Thus our inner ego-nature, no less than our external form, is a unity that is divisible into three. Outer man divides into the seven-membered head man, the seven-membered middle man and the seven-membered foot man. Correspondingly, the inner ego of the human being divides, as soon as it takes the first step into the occult realm, into three parts or members,—the thinking man, the feeling man and the willing man, who stand each over against the other in complete independence. That is the second aspect of the mystery.
