BIBLE VERSES

GOAT,-WHITE HE-GOAT, UNBORN, HORNLESS, BEARDED 

A symbol of the Higher Self incarnate in the lower nature, from which it climbs upward to Itself above.

"The He-Goat sprung from Pragāpati's head." The He-Goat is no other than Pragāpati." "The He-Goat doubtless is speech, and from speech the gods doubtless went to the God-head, to the summit ;- 'thereby they went to the height'; the height, doubtless, is the heavenly world." - Sata. Bráh., V., VI., VII. 5, 2, 36.

The Higher Self emanates from the supreme, and is the Supreme (actual). The Higher Self incarnate, expresses (speech) itself in its evolution of the ideals (gods) which aspire to the Highest (the summit). The Self in the qualities climbs the heights to atma-buddhi. White signifies perfection.
