Triangles. An Esoteric Approach

by Dr. Ekkirala Krishnamacharya

If you want to do anything, you have the triangle composed by: the doer, the deed and the done. Thus, everyone has his own triangle in the process of doing anything in this world. No one can avoid this triangular process in any branch of activity. It is called the triangle of inevitability in the Ancient Scriptures. It is also called the threefold nature of mind, because this triangle exists nowhere except in the mind.

In the booklet “Triangles. An Esoteric Approach” Dr E. Krishnamacharya (Master EK) presents the most important aspects of the ancient and modern teachings about the triangles and about the threefold nature of the Universe.

The Threefold Wisdom

The topic programmed for the three days is triangles. These three lectures form the triangle which we can call the imponderable triangle. This topic is beyond human comprehension. We can at best open our windows to the subject and allow some sunshine through the window into the house. Just as you cannot demand the sunshine into the house, you have to wait until the correct angle is formed with the sun's rays before we can welcome the ray into our house. We have to wait for something when we invite such subjects into our comprehension.

These subjects cannot be demanded by intelligence. The human intelligence cannot command these subjects or call these subjects to come and get understood. The human intelligence has to learn the art of waiting before it can receive the correct perception of these subjects.

Before we enter into the subject, let us understand that the foremost thinkers of all times have given to humanity something about the triangles. Pythagoras has given as many as 33 volumes on the triangles of which we came to know the theorem of the right-angled triangle. A Master of the recent centuries called the Hungarian Adept Comte de Saint Germain, gave us a book called the Holy Trinosophia, which means "The Threefold Wisdom". Every Scripture talks about the triangles. The whole of the Vedic Wisdom is called Trividya, meaning the threefold wisdom. In Sanskrit the word Tri means threefold and the word Vidya means wisdom.

I will try to present the most important aspects of the ancient and modern literature about the triangles. The first and the most interesting aspect is about the threefold nature of the Universe. Madame H.P. Blavatsky, for the first time made a very significant statement in her book "Isis Unveiled", saying that the whole Creation is a triangle of forces, a threefold activity, and the secrets of Creation are locked in the threefold nature of Creation. There is only one key to unlock it. Unless we try to open that lock with that one original key, we are not allowed to enter into the hall of mysteries of Nature. And that key is the nature of man or the individual. So, it is also threefold, the threefold nature of Creation is the one lock which locks the box of mysteries. And the threefold nature of man is the key with which we have to unlock the lock. Man tried with many other keys for a long time and there was no result. We had to wait outside. Madame H.P. Blavatsky explains the threefold nature of Creation and the threefold nature of the human being. She explains exactly in accordance with the explanations of the Ancient Scriptures.

This is one aspect about the triangle described in the Scriptures, which is called the threefold nature of the individual and the Universe. The threefold nature of the Universe is the lock and the threefold nature of the individual is the key which opens the lock. When H.P. Blavatsky expressed this thought, she represented centuries and centuries in these two sentences, because they contain the import of many Scriptures.

The Threefold Activity of Mind

The threefold activity of mind is inevitable in our daily routine although we can never avoid a triangle which is around us. If you want to open a door with the key, you are there as the one, the key is there as the second and the attempt is there as the third. If you want to read a book, you are there as the reader, the book is there as the second item, and the process of reading is there as the third item. If you want to do anything, you have the triangle composed by: the doer, the deed and the done. Thus, everyone has his own triangle in the process of doing anything in this world. No one can avoid this triangular process in any branch of activity. It is called the triangle of inevitability in the Ancient Scriptures. It is also called the threefold nature of mind, because this triangle exists nowhere except in the mind. Whenever there is mind, there is what is called objectivity and wherever there is objectivity, there is this triangle.

If I want to eat, I am there as the eater, the food is there as the eaten, and the process of eating is there as the action. This is why the expression of the mind shapes into a threefold nature, which is expressed into the form of a sentence, which we call the threefold nature composed by: subject, object and predicate. Wherever there is a sentence, that is, wherever there is the import of the mind objectivized, there is the triangular activity of the subject, object and predicate. So, the grammar of the sentence in every language includes the same. This is the unavoidable triangle, and until you get out of this triangle, there is no possibility of experiencing what wisdom is. This is what the spiritual texts of the Ancient say.
