This shows us that the lower elements go down, and the higher elements go up. The higher planes are up, above. Christ is always depicted with his finger pointed upwards. Some have said, "Is Heaven then up in the sky?" The higher life, to which Christ points, is above. When you feel sad or sorry, you feel heavy, and drawn down to earth. Then you feel depressed. When you feel a joy, you feel light. What sadness is there in illumination? This is why the Parsis have worshipped the fire, the sun, as the purest element, the symbol of God. It was worshipped until it was said, "Do not worship the sun, the symbol, worship man, in whom is God Himself." But rather than worship men like themselves, men worshipped the elements, less than themselves, because there was not the jealousy of men.
