Wand or Feather?- 15th March 1992

THERE is no way of proving our credentials, of who we are, because it would be based upon our say-so. Some are never satisfied, whilst many are too easily satisfied when entering into such relations. Of course the question is relevant. However one can ask: what are the credentials of those who throw doubt upon the matter? 

The 'Space-people' intercourses are not dissimilar to the spiritualism of last century. To many they are one and the same. The figures are equally as fanciful. One can 'pluck' from the astral many an obliging speaker who undoubtedly, will for the most part garble on. At the moment one is working on the basis of assumption that these 'Space-people' are talking entities who convey meaning from very distant realms; that they have just 'flown in'.

Many will tell you (or precisely the mediums) exactly what you want to hear - if this was not the case the mediums would not oblige. They never seem to offend anyone, do they? Some mediums still continue on in the old school, with old names of exalted saints and teachers. Others continue with Indians and (ho, ho, ho) pirates, etc.; others make claim of 'Venusians' et al.. Whilst also, those few idiots who should call upon devils are satisfied also, with slime and incantation. All of them are obliged - but what precisely is their contact? The quality of their teaching, or more accurately the information, will speak for themselves.

Yes it is true that the 'Devas' relish the opportunity to communicate, and yes they may be equally obliging. It is no small matter however, to be privy to interpret 'language' and converse with a being who projects from outside the system. One would have to enter in so close as to actually be here, and have been here for a very long while. You see, if they do not know what it is that they say they know - if indeed there is little evidence of the science and advancement proclaimed - then one must question that they are who they say they are, or more to the point, that their contact and experience is much older than suspected.

If it were the case that our world was so ethereal as to welcome all manner of beings to the doorstep, and indeed shower their influence to degrees that is assumed, then surely we would have been overrun a long long time ago. One can imagine what next century shall bring - most likely the Tree-spirits and Animal-gods etc.! 

In the centuries prior to this one, there was no talk of space vehicles and the like. It is true to say that men would have lacked the accompanying concepts, but nonetheless, were this occurring at all the information would have brought about its impact. But this was not the expression at all. For the main part, we have deceased entities or deceased shells of men who shall speak of foreign planets and missions to Earth. 

Certainly in trance a medium cannot accept into themselves anything but a lower entity; for a higher consciousness could not endure the association, nor would be attracted to try. It is an impossibility. One may frequent the houses for the mentally insane and mentally disabled, and strike much of the same communication which issues willingly from these mediums. The messages of words spoken are simply not put to use by Angelic influence (not in the way described), as their activity is paramount upon the manifestation within the world - what use would be a few garbled words? One can only endeavor to ask them a sensible question and hope for a sensible reply.

The world of men is much more complicated than most imagine. If one has not the business of becoming directly involved, then they are not aware of the capabilities that advanced souls, and not-so advanced souls have entered into. In some ways they can be as glorious or as hideous as any Spaceman concept, in what they can actually effect. But usually the politics is bound to this globe; and busy enough as it is, with such.

The Devas inhabit a world which, one might say, has been separated off from this our world - and yet is one and the same. The etheric realms of golden light are vivid and bright, and by contrast most pleasurable for these individuals. Their perception cannot often make the connection which takes them into the shadows of this world. They would keep to themselves for the most part, and as with all beings they have representatives of their very wise, to their very infant. In legend, they are awaiting a soul of their own and are somewhat disturbed by talk about this. For in truth they have their individuality and ways, and have been with this world e’er since it began. They are in essence the plant kingdom personified.

As men we are continually exerting and exhibiting influences which stream from other planets. So much so that an individual has within him: a Mars man, a Jupiter man and so forth, who with particular characteristics thus imparted from those regions, does work with them accordingly. And some characteristics may definitely dominate others. One aspect so received and featured, will make for a consciousness upon approach into that realm: in conditions of sleep, in conditions after death. And it will be to a particular globe of that planet to which they will go. There are many globes which run concurrently aside from those which are to be. 

