Some Quotations from Theosophical sources that might be of
interest:

The one fundamental law of Occult Science is:  "the radical unity
of the ultimate essence of each constituent part of compounds in
Nature-from Star to mineral Atom, from the highest Dhyan Chohan
to the smallest infusoria.  And this is to be applied
spiritually, intellectually, and physically."  SD I 120
[ also see W. Q. Judge.  Judge Articles  Vol. I p. 103 -
REINCARNATION IN ANIMALS ]

"Practical Occultism,...is but the lowest form of applied
Metaphysics...an occultist...must nit separate either himself or
anything else from the rest of creation or non-creation...the
moment he distinguishes himself from even a vessel of dishonor,
he will not be able to join himself to a vessel of honor.  He
must think of himself as an infinitesimal something, not even as
an individual atom, but as part of the world-atoms as a
whole...Everything from spirit to the tiniest particle, is a part
of the Whole, at best a link.  Break a single link and all passes
into annihilation;  but this is impossible."  HPB  TRANSACTIONS
OF THE BLAVATSKY LODGE p. 138

"...man is a perfect animal, the vehicle of a fully developed
MONAD, self-conscious, and deliberately following its own line of
progress..."	HPB	TRANSACTIONS p. 14

"Maya is the perceptive faculty of every Ego which considers
itself a Unit separate from, and independent of the One infinite
and eternal SAT, or "Be-ness."...not only we ourselves, but the
whole visible and invisible universe, are only a temporary part
of the one beginningless and endless WHOLE, or that which ever
was, is, and will be."  	HPB	Transactions, p. 31-2

"Every living creature, of whatever description, was, is, or will
become a human being in one or another Manvantara."	HPB
TRANSACTIONS, p. 23

:Only the homogeneous, the absolutely purified, unalloyed Spirit,
can be re-united to the Deity, or "go to Brahma."	HPB
TRANSACTIONS, p. 139
