Death was Never Part of the Plan- 28th February 1994

DEATH results from insubordination; it never was or is part of any plan - insofar as to be that plan's undoing; particularly when prematurely effected. Nowadays the exit from this world is because of a failing; because a condition was unsatisfactory. It is never, in this regard, a happy ending, a happy departing, from the Earth-aspect; even though the spiritual worlds might well hold something of an added appeal because of this.

When one dies it has occurred because of some dysfunction. The soul is pressured to withdraw and it is not decided in its own time, based upon good reasons and happy associations, but rather, always so because of the cause for cessation.

This may appear a glib summary, but one may stop and question otherwise. For example: You are visiting a large and uncommonly beautiful residence, there are many others beside, some of whom you delight in their community. The buffet is pleasing and the conditions fulfilling. Now in the instance of death you would have cause to leave, and whatever the cause it would be a terrible one, so terrible that there was no choice in the matter. So at this beautiful residence you may have been disbarred, tossed out of a window, sent home, become aggravated by some other to the point of departing in argument.

Out of this life we die because the pain becomes too great to withstand in suffering. The physical body has become objectionable, the soul is uneasy for numerous reasons and withdraws. Or it can be also that the very plan of being here one holds, is completely interrupted by the insult of murder, accident or war. In all of these instances the man is not at peace with this physical world, but in calamity.

Returning to the residence: ideally the visitors are not moved to leave because they are caused to, by aggravation, interruption or unhappiness, but that they do so in their own time as part of the natural course. It is an entirely different form of departure indeed. So it could be with the negotiation of travailing this world into the next, that men in their own time and with full strength, realize perfectly without the pain that the vanquish of death brings.

It is good to struggle with the assertions of impending death for this reason, that the desire to remain ensures one’s forthright impulse to return. Therefore, not to be content with the partial defeat of death as it overrides every soul at present, but to hold fast in the knowledge that the spiritual realms offer up a continuum also for every project and interest we have invested our loving attention into.

Details about Christ's Working- 27th February 1994

[Some of the following remarks relate to questions arising from Robert Powell's Christian Hermetic Astrology.]

Upon the Subject of the Saturation of the Earth through to the Inner Core 

THERE is a picture of our Christ supporting a massive rock ledge, with all of his might and intent that one by one folk may issue forth from their captivity and out into freedom. That were it not for this solitary being, those souls would be still held within those dark and unloving recesses.

There are three points to be made here:

1. The souls and the beings which are transformed and thereby freed by the Christ are not as overcome, but released. There is a slight but grave distinction in perspective here. As He makes His way throughout the lower spheres He does so overcoming only those trace elements of decadent residue, of which the beings are made free of.
2. The process, if you will, takes time because Christ meets every soul and being who inhabits the realm naturally - He is before each and every one individually and completely. As you can begin to imagine this actually takes more than a considerable time; much more, and is in point of fact, largely accomplished outside of our time for the greater part. Our time period does not relate accordingly to what needs to take place and is 'doing' in those altered regions.

3. There is little said, and for good reasons, about those parts of a man which are intimately associated to him, which abide in the nether-regions of the lower spheres. Each layer in is as an actual sphere - picture spheres within spheres. The outer Earth is this too, whilst a greater one extends also out from that. However, every soul of Man has a part/portion/parcel of self actually held within each sphere, higher and lower, relative to him. This is not even taking into account those beings too, which are primarily connected with him in time, to his actions past and to the fulfilling of their future design. No, this is moreover relating to Man's earthly warranty, his 'toes' which extend into the very depths; and for Christ to save the whole Man, these 'toes', these lower limbs of Man's being, must be loosened from the mud and rock and brought up as each sphere amalgamates within another.

Upon the Subject of 33 1/3

As it was aforesaid, the time periods are not in actuality comparable. An example of this can be of a student who on the same day must attend four classes. To each class he has been committed to produce papers for which he has worked upon for weeks leading up to the submission date. One might think that as the papers were orderly brought in during the one day that this was indeed but the culmination of just one day's work.