None of this is frightening to Man as home is where the heart is! But interpretations of such peregrinations are difficult, if not almost impossible for most to recall or to imagine. Equally so, the fact that this larger home sphere is teeming with beings is incomprehensible. Those who adhere to the Space-people theory often are ignorant of the sheer enormity and diversity of population. This must speak to us therefore, of a limited capacity of comprehension if not experience.

The knack is in trying to develop a consciousness that is self-conscious in the present with present concerns. For surely this is one's first concern. To make effort to expand oneself out from the conscious limits, is in this time a strain and a stress and a contradiction to where one sits at the moment. All things and all places have their appropriate times. Whilst the imagination can soar and 'take off' into realms far less tangible, it is best to exert clear and concise consciousness at best, as is possible, for this will assist one in later efforts in future realms.

Each to his domain! Everything starts from the point of where you are. You may look to yourself, to another, to your little room and what actually is in there, to your garden and to your world. All of these things comprise (right here and now), keys into the realms that extend outer and inner and beyond. One can come to an inherent understanding of the nature of these living qualities through the mysterious which is before you in the very present. To come to observe and know of life intimately- and this is not impossible, right from the position you hold in the room you are in, in the present. 

Now were that you were enabled to experience a little of such perception, there would be no need for a spaceship in order for you to achieve this. Grand Maya! The spaceship enterprise (pun!) is quite contrary and immature to spiritual theory and practice. The ways in which a multitude of beings inflame their influence in man is not as blatant nor as primitive, nor as naïve as the concepts that purport this.

Some Devas are suggestible to Man's bidding. Some are aloof and keep best away, but some are all too easily influenced by the concepts of men as regards themselves. And liberties may be taken on both sides. Even though their experience and wisdom may be as long as their years alongside man, and even though they may present (some of them) as very aged, they are in fact very much the children, who are as children held back. They never quite made the connections, even though they are kith and kindred to humanity. They suffer the ills of humanity, but do not partake directly. 

Their memory may span the ages, as they are not incarnate within the physical realm directly, but they are impassioned by men and imprinted so. They may be corrupted or encouraged or exalted, or dismissed. They who were at the crossroads, who could not make the bridge into humanity but run alongside, are concurrently in many forms and consciousnesses. 

There are many who are far from dull-witted and stupid. There are some who would enter into the realms of men and oblige; whilst others are contemptuous and ill mannered (having gleaned this from men also). In a way, there's perhaps more of a freedom within the realm, and yet also a time and space which is undecided. Depending upon their characters - their personal natures - one will find anything from 'Tinkerbell' flower-hat fairies to veritable demons: those of the earth with bearded consideration, those of the air realms, the water, the Angelic.

Of those who are fixed and more mature, we have many who are quite capable of approaching men and conversing at will. Some may be subservient, whilst others have outreached the general capacity of a man's comprehension. Some are very confused. All have a pretty poor self-image. They are the original 'Green Movement'. Some are understandably 'testy' about these pressing concerns. They must find means of being understood and have been long dissatisfied with their neighbor's habits and inconsiderate interference. 

Added to this, they are rendered almost powerless unless invited to contribute in that which affects the world of men. Some are doting and very impressionable (some, meaning literally millions). They are colorful indeed.

Much inspiration may come from their directives. However as with much within the world, they are as many and varied by nature and attribute, and it does not pay well to generalize. They are also very easily offended. In point of fact one must never be as discourteous as to be haughty about one's position in relation to these beings, nor to be 'pushed around' or 'played with' (depending upon who it is that you encounter) but be respectfully aware with neither fixation or judgment.

Added to all of this there are men, who by varying degrees have excelled and advanced during their lifetimes and have left a legacy of such work as has been done. This legacy is verily the impressions of their efforts under the particular influences from which they worked from. Such a contribution - distinctive in any field - remains within the hemisphere of our Globe as reference and inspiration to others who, in their lifetimes may be so attracted to draw from.

