Towards Initiation

Lesson 10

um logo 003

You, right now, are building up root conditions for future experiences and the ability to maintain and carry through the operation in successive worlds or areas of experience. Even if you reincarnate here you will be able to continue this process consciously and know and understand your true nature, just the same as Elade has shown by his own experience and can reveal to his students.
By this knowledge it can be seen that the structure of Man is the nature of Man Himself. Because the physical form is an area of consciousness and experience, it represents a condition of “graduating” awareness from the Source to consummation at this level. Thus, the pattern for self-realisation lies within the mental “atoms” at all points of form manifestation. In simpler terms this means that the person who is in need of being “reborn”, illumined or awakened needs to understand this process taking place within his own seeming limits (his own form) and not in an image outwardly perceived by the senses. You will see that Elade has used himself to explain our teachings, and this is the key. Jesus did this to explain the deeper teachings, and so did Buddha. We, ourselves, are our own text books of the mysteries of life, and as we turn the pages of our own make-up we uncover the secret which is the Cosmic Intelligence Itself at every level. Not in the self-created images of “painful” experience, but a wonderful continuing process of creative expression, of a responsibility for all that we do as builders of our own destiny.
We are all centres of active intelligence pulsating in an area of responsive “elementals” or elements which take on the precise forms for the expression of our own individual thought patterns. Through persistence on our own part these elements or types of matter acquire such densities as to be observed or perpetuated throughout the whole electro-magnetic spectrum and we receive consummation on every level. For example, when we express Love this streams from within the centre of ourselves through all areas of finer matter or areas of conscious experience to the farthest-out areas of what we call sensory experience. All that prevents you from experiencing true Cosmic Awareness are the limits you set upon yourself. This means that you should not think in terms of space as one does at this level. Here, our space is determined by the limits we place on our own perception, so Cosmic Awareness cannot be understood in the same light, for whilst we have said that we, as individuals, are autonomous centres, our conscious abilities can be directed to any area in mind because that which we call “mind” is that substance which is our natural element, just as water is the natural element of the fish. However, unlike the fish which moves about in his element, we remain still and yet move through the unlimited areas of conscious activity!
From the physical point of view, this would seem to set up myriads of lines of force emanating from one conscious unit to another, and it is because of this great network that interchange of knowledge is possible. Like a colossal telephone network it intersects at all points with combinations at every level.
This network corresponds to the lattices of atoms suspended in space in the invisible and what we call the physical. In this area the elements become solidified in the positions they occupy in space. Thus, crystals could be described as shapes frozen in space. Every element has its own particular shape and is always recognised by it. For example, carbon, gold, salt (sodium chloride) etc. will always crystallise within what is known as the “cubic” system. These forms solidify through the various pressures and conditions that have been placed on them. In the network we are in touch with every element in our solar system, and many of these are contained (in varying degrees of solidity) within our physical forms. Knowledge of this can help one extend his consciousness far beyond his own boundary limits to every atom within the Whole, because everyone is linked by its corresponding geometrical shape through every level from invisible to visible. Also, one becomes able to influence all areas by remaining in harmony with the whole elemental area in space. Later in one’s “growth” one becomes able to actually produce forms by one’s own efforts and be able to create one’s own world and people it and project into it one’s own life energy. Knowing how to “spread your nets” correctly, one begins to reap a “miraculous” draught of fishes – Christ-like Inspiration.
We can see here that even if one advanced type of consciousness might appear to “evolve” beyond the range of less advanced “souls”, there remains forever the essence or corresponding mind-form to share their experiences. So, the greatest of the greatest is always within one’s grasp. Thus, as the Els are enjoying a “non-time” experience, they still know of your time and space by virtue of the opposites existing in the sphere of activity.
These facts support the evidence that any being can live in this world yet not be subjected to its conditions, and those who have applied our teachings have been able to prove this. Again, it is by the same means that beings from other areas of our Cosmos (other planets) can incarnate here on Earth to help us with our awakening by using the normal way of entry. An El (god) can be with us, a Vulcan can be with us, or a Venusian or a Mercurian, and when, as at present, an important change is to take place, the Messiah of our system can be accompanied by His assistants from the “heavens”. In other words, the “heavenly hosts” can be here in quite a natural and ordinary way…This is the sheer beauty of Divine Truth and Cosmic Reality. God, in all His Fullness and Glory, can be manifest in the flesh here and now if we will but let it happen. St. Paul says that, “In him dwells the Fullness of the Godhead bodily”. Who has challenged or sought to prove this? If what we have taught is not true, then the attainment of Perfection is impossible and all work is in vain. But Perfection is the goal of experience, therefore it is the natural process of living. The very high frequency rates of the Divine Fullness can be contained at this level, because the “physical” form is merely a crystallised thought form. The conditions we place on our physical bodies is governed by our lack of understanding of them.
Tutankhaten’s tomb has been mentioned. Tutankhaten was the last of the Sun Priest Kings and many secrets died with him. His “uncle” Ahknaton had tried to re-establish the ancient secret teachings of the One God in the form of a new religion, but owing to the materialism of the priesthood the plan fell through. He too was one of the Goodly Company. It might be of interest to mention that when Tutankhaten’s tomb was opened over fifty years ago, the entity was here again to continue the work. He did, in fact, live again to teach the way of release via the Sixteen Steps.
The early Egyptians were in possession of the two books of Jawe, which was in fact the pre-Flood “Bible”, and its teachings were known in ancient China from where came the “I-Ching” which has, unfortunately, been degraded into a system of divination because its true secret is unknown.
The early Gnostics knew of these books and referred to them as the Books of Yewe. The ancient Buddhist teachings contain the same doctrines – we have the eightfold path and the thirty-two marks of the perfect man.
The true doctrines are based upon the “things that are”, this meaning the way in which the Cosmos is constructed to function as a harmonious unit of conscious experience.
Archetypal Man, or Perfect Man, is androgynous in nature. This means that he contains the balanced masculine and feminine natures complete within himself. We use the terms “masculine” and “feminine” because they are more accurate than “positive” and “negative”. These seemingly two natures can be either positive or negative within themselves, which accounts for the sixty-four.
It is these two lines of force within man which makes movement or activity possible within the vast areas of Mind. It is also these two lines of force which make creation and the ability to create possible, for in the intersection of these two forces we get a manifestation or form in crystallised thought. This is necessary to be able to experience, or consummate, the nature of our being in actuality, otherwise we would be beings in a state of inactivity without any real cognition of our potentials.
The Ultimate Principle does not possess this duality within itself as such because It is the complete One, therefore Its action is singular in nature, and that is why we, in our teachings, cut directly past all systems to help you to understand this One more easily.
It has been suggested that the inherent method of divine creativity is based upon a system of “cosmic sexuality”. Some exponents of the true teachings have suggested this and it is true inasmuch as they are referring to an interplay of the masculine and feminine natures, but let us not misunderstand this. “Sex” as understood by most humans, is the method used to get offspring, but our understanding of the sexual process is that it is the interplay of Love and Wisdom. This Love has nothing to do with the human concept of “sex” because different methods of reproduction are used in other areas of intelligent life. One can see easily that if Love is present during this act, there could be no sexual offences with their brutality. Therefore when one says that “sex” and Love are the same thing they are in error. When properly aligned, however, a proper outworking is achieved.
