Talks to Novices

Lesson 12

um logo 003

Since we have talked much about “inner levels” and various “planes” and that this Order operates from the “inner planes” – what do we mean?

Speaking of what we term the “physical level” we refer to that area of conscious awareness perceived and understood via the medium of the senses of this body or form through which we are now operating. This “physical body” and “physical world” is really no more solid, as it were, than the next “department” or “level” of which we are not conscious of at this particular moment. This brings us back to a further understanding of what we have said about the continuity of consciousness. We live in an entirely “spiritual” creation or area of activity which is manifested from the Source or Centre of Universal Consciousness. Spiritual meaning that all manifestation or activity is comprised of what we could call, at this stage, “thought substance” or light energy pulsating at different frequencies.

Now when we say the “inner levels” this means that there are myriads of other worlds of experience which are just as “solid” and real as this world to the perceptive faculties of those who live and operate in those respective spheres. Thus, from this particular “level” another world or area is contacted by becoming aware of or experiencing it equally as real whilst still operating at this level. This means that you can become aware of this “inner level” so that it is just as real and “physical” – like if you take a train from your present town and journey to another. To achieve this widened state of awareness one has to “loosen” himself from the binding illusions which firmly attach him to one area of his own consciousness or function. For just as you are reading this now and this talk comes to you from – say London – it is only another area of your own expanded consciousness at this level keeping you informed of knowledge you are desiring to understand. Elade is merely another facet of your own conscious awareness informing you about yourself at this level. Because Elade, again for example, is an intelligence which has “incarnated” into this “level” from his own area of function he keeps you informed that man’s consciousness is unlimited in scope. Throughout the whole Cosmos and this Solar System, which is only one minute part of the Universe, the same rule applies. The “Gods” or Super-intelligences do not use “space ships” or “flying saucers” to visit us, in order to help us, but use what we call the normal and natural means of contact. If a “God” wants to bring certain knowledge to Earth from his own sphere he comes as a “human” to us. Check your records. When you look up into the sky at night and see millions of stars you are looking at the “physical” level of other Gods and this is how it is appearing to you through your senses and you have a feeling of great distance and in actual fact this “great

distance” experienced internally is matched by the experience you can have internally when you expand your own awareness.

This “human” level, for example, is “inner level” to Elade. Levels, in reality do not exist. It is a matter of where our own area of function lies.

There is a continual process of some intelligences moving their areas of function – especially with what we might call the “more advanced”, or those who have released themselves to a greater awareness of the Universe. Thus the “angel” sphere from which Elade has come is only another facet of your own consciousness of which you are not fully aware and he is the vehicle or form by which such information is revealed to you – if you can understand. For example, you believe that you are a “human” because all that which you can understand is “human” to you; but you are really something greater and it is only by releasing yourself from your present illusions of separateness that you can become of your Self as you REALLY ARE.

So you now see that the “calling down”, or “invoking” of the Gods is no mystery because they are, in reality, thought forms in manifestation to us of our own expanded awareness. The same with the “Order of Melchisedek” – this represents the particular area of expanded awareness you have, or can, acquire. Now you see that it does not represent a body but rather a state to which you have belonged all the time and have not known it and the “knowledge” attributed to this particular “level” is yours for the asking and all that which is required of you is to be Yourself in expression.

We would like to add here, however, that this Order was once an organised body. It was a selective, very advanced, mystery school pre-flood which was a very long time ago and those of that group who achieved the final mystery made it possible for many others to be caught up into their radiated energy producing the after-flood great teachers. It is an operating area of activity within this Solar System and beyond and will continue to be linked with Earth until the last “mortal” discovers his “immortality”. From this area teachers and agents are continually coming and going. Because Earth is your present area of function you should become fully consciously aware of your true status and therefore this rules out getting information from what you call the “psychic” levels. Teacher and student meet in the flesh and understanding must come whilst “in the flesh”.

Orders, as such, represent states of ordered life or experience within the Whole and this manifests in a particular sphere as “groups” or “communities” of beings who comprise and imbibe that particular type of consciousness to which they belong. Therefore, the Order of Melchisedek exists as such a “group” on this planet and beyond and those who come to us through the hands of the Agent graduate, as it were, through to this Order. There are, of course, other Orders of beings with

their own particular kinds of work and “students” of other systems graduate through to them. To whichever you eventually graduate depends upon your own path of approach according to your inherent makeup or desires.

To acquire the “Melchisedek” expansion of consciousness it is necessary to dispense with the “physical” modes or “tools”, as used in meditation and magic, to establish a concrete pattern of harmony in Earthly experience. Once you become released from physical or sensual attachments the process of expansion becomes accelerated and we have “teachers” or “instructors” at all “levels”. These teachers and instructors are really the agents of your unconsciousness to your conscious self. Thus Elade represents your teacher or instructor through to this Melchisedek level and you will have to dissolve him in the future to go on into greater glories. So to make “Oaths” or acts of obedience to existing Archons or hierophants, in any school, is to place a limitation upon your own progress in the process of unlimited awareness.

What we have tried to point out is that there is really only One level of consciousness and this is the area of God’s own activity showing in an unlimited number of forms. The “Gods”, Agents or Messengers are intelligencies or beings who have expanded their awareness to such an extent that they can come and go through any area they wish and do so mainly to teach and show the less experienced how to enjoy more of God’s kingdom.

This involves the laying down of certain “rules” or “laws” which pupils must adhere to if they want the same abilities. No one can break these rules or barter his way in because as one can only play a certain tune on a piano by depressing the right notes so there is only one way to achieve God Realisation.