Also it may be comparative work which necessarily does not adhere exactly, but with like intent. In other words, a great mathematician who has departed this world shall leave a residue of his efforts of calculus and inquiry, coupled with his love of that field of endeavour. But later on: one year or two hundred - a similar soul who holds a passion for music may well draw upon the old mathematicians mastery of logic and be thus inspired. He may even be so alike, that the old mathematician will present himself in dreams! However, these visitations will be part of the impressions thus left and signatory to these, rather than actually calling into being that particular soul.

If however, there had been a man-to-man and soul-to-soul contact established within the one lifetime (another perhaps or the present one) and a signatory relationship was thus so formed, then on the other hand, a link and a connection with the true soul may be made - depending on exactly where he was at the time, and how intent or like-minded the 'seeking-out' was. But actually it would lend itself to higher encouragements rather than the particulars of the impressions. In this way it may be easier to talk detail with a 'ghost' from the past than a ghost which is ensouled. For as stated - quite correctly - there comes a time when the individual is past the realms of common speech and cannot intimate word for word in common language.

Added to this we have earthbound souls, who for many reasons - grisly, sad and desperate - moan and groan and hover around the material world; as if to say that they have left the best part of them there. Eventually they too pass on and impressions of these are discarded also, cleaving to the world in odour and sickness. Souls who are somewhat disassociated from the 'spiritual' life and in much turmoil, do also wreak their effect upon the general locality.

Further on, there are men in the world, who have advanced to a degree which does lead them into realms of semi-isolation from the bulk of humanity. These souls are individuals, who by concentrated effort and experience, have greater memory than most and are content to remain within the world sphere and carry on much learning and adapting to the present crisis. Many hold dear affection for 'up and coming souls' and because of past experience, know only too well of both the problems and the strife, and the happinesses that beset all men.

The physicality of the Elder Brothers is indeed an interesting point, for suffice to say, it is altered, and so is not actually according to what most would compare to the general man's condition of being. For there comes a time when great changes ensue and the physical body is transformed in compliance with the renewal and renewing of one's subtle bodies and must also be adaptable that it may withstand certain procedures that ordinary men could not endure.

This is personal to say the least, but we respect people’s eagerness for such knowledge. For it is also the way of the future! Also, we might add that there needs be links, living links with future design, afore the bulk may take to such design. What lies ahead for mankind is manifest in those already who have made further destination, and so the point of physiology is interesting.

Extractions of food and assimilation of such is not required and would indeed be a hindrance if taken in similar manner. The organ, the bowel, is quite transformed as to be almost nonexistent as it is now known. Some babies today are born as such and cannot adapt to this process, and sadly do die - however already, the forms begin.

But nonetheless, we are men. We may command more and are guarded as to what we tell, for it cannot be anything but sensational to do so. However we are not discarnate entities, even though our abilities encompass those that occur 'outside of the body'. We should not be traced to our fingerprints visibly, we have none - but they are there!

We have many friends and co-workers. We have many degrees and representatives. We have but one common goal. We are fearless but apprehensive. We have been known to take tea and beverages. We all need our quiet times! We are not many in number, but represent a great number. Our numbers are guarded, as are our true names. We do not encourage fetishes and exaggerated devotion. We are isolated not so much for our sake, but for the sake of others.

We have no intention of forsaking our humanity. Our commitment is longstanding, and if there is any pride to be had it is in this our fellowship. Our responsibilities are many and we are never in want of 'finding something to do'. We are answerable to many Teachers in the world. We are at all times answerable for everything which we may effect within the world. We are not 'beyond' the Law, nor are we keepers of the Law.

At times, we too are lonely for good company - which is not to say that there are not many, many, connections in spirit, soul to soul, that are forever with us. But that loneliness is precisely what motivates one to work further to assist in the nurture of a growing humanity. Who is it that says “It's lonely at the top!” Only joking. We have our Teachers. It must always be that way. We have those we aspire to, who love us, whom we are grateful for.

