DOG-STAR SIRIUS, OR SURA, AT THE KINVAT BRIDGE
A symbol of the fixed will in the higher mind, which the soul must attain to ere it be liberated from the lower nature, and become conscious on higher planes.
"Those who have chosen the good in this world are received after death by good spirits, and guided, under the protection of the dog Sura, to the bridge Kinvat: the wicked are dragged thither by the daevas." - Zoroastrian System.
They who have done well in their incarnations,-who have sown worthily, shall reap the fruits, or reward, hereafter, i.e. upon those planes whereon their consciousness is gradually awakening. The "dog-star" is a symbol of power, will, and tenacity of purpose, which qualities stand for the will of the faithful servant of the Higher Self, who has succeeded in crossing the "bridge of manas (mind) which unites the lower and higher consciousnesses. The wicked are the unperfected souls,— they who are relatively undeveloped and who are drawn away to incarnation by the lust of life, attachment, pride, and egotism.
