We have been considering the question of whether this may include the sweat-born mode taught in the Book of Dzyan,\u00a0that occurred in an earlier age. Reproduction among the semi-physical and asexual humanity of that time is there\u00a0likened to the exudation of sweat. The parent exudes something like a drop of sweat, and this becomes the progeny. In being something that the body excretes, sweat is similar to\u00a0the several kinds of human excreta that the samm\u016brcchima humans are associated with. Further, samm\u016brcchima humans are all asexual. They are born by samm\u016brchana, condensing or hardening or congealing, translated as agglutination; that is, by material coalescing into a form, and this has often been referred to as spontaneous generation. However, the material that agglutinates to form them is not the human excreta that they originate in. These are only the places where they take birth. So this is quite different from the sweat-born as taught in the Book of Dzyan.<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">But this is not all. This paragraph of the <em>Praj\u00f1\u0101pan\u0101<\/em>\u00a0goes on to tell us that these\u00a0samm\u016brcchima humans are microscopic in size, and their life span is only momentary, less than 48 minutes (antar-muh\u016brta). Although they have five senses, in terms of consciousness they are insensible. They are truly unusual human beings, stranger than anything found in the Book of Dzyan.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">When I summed up the teachings of the Book of Dzyan on the four modes of birth in a single paragraph at the beginning of my first post on this topic, I necessarily made broad generalizations. Human evolution covered an immense period of time, and there were obviously many gradations in the general modes of birth given for the different humanities. The third humanity, for example, can be divided into three main stages. The first stage of the third humanity was still sweat-born, like the second humanity. The second stage was the egg-born. We are told that the separation of the sexes occurred in the fifth sub-race of this root-race (SD 2.715 fn.). So the womb-born was the third stage of this humanity. Likewise, we may assume that the sweat-born went through many gradations and stages. One\u00a0stanza refers to this mode of birth as &#8220;budding,&#8221; much like the udbhijja or sprouting mode of birth taught in Hinduism for plants. Whether the examples\u00a0given for\u00a0the samm\u016brcchima humans in the\u00a0<em>Praj\u00f1\u0101pan\u0101<\/em> have any relation to the sweat-born can only be known when the secret commentaries on the Book of Dzyan become available, or perhaps if the lost Jaina P\u016brvas and\u00a0<em>D\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e6div\u0101da<\/em> become available. The strange samm\u016brcchima humans born by agglutination in human excretions certainly present us with an enigma.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Strange as this material is, on the samm\u016brcchima or agglutination\u00a0mode of birth for humans\u00a0found in Jainism, there is more.