We do not have wings, but are as swift as would be if we were endowed. We are blessed and do bless. We are privy to visions past and visions greater. We may concentrate and fix our sight according to pertinent directions. For this one must exact. We take rest. We are not indivisible like some. We regard all our friendships with importance and many span lifetimes- even those that folk do not recall themselves.

We weep and we rejoice. We suffer pain, not physical pain for this we may be released from and disassociate from. However, we may still feel inflictions quite similar.

Usually, when we meet with folk, it is not until after the meeting (if at all) that they begin to wonder. We are formally informal. We have various 'codes' to which we adhere and do not go around pleasing ourselves or others on a whim. It becomes injurious- if nothing more, fanatical! But when the time is right it is only courteous to make ourselves known and this will be so. 

The usual question we are asked is: "If all of this is so, then why not world domination?" You know, this has been tried in the past! It is interesting for there is something of a shield surrounding our influence which prohibits and deflects, and our very nature is non-impact- quite a paradox. We should be stepping outside of what we have become if we were to try and exert such influence within the world as to capture the minds of men and thus direct their affairs. It is not that we function as disassociated from life, but rather that the nature of the binding, the associating, is transformed as to go with, rather than against.

When one waves a wand in the air the waves repel and make for great clanging. We do not clang. We become as great and as insignificant as a feather on the air. We command what we do, but are careful not to negate what we are by the doing. Intervention therefore, is most weighty and guarded. Angels do not make very good boxers. (We do not claim to be Angels, but you get the point.)

Our strongest influence as regards the world is, alike to others, in living an exemplary life and employing our talents in the assistance of others when called upon to do so. Anything outside of this may come into debates of our own, but essentially we too have many limitations. But we are and have to be, at peace with them.

Never let one's concern with those things (or beings) outside of your experience distract you from the true path of finding and realizing inner wisdom. It is good to inquire and be mindful, and thus be equipped, but not to focus intent into unseen realms before they are revealed to you; for the tests will be many enough as it is. The serious student shall be amused enough and yet challenged enough, and the journey into higher thought will bring much enrichment; bringing its own insights stimulating higher perceptions. But that we are guarded, to attend always to the matters at hand and not shirk our duties and first considerations; and in this our development will take care of itself - and in this in time, much will be revealed. Remembering also that it is a good heart which holds the mirror to Heaven, and a defiled heart reflects back much of the murk that has so stained the pure image. This is the focus. This is the key to this and many of the realities of being.

Embrace with Joy- 1992

EMBRACING with joy, rather than assuming a studious painful grimace - it is important to strike the balance between being the happy idiot, and acting out that which one is not. Improvement is always certain, and there is never anticipation of lasting overnight successes.

Be content to absorb and struggle, yes wrestle, with all that is learnt; and forgiving of that which you are now. For all men have worked long and hard to come to this path, including you, and one must never discredit or demean that wonderful effort that is forever concluding and renewing in the eternal now.

Locomotion- Worldly & Family Souls- 14th March 1992

IN order to propel or propound, there needs be a condition so receiving, as to enable a forced entry before propulsion ensues. Something which may not be empowered to go forward in one instance, one set of conditions, may be enabled and encouraged in other times under other circumstances. There is always a rhythm of rest, of gathering in, circumspect to expulsion. No one thing is 'full on' even when conditions are auspicious. Therefore it is wise to observe this law in all things, especially as far as the promulgation of the teachings is concerned.

Motivation is essential as the essential drive to any advancement. Motivation begins within the man and streams forth through productivity: the realization of such initial motivation. Men are faint because their motivation is weak, and so loosely divided between the passions within the immediate realm and the trials and the testings which ensue, once begun; for we are answered immediately when we become active within such motivation.

This does help one to gauge precisely our intent to pursue whatever line of interest has caught our interest, that we may come to know instantly something of the future produce and our ability to grapple with the proceeds. In this there may be many a 'warning' or to some an encouragement - if indeed they continue and carry on. 

