GROUP INITIATION II ( cont.)

7 October 2003

The Seven & The Five

It should be noted that there are seven forms of light, related to the substance of the seven planes. These are stimulated and enhanced by the twelve forms of light of the twelve Creative Hierarchies, related each of them to one or other of the twelve signs of the zodiac. On this I may not enlarge as it concerns the mysteries of the higher initiations. I simply make the statement so that it may be appreciated by you as an occult fact to the proof of which you may not yet have access. A paralleling statement would be that the light of the seven centres in man (when enhanced by the light of the seven planetary centres) and the five kingdoms in nature (7+5=12), plus the twelve lights of the zodiac will produce a consummation of "light" effectiveness which will make possible the expression of the whole. This, through the medium of humanity. This is a basic statement which means little to you as yet but which will—in the next century—form a seed thought or "key sound" for the next revelation of the Ageless Wisdom. EA 563

I want now to bring your awareness as a group to the relationship between the seven and the five. My object thus far has been to build a group that could begin to function somewhat synthetically and provide a reflection in the microcosm of the archetype which exists in the macrocosm. To do this you must each be aware of the ‘type of light’ which you inherently are and with which you can work. You must then be ‘related’ to each other in such a way that a functioning whole results. You are differentiated as a result of synthesis and find that you are more deeply identified with your ‘self’ than in an undifferentiated state. A ‘self’ is truly found only in relationship to other selves as well as to the Self or the One Life.

In order for the whole to function as a unit it must first of all be related to the planetary seven – the archetypal energies of the planetary logoi who are themselves reflections of the seven rishis. This requires the procedure called ‘the surrender of the centres’. The lesser pattern ‘surrenders’ to the greater and finds as a result that it is bought into closer alignment with its own true nature.

Now the ray and zodiacal energies must be bought into closer relationship. The seven centres in the etheric body must become transmitters for the 12 energies operating through the egoic lotus. This involves a ‘blending of lights’ – the light of the soul and the light of form. When these lights are blended and fused, the soul is fully manifesting – the ‘Word is made flesh’. Each chakra is fully expressing a particular combination of soul energies and therefore ‘organising’ matter upon the physical plane according to an archetypal pattern. The heart charka with its twelve petals holds a synthetic (in relationship to the soul) and therefore regulating point within the lower seven. Each of its petals must become a distributor of one of the 12 solar energies.

There are seven zodiacal signs that are more easily related to as they express upon the seven planes of the cosmic physical plane. The five creative hierarchies that express on the cosmic astral plane can only be related to via the wider group or ‘kingdom’ of which they are the ‘ensouling’ energy.

The relationship therefore of the seven to the five concerns the relationship of the form to its fivefold ensouling ‘life’. Kingdoms have ‘souls’. The human kingdom must be able to integrate the soul life of the three lower kingdoms. Think this through. Your own chakras have a relationship to one of other of the kingdoms and are thus affected by one or other of the five liberated hierarchies.

The relationship of the seven to five and the twelve is intimately connected with the science of triangles. My work with this group is ‘practical’ – it is applied occultism and so  would like to give you an instruction that will assist in making this relationship more tangible to you and also make of this field a better ‘transmitter’ for Hierarchy.

I would like you to use the following ray correspondences to the chakras to which each of you has been ‘assigned’

From EA 456

I would seek to have each of you deepen your conscious connection to the ray energy indicated and to the three zodiacal constellations that are connected to the ray in question. These are:

Ray One : Aries, Leo, Capricorn

Ray Two: Gemini, Virgo, Pisces

Ray Three: Cancer, Libra, Capricorn

Ray Four: Taurus, Scorpio, Sagittarius

Ray Five: Leo, Sagittarius, Aquarius

Ray Six: Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces

Ray Seven: Aries, Cancer, Capricorn

Do not try to work all these relationships through too carefully with the concrete mind. I ask you simply to establish a ‘relationship’ in consciousness with the particular kingdoms and ray energies given. Work with the higher aspects of the fifth ray rather than the lower. Experiment here with ‘light’ and therefore consciousness and not with ‘matter’. The lower mind will have the archetypal patterns revealed to it as a result.

By way of stimulating your intuitive approach I would like you to contemplate the following from the Old Commentary.

"In the chamber of death, the blue light of dawning day reveals the group of workers who seek to raise the dead.  Naught avail their efforts until they blend the five great forces of the Lord of Magic.  When thus they work as one, in unity complete the work is done they fuse the life-giving force; the dead are raised, and the work of building can proceed.  The temple can be glorified and the Word be uttered forth within a chamber of life-giving force and not of death.  Through death to life, from struggle in the dark to building in the light!  Such is the Plan.  Thus do we enter into life that is a death; pass onward through the door whose pillars twain stand there forever as a sign of strength and truth divine; thus do we enter quick within the tomb and die.  Thus are we raised again upon a Word divine, upon a fivefold sign, and—springing forth—we live' EP 264

Money

What I am attempting to do with this group is to organize matter via the mind of the group members into patterns which reflect an archetypal pattern. This will aid in the precipitation or externalization of that pattern in the three worlds.

