The Communicative- 28th February 1999

Question:

Dear Brothers,
In reference to your thrice emphasized Definitive Decision, formally stated, to "wholeheartedly and unreservedly receive Christ and hence the whole world into our beings, and dedicate our lives back to Father God by acknowledging that it is His life in us - firstly".

Most Christians would say that they have made and perhaps remade these decisions many times and in various forms, i.e. going forward at the call of an evangelist, giving our worldly goods to the poor, receiving Holy Communion etc. etc.

And yet dear teachers your point is needed. Many of these very dedicated churchmen who would say that they have made all of the above decisions and even say that they believe that they have made all possible decisions on this subject (mea culpa). If someone were to ask them 'How aware are you of the indwelling Christ, and is it Father God that lives in you firstly?' they would be left speechless and feeling inadequate.

Is it possible therefore that you are hinting at a decision making process, ritual or formality which is entirely new and which if followed leads us into a closer and conscious union with Father God and Christ, prerequisite for the stormy waters foretold in the same teaching.

Secondly, may I come back to 'integration' as a function of consciousness and place it against the background of the prevalence of distractedness and a lack-of-fulfillment of expectations during the Christian Communion as reported by honest priests and laymen alike.

We know Christ to be the Alpha and the Omega and can see that the experience of the Mass integrates our consciousness wonderfully via the path of memory to the His-story of Christ.

However you have shown us that Christ approaches us predominantly from the future.
Could it be that our hopes of meeting Christ in the Communion service as it exists, need to be much more defined and limited to that which it is - His-story, and that the higher experience of Him needs be sought by the integration of our consciousness with some new form of ritual celebration of His future - albeit an integration with mystery.

Love,
John W.

Preambly:

THE intercessionary period of Kali Yuga makes difficult and murky conditions within all phases of activity pertaining to the physical world, and the supersensual impressioning within and without it as well. Much like a trumpet with a muffler, our inordinate senses of spiritual divining are distorted to the point where at present, materialism prevails (even amongst the most clairvoyant). You might have a high-pitched vantage with a massive lens to view the stars, and still it will be a cloudy night. This is what Kali Yuga is and more: a clouded night and a fog-filled day.

And He is needed. With all of the urgency that presses in amongst us, He is needed. With Man so disabled, cut off from his heavenly perceptions and made distraught thereby - He is needed. Amongst the doubt in the hearts of the goodly and the recklessness in those who believe themselves abandoned - He is needed. This is His time, because we need Him most, right now.

If our spiritual impressionings are vague it is not because of an emptiness within, but that we are extraordinarily compressed within a physical existence that is taut with unrelenting tensions. Seized up upon itself, our compacted matter is still yet to be permeated respondingly. The only reason why experiences of a psychic nature glaringly break through at times in the comprehension of they who are open to that influence, is because the experience is more physically related than it is spiritually defined. It comes via the astral/physical sense conditions and is restricted to the immediate (quite often mirroring a physical condition within a man) in cooperation; whereas the experiences of the spiritual worlds directly are quite blocked insofar as the consciousness that is receiving them. The imaginative forces bridge the clairvoyant inadequacies, however they cannot translate a spiritual actuality as is.

Ordinarily, with the correct perception a spiritual actuality would be an objective event to be observed and agreed upon. Within the conditions of the Globe today, and within our physical consciousness which receives such conditions, the only way a man may come to realize and experience a spiritual event is via his subjective reasonings, rather than through clear observations without himself.

This will not always be the same within the conditions of matter and makeover, but for the present it is sorely the situation we must bear with. So in relation to the way in which any given man will experience the holy powers working through him and into the world, it should be explained that this will reflect only partially that which does occur, and also it shall be summoned up through his consciousness subjectively through imaginative recall. Eventually each man's preliminary interpretations will coherently coincide with the exact realities as they are adhered in nature. The senses will incorporate many subsistent planes of actuality as they co-occur. But for now the lenses are obscured and we are given to rely on our deeper, yet unseen reaches within the determination of heart and heart's mind. We must depend upon such inner bearings that will find their way through without the outer instruments to guide. We can do this with the right coordinates and the help of Christ, God-willing.

