The Christened Mass (The Creation of the World within Man)

(Using the same Chalice with remaining contents, now grape juice is dropped into it at the indicated moment. This is to be squeezed from fresh grapes, or if this is not possible, bottled grape juice which has not been reconstituted … approx. one drop per person, water ratio 100-1,000 parts more. If grape juice is not available dissolved honey may be added into the cup at a slightly higher ratio proportionate to the dilution.)

Divine and Cosmic Christ,

Keeper of Time and of all times yet to be,

Ever present in the eternal moment,

Ever present to all unknown elements,

Presiding thoroughly and completely;

Presiding in naivety (the vacant space predisposed to a knowing),

Presiding in ingenuity,

Current to all that is currency.

Represented by Man,

And the stars that comprise him,

In the Consciousness,

In the Wakefulness,

In grand and purposeful discovery.

Represent in actuality,

In permanence, in substance and substantiality,

This Earth made real.

Represent in creativity,

And that harmonious homogeny,

Working in cooperate corporate joy,

In a synergy of sympathetic, causal mind.

Insoluble Water, into which now receives,

The earthly, the etheric and the starry substance,

Of this Earth, from soil into light.

(Grape juice is now added.)

Of this world, the etheric light of life,

Of the outer planets, of the starry body of Christ,

Cooperative and enlivened,

Active and obedient,

Waiting watchfully for His Will.

And in Divine Countenance,

Be true to Him.

Conveyor of the unfurling Worlds,

Respondent to all, each heart of every being sustained,

This before us, this substance,

Quickens within the empowering water therein,

As Divine and Perfect remedy,

To all that is distracted, fragmented, devastated by sin,

This World becomes in us through Christ,

And this most precious of substances, your Blood,

As it surged upon the soil and thus permeated the world.

I hold now these bleedings,

And ask of thee Christ,

That we may take them today,

Redeemed into the well of beloved tears,

Humbly into ourselves and this World,

And inoculate against all further harm,

Revivified by what You Give,

Accomplished in Your Grace,

Subjecting what is of death to rest,

That new love might survive into furtherance.

Out from the font of deep gratitude I speak these words to You now:

"Be in Me,

Create in Me,

As I Love You,

Christ our Creator,

Upheld by our Father."

Greater Life to Life,

I now become the World,

And out from the Chalice,

Spilling forth from my being,

I will call these words:

(All attending, before taking the cup to drink.)

"Be in Me,

Create in Me,

As I Love You,

Christ our Creator,

Upheld by our Father."

Amen

A Three-part Celebration of Communion- 19th August 2001

“Across the Sea, I Am the Sea”

As bodies go, the one body of water which infills and permeates and plumps this Globe, that one body in whole and in part, amassed and in droplet, humidified, rarefied or made solid and crystallized - that one body feels Nature from the inside.

Can you picture that body now as it extends out amongst the ethers, with same fluidic flowing, in flat, in wave, out from the membranes of this world? Same body, same water.

It never really was the chalice but the contents. See now the chalice of the world spill into the greater World beyond. See the cup empty over, forming a never-ending fount rupturing itself out into the open, bubbling and driving up, carried by an inner velocity, reuniting itself with the Cosmic Sea...

The Cosmic Mass (Acknowledging & Naming His Presence)

(The chalice water - distilled water with several drops of seawater included, and if not seawater, then fresh rainwater added also.)

Divinity Pure, withstanding and withstood,

Present in particular

Present in the novice life,

Present in antiquity's knowing,

Current in all numbers equaling You,

Represented in holy striving,

In the consciousness,

In the wakefulness,

In solemn quietude,

Represent in holy fervors, endeavors,

Imaginations that expire the old knowledge,

Freeing them into new form, new meaning, new consequence.

Represent in the raptures of combining,

The honest and enlightened intimacies,

In synergy of corresponding spheres.

Insoluble Water, the Liquid Wisdom as is,

Fluidic breath to all cavities,

Intelligent to all qualities,

Obeisant and endowing,

Furthering sequentially in true and natural progression -

As wisdom does,

According to the attributes calling

In a divine likeness to that of their own,

In realization of a greater consistency.

Conveyor of the Living Reason,

Respondent to the Heart of Hearts,

This before us, contained and waiting,

As Divine and Perfect remedy,

To all that is wanting within and without

This world and ourselves;

This most precious of substances,

Is verily the tears of Yours dear Father God.

I hold now these weepings,

And ask of thee Father,

That we may take them today,

Humbly into ourselves and this World,

And inoculate against all harm,

Revivified by what You Give,

Accomplished in Your Grace,

Subject what is of death to rest,

That new life might survive into furtherance.

Out from the fount of the throat I speak these words

To You now:

"Be in Me,

Create in Me,

As I Love You,

Dearest and best,

Father God."

Greater Life to Life,

I am the World,

And out from the Chalice,

Spilling forth from my throat,

I will call these words:

(All attending, before taking the cup to drink)

"Be in Me,

Create in Me,

As I Love You,

Dearest and best,

Father God."

Amen

Part 2

Marbles

Some say that the gods

Are ever at play,

That the planets roll out,

At random or in game;

That the rising and the fall,

In the breathing of the day,

Moves from a heartless chest,

And a life devoid of divine intelligence.

But I know other-wise.

I have witnessed first,

That God named Christ,

I've seen His Love,

As Life realized,

I've seen His Mind in all good things;

And when I've tired,

Of the antagonists' plight,

When nonsense speaks,

And the stupid make quiet,

When good souls are suppressed,

By this evil contest,

I go to Him. 

Abiding Thyself

"Upon a rock", He sayed, He sayed,

Up on a rock, he prayed, he prayed.

Heliotrope,

Ashes, a pitcher divine,

Not such a goblet,

More a hollowed carved stone.

Succored with fancy,

Abideth this brief lovely while,

Dreams all a'canter: the earthly unrobed.

Pinion the bride -

Rest and rest again,

Take in to her smiles,

Sane greed and eager,

Burning, urging, holding fast,

And asks and asks

And asks… and asks.

Come! Pour forth and be then done (when done).

Oh! Gratitude's recovery, our own soul's bride;

His Will, His Life, in all bestowed honor,

To you, that you,

May herein abide.
