SOUTH WIND
A symbol of currents of the emotion of love
stirring the mind to thought and action.
“Once, the south wind upset Adapa's skiff, and in revenge he broke
his wings. But the south wind was a servant of Anu, and the God of
the Sky demanded the punishment of the daring mortal. Ea, however,
intervened to save the man he had created." - SAYCE, Story of Adapa.
On an occasion in the mind's awakenment, the vibrations from the
emotion, or higher astral, plane,—a strong breeze of love,-surged
about the primeval mind so that it was well-nigh capsized, and in
its perplexity it put forth an effort of will and restrained its
emotion, so that it could not for awhile soar into the realms of
fancy, for it had reflected. But the emotion-nature is a servant of
the Highest (Anu), and an aspect of the One Life: and so it was that
the daring and presumptuous mortal was called upon to account for
that which he had done. He had asserted himself. He had become one
of Us." Intelligence is the function which involves choice, and as
such introduces will,-which makes man, the individuality, as God.
And herein arises karina. The Supreme (Ea), however, intervened. God
does not leave man to the karmic law alone; in other words, the
lesser life, the individual, after its fall into matter, is even yet
in touch with the Greater Life, or more correctly, the Greater is in
conscious communication with the individual life in order to raise
it from the lower conditions.