The fact that Christ may work two sets of time simultaneously is not to be dismissed as the one. It is necessary because the 'deadlines' are significant to the progress and determination of a larger humanity; and in this instance it is as though He skips out of our time during that one day and achieves 'catch up' in between sessions.

The significance of 33 1/3 is, masonically, a Sun division. Working backwards, if the sixty minutes that comprise an hour were each given 33 1/3 increments the value of the increments would be 2,000 for that hour.

In this 'one hour', every year passed in the last nineteen plus centuries was as an increment. Every 33 1/3 years was as a minute.

It, (time) had to alter. So in this instance the 'minute' being one day of the Sun, becomes a degree-divisioning of 33 1/3. Therefore, the full day of Christ is 48,000 years, all up.

The Body Astrea

The Body Astrea is not to be confused with the astral composite-slag which impregnates physical matter. The Body Astrea is a finer light body which faithfully mirrors the cosmic aspects of starry configurations and their qualities.

The veritable map of the Zodiac, light and as incorporeal as the gossamer strands in fairy legend, this 'starry' body is our carrier into the cosmic realms, and is in the likeness of Christ whose Body Astrea is all that is the Zodiac.

Therefore, one cannot separate the synthesis of astreaic membrane from the Christ; even though He has not as yet, awakened the astral realms which adhere to the planet. Those astral spaces are timeless, and they are unruly. However the astral world which is attracted to the manifested physical world is by nature and in actuality, immature by comparison to the starry body around which a man's physical organs do gravitate.

Upon the Subject of the Etheric Life

'Life' is the driving propulsive force which needs go before all manifestive examples. Life makes the space, the cavity which will permit the ensuing manifestation to be. Not only is it as essence, but ensoulment - in the greater context - that the spark/spirit of Divinity has projected itself into the substances that enclothe actuality, enshrouding in soul.

The Etheric Life is the Physical Complex, and yet, having stipulated this, the physical matter is not necessarily bound in autoclave and with synchronicity. As yet, Christ is fully realised in perfected Etheric Matter. This is the evolutionary modicum for future substance, at present only realised in part.

Consciousness may drift into bodies, which although connected, are not 'lit' by the conscious mind/awareness hitherto. During sleep a man is not fully separated from his physical and etheric bodies and their counterparts, but his consciousness has shifted its emphasis; and his ego-self - to which the consciousness is bound- has extended itself into and out to greater perimeters of being.

The etheric mass of the World is as the physical body of Christ. As with a sleeping frame unlit by conscious activity or will to motivate the inanimate limbs, the etheric system ran with a sufficient metabolism regular and correct, awaiting the filling of form by Christ, the owner. In this sense He was here before He arrived.

The seeding of the physical matter is another 'matter' entirely - this being meant in both senses, of course. For as it has been alluded to previously, the physical world itself requires both transformation and at the same time, direct crossing into future worlds and their substance. Kinetically, Christ entered into a concentrated point of then perfected physicality, and the subsequent dispersement of that body itself seeded the region and the lands around, which in turn set about changing the makeover of the entire Globe.

The physical entrance as we know it, was as the sub-physical to Christ, whose life is the Etheric World, from which we are all sustained. His 'waking' into His body, is ever circulating and insisting itself here and there; however, as pointed to once again, every being which inhabits and comprises that light world is summoned to an audience with Christ.

The fairies have found a greater King - not as their former, being an imp or a devil or a man. Now it is that they too - and even without the gifts that Man has had bestowed upon him - may come to Christ in delight, with applause and in celebration. This will go well for Man also, for hitherto these kingdoms have been prone to impatience and hot-temperedness at the shortcomings and idiosyncrasies of the dullards who are insensitive to their parent realm.

The Sun & Moon Forces

As they say about old ghosts that hang around: "Have chain, will rattle!" In other words, give any being the wherewithal to make a whole lot of noise about itself and it most surely will!

The consciousness of our Christ pulsates into the World, being the Sun forces, which peak, flow and draw back. At each saturation the generalities are revitalised and everything is strengthened and at its best - or worst, as the case may be.