Similarly, you are involved in a manifestation process which seeks to externalize your soul pattern upon the concrete physical plane. At a certain stage in the manifestation process the energy patterns which have conditioned the etheric must draw to themselves the outer forms.

On the physical plane, the response of the form to the etheric pattern comes under the Law of Attraction and the resultant flow of energy can be seen by those able as the flow of money. This is why I have said that money is concretized prana.

Today I want you to consider the following question. What is the equivalent of money on the cosmic physical plane? In considering this question I would like to make a few statements:  

With regard to the five planes of evolution:

The Law of Synthesis is particularly active on the atmic plane. It governs the relationship of the ashrams to the Purpose as held by the Master at the centre.

The Law of Attraction governs the relationships within the ashram and between inner and outer groups. Its power is wielded from the buddhic plane

The Law of Economy governs the relationship between groups upon the outer plane. It is particularly active upon the mental plane.

Money has a peculiar link with the sacral fires or with the fires of desire as they express through the etheric body. An equivalent process occurs on the mental plane and upon the atmic plane. When these three processes are realised as part of a single process then alignment takes place, light supernal breaks forth and the organization of the physical plane reflects the Purpose held upon the atmic plane via the mental plane as the intermediary and link.

Taking the above into consideration I would like each of you to clearly formulate an answer to the question I have proposed. This process itself will be very helpful to the group as a whole in understanding the work I seek to accomplish through it as a centre within my ashram.

Now I would like to give you some information about the global financial situation. You are currently in Switzerland – the reservoir of a large amount of the world’s financial resources. Consider the information I gave you about the serpent energy being the subconscious life energy of the soul. Similarly we might think of the vast amounts of money that are tied up in as yet unsolarised matter below the penetration of soul consciousness as a form of kundalini energy. Kundalini rises when it is realized as not separate from the soul. It is realized as spirit in form and no longer suppressed when the indwelling consciousness has matured enough to make this identification. Similarly the financial reservoirs of the world must be realized by disciples and initiates as life energy and therefore spiritual regardless of the consciousness that is involved – this realization will result in their upliftment or raising into the hands of Hierarchy. It is easier for Spirit to work through matter that is either completely unsolarised or completely solarised. Semi consciousness results in a necessary duality between the inherent pull of the intelligent life of matter (or the instinctual impulse) and the spiritual impulse.

If you think this all through you will see the necessity of groups of disciples who have completely solarised their own systems ( in other words taken the third degree ) wielding the energy of Will to release the life energy and therefore money from those groups who have almost achieved complete unsolarisation. What do I mean by this? The aspects of the personality life that seek to remain separate must hide their motivations and their resources from the unifying light of the soul both in the individual and planetary sense. Secrecy and darkness is common to both the super conscious as well as subconscious life. Penetration into the former allows and is a prerequisite for penetration into the latter.

What we are about to see on a global scale is a relaundering of money. This can take place through a process of spiritual reorientation when it is realized that that which has been most deeply hidden away in form is the energetic equivalent  (although with reversed polarity) of that which awaits us on the heights. Indeed it is the energy which will allow the Purpose to manifest. Watch and see. Groups who work with consciousness gradually educate matter about spirit and thus solarise it. Groups who work with the Will use the polarity of spirit and matter to produce results in consciousness. Think this through as it relates to the method of individualization which will be used in the next system and some light may come on the type of work I eventually have in mind for this group.

Energy Transmission

Initiation is a result of the transmission of energy into a prepared group field. My primary purpose for this experiment is to make of you distributors, not only of information about initiation but of initiation itself. I seek to fashion of you a 'rod of initiation'. The structure of this rod is built not with form but with mental matter.

Through these transmissions I am seeking to assist in the building of thoughtforms which reflect higher archetypal patterns. When these thoughtforms and relationships become stable and consistent they can be used as a luminous structure through which the energy of initiation can flow. You are by no means the only group I am working with in this way. Masonry, for example is specifically designed to serve in this fashion.

I have encouraged you to think of yourselves as a chakra within a group entity and to build relationships within that field based on rayological and astrological realities. This will eventually create a small reflection in the microcosm that through resonance can transmit the macrocosmic energies within the three worlds. The result will be the readjustment of form, the reorientation of consciousness and the eventual resurrection of the soul.

Put simply, through the group I seek to awaken souls - to raise the dead to Life.

The energy I seek to wield through you is 'light supernal' a synthetic light that operates in a sevenfold manner. Each of you will become a point of transmission for an aspect of this sevenfold energy. You will utilises or wield this aspect in your own projects and with other individuals. Together you will wield the energy as a synthetic whole and can apply this to the specific project of Shamballa School and when working with other groups.

The transmission of this energy can happen both in the individual and in the group sense should happen in three ways.

