110. INCARNATIONS OF BRAHMA AND THE SUPREME BEING

            167. To reclaim the denizens of Brahmanda, referred to above, and ameliorate the condition of the third grand division, Brahma has often to manifest himself as an incarnation in this world. His sons and prophets, (i.e. the denizens specially charged by Brahma with his own spirituality) are also often sent with the same object. Similarly, the true Supreme Creator, the Infinite Source of spirit, the Unapproachable and August Supreme Deity of the highest and the endless region of spirit, also incarnates and makes His gracious advent into this world, when the Trikuti is within the limits of conjunction with the spiritual region. The spirituality that descends at such happy periods is immense, and the entire creation below the region of the first grand division is highly blessed. This is the time when an opportunity is afforded to all human entities for that spiritual training which would enable them to enter the regions and the mansion of the true Supreme Creator. His advent infuses spirituality of the highest order into Brahmanda and Pind, and establishes an upward current which is the path by which the devotee reaches the first grand division and thus attains everlasting bliss and immortality. Along with the advent of the incarnation of the gracious Radhasoami. the denizens of higher regions (specially of Brahmanda) often avail themselves of the golden opportunity so presented and come down with Him into this world. They are the entities most fitted for the sowing of the spiritual germs of Sat Loka and the higher regions, which is indispensable for impartation of that spirituality which alone can enable them to ride upon the spiritual current established with the first grand division. The devotional practice appears to them to be very congenial, and it is always attended with success. The elevation to Sat Loka is, however, not confined to the entities referred to above. The seed of the highest spirituality is sown in the most spiritual denizens of the various spheres of the third grand division also, whether they belong to the human or other animate creation. Gradually, these spiritual entities are endowed with the necessary spiritual strength and energy for the performance of the spiritual practice prescribed by Merciful Radhasoami, and eventually they, too, obtain true emancipation and immortality. Saints, as stated in Article 52, are the special sons of the gracious Radhasoami, as their spiritual essence has been derived from Him. At the blessed period of conjunction referred to, they also frequently make their advent into this world, and perform almost the same gracious work of amelioration and redemption as is performed by the august incarnation of the Supreme Being Himself. When the period of conjunction approaches its termination, the great dissolution takes place as stated in Article 108. By that time the work of redemption and spiritualization is also completed.