There has been a question along these lines to do with those influences as shouldered by the Moon in its relation to our world. Moon-dust is magnetically attracted to the planet, which draws it away into the seas, the clouds and the troughs of mist, and into the deposits of dew.

Moon-dust expands the physical world, for its particles are spatially intrusive. Water may be weight-measured according to this. Such dust from the old world holds properties which affect Men and their world. The reason why the full Moon activity in this respect is accentuated, is because of the action of the Sun loosening the particles that they, in larger dose are pulled in by the nets (the waters) of the Earth.

From a point of view of clairvoyance, the free particles of moon-dust promote the ways of atavistic seering, in correspondence with past passages of consciousness. The advice given however, to wear a cap on the head at such times of full Moon, is profitable to those who are ill-affected by the impressionistic modality and/or some related illnesses; and too, those who are progressively attempting a 'break' from former ways of thinking or being and wish to change.

This may mean a change within their makeover of almost anything, for the moon-dust promotes the theme-principle of repetition and enforces the law of cycles. Therefore for those who wish to effect some breakaway or change, it is to be at the time of the new Moon, and with a limited exposure to the full lantern.

Conversely, from this one can see how certain medicines may become very useful for irregularities which require a return to cyclic order - utilizing the harmonies of rhythm.

Christ & the Individual

Although it is difficult to appreciate, Christ knows everything you are (and can be) and is quite capable (for He does) of concentrating on a single man and his dilemmas and understanding them, that He may answer them.

There is not one single problem within a man that He personally has not met with on that level. Now, it is that the contestants to Man may be a different matter, inasmuch as those aliens who promote ill-health and ill-being may be foreign to Christ's comprehension. However, Christ understands from the aspect of man, rather than the aggressors who spin in, and their thinking, their ways.

He can and does take seriousness seriously. All of us know the elevated point of view where we might judge another's tribulations as so minor as to be inconsiderable, but Christ Himself is so sensitive to His children that He still suffers their suffering constantly.

Yes, He may present Himself in the form of a man; which does not mean to say that all that is Him, is then comprised and compacted in that form, but rather His totality is divisible and bipolar to need.

Does He have feelings as we have them? All heart, all sadness, all peace. Does He have His good days and bad days? The Greater Beings - the ones that stride the spheres in a brilliance of unspeakable beauty - they have been known to suffer their strifes and hardships, disappointments and contestants. They are given to romance too, for it is far, far longer than poets have scribbled sonnets that Heaven has contrived its pairings with happy satisfaction therein.

It is difficult for one to picture the variations within the one, that expressions large or small may be still one and the same.

There is no space that a man may venture into, that Christ also cannot go to, if need calls. Many, many souls have for one reason or another been met with by Christ and counselled directly. And this has occurred in all the various ways in and out of the physical-etheric bonds. However, the question as to He indwelling in us and the distinction in sleep or projection, when one withdraws, goes like this: His Signature is borne by us in our adhesion to physical and etheric matter. By His Signature so impressed, we have an open connection living within us, as we represent Him also. The Sun forces illuminate the truth all around us and within us, of this.

We are best concentrated and contained when in incarnation. When we spread out in sleep or after death and are given to soul impressions and focus, we are for the most part continuing on from that which we were, or gleaned during our physical incarnation. This is a bonding in a particular way, with Christ in His Plan.

That which we are in aspects lower (in those spheres within the Earth), and also in those separate to the physical/etheric world, is in one sense quite separate to Christ. The ego defines a distinction, for to return to loving Him Man must indeed be apart in that respect.

Once again, it shall be said though, that there is no field a lamb can stray where it cannot be found by Christ. He is never that far away. He hears prayers at any distance, for He knows each and every one, remarkably.

Rosary Beings- 20th February 1994

THERE are twice as many hands in the world as there are people; and there are five times that amount in digits upon each hand. Each finger represents a whorling cosmos of inner activity which streams from that central gateway within the constitution of each man. These gateways lead up and out into their respective realms of influence. And although the passage is individually different for every man, the source to which they are connected is one and the same. Therefore for all of those fingers, hands and men, there are but ten pools of Cosmic reference so drawn upon (in this manner).

