  Hello every one who reads this.

  In my small personal study of the Rays, I began to find they are
realities during my travelling through Europe and my interest in
various countries.
  I had already read some things on the subject, when I began to think
that there was really something true in the Rays. These are some of my
observations as of now:

- The 1st Ray is positive, masculine, focused and destructive energy.
The sensation of power when you are shooting (I am an amateur shooter)
is to me a very good example of this Ray´s energy. Another examples
are the militarism and emphasis on men dominating over women in some
countries, for example Pakistan and India. An interesting aspect of
this Ray is that unlinke the other 2 Major Rays it seems to be very
dynamic. Populations collectively conditioned by 1st Ray usually speak
fast (for example in most of India, Pakistan) with short, rough brakes
between sentences. This Ray is IMPULSE TOWARD SOMETHING, the force
which directs the bullet to its aim, the force which focuses the man
riding his motorcycle or Formula 1 car very fast. Populations
conditioned by this ray collectively tend to be a little rough, even
although polite. This energy is, in the human being, expressed as
INITIAL IMPULSE. The initial impulse for something has to have two
aspects: first, destroying the old thing, and second starting the new
one. For example when a person wakes up in a hurry he/she is using
this Ray´s energy, because he/she had to 1- rapidly destroy the
sluggishness of sleep and 2- use the muscles of the body rapidly to
get out of the bed and do something. 
  The Germanic peoples are basically conditioned by this Ray. The
Indians are also under heavy influence of this Ray. I would say that
their obsession with big nuclear missiles, their Army, and things
related to those in a country with more urgent needs are expressions
of this Ray´s energy. This is also seen in neighbouring Pakistan and
also Afghanistan. I could venture to say that there is an artifact or
something of the kind placed somewhere from north India to Afghanistan
which is responsible for the activity of the 1st Ray on Earth. There
should also be some of the same artifact somewhere in north-central
Europa or Scandinavia. What a member of the list here called 'The
women way of seeing things' could be a manifestation of this Ray.

  This Ray has as its element FIRE and its power is reflective THOUGHT
or manas.