But vitality is not inexhaustible, as far as the man who is not practiced in the very necessary balance of expenditure and receiving of such, goes. We may distribute only so much, and may lend our efforts to certain concentrates or larger mass, however all activity to which a man conspires is accountable; to that man the magnitude is to be dealt with by him and no other. Therefore limitations may in fact be a respite from an otherwise busy future, tending only to extenuating results - that the consequences be so binding that they are ineffably waylaying. 

There have been men within the world who have mastered such will and motivation as to affect almost, the circumference of the Globe. Certainly within their lifetime their outstanding achievements have radiated out, far past the ordinary perimeters of action, vitality and ensuing consequence. To these there are much larger burdens so determined, as their actions have extended past the souls within their immediate experience, but held effect upon countless others whom they have not known. Of course, this too may span the future generations, and so their destiny of public life is ever more complicated.

So in this we may examine two types of men and women: The first category are those whose radius of activity lends itself primarily to the immediate. Their concerns, their occupation, their affections, hold a low profile, so to speak, and they are very much content with their interactions being relatively insignificant historically, publicly and effectually. This is not to say that the soul is insignificant, but rather to comment on their field and realm of activity within a lifetime. However it can be said that for this category, they will affect those who they live and dwell amongst (ancestors also). They shall be very much a part of family life and so forth, but hold little ambition to make changes upon the larger world. They are little concerned with the larger world until such a time as they are persuaded within their immediate realm to take notice of what actually will affect them. They have not the motivation in this regard and are impotent outside of their domain. They find no inspiration in fostering unknown companions. This has no bearing on their moral conduct or the way in which their development ensues, for these men or women may be angelic or inhuman - it is rather, pure comment on worldly activity and motivation therein.

The second category stands with the men of larger vision. These folk tend to represent as 'old souls' who have come the way of the first and begun to be moved with twinge and insight, as to those expanses which lie outside of their immediate experience. They begin to form opinions, they begin to search and scan and are somewhat separated in consciousness - holding both the daily perspective and the worldly inquiry. These souls may be overly ambitious and fall into particular ills because of immaturity; for it is true to say that there are few men who can comprehensively understand the larger world. However, it is within them to try. 

Once a soul has crossed the bridge into the larger world perspective, he has begun to form particular motivations which will of themselves lead further outwards. He may be a traveler, he may be an entrepreneur, he may be a dictator, he may seek domination, he may be a philanthropist, he may actually be (believe it or not) an ascetic. He may be a doctor, a holy man or a card-shark, whatever his interest, he shall have an outgoing interest and motivation in affecting the larger world. And depending upon his own character, it may be with selfish fulfillment desired or actual sympathetic love that colors such activity.

So we have two distinctly different types of men: those who shall hold to local concerns for a lifetime, with a limited capacity and a limited projection, and those who enter into the public domain and attempt to effect greater change.

The first category may well be interested in self-betterment and work as true as any worker might. They are steady and commendable, and shall find proof of their enterprises more easily distinguishable than those of the second. Those of the second have the possibility for effecting both wonderful causes and consequences; and equally making mistakes in such larger ways as to be quite dangerous to the world and to themselves. It is not so much the quality of emanation but the proficiency.

May we call them the family-souls and the worldly-souls. The worldly-souls, once become as such, rarely if ever return solely to the field of activity of those the family-souls. The reason for this being, that because their effectualness has been extended out to such a large number of men at one time or another, they are thereafter bound by many responsibilities and connections, which will ever lead them back out into the world, and will not be denied once the safeness of the limited activity of the family-soul has been forgone. Relatively, one may refer to it as 'safeness', as it shall be in such a way that taxes and returns as little as one has personally detailed; whilst of course, this in itself shall be complex and of good learning.

What is good for these two distinctions may also be applied to nations and races of men. There are certainly the two categories here, and yet as in the instance of men, it is the worldly-soul who shall carry humanity into the future, as it is his task prescribed by the efforts and motivation within the larger world. 