The Question: The 'How to' of the Decision

True decisions are never made hurriedly or on the spur of the moment. Some decisions may appear to be summoned all of a sudden or pressed to be answered immaturely, but in relation to the nature of an inner decision, the preparation and formulation makes for the resumé and is essential to the consistency resulting.

A Christian may be called to reaffirm his position in a variety of ways throughout any given day. There can be many responses, differing responses, which go to make up the 'meat' of the final decision. For there are components to every man which must all be heard: some that will argue, some that must needs be worked through. Even when our prospective self comes to the fore and takes authority in that of the future, there comes also that creature from the past who cries to maintain all that has gone before and perhaps wills to remain, rather than let go to change.

Decisions take much providing for, even when the heart prescribes quite knowingly that which is the right and proper decision to come to. Ahead of such time as is manifest, there requires thoroughness on behalf of the man to pay respect to every facet of being and condition which is to be affected. It is upon entering into such mighty decisions that those facets and conditions begin to present most markedly to be guided. This is why the student who begins his path in earnest is immediately beset with all kinds of opposing tests, as it were - simply because he is called to address and reconcile every detail which will call upon him, out from him. As often it is, the more important and heart-driven the decision so formulating, the harder and more difficult the faculty which is exhumed is to put to the test.

From this you may understand therefore that the decision spoken of, which asks each and every incarnate should they wish to remain upon this particular Tree of Life, is well prepared for in advance and answered largely in small portions throughout the preceding periods. In short, although however it is that there comes the time eventually (and soon) for such preparation to come to a close, whereby the soul no longer has that liberty of time to take up the pieces in deciding, if they have not worked through the necessary fulfillments, this may not have been won in the parliament of self, sufficiently to go further.

The Question of Feeling Inadequate & Unholy

It has been said that one of the greatest 'blow-outs' of excess vitality misused and spent within the aspirant can be that of megalomania. To this we would add, that there is the same demon manifest also in spiritual self-doubt and annihilative thought suffered within.

The corruptive passion of desiring to contain and control the world is born out from an immature ego which has been enlivened with the holy realities yet has not exercised them out from himself. The virtues become corrosive if they are not expressed, made manifest through action and thought without. This often comes with a strong willed person, who of high mind has drawn such powers unto himself initially, but has collapsed within at the gates of action and turned virtue into further empowerment for will. He will then go on to project this will into outer circumstances believing this to be equally holy, and in the course of the inverted astralities (see Narcotics- Corrupting the Astral) the discernment and practice will go on to manifest the very opposite of the virtue first drawn in.

Now in relation to the 'Christian man' who is pained by a low attitude of self-worth and deficit of sacred experience, this same demon offers the corruptive passions of desiring to contain and control the person within as though that very person was distinct from who they really are. The ego can be as subjective yet mistaken in this investiture, just as it is with the megalomaniac who cannot determine the perimeters of self and willfulness in relation to the outer world. The individual in this instance turns upon his inner world and dictates in ways which cause self-affliction. Once again we have an immature ego who has initially drawn in such vitalities from inspirative sources yet not qualified them in the immediate.

In other words, when the force from the virtue was received it should have been translated into manifest action, but because of the disablement of self (and this can come about for many reasons) this has not occurred. Eventually the virtues appear as poisons and the man begins to hold an extremely low view of himself (and of others) because of this. He may go into Church or to revelry for further inspiration, which can actually cause further aggravation given the above. The only way out from this particular spiral is in the 'doing' rather in the reflecting (or even praying) ... it comes of the release and expiring of the heavenly forces.

What this means is that it becomes in that man that he needs and must find ways to provoke happinesses, joys, inspirations, good work (not insincere, empty or heartless enterprises), effect love, communion, goodwill, charity, compassion etc. out in the world effectively. He must expend this virtue in order to contain it properly. Mere talk and conjecture and abstractness will not provide the relief needed, nor can more goodness flow back into a man until it is spent amongst others.

Question: of Ritual & Consciousness

The question here was regarding a ritual or formality which might assist with the decision making process; and it is a very good question because it immediately helps us to understand just how difficult it all is.

When we defer ourselves to ritual we are, in fact, most ill-disposed to any decision making whatsoever! The decision process cannot be exteriorized or made to occur apart from us, without from us, or encouraged to effectively inspire, conspire or make of us - it has to be self-consciously deliberated one hundred percent within; self-determined, self-realized, self-acquitted, arterially and thoroughly, self-consciously within.