A group of animals who attend the same watering hole may not necessarily be all of the one herd - or species for that matter. Similarly we do not need to confuse issue with men; for every man comes to divinity and its aspects uniquely and makes of them what he can and will. So the communal 'oneness' of makeover gives itself to a multiplicity of variables.

Each realm to which the influences may be traced contains its fill of beings who are so characterized by that quality. These beings are innocent of any evil design, however they may exert their qualities ruefully, inadvertently causing much upset within this world, if uncontained. They are prone to contest each other also, and this in itself is disruptive.

Now it may well feel confusing or convenient that there are beings alluded to that are like this and like that. However, it will help to keep in mind that this is a general law: one thing our Cosmos is not short of is entities! The very thought forms that swarm around your being are characterized by the nature of your thinking. Using this example alone, one can well consider how it comes to be that the more potent realms have characterized hosts of entities who are so impressed by their magnetisms and radiances; and too, that they may frequent the passages upon the planet, which do directly link also to said realms.

A man may be sensitive to the presence of such entities and persuaded thereby. It is good to remember however, that a man can and does summon the governing will at all times, and need not be fearful of being overrun by persistent beings who do naturally adhere to the likenesses perceived in the man.

At the scene of an accident or disaster, there one will find the beings of dissolution, of chaos, of disintegration. The same beings shall be at the bedside of the terminally afflicted. However, and having said that, the 'undoing' of the physical form by the resisting of the 'obedience' to wit, the natural law, is followed.

This disruption to life is also attended by the beings of spiritual containment who shall protect the soul and cradle the dying, that the separation from this life shall not be painful. For the actual severance from the body, even if it be haplessly debilitated, would be too torturous otherwise - the soul would be compelled to remain with the remains, so to speak.

The reasons for this are not simple. But it is as one can well imagine, an intensely powerful bond between soul and soul-bodies, right down to the physical frame - that which does bind is not so easily unstuck! The motivating and compelling powers to gravitate and bond remain, even throughout sickness and separation. Therefore the beings of dissolution contribute in the process of desisting from such compulsions to form, whilst the beings of containment form a protective vessel around the man, so that when the chord is finally severed the soul is encapsulated in a repose of contentment more seductive than the former life.

The beings of Our Father (as hidden) bring to Man the ability to sleep and unconsciousness also. Without these beings there would needs be a process of disincarnation in order that one was relieved of their driving down consciousness. We say relieved, because the pressure of a fully-run self-consciousness with no rest or remittance would starve the soul of dialogue, and in itself would be a disincarnating process; for the withdrawal of consciousness is necessary to the digestion which takes place during the period of sleep. With constant worldly activity the soul would be denied, and the being would be as two separate entities operating two separate levels of consciousness concurrently.

There shall come a time when man may resist the beings which induce slumber, and this can be worked upon when:

1. The etheric body is pure and capable of longer periods of being sustained without the peregrination of cosmic influences to be absorbed, as are in sleep. In other words, the individual is so developed that he is as pure in his waking hours as he is in his Father God innocence in sleep, and can bring to himself the renewing forces which enable his etheric elasticity.
2. When he may consciously achieve the withdrawal into higher spheres and practice this, giving times - though self-appointed - when rest can be achieved. For even the adept cannot indefinitely deny rest.

Once again we can examine those compelling forces - in this instance those which demand consciousness - and ask how should one resist such a strong and motivating drive otherwise. As the muscle relaxes its tension, we give over to the subtle reasoning of the beings of our Father God and follow their trails into the unknowable. They can speak softly to us - because we do know them also - of Him, that we may glimpse with a price of forgetfulness for that time we have withdrawn, forgetting completely He who we have been with.

