A mathematical expression for the same was worked out in my thesis (Functorial Signal Representation in 2018) as shown below with one of the several examples as  As Master Djwal Khul says in one of the Bailey volumes -  " It is only the activity of the intuition which will enable you to understand and move forward into the new impulsive causal area. it will steadily tend to facilitate their entry into the world of causes and their emergence from the world of effects." What he means that when intuition is functioning one arrives at the inner cause from the outer form or effect. This law is very intimately connected with various other laws of human evolution such as Law of Rebirth, The Law of Fixation,  When contempl
