Let us consider the salient features of the Garden of Eden story. From these may be found interpretation of the individual experiences, and development in Consciousness, that correspond to the race unfoldment.

GENESIS. CHAPTER SECOND.

(Find the chapter and read the verses as given in the following):

Notice first that everything was formed out of the ground --- plants (verse 9), animals (verse 19), man (verse 7). It is plain that the ground signifies the Source, the Substance that is Universal. From this we learn that all forms are of one Source and one Substance.

Again, notice that only "man became a living soul." In the creative story, "the moving creature that hath life" (margin, soul) is brought forth in the fifth day. (Gen. 1: 20.) It is called a new thought that animals have souls, but it is mentioned in the first chapter of the Bible!

Wherein, then, differs man from animal, plant or clod? Only in development. "A living soul" is a conscious soul; man conscious of being, not haying a soul. God did not give to man a soul, but made him a living soul. It is the discovery of being rather than getting and having that is to-day our joy and strength.
