It would help me if you could see the distinction I'm trying to make
between eternal and immortal. We humans are in an eternal state because we
are cycling in birth and death. Other beings, including early man, would be
in an immortal state of existence because they don't take physical bodies
and then cast them off YET. For instance wasn't 1st race man in his etheric
bodies. Well, if I were in an etheric, hovering state and trying to become
physical, it would benefit me to try to stay within the BEST physical
bodies available on the planet (that would be the dinosaurs) and to try to
develop my own previously attained level of physical existence and
form from what was available PHYSICALLY in the body of the dinosaur.

I'm hoping that some day we can trade our eternal existence with masters
and assume their immortal existence (in our seventh race). Is there
anything in THE SECRET DOCTRINE about humans some day becoming undying?