If we participate in a ritual we are giving over to the collective strengths and influences which it might present. We are predisposing our own mindful directives into the care and direction of another being (be them invisible or priest) and to the effects of whatever percussive effort is enabling the ethers to strengthen. 

If such a ritual could be prescribed that would assist a man to come to those decisions of Christhood it would demean the properties of selfhood in consequence. There has been no way to reform such as this... even though there have been those faculties of the Church which severely believed that Christ could be delivered within Man in this way. Methodology denies ego, and for Christ to be born in the ego of each Man, this must be invoked by self-conscious reckoning and not by an artificial stimulation.

This is not to say that some rituals aren't beneficial to Man ... it is just to answer the question in relation to the Decision and whether or not we may be enhanced through practice rather than self-conscious thinking.

One more thing to add here however: it is also true to say that there are some practices which can and do lead to a man developing an enstrengthened measure of focus, concentration and direction of purpose. These practices are exercises which are not involved communally, but in isolation, under the direction of one's own will and ability. Any repetitive practice actually strengthens a man in the process. Where there is will, effort, intention exercised there becomes a certain reinforcement in the etheric body maintained. If you couple this will, effort and intention with a physical percussive movement - digging the garden, stirring the porridge, swinging a pendulum, striding a walk to a rhythm etc. with using significantly inspirative mantras, verses, prayers, in repetitive dance alongside the physical movements, then you have an exercise which will work through the etheric body enhancing the memories, vitalities, and in this instance we speak of, the quickening of the thought processes with its clarity and definition which enables us to reaffirm and meet our decision making when required.

Postscript to the exercising: further repetitions such as same time of day etc. enhance the powers further. Also, the nature of the meditation entertained, and the characteristic of the employment you are involved in with the percussive effort makes for great and subtle differences.

Question: as to Integration as a Function of Consciousness and its Place in Communion in Relation to the Path of the Memories

• Our consciousness can be infused.

• Our consciousness can be integrated.

• Our consciousness can be combined with.
• Our consciousness can be determining.
  

Infusion occurs when a 'higher' consciousness over-lights (as distinct from overshadows!) that of our own self-determining consciousness. This occurs during the receptivity provided during prayer, Communion, inspiration, rapture etc. - the influence ranging from Christ to Muse. It suggests an inequality of mind, whereupon we are enlightened or expanded for a time and raised beyond what is ordinarily achievable with our own working day-to-day awareness.

Integration denotes the mingling of principal qualities. This can occur when the past represents itself to the consciousness enabling a bridge into the future thereby. Integration makes the differing aspects respective to each other. It can be in the meeting of equals or unequals (in plane, principle or persona) and is prerequisite to any action of consciousness which relies on the power of two that it may know itself in relation to something else.

Combining is an important differentiation to make from integration. Combining requires two equals to participate firstly. Necessarily this also must occur same plane, same shared reality etc. Combining also requires a living, enspirited presence of two parties to share in the commune. Therefore by definition, one cannot combine with the past and have the past actively participate. The term integration was used in relation to the process of Communion because, via the memories we meet with certain planes of happening, thought and experience, but do not actively, in equal or by living (currently living) means, combine with those memories.

Determination in consciousness directs our wonderings, seekings, furthering because of the curiosities - our willing, our efforts, our deliberating, our deciding. Determination depicts who we are, who we go to in thought, who we choose to deflect ourselves against and who and what is best to combine with.

Now given the above we can look to the sacrament of Communion in relation to the memories and ask what occurs. As we began with initially, we find that the condition our consciousness is cradled in at present, is not with the spiritual perceptors or sense of presence or actuality that it could objectively have were it to perceive the ritual as it is happening. We have little or no immediate means of knowing, for example, if the event of the Communion was worthwhile at the time - such as if our host (the one we rely on to govern the proceedings) were nursing a hangover which is dogging his consciousness. If he is waylaid by a personal misery or given to a wondering which distracts him out from his purpose of that holy moment, then the efficacy of his procedure will be gravely marred. Were this to be the case, would we know any different, given the shadow world of the spiritual that vaguely graces us?

