The [[normal]] functioning of the [[human]] [[mind]] under the directive [[influence]] of the [[Adjutant Mind Spirits|sixth and seventh mind-adjutants] of universal spirit [[bestowal]] is wholly sufficient to insure such [[development]].

86:0.2 Man's earliest prereligious [[fear]] of the [[forces]] of [[nature]] gradually became [[religious]] as [[nature]] became personalized, spiritized, and eventually deified in [[human]] [[consciousness]]. Religion of a primitive type was therefore a [[natural]] [[biologic]] consequence of the [[psychologic]] [[inertia]] of evolving [[animal]] minds after such minds had once entertained [[concepts]] of the [[supernatural]].