To deny the otherwise irresistible compulsion for consciousness would cause pain and disruption to the individual. The difference may be witnessed in the unconsciousness of an epileptic during a seizure, whereby the man is given to tremors and spasms, and clearly does not experience the peacefulness that is ordinarily known in the unconsciousness of sleep. There is a drawing away on behalf of the man who soulfully chooses to take up the consciousness, and wishes prematurely to go to Father God. The beings in attendance do come as the condition calls for, after a lapse of initial agony experienced by the conflicting forces within. This is why initiates who have resulted poorly are given to these seizures.

The unconsciousness when drug-induced is once again as the desire to literally go to God; which some so effectively achieve that they of course, remain with Him, happy to withdraw into the unknowable, lifted by the beings whose greatest wonderment and satisfaction is experienced through that which is inspired and lived in the men and their expiring emanations. However this experience within this respective realm, cannot be tolerated more than briefly, and by our own inadequacy we are once again compelled to resume status somewhere within the scheme of activity.

Sexuality is the creative combining of two otherwise separate entities. By this definition one can see examples of this from the highest to the lowest, and begin to comprehend the beings associated with all creative projection pertaining to this. The principle of combining and the creative outfall therefrom, underpins all existence; which could not be if it remained as a compilation of individual units alone; but rather came to be because of the harmonious blending and the value as achieved through the then blended relationships.

However this principle and these beings are well balanced by the forces of containment, disintegration, obedience (obedience to natural law - e.g. cancer overruns because of an irregular combining), and is complemented by the forces of the Active Will/Ego, strength: sustained and active, good-naturedness, Divine Will and obedience (as in the right combining).

Good-naturedness is that harmonious aspect well qualified and well developed, that it may knowingly come to meet in such terms and do it well. This influence is one of the more sophisticated, and although a quality of fools and the faint-hearted, it is an attribute of the Gods - our Gods who care well for us. It is the beef of compassion and the soul of great pity. Gentle humor grasps the thought accurately, lovingly and with surety and is self-confident in its knowing. Mercurial these beings- by far the ones to entertain in gatherings and social endeavors. Alas, they are repelled by hot tempers and arrogance, criticisms and poisonous thought. Think well and they shall encourage you. Their gift is profound insight, concealed in a gentle wrap. The beings of congeniality are welcome everywhere.

One can begin their exercise of contemplating the forces which are respective to the fingers, by thinking of just one positive example of each influence in the ten. If this example is accurate, one will begin to actually feel a sensation in the corresponding finger (subtly) and by this may assess some measure of poignancy. Alternatively one may prefer to examine just one aspect per day and may work the Rosary with the intention going to that one finger, contemplating the value of its influence and the workings personally throughout your experience.

Footnote:
Clarification on how to do the Rosary meditation:

Firstly one might start with one quality per day. Then instead of going through the whole of one hand, start with a finger on the right and then follow with the mirror finger on the left. This is the balanced way to do it.

Wisdom Angels- 19th February 1994

BANISHED from our own territory, thwarted in using our own names that are true; cramped and restrained, tethered and teetered, fastened and restricted, we are denied and unheard.

True sophisticates (sophisticates, as in sophia) endorsed our prose and script - forfeiting neither logic nor explanation, and never to forgo the vast accompanying beauties which amassed the vested work. Our seal was our great truth, bare for all, embossed and writ, recorded with joy. Our hopes, as ever, are borne out with each great teaching tried and experienced by our young masters of the future.

Do you not realize our frustrations behind the prosaic passage, confined awkwardly to this and that parcel? If it could be so it would all be yours - and to whoever so desired too - plainly and wholesome, in alphabetical reasoning! We would, should we be able, for your sake as well as for ours, impart it whole. The men would gather in noble enterprise and commit their will to the only true cause, and all meanings would rise in each being thus incorporated and once and for all; Christ would be hailed within.

The splendid sorrowful passion that anoints the periphery of our etherealness, at those nerve-endings of the soul which are immediate to the sympathetic consciousness, that sweet-salty sorrow is won by the progressive temptations which affront the curb we negotiate along the path. The progressive temptations are the muses, the Liliths of the World, each with a sweet and slender hand, each a synthesis of art and creativity; and for every man waylaid at their curtain, he is so profoundly touched as to be addicted to her company. Thus these muses are also named as such temptations, for although their gifts profit the soul of Man, they do not on the whole sustain him. He must look to those other strengths within himself to adopt and to develop, and never lose mind of intent or the trying.

