DIVINE LOVE MAY BE RADIATED and therefore transmitted to others through the open heart of a living Soul. Both men and women may do this. The male, however, is able to transmit a higher spiritual frequency of Truth and Purpose. This does not make man superior to woman, it is just a universal pattern. To further illustrate this point let us first recall the ancient hermetic axiom: "As above, so below". We may observe the same divine blueprint that underlies the All also expressing itself in the sexual act between human beings. The man provides the life-seed to the the woman who, after receiving it, brings forth the child. Similarly, we may regard the Sun, the Father (male), radiating forth life-energies which are received by Mother Earth (female) who then enables all the diverse life-forms to spring forth from her womb, her matrix of creation. 

This same universal pattern is applicable between man and woman with regard to the Path of Return. Historically, we may recognise that the Avatar, the Messiah or Christ, has always been male. He comes to establish the Truth, to transmit the Purpose, to open up the Way, and the 

female, by devoting herself to the spiritual male and his mission, also attains liberation.

This relationship between male and female, yin and yang, is the immutable archetypical pattern of the Universe. A delightful symbolical example of such a divine romance between man and woman is given in Luke 7:38, where Mary Magdalene annoints the feet of Jesus with precious unguents. 

Divine Will, or spiritual Potency, may fertilise or catalyse divine Wisdom and Love in woman. By way of their true union, Spirit (male) brings forth potential divine blessings, and Matter (female) dispenses them unto all. This is how male and female unite for the common good; He giving the divine Seed and She, the Fruits thereof. 

The spiritual male is the provider of divine Purpose and carries the Spirit-Spark to ignite its manifestation in matter. The spiritual female receives the seed into her womb and is able to nurture the Christ-Child (Love) in matter. Together, their union fertilises the prepared and so fertile womb-consciousness or creatrix of the divine Mother who brings forth the offspring: a new creation, born of Love. Male and Female, therefore, combine vision with manifestation, pure divine Intent with the creative Means to manifest the Divine Plan in matter. Thus, in order to re-enter the Kingdom of God man must remember his divine Essence and give that in love to the female, and she, in turn, must open herself to receive the Spirit-Seed and thus provide the creatrix for birthing the Christ-Child. 

Today, chiefly owing to ignorance of right relationship between the sexes and therefore due to the distortion, misuse and perversion of the divine Romance, there is much disease in the world, psychologically, emotionally and physically. All disease may be healed instantly by divine Love, which may be experienced as Ecstasy in right relationship between yin and yang. Ecstasy may be fully realised and brought down to the physical plane only by way of divine union between male and female. Such is Universal Law: the divine pattern underlying all creation, which is demonstrated by all natural life, from the atom and its electrons to the sun and its orbiting planets, and beyond. 

The fallen male heals himself by transmitting the Spirit-Seed, the fallen female by receiving it and subsequently giving birth to a new creation. In this way male and female need one another. Under the Law of Polarity, male and female must integrate themselves all the way down to and including the physical plane, and this may be done only by looking up and out together, as one, in the same direction. 

When a fallen female identifies with the 'I' and thus remains in servitude to self, there will always be competition, self-grasping, fear and selfish desire, plus a tendency to seek escape routes for self, which will include a sick orientation toward the 'winning over' of men for her personal gratification and 'security'. 

When a man proceeds to live for self, he will seek to 'use and abuse' women, endeavouring to satisfy his innate spiritual longing by way of sexual lust and domination.

This, then, is the essential cause of the 'battle of the sexes': ignorance of right relationship and right sexual Purpose. 

The fundamental sickness of all men, then, is the same, just as is the fundamental sickness of women. Just as the male sickness may be healed by one essential divine Solution: divine transmission or giving Love, so also will the female sickness be healed by receiving that divine transmission, by receiving Love from the male. 

The open, trusting, devotional and receptive Love of the divine female dissolves the fear of the male, a fear that has over the ages turned into violence towards women due to man's terror of the woman being unable to receive him and so help him to realise his divine Purpose. Therefore, once females awaken to their true divine Nature and Purpose, then the patriarchal dominance on Earth in all its manifestations will be ended, and Christ may, at last, lift humanity's burdens into the Light of Redemption - both for women and men.

In order to completely understand the nature of the great complications and problems created throughout history by the battle of the sexes, we will need to further explore the essential make-up of the Universe, or God.