An effective Communion enstrengthens the participants in a way which reinforces their own incarnating within the physical world (as wanting as it is). It means that limb by limb, where the will drives into the blood and circulates, it does so with more of the sureness of definition, that the 'I am' is indwelling and supreme.

In a roundabout way we have something of a comparison, if not a contradiction to what was examined earlier in relation to ritual and awareness. However, as fine a point as it is, we may say that it is not the ritual or given method which will choreograph an effective 'I am' (and therefore self-consciousness to follow) but rather Christ's presence so called and taken in (through the physical water and bread).

So what we are saying here is that it need not be sophisticated or complicated, rehearsed, ritual perfunctory to a repetitive strain. The means of ritual can bring about gifts of other kinds, but on the highest of all high planes to be on - in relation to the practice and meaning and purpose of the Communion - it is the asking and the receiving of Christ which is all important. It is the genuine intent on behalf of the host, it is the sincere calling for on behalf of the wanting mass; it follows then, that Christ be there and so made in us.

And this you will know. If you remain uninspired you shall know this also. Do not be afraid to ask "Can I feel, really feel His Presence here? Do I feel Him within? Do I know myself to be stronger because of it and determined by Him?" If the answer is "well, no, not really" then you may begin your pilgrimage into finding whatever circumstances that shall speak to your spirit thus. Do not be content with the mundane particularly when it is meant to be of the especial!

This is not a request for a psychic benefaction. It is seeking to 'know' and experience the full health of the spirit. This can be found amongst enterprises which are of great love, creativity and joy… in a serene seriousness, in a profound environment ...

It can be worthwhile to want more and to know that you are so far unfulfilled. Christ wants much more for us ... so much more than we have been content with! We can hope for all of our brothers in this way. We can believe also that they too will find such completion and happiness remarkable to them.

We walk back through the ancient doors to return to the beginning. Planets retrace their cyclical spiraling that we may make a fresh start; every time we reference thought we do this in miniature before the mind's eye; all things go back and begin yet new life before resuming. The quickest way in most to invoke the imaginative powers (and therefore entertain the spiritual consciousness within) is through the memories rather than the actualities, in process. We associate, we integrate. 

The journey though, from the deep past into now and then on to the Future Christ who bears our stories yet to follow, starts at that beginning, that soul-reference, in which we are introduced to our Father and name Him such. This first recognition was a momentous occasion in our being (and to Him also); and following on from that we are reminded of all of the times since then (in the collective) that we have gone to Him.

Sandwiched within the sanctity of the Alpha and Omega we live our lives. Every time we work a thought, striving for betterment, attempting to grapple with the divine mysteries as we may find them, interpreting the angelic signs and speak, giving ourselves to the purpose of higher thought, cherishing our beings and honoring those of others in all of their godly aspects, we polish the gold on our reflective consciousness and bring precision to its definitive picture. We make fine ourselves, our world and our futures ...and slowly but surely it is happening! We are qualifying our decision with actuality. We are giving it both substance and meaning and reaffirming His Faith in us by such becoming. 

Amen

Chakras- 28th February 1999

  
[Question on the nature of the chakras from James Gillen]

Dear James,
The Chakras illumined within the body of Man, are ancillary to his organization and independent of the planetary influences. In popular teaching they are perceived to be batteries of energetic propensity - distinctly with virtue and power, particularly when activated on their respective levels.

To most students they represent the wheels and lights found on a pinball machine - or something similar - with which the very enlightened may reach a perfect score with!

However, there is more to these concentrated centers that are carried along by our being ... that they are, individually, angelic entities - each separate and distinct from our own indwelling consciousness - although grafted on to our personal starry frame - quite alike to anemones amongst the rock pools, pocketed away, a hidden nature within.

They have been with us within our evolution since the very first formation of an organ had begun. As independent as they are, the Chakric beings are impressionable to the ways of their over-ruling human, and work in the man to translate many properties, filtering both charge and discharge. Enlivened or inanimate, they offer also a cosmic presence, with bearing upon the function of that which they are adhered to, experiencing a parallel evolution reliant upon the development of the man within.

It has long been known that the artificial stimulation of any chakric center within an individual is without lasting effect, and eventually causes a deterioration in the further responsiveness that would ordinarily follow. But what is not discussed, yet begs much greater issue, is the ethical perspective governing those who would try for 'false positives' within their astral/organic whole.