1. Invocation - a call from another soul, individual or group is perceived and responded to at soul level.

2. Radiation - This is non directional and is a result of the stimulation of the group soul aura and it’s becoming radioactive

3. Evocational - your consciousness as a group is evoked by me, your Master. I call your attention so that I am able to wield energy through the group. This is actually the fastest form of teaching and forms the core of the third phase of my educational presentation - summed up in the phrase “an initiate (group) knows because he works"

You are not to attempt to direct this energy in any ways yourselves particularly through the conceptual formulation of ideas about where it is needed etc. Respond to a perceived inner call, allow it to be directed through you or simply radiate it in all directions through the soul field.

It is important to remember that you are not distributing soul energy to personalities either group or individual. You are distributing the energy of Life - the third aspect of the monad to groups and individuals who are in soul crises and seeking more power to externalise themselves in service.

Much of this work is subjective - it involves the divine circulatory flow understood esoterically. A call for greater aid is responded to with higher energies distributed through resonant chakra points. This may or may not be accompanied by communication either written or oral.

It might help to think of my work through you in two octaves.

One is mercury - the messenger, the communicator of the teachings via  the iintuition to the receptive and open mind.

The higher octave is Uranus - the flashing forth of the energy of Life, beyond comprehension, beyond understanding, timeless, spaceless, the ever present foundation of the world.

I want you to consider the work of making yourselves available and fit for the distribution of energy as your highest priority - higher then the construction and maintenance of any form in the three worlds. I did not say only priority but highest priority. At least part of the Wednesday meditation time should be spent linked as a group simply making yourselves available for transmission. Ideally the three forms of distribution should take place at three different times during the week.

Wednesday should be primarily the response to invocation - the conscious distribution of energy.

Thursday should emphasise group radiation and Sunday the group should be surrendered to be used according to the Will of Hierarchy,  channelled primarily via the Master Morya.

When I am using the group as a field for transmission it is important to resist trying to control the process in any way - this is why I have emphasised the 'surrendered' will. It may in time be possible to develop some awareness of where the energy is flowing to. In the early stages however, the dual process of awareness is not functioning and because of the age old bias towards form I ask you to keep your awareness directionally towards me as your central synthetic point and source during these periods of transmission training.

A Source of Strength

There is a line from the Mantram of a Disciple that has particular reference to the

Work I have in mind for this group. “I am a source of strength enabling them to stand”

Souls, individual and group, emit a peculiar ‘note’ when they come under great tension. It is this note that the group must train itself to listen for and respond to. It is not a note of personality distress but of the central or middle principle as it seeks at all costs to hold ‘heaven and earth’ together. The personality is primarily concerned with purifying itself so that it can serve as a fitting vehicle for soul expression. The soul has an entirely different form of yoga to undergo – it must unite two widely divergent (in consciousness) streams and this through the sacrifice of its own substance, the solar life. When the tension gets too great the soul must choose to primarily align with one or the other pole or become torn in two and this is how it learns through incarnational experience.

It is the dedication of the personality which brings forth the aid of the soul. It is the extreme tension of the soul in service – the refusal to leave the battle field – the willingness to be torn apart or crucified if necessary, which calls forth the monad.

This group can aid in the distribution of flashes of monadic energy to souls under tension. That is essentially what the process of initiation is after the second degree. It is the soul which is initiated via the inflow of monadic energy. The resultant empowerment of the soul allows it to take full possession of its vehicle, the personality, at the third degree.

Seek to train yourselves to be receptive to the cry of a soul, individual or group, under tension. This facility is the higher octave of the common capacity to be aware of emotional stress and tension in the personality as the emotional body seeks to bridge between the mind and body. Psychology works with the latter, esoteric psychology with the former.

In an earlier transmission I have said that your only protection is to identify with Hierarchy. A group too, must lose itself to find itSELF and I would ask you, during your times of outward focus, to practise self forgetfulness as a group. During the time of inward focus I ask for your surrender and during times of outward focus I ask for your selfforgetfulness. Both these disciplines result in a decrease of self consciousness or the ahamkara principle and therefore a greater liberation of the essential nature of the soul from its mental sheath or identity construction.

One of the energies of Shamballa is ‘organisation’ esoterically understood, and this energy is potently at work behind the scenes bringing soul groups into functional relationship with each other. The ‘body of Christ’ is being organised. The Masters are working to create productive links between their various different groups as the energy of synthesis enters more powerfully. This is a synthesis in consciousness which results in differentiation of function. Think this through carefully because it is a key thought for the Aquarian age.

When identity is developing it needs to be somewhat separative to define itself – this is individualisation. When identity is secure it can be surrendered back to the whole – this is identification via progressive initiation into greater and greater ‘wholes’. Identity is a vessel created out of solar substance in order for spirit or essential divinity to journey from one side of the river to the other. Once the crossing is made the vessel is no longer needed.

Seek as a group to merge your identity more fully with Hierarchy and give aid to the New Group of World Servers whenever you are ‘called’ to do so. This will increase your capacity to respond to invocation and result in a greater decentralisation. It will also result in a greater realisation of your ‘place’ and differentiated function within the body of Christ.