If one is trying to ascertain the inclinations of a man before them, then it may be helpful to come to realize these two distinctions, for the two are extraordinarily different. They shall have differing needs and differing perspectives, and differing applications. It must also lead one to question thus: "If I consider myself to be as a worldly-soul and sympathize with such, how far am I correct in trying to persuade a family-soul to leave his level of activity, and how far am I morally correct to endeavor to make changes on his behalf?"

In answer to the first question it can be said that usually, one is one or the other from birth onwards, and one may not inspire the other to alter their field of activity, for both will do what they can. 

In answer to the second question, it must be recognized by all those who are now considering worldly activity in any respect or region, that their responsibilities are now so magnified that they must necessarily strive to work from the purest of motivations, lest they wreak havoc on this plastic world. Already one is equipped and empowered by the power of ten, when worldly active. Their experience and digestion thereof, shall be refracted and interpreted by every face whose life they touch and change. Whether it be through the building of a new motorcar or effecting a stronger plastic; whether it be through the propagation of certain thought- be it politics, be it humor, be it high doctrine, be it science.

For those who enter, seeking to take unto themselves, they are so mistaken as to presume that the benefits of such activity outweigh the demands which will follow. If one has not their heart in their activity, then they shall truly falter in the future when their deeds come back to greet them! Know that every deed committed, every activity effected by you, shall be accountable to you, and will require much work for such rectification. Therefore we must question our worldly activity - whether the faces be hidden from view or not - for each and every one will stand before you, either with gladness or with demanding right.

In this one can see how a single soul cannot accumulate much powerful magnitude and hold it to himself, if it be that he works counter to humanity. Ordinarily he would become all the more adept in his effectualness within realms of emanating influence, however if he works in discord and with disruptive forces that bring ill upon large numbers, then he is so obliged to 'make good' all that he has done, as to keep him occupied with all energies thus expended for many a lifetime indeed.

Thus it is that the ambitious will thwart themselves if their interest and motivation is so self-oriented as to judge their activities unwisely. But if on the other hand there is much good for the world, frequented with loving intent, then the weight of their deeds shall also be made known to them with more paths revealed. Both shall be given opportunities for right and proper action and both shall be challenged with circumstances that, if entered into, are disharmonious and destructive. So we must work upon discrimination and never be negligent upon self-review.

It is not enough to identify oneself as a worldly-soul, for in reality this alone does speak to us of a markedly tougher path ahead. But also, be courageous, and also understand another's reluctance to go forth into the world similarly. For if there is one before you who lacks the motivation and is indeed a family-soul, then it is imperative that they gain the strength of true and proper discernment first, before attempting to persuade and fashion the world.

It is to the worldly-souls that we are compelled to speak with firstly, for theirs is the greatest need. Whatever is affected in greater capacity by them, is most desperate and desiring of adhering to conduct which can respond with productive relay. 

All 'active' souls are needed for the work. The testing-ground is the field of our endeavors. A man may not excuse away the fallout from that which he compels the world to do. If there is one-tenth 'bad' associated with his nine-tenths 'good', and he is knowing of such, he must immediately seek to attend to the one-tenth which will otherwise defile all that he works for in toto. The means do not justify the end for they maketh the end.

The future will be built by the thoughts and deeds of worldly-active souls, who with vision, desire and motivation, bring into being the future world.

So many good men are lost to misguided pursuits and are bound by consequences, which when answered, are good in themselves, however are nonetheless waylaying when calculated against the accelerated efforts that might have been managed. One might question, "But how can I do wholly good? The business I am in requires certain sins against humanity, as consequence I know that some of my dealings or investments, are as others, not pure. But surely that is part of life: the good and the bad." However, if one truly wishes to partake in a holy life with holy attitude, and work for the entire betterment of fellow friend and brother, they will come to find that they shall be inhibited and stripped of their worthiness by partaking in said common evils. It will disadvantage all in the long run and is nowhere near commensurate in such compromising.