The term “inner level” refers to a particular realm of your own expanded consciousness which you are not aware of at this point in time and space. In reality there are these other realms which are just as real and true as the one you are now having within your physical body and the way to break down the narrow field is to become attached to none. We have tried to show the correct way through these lessons and if you are a person of resolve it is required of you to prove this out.

In support of what we have said we refer you to the following Bible references: St. John, Chapter 14, verses 1 – 4 and Chapter 10, v. 16; Romans, Chapter 12 v. 4 – 5. and Chapter 13, v. 1 – 8.

When we plunge deeper into this teaching it becomes known as the Angelic Doctrine and it is very interesting but let us take heed of the warning in the Bhagavad Gita: 

“They who worship the Shining Ones go to the Shining Ones; to the Ancestors go the Ancestor worshippers; to the Elementals go those who sacrifice to Elementals; but My (The Most High God) worshippers come unto Me.”

“What have the angels power to do? All things. For on them is all wisdom of God and all His art – The angels are pure and clean, without sleep, in an eternal waking state. The body of man is imprisoned in sleep, therefore he must be awakened if he would attain to the wisdom of angels, that is to say, to the wisdom and art of God….” Paracelsus.

We should now be clear on the following points:

God has fragmented Himself into His creation – which is the very essence and nature of Himself.

Man is the Son of God because he is the perfect replica in miniature of his Parent. Man contains all the possibilities to become as Almighty as his Father but because there are other Sons and Greater Gods man must reserve himself to an act of sharing and co-operating with the Whole. This is where a correct understanding of Love should come in.

Man possesses the ability to go in and out of all worlds and can achieve this when he is attached to none. Man belongs to the great Communion of all intelligent life and shares his experiences with “Super Intelligencies” and the “least”.

When a Great Teacher enters a certain sphere of activity or “incarnates” into a world he gives it a boost or super-charges it with his own radiation which speeds up the process of awareness in that particular world. This manifests as – on the one hand a great “revival” of spiritual interests and on the other hand as a breaking down of the existing systems.

There follows a little exercise to show how every religion is really the same at heart.

Each religion has its own doctrines and dogmas, its numerous sects and cults and diversions.

All are agreed on the necessity of a form of DISCIPLINE.

All religious systems, sects and cults are humanly organised.

Whatever man does the Truth remains.

If there are Laws to be confined to, then it is only by these Laws that Reality can be experienced.

The Bhagavad-Gita

“He whose reason is everywhere unattached, the self subdued, controlling desires, goeth by renunciation (discipline) to the supreme perfection of freedom from obligation. How he who hath attained perfection obtaineth the Eternal, that highest state of wisdom, learn thou from me only and precisely.”

Comment: The path is warm with Love and not quite as cold as it appears.

The Dhammapada

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow (the over-shadowing) that never leaves him.”

See Psalm 91.

Manual of Zen Buddhism

“There is a reality even prior to heaven and earth; indeed, it has no form, much less a name; eyes fail to see it; it has no voice for ears to detect; to call it Mind or Buddha violates its nature, for it then becomes like a visionary flower in the air; it is not Mind nor Buddha; absolutely quiet, and yet illuminating in a mysterious way. It allows itself to be perceived only by the clear-eyed. It is Dharma truly beyond form and sound; It is Tao having nothing to do with worlds.”

See Isaiah Chapter 64, verse 4.

Sayings of the Lamas (Tibetan)

“To him who knoweth the true nature of things, what need is there for a teacher? To him who hath recovered from illness, what need is there for a physician? To him who hath crossed the river, what need is there for a boat?”

See St Matthew Chapter 9 verse 12

“An astronomer maketh calculations and divinations concerning the motions of the moon and the stars, but he doeth not divine that in his own household his own womenfolk, being at variance, are misbehaving.

See Isaiah Chapter 66, verse 1

Sayings of Confucius

“It is only the able and virtuous man who can attain to this perfection and can sacrifice when he has attained to it.”

See Second Epistle of Peter Chapter 1, verses 5-7

The Zend Avesta

“One may heal with holiness, one may heal with the law, one may heal with the knife, one may heal with herbs, one may heal with the Holy Word; amongst all remedies this one is the healing one that heals with the Holy Word; this one it is that will best drive away sickness from the body of the faithful; for this one is the best healing of all remedies.”

“Ye shall know the Truth and the Truth shall make you free.” Jesus

Mohammedan Scriptures

“He sees without causes when his eyes have become penetrating – you, who are bound by sense, pay you attention to causes. He whose soul is beyond natural qualities is in position of breaking through causes.”

“Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God.” Jesus

Book of the Dead

“The Osiris Nu (the Osirified author of the text) is strong both upon earth and in the underworld (the mists); and the Osiris Nu shall not tarry, and he shall not lie without motion in this land forever. Being doubly beautiful shall see with his two eyes, and he shall hear with his two ears; rightly and truly. Osiris Nu is like unto Ra (in his image and likeness) and sets in order the oars of the boat (he brings order) among those who are in the train of Nu. He doth not tell that which he has seen and does not tell that which he has heard in the secret places.”

See St Matthew Chapter 9, verses 27-29

Also Romans Chapter 12, verses 1-2

“For in and out, above, about, below, ‘Tis nothing but a magic shadow-show, Play’d in a box whose candle is the Sun, Round which we phantom figures come and go.”

Omar Khayyam