Certain elevations as experienced by the student appear short-lived, but are in fact most nourishing and remain. Each rise in spiritual thought sobers the man in his worldly comprehension. One would imagine that it is the opposite, that indeed spiritual thinking would encourage a flimsy mentality slightly weighted. However, when a higher concept is reached and connected with, the man becomes more defined within his being, not less; and subsequently he is strengthened according to his level of practice and deliberation. Furthermore, the aligning actually works repeatedly down throughout various centers of consciousness, so that he has benefited throughout by the highest conscious exacting he may try for.

This is because of the principle that all beings are rewarded for that clarity which gauges and likens to that which is - namely truth and its parent reality. The argument that says, "The universe is but a facade of my own invention and circulates around my fancy" is partly true, so far as to concede that this can happen in particular realms, spheres or planes thereof. However and in the name of accuracy, it is ever so that development is the very realization of what is outside of oneself, and the extending clear comprehension of all that it comprises- "it" being truth/reality.

The more lowly the consciousness, the more confined to central self, the less experienced, the tighter the reasoning. Advancement cannot be self-spawned either: we do not expand upon ourselves like the multiplying cell theory. (The cells are individual, even they do not multiply themselves.)

When we seek to know, to really know - as some men have not come to that yet and deny consciousness, deny truth and deny their real self repeatedly - when we seek to know we are urged and prompted exterially to observe in new ways that will assist our consideration. These ways may vary from individual to individual, in that there are physical qualities that greet the eye as never before. Perhaps that the otherwise empty words which drift in have imparted a meaning for that day, that the significance, the real significance of the men and women you meet with begins to concur with your curiosity and prompt you to examine greater differences.

You are not without assistance. For those who are awake and calling, they shall have such an Angel to accompany them thereafter. For the birth into active knowledge brings all manner of diverse and obscure realities (not all are desirable for the novitiate to attempt). In plainer terms also, the assigned may speak to the man through promptings and whisperings at significant times, so that the individual will see a sign as an affirmation to his knowledge at the time, when it is moreover his Angel calling his attention to it specifically.

This is a way of communicating with him. In other words, one may view a certain formation in the clouds at exactly the right moment and it will be because their attention has been urged to go to that spot in the sky; not so much that the Angel has rolled the mists into a personalized design, but that the aspect of the moment has been realized and becomes significant.

Another example is a favorite tune being played which is overfull with associated meaning. This might be heard unexpectedly but at a time when some affirmation as to the correctness of one's thinking is called for, and the attention is brought to the source so as to hear it. For the Angel has only signs and symbols to work with and also is quite a keen interpreter of those around the man, which are his own intimations of being. For there are many pockets of knowledge and each man selects that which holds the greatest attraction. His Angel may see this and is duty-bound, as it were, to fully assist him in the coming closer to fusing aspiration with discovery and fulfilling comprehension.

There are a multitude of differing Angelic beings - the complexities are astounding - but the ones which we speak of today are the Wisdom bearers who attend the developing aspirants, who have won such an assistance by their efforts to Love. We may begin to measure our true knowledge by exactly that: by how much we love that which we presume to know. Of course the wisdom-beings can recognize this cognition immediately and are drawn to the man who begins to interact with his world in these flickerings of real consciousness. To some the word 'love' implies that one overlooks - viz. "love is blind." We refute this, hatred is blind but not so love. Perhaps that is one of its greater significances.

Of course we have often maintained that an excellent lead-in is to become fully involved in some activity or pursuit in which you lovingly rejoice. From all points of view this is obviously sound advice, and when it may be coupled also with the yearnings to love more and to know more and to become more, to experience more, to give in participation more and to appreciate more, then the radiance born from that joy shall be as a beacon to a Wisdom-Angel in waiting, who shall equally delight in your findings and encourage each step further along that way to becoming more.
