Regarding the microcosmos it is perhaps easier to understand that it is populated by living beings. If our organs, glands, cells, etc. were not living, how could our organisms possibly be built and maintained as a living organism? Otherwise it would be only a corpse, an absolutely immovable mass. But our organism is not so. It is not even so just after the so-called "death" of its owner. A process continuously takes place in the corpse, which is logical in that it dissolves this corpse or this physical organism, which can no longer be an instrument for its spiritual source or I. Both the macrocosmos and the microcosmos are thus a system of many different forms of movement, which are forms of creation, which in turn cannot exist without being a manifestation of consciousness. We have already in previous analyses seen that such a manifestation absolutely can take place only with a living "Something" or I as its originator. Since many different individual manifestations of consciousness are found, there is thus an I behind each of them. These manifestations of consciousness, with their directing and experiencing I behind them we know as "living beings". Thus all the functions of the universe are manifestations of consciousness, processes of creation and transformations of substance promoted by an endless ocean of living beings. All existing independent working centres of force in the creative processes of Nature are thus each an organism for a living being in the same way as our organism is an independent individual centre of force for our I, which thus is its directing originator.