Better not to enter the worldly arena at all if it be that we are to accept that compromising. Laws will not be compromised. The faces of those who have been harmed and cheated will not be compromised. If we know that our efforts contribute to war arms, if we know that our monies lend to a fraction of evil command, then better that we face it now than later- one cannot begin to teach responsibility with an honest face, however hopeful. Every word is to be weighed. 

The public face begins to persuade the family-soul - directly or indirectly - and the conduct must necessarily be so upstanding and righteous as to protect both. A greater future shall be realized and it will be through the efforts of those worldly-souls made manifest: of perpetual lawfulness, of perpetuating the creative force that mirrors Divine and splendid standards.

The Mystery of the Madonna- 8th March 1992

How be it, that the countenance glum,
from whence it is, that the Sun shines from?

AS instructed, it is for all men to become perfect in the receiving and the giving of those Cosmic forces, that they may: withstand all life, impart all life and be as pure receptacles for such rays of Divine Impulse; that man himself does give and receive qualities which will one day flow through him out into Creation, making yet manifest, marvelous enterprise - to be regulated, to be capable, to be as pure as to not deflect or hazard the Heavenly forces, so characterized. To be qualified to receive, by this our imparting made perfect; to be true to design and incorruptible; to be with strength from the inside out; to be immutable and one and the same with God.

Because we are not as yet so perfect that we may breathe in the Heavenly aspirations and breathe out such pure substance, because of this, we have One who is before the gateway post of humanity who does surrender His Holy capacity for such, lest mankind be blown away by Cosmic wind or icy draught.

One can well imagine such immeasurable effort and consideration, with concentration unerring, with dedication unmovable, with true love unforsaken, in this as conductor of all mainstream force and discharge.

There shall be no time for rest and recreation, no time to smile until such Sentinel be relieved.

Our dear Christ suffers no less than He did at the time of execution. He may well 'dance around the world', but the Resurrection so referred to, did not for Him, relieve Him of His duty, His suffering, His surrendering, but rather made statement thereof. By no means is this the time for Humanity to go frolicking and believe ever falsely that the pain has ceased or the work been completed. 

All life is a gift which we accept graciously or ungraciously. Some would believe that all that comes to them is theirs to have; that there is 'divine right' with names on tags, and that it is 'just' for such ennobled creatures to be bestowed over and over again. For those who would take unto themselves and give nothing in return, they shall be soon vanquished and spent, for there is one Law of provision, one Law they shall come to know.

If it were true that the sins of the world could be negated so simply - and let us suppose for one minute that this was the case - then where, we might ask, is the evidence? They are ever perpetuated. It is true moreover, that mankind would long ago have been swept away by tides too strong to comprehend and manage if it were not for the One who submits Himself to taking to Himself every scrap and impact, that we as yet, cannot.

How long the enduring? Are we to walk away and be well satisfied saying "Lo! The job has been done, see! I shall have no part in it! I shall spend my time taking glory to myself. If my brother suffers, it surely is his fault! For I am accomplished, I have been saved!" This is surely the greatest vanity to presume so much.

If there be any aspect of Christ within us, then it becomes our duty to begin to alleviate His burden; no matter how little we contribute, we must be forthcoming. It is certainly a question of becoming open to this; and not in word so much as in: heart, mind and deed. Not in speculation, but by a living revivification of this truth, which compels correct assessment with equal reply. Pity the small, pity the grand, the weak and the strong; and bring charity into your perspective at the very least.

Our Savior is much preoccupied. He may split into as many divisions as there are souls who need; and souls there are, for truly He becomes as them in order that he might save them accordingly. He does not, however, split words with common conversation. And although empowered to withstand such effort, effort it is, nonetheless; for as said, He will not be content until the last of His flock is gathered in- thankfully.

There are men who too easily would forsake mankind. They believe themselves to be true to themselves, and yet even in this they err. We do but refract our humanity. We cannot divorce our divinity. We can however, make choice to waste literally eons unto eternity in combat with unseen foe.

