) in the "depths," -lower nature-the Higher Self was manifest on the higher planes.
