The Soul and the WorldIn our search for the spirit, as we look and mature ourselves through union with spiritual powers of nature, it is essential to bring up the question Who Is My Father, and Who is 'The Father' of all? As a preparation for this: It takes purity of soul , the soul must cleanse itself of all earth illusions. The method is not to reject the layers of color and the soundings of the human world, but to understand, and penetrate through each layer of consciousness as it presents itself, until one comes to a pure space where the consciousness is felt no longer within one's self, but that the self has disappeared too, and this is no insignificant thing, for one perceives that it is now all sides from everywhere .... this soul of us is now mingled with the spirit of nature. If one is true to one's path of development, then the spirit is rebuilding itself just as always before when in the beginning it descended into earthly veils of substance, color and light. | ||
The Spirit in the Light and Our CreationIt is the will of the light to show and teach the way through the darkness. With the light we are always in the light. When the light is not present outside, then we must have learned from the Teacher three important things, to be calm and to listen to hear the voice of the Teacher, or Two ; to know the Way, and Three, to Shine from within for our self or others that call to us in need, if there is need for our light. For this, our Spirit Bodies have descended out from the Light. We have no more Father and Mother, nor brothers and sisters, that have birthed us or grew up as kin. We are freed from matter. We ascend and are reborn as Children of Light. From this moment - we must find the courage to follow the path the light reveals to the eye that knows it and sees it as the spirit of the creation. To follow those of earthly body is to follow back into the darkness. And the warning, it does not see itself nor the light, nor the path of the truly living, but is where the light cannot reach, and makes us to fall into it too, if we so follow it - and some must go that way out of karma. But knowledge and experience teaches us to turn our way from it, and even to know how to work into the material world and reap the rewards of seeing the pure materia reflect and absorb the light and substances of the enlightened human being. (the path of the Sun and Moon in conjunction). The Chemical Wedding shows the birth of the bodies of Light. In a deeply symbolic way we are shown the path in this story. | |||

The Spirits of the elements and Health A primitive man used to receive prayers that he said in the evening before going to sleep, and in the morning after waking up, and that was good. He strengthened his soul with spiritual forces as he prepared his soul for higher worlds, and after he left them, he again permeated his soul with higher forces, and as it were, sucked out soul forces from spiritual worlds. The mineral, plant and animal kingdoms below man are permeated with spiritual forces that always become renewed. The same is true of the four elements fire, water, air, and earth. Things are different with men. If a man doesn't connect himself with these spiritual forces, he doesn't' receive them. If he goes to sleep without preparation he doesn't get any forces in the worlds he enters then. No matter how learned, scientific and high-ranking a materialist is, if he goes into spiritual worlds unprepared in the evening, he stands far below a simple primitive man who has already connected himself with them through his prayer. Man has increasingly forgotten prayer in our materialistic age with its very admirable scientific achievements. He goes to sleep and wakes up with his everyday thoughts. But what does he do thereby? Something happens through this omission. He kills some of the spiritual life and forces on the physical plane each time. | ||
The Spiritual HeartBy concentrating on the spiritual part of the heart one can follow it to ancient Lemuria, for the head one comes to Atlantis and the solar plexus leads to the Hyperborean age. From the Book of the Wise | ||
The Spiritual Soul Nature and Seeing the SelfThe path of consciousness must become, over time, inadequate to describe what later replaces it as spirit-life. If one accepts the development of a spiritual soul nature (for some hitherto ultimate and unknown reason assuming this is the will of the being nature), then the template, of that which was before, and that which it became, and as it wished once to become, is consumed and is replaced by an interceding spiritual aspect of a superior nature to the previous and reforms it into self and participates in a higher spirit nature. Thus consciousness is an illusion of itself which as soon as it forms must dissolve it again, just as the breath breathes in and out, so does the spirit nature fill the emptiness of the soul and is consumed. When the nature reaches a higher level it creates another body out of it. This higher form is an aetheric man. Man is currently learning how to create a higher nature from his thoughts, feelings, and drives. These must be transformed into a spiritual form - thoughts, feelings, and drives which anticipate his higher spiritual form. Into a child is poured all the substances of the old spirit nature which is all 'will' into the aether body of the child in his 1st years of life, gradually then into his later life into thoughts from this thinking. His thoughts ponder over the aetheric substances of the previous years. These thoughts, unknown to the man, have a cosmic origin just as his will at birth is also from an unknown spiritual realm. These he must awaken to search for in his own nature. All of external nature can speak of these paths or portals, but hey are only found by developing the soul to see itself.

The Story of the Sheep and the LionLong-time ago in the Animal Kingdom, a sheep was passing and saw a lion crying inside a cage trapped and the lion begged the sheep to save him with a promise not to kill and eat it but the sheep refused. After much persuasion and for the sheep's gullibility it opened the cage for the lion. Now the lion was very hungry having stayed in the cage for days without food. It quickly grabbed the sheep to kill and eat but the sheep reminded him of his promise. They were still there arguing when other animals came passing and they sought to know what happened. Both the lion and the sheep narrated their own side of the story but because of fear and in trying to gain favour in the sight of the lion, all the animals took side with the lion except the Tortoise who claimed he did not understand. Now the Tortoise asked the lion to show them where he was before the sheep rescued him, he pointed at the cage. He asked again, "were you inside or outside when the sheep arrived"? The lion said he was inside. The tortoise again said, "ok, enter let’s see how difficult it could be inside". The lion entered and the tortoise locked him back inside. In amazement, the other animals asked tortoise why he did that? and he replied: "if we allow him to eat the sheep today, he will still go hungry tomorrow and we don't know who will be next amongst us to be eaten tomorrow. The Moral of this tale | ||
The TeacherA Woman asked the Teacher this question: Her Teacher answered; A man without knowledge of the spirit is the same as a man in the field who does not know that the airplane that flies over his head is made by people in a factory. And so man is formed out of the spirit, and if he wants to know of it, he must study with one that knows. How do we know the teacher teaches the true way? We find out about the things we need and want to see in our soul. Certain knowledge is born in us and forms in us when we study the thoughts and expressions of the teacher. Then we see in our self that portion which before we studied it, was invisible, or unclear. The first stage: To answer the question of reincarnation, you will find your answer by seeing how we all work together to be able to experience spiritual seeing with each other. That is how we unfold the past, just as if I take apart a watch, I must use something outside of the object, i.e. a hand or fingers to reach inside it. Second: A teacher proves he is a teacher by coming to the place inside of your heart. This will be a place where only a spiritual master can be found in your soul. To be there with him, you must find the way. | ||
The ThriaeThe Thriae (the Fates) Watching over the World feed on Spiritual Consciousness. If you feed them truth, them they will speak truth to you, but if you feed them lies, they will speak falsely back and bring with them a hive of torments. - Proverb from the book of Wisdom | ||