The willful manipulation of angelic beings is of terrible consequence. All being equal, it is one thing to conjoin harmoniously and progress according to the natural developing processes, but it is quite another matter when a man strikes charge over their most gentle of kindred and milks them for more than he is entitled to. Because all angelic beings share in the one mind with extraordinary singularity amongst all ranks therein, it is well known that if by action or design you offend one, you offend them all! Overt obstruction of the chakric responses offend them no end!

You see, it is a matter of the most subtle regulation taking place - it is not that the 'inactive' chakra is taking in less that it should; it is, as guardian to Man, holding off the incoming of forces until such a time as he can withstand their impelling nature! And it is only according to a progressive development that a man can effectively coerce the Guardian Angel honorably, to translate the powers yet further.

Now it is that these angels are not transferable, but indeed trace our incarnations and beyond with great personal love and determination. Within their own sphere they are self-consciously cohabiting (although not creative or inventive) - our personal Elohim* who would guide our travels with great joy and aggressive caution.

This may explain to you in part the experimental fascination which has been held for these 'private' and sensitive parts of a man - explained more in terms of their lowest appearance, rather than in being known for what they truly are.

Yours in the Service, Dear Friend,
XXX

*They are therefore as correspondents in their action and capacity to the greater Elohim within the macrocosma. They are not relative to the Planetary Spirits within their spheres contained, but moreover pertaining to the hierarchy which guides them.

Euripides’ Protective- 26th January 1999

A son of the Son of God I stand,
Before this arena of foe contesting,
- Unarmored and bare.
The sky too high to climb into,
The earth too closed to receive me;
The teeth, the sword,
The spear, the thought,
All there is now is death to free me.

My mortal courage seized,
Now deflected into pained dilemma;
My mortal brain so quizzed,
Like wine in the amphora.

My ears are censored with this one song,
From these civilized barbarics it is sung,
Who will watch my tearing,
And my bleeding on this ground...
When all is done.

This sand is hot,
There is no shade here,
My eyes are bald to this sun’s piercing glare;
My life departing,
Given to despair.

For I am damned by some thousands of people,
I am damned by some thousands of people,
Who are cheering at my prospects,
Of my diminishment,
Of my failure,
Of this harsh rendering,
Of my bleeding,
Of my torture,
And yet,

I am a son,
of the Son,
of God.

Last moments, dear soul, impart most times the greatest impressions to those upon re-entry into their new life.

Here we have such a dismay, contrasting the former love for humanity invested in. This soul in its final impressionings, experienced degradation, cruelty, solitude, pain, scorn and the mortal fear of the animal and the sword ... not because of one other individual, but there being thousands of participants to this crime - whose astrality was putrid with demonic corruption. The atmosphere there that the dying soaked into their own subtle bodies, was of the alarming hate-imbued carelessness of men at their very worst.

How does any soul react to this sufferance? In further lifetimes to come, how does he trust, how does he withstand those memories of abandonment by his fellow men? Of condemnation for no good reason, of wanton rebuke and harm impelling?

Does he go on to temper the world's cruelty with a strength of arms he must assemble? How still may he become consolate and reconcile the evil in the very men he once would have openly named his brothers?

Prayer for Reconciliation

Dear Christ,
I am humbled before thy almighty powers,
Contained in thy love ever stronger,
Oh subtle strength that negotiates life!
Be with me!

Beloved Christ, Creator and Keeper of our kind,
Show me this passage of Grace I now seek:
The path of the peacemaker,
Not the slayer of peace.

Bring to me Your comforts,
Replenish my faith once again,
So that I may find my place in life,
My contentment and love amongst men.

I pray, dear Christ, for companionship,
That myself to another entrust;
That with loyalty, fealty and all of friendship's banner,
I shall once again come to love.
May I defy all heartless activity,
With the certainty of knowing its need;
That believing in Your very sanctity,
Is overcoming the loneliest greed.

Be there peace in there - the unruly,
Be there peace even when disappointment resents,
Be there peace to anoint the scars of iniquity,
Be there peace to make space for the love.

