Spirits of Motion

The Spirits of Motion, also called Dynamis (Greek: δύναμις) or Dynameis, Virtutes (Latin "virtues") or Powers or, according to Indian Theosophical terminology, Mahat, were the actual masters of the ancient lunar evolution, during which they gave man his astral body. However, they had already been involved in the development of the human bodies and in the evolution of our planetary system since the Old Saturn. Today their dominion extends to the Mars sphere; they are the leading Mars beings. In Indian Theosophical terminology, the sum of the Spirits of Motion in their common work is called Mula-Prakriti (Lit.:GA 121, p. 139f).
