Image +

Occultism permits no other image than that of the living image of divine man (the symbol of Humanity) on earth. The ''Kabbala ''teaches that this divine Image, the copy of the ''sublime and holy upper Image ''(the Elohim) has now changed into ''another similitude'', owing to the development of men’s sinful nature. It is only the ''upper divine Image ''(the Ego) which is the same; the lower (personality) has changed, and man, now fearing the wild beasts, has grown to bear on his face the similitude of many of them. (''Zohar ''I. fol. 71a.) In the early period of Egypt there were no images; but later, as Lenormand says, “In the sanctuaries of Egypt they divided the properties of nature and consequently of Divinity (the Elohim, or the Egos), into seven abstract qualities, characterised each by an emblem, which are matter, cohesion, fluxion, coagulation, accumulation, station and division ”. These were all attributes symbolized in various images [[Category: CTD info from Theosophical Glossary]] (TG). +

Imagination +

In Occultism this is not to be confused with fancy, as it is one of the plastic powers of the higher Soul, and is the memory of the preceding incarnations, which, however disfigured by the lower Manas, yet rests always on a ground of truth [[Category: CTD info from Theosophical Glossary]] (TG). +