Amen

Rave Reviews & the Silent Muse- 10th January 1999

Good Morning!
Incorporated in amongst the vast body of literature now amassed within the world, is much material which although crafted by the author named, has also largely been independently inspired. There can be many ways in which this occurs, and from a multitude of varying sources. Papers are co-written, as thoughts are embodied into witticisms, criticisms, aphorisms, philosophisms, dramatics, romantics, pedantics, phlegmatics, carthartics, pathetiques, or even abruptus innuendi!

Thoughts are embodied into word and submersed in form ... in print, on screen or given in dialogue; and particularly for those which have the most 'original' content or inspired voice, they are not solely attributable to the deliverer alone.

This is not a new thought and nor should it be. Fantastic prose and inventive concepts have long come to those bright minds who give them recognition and go on to work them further. Yet at the same time there are countless occasions when authors and scientists, artists and even strategists will say "It just came to me!" describing their finest of work. Of course, all that they have been and done leads up to that receptiveness here, but this is not the entire story, this does not explain the process involved - to make jumps into formerly unknown, unthought work, to just present it. Either there has been an outer influence assisting or there has not. Either we come to ideas solely by our own sequential reasoning, or there is some further encouragement to our envisioning which addresses us from 'without'. As said before, there may be a great many sources from which this comes.

Most would be surprised about the frequency of this co-authorization. Largely it is a common thought that there exists some generic pool of thought from which we may draw our inspiration. However if this in its simplicity were so, it should not explain intelligent thought, only indiscriminate ravings.

Wisdom is all about us! Substance is also there. And finally, so are beings - self-conscious beings. Even the sheaths of the deceased which remain and chatter on, are inhabited until dissolution by some occupying self-conscious entity living out in that form. Beings are there, invisibly co-existing, all the time a'whispering in our inner ear!

It is the nature of Creation that beings do give of themselves. They dearly wish to share what they are, what they know, and how they come to their life that is their own. It is second-nature, it is instinctual to their spiky souls.

Men rarely think independently from their elementals, their angels, their accompanying entities. The conversations in fact, that we hold within our heads, are testing the ideas brought to us from beings other than ourselves. They are not manifesting a duality of self-consciousness split within. However, as men we retain throughout all of this input, that sense of identity that discerns the preferred thought and filters the rest. We conduct the orchestra, we direct the players ... we write the reviews.

Now there are just two more points here to mention before we go on. Firstly, given the above (that there are works inspired by beings who are not named as the authors but nonetheless take part in the work) it is:

1. Prudent to question and weigh all works before us (even if written by ourselves) and decide merit upon content and not said authorship.
2. Be kinder to those who are honest enough to tell you that the source of the writing is not from them alone. Some folk have the ability to know this, and also to consciously have a relationship with their muse. If someone tells you that they co-script a piece, why is this more offensive than the many who do just the same but attribute it just to themselves? The phenomenon occurs daily. It is not so remarkable as one might think.
   

Question: Did Emily Bronte 'channel' her writing?
Answer: No, of course not! And neither is this work channeled either. Did she co-write with an intelligent muse? Yes, indeed.

Channeling occurs when the man gives over his self-consciousness to another entity and the dialogue in mind becomes a monologue of dictation. It is an invasive practice on behalf of the incoming entity, and usually attracts only lesser forms of being who would violate a man in such a way. It is beyond the karmical, ethical and sensible (as in sensibilities tolerating) for a 'higher' being to take over a man and use him as such. Otherwise we would all be walking gods!

Some questions from Bruce:
There has been a gap in time since the Elder Brothers worked with Helena Blavatsky. Why is this so? And was this the closest effort to this current work?

We have been involved and continue to be involved in many campaigns, which by and large are not publicly orientated. There are duties and concerns all over where we are required, as well as past commitments for which we are still responsible.

Globally there are tensions everywhere. These tensions currently are not the usual 'hold in place', 'in relation to' tensions, they are the kind which act as precursors to change. Some people are sensitive to the enormity of their influence about us, and it can be psychically painful to feel this 'building up' occurring all around us. Although folk express this in terms of physical cataclysms, it comes primarily out from the wrestling influences straining our spiritual environments moreover. We may translate this into an idea that a volcano will erupt or an earthquake split the earth, but it is indicative of much more than just evacuative responses. This is a time of confrontation, of choice, and of definite decision.