One may only surpass one’s limitations by encompassing those limitations and making a complete passage into the next: a series which affronts the very horizons of eternity. For now the circuit is closed. For now we are relieved of much that is not within our powers of control to withstand. We may be permeated by much, but what use if those powers were to break a man apart?

We need Christ and all of His labors, and He needs us to acknowledge this much. Seizing actuality need not be depressing. To the contrary, we may draw complete inspiration from this. For surely it would be difficult without such sacrifice given, for us to wish to offer the same.

The job at hand concerns us with our own humanity. This also needs be the case. If we were equipped to take leave of our system and our mainstream evolution, then we are doubly equipped to take on work right here at home.

A compassionate man does not plea distaste or disgust. Any system other than this will slough off those foreign to it; just as we may do the same. The souls who wish to immigrate to foreign realms, may of course hold passport for visitation, but not for an indefinite stay. 

The babe in the womb cannot take nourishment without, and similarly all cords of ours lead to Christ. In reality it was Christ who bore Mary, as with all of us. The mystery of the Madonna is such, that she is quite separate to Mary Mother of Jesus. For the Holy Madonna is His Being also: one of the same, but not of the same. The Christ Child is verily Mankind in infancy. Our aspect of containment and protection is His Face of she: the Holy Mother. He the Creator, is manifest in dual notation.

He too, is compelled to make good what He has done. Within the continuum of time all things may come together. What was, and that which is to be, may manifest concurrently. 

The two Aspects of Christ are not in contradiction to the One who is Perfect in Both. Without such polarity there would be complete unraveling.

One may create and create, ad infinitum, but there should be no fruition of offspring: continual spawning, with souls shafted and discarded - much alike to the early Church Fathers' point of view. But each soul is regarded and so worked upon; and not left in place of those newly 'coming up'. In point of fact, there have been no 'new' souls since the beginning of time (albeit, in Cosmic terms that was not that long ago). 

Those who refute the law of re-embodiment and necessary reincarnation upon the logic which speaks of 'overpopulation', would do well to reflect what the consequences would be if 'new souls' were so easily called into being, endlessly without rest. There has to be an end somewhere. The gates of Heaven would surely be clogged - unless of course, they adhere to either negation of such souls, or circulation of such souls. Whilst it is exact to speak of circulation, it is circulation (as in circular return), rather than Eternal 'shove'.

We are taught that everything has its limit, within its limits. One may certainly go beyond limits, but this will not change the limits of those one has gone beyond- they shall still be limits. If we are to in any way make changes as to limits, they will still be limits defined which we seek to change. The concept of infinity can be confusing to say the least. If we suggest that at this point in time, there is a limit as to what the soul can and cannot do, and a limit to the number of souls doing this, then there may be argument as to the size and nature of the limitless. Possibility is limitless but actuality is limited; certainly, in relation to time.

Without definition, all would be as one great sea of nothing - or everything, if you prefer. It cannot be considered both ways- if it is attempted, it will become extremely confusing. In point of fact, one cannot arrive at the concept of infinity or eternity by reason. One negates the other. So we are compelled to review and observe that which we know and recognize, within defined limits.

Is Christ an Individuality? Some would speak of an 'Impulse' alone or a 'Force', or a condition and so forth. He is more of an Individuality than we are as yet - by the bye - individual-duality.

There are systems who are not as fortunate as ours, whose Master, though qualified, has not His qualities. Sometimes we do wonder if the furthest emanations occasionally spill down and infill some of the men of humanity and inspire them so. These Masters may be equally as mighty and as capable, but are stern taskmasters who do not necessarily transmute the powers of giving to any degree mentionable.

It certainly is a big world out there. And so we must be grateful, grateful to: our beloved Christ, the Heavenly Host who answer His beckon, and to the Father God whose radiance permits. Our personal Savior shall be reckoned at the time when we best emulate He, who surely bears the burdens of the world with grand expectation.