Gates open and gates close. Men are offered gifts, and some will have them. This is an exciting period, but one which requires a wakefulness, an earnestness, a virility and an intent. The next four centuries to come are going to ingest every soul who has ever incarnated formerly within mainstream humanity. The traffic therefore will be much greater than is usual (approximately seven times in number) (this also is accounting for the souls which are held back and those which rarely incarnate as well). It also means that there may be a concurrence of brief spans (born and dying again - only capable of shorter lives).

Those of you who have connected directly with us at present will probably not be called back again during this crucial time. The definitive decision shall be made this lifetime and will carry you on from that. Others who are vague or inconstant may represent themselves again in the next four hundred-year session, however very soon (within the next twenty years) this opportunity for return shall not be open. So for many, the quality of their spiritual lives and commitment to humanity is vital at this point from now on.

What of this decision to which we refer? The decision is a formal statement of soul that will qualify the individual for future residence amongst his global community. Literally speaking it is the decision to receive Christ (and therefore receive the whole world) into their being, wholeheartedly, unreservedly and with dedication. (Dedicating your life back to Father God requires that you acknowledge that it is His Life in you, firstly.)

Preparing for this decision has taken most all of their known humanhood. The acceleration of time as it presses upon the individuals, is awkward because there are those who are not ready. On the other hand there are associated beings (from the animal kingdom and devic kingdom) who already are given to this love and work for the world and have won their Christhood thereby. It is not a matter of brightness, naming Christ by name (rather naming Him in heart), or of evolutionary development alone ... there are magicians on the dark path who have advanced to extraordinary lengths but know not the qualifying humors to bring them into the next Round ... for these times ahead are now to be selective, and communities will be divided therefrom.

So this is the 'busy time' for our detail, and we are too occupied to be awash with a sentimental melancholy for those who will depart from us ... instead we choose to project an optimistic gravity amongst our greatest of concerns.

We work in many ways with as many styles as there are available (providing they are useful of course) and privately address people all over. We have never viewed our criteria to be made generalized, i.e. given to public comment or display, yet fully support the individuals whose given work has been to do so. (Yes, my Dear, there are borders to Faerie Land.)

No, we do not assume the role of stewards on the Titanic as far as this forthcoming apocalypse implies! For when viewed in the spiritual context, of its true reality within these tensions and changes, men are becoming opened to virtue like never before. The past is moving out. The former self strains but will not resist the glorifying presence which it will become.

The 'clearing reaction' which will take place within the world is really very important to the souls who will remain. It is necessary that for a time (a very long time actually), that one community may advance out without the waylaying of the other. This significant period of review shall occur over one hundred and forty-four thousand revolutions ... 144,000 days and nights for the influx and uptake of every soul to be received (approximately the four centuries just up ahead of us, as aforementioned). There are four divisions to this time period, each consisting of thirty-six thousand days collectively (three lots of 12,000, times 4) in which representatives of humanity from all four sectors will be given their respective times for appeal.

All of the 'tribes' (signatories to particular ages) are thus sealed into this number and recalled into incarnation. They denote men from various evolutionary beginnings, whose predominant characteristics still caveat them. In a roundabout way this can be interpreted in degrees upon the Zodiac in its complete aspect traveled also. After the last day a new era upon this Earth shall then begin.

There are one hundred and forty-four thousand Bodhisattvas who stand guardian over each day and each night (one a piece), who have been luminaries for that sector of souls past-karmicly. Watchers and contributors to the evolution of Man, they now welcome each in with their presence hugging close to the Globe, and being apparently accessible for the length of the incarnation throughout. As the choir of Bodhisattvas assembles, until the culmination of the last and final elated luminary, there amassed amongst the peoples is also our Christ most fully adorned.

This spectacular may be viewed by any man from wherever he is in the Cosmos. As the Great Ones gather and the nebulae of joy accumulates in the Shining Ones, men will be drawn in heart and in consciousness to their World with its grand assembly.

Although this reply appears to have little or no bearing on the question just asked, it is considerable to the activities in which we are involved in. Any collection of men who would work for the betterment of the spiritual condition of Mankind, without pride or favor, are immediately in resonance with the elders of their humanity. The network lives from heart to heart, conjoining each dear soul within the Great Heart from which all Life streams forth and indwells eternally.

The inner creed to love one another is supportive to each who subscribe. Each, who consciously admit the Light of the World within themselves have championed a place within that world to come.

Helena Blavatsky worked alongside some very powerful personalities. Our time with her was not in any way indicated through the written work, which was given and inspired elsewhere. Her attempt and success at breaking through the virginal membranes of materialistic thought did have our watchful blessing. It is true to say that men required much more to be offered them than simple sermons or fanciful poetry. She unsealed the Mysteries, she challenged the lodges involved - not with ridicule, but by demanding that they present what they stood for quite openly and without the usual deceit the secret gnosis implied. Now we have a more sophisticated materialism; one that at times embraces the 'energies' and explores the 'unseen', still yet to penetrate further, to divine imaginatively, to credulate asymmetrically.

There has not been a 'gap' so to mention as such, however works as this kind are few and far between. There is a certain chain of support which enables the essays to be relayed as they are, and creatively we are satisfied in that the individuals who they do go to are specific to this work. It is interesting how generally they can and are applied in universal context, however this work has always required responsive recipients who have such a relationship to us in order to receive them. Our intentions have been for their behalf, rather than public display (or the beginnings of any organization).

Having said that, we watch over the dispersement and are grateful for any opportunity to assist yet another. It is also important to add that our students themselves do not fully retain their teachings until such a time as they have imparted them to another! It might not be our only line of work, but an important one! Souls can hold remarkable destinies and our parts may be so finely placed in amongst the encouragement along their given paths...

This work is as unique as the people who are involved in it. Comparisons cannot be entered into. Soul to soul we address all instruction firstly. If an individual does read through that which we have had a hand in and feels our presence, then the relationship is immediately there. We feel and know the calling of any thought bent towards us ... and respond.
The nature of this work is esoteric - meaning just that.

Question:
Was it ever important that the Elders withdrew their instructions, that Mankind would somehow 'do it alone'? (Because of the development of the Consciousness Soul.) I know that you have given us some wonderful freedoms, but some don't see it that way.
Also, could a man (non-adepts), work it all out for themselves?

Do you remember the joke we made about the occultist and the mystic? Contrary to the usual ideas of evolution, men were far more advanced in one manner of speaking before they entered into the manifesting grind (laugh), and mystically it would still be possible to return to such soul-wisdoms which honor and dedicate to Father God, irrespective of the advice or indications given by their Elder Brothers about them. However, the presence within the world of men who are as supple as the fresh green reed, but wily to the winds that can crease - this presence is a support that should not be withdrawn for any measure of time or in any respect. But it is not a public presence.

In other words, we never intended our company to be amongst those who are not ready to receive us. For one thing it is a matter of perspective and perception: for example, one outstanding difference between the Christ and the way Lucifer address a body of men, is that when Lucifer is before a group he presents to each one in same copy. He addresses the 'body' as a body of men, collectively. If Christ comes to a group or a room he does so individually. This is a difficult phenomenon to describe, but I am sure you can get a feel for it. Christ knows each man and answers him thus, whilst Lucifer is intent upon making each to be what he will.

We have always maintained that we are repelled by the ideas of groupism. This was not just a philosophical perspective, but also a working reality for us. The exoteric factor may be transmuted to some extent, and the esoteric truths may go on to add value beyond the loss incurred, but primarily we do not begin to think in terms of 'overall' agendas. One by one our work together is mighty. There is a different strength involved in this, a tensile strength inherent.

Question:
You have a certain style of writing, what is the purpose of this? Some have objected, yet I find it quite beautiful ...
Some pieces of information must be contained much like a medicine bottle with a child-proof cap. Not all occult matters can be discussed at length or offered freely. They can be all too dangerous for the good of those who might casually find them.
This work requires:

• Concentration

• Effort

• An uninhibited self-consciousness (drug free for example)

• Signatory connection (much like a server on the internet, we can disallow, encrypt or shut down certain information)

• Open-heartedness

• Humor

• Respect (for truth, for Father God and for Humanity)

• A quiet and receptive mind

• A love of beauty & of Life

It can be remedial to those who are distressed or suffering physically, mentally or spiritually. It is not intended for personal empowerment, and is immediately blocked to those who would use it for such purposes. The karmic recall is too great otherwise, to allow.
