s ritual also helps bridge the gap between the subconscious and conscious mind by quieting the ego voice. step 1 start off by finding a place where you will not be disturbed by anything or anyone. either sitting up with a good posture or lying down are acceptable positions for this ritual. step 2 begin by visualizing a ball of bright yellow energy. feel it as a warm, soothing, and comforting ball of energy. one important side note is not to think of this ball as just a simple ball of energy. think of it as the sun or the golden dawn rising up into the new day, bringing forth to the earth new life, vitality, and light. feel this ball slowly enveloping your feet. feel its warmth beginning to relax your feet, taking away all tension and aches from all parts of your feet. feel them completely

ple, of which the latter will be discussed in later lessons. the middle pillar ritual is used for a variety of things. it is used for the purpose of being able to raise magical energy at will by an occultist, as already described. the same energies are used in rituals for basic as well as advanced healing. this may be helpful to those who are lethargic because it will give the person a quick dose of energy. in referring to meditation, it aids in the ability to raise the mind to the higher planes as well as channeling the same energies down into the material universe, our body if you will. the ritual of the middle pillar obtained its name by the tree of life. it stands between the pillars of severity and mercy. in the perspective of applying the middle pillar to the microcosm, man, it means

hether working alone or in a group, as you build up the power, breathe in pure white light and exhale and project your chosen colour, seeing it become ever more vibrant and faster-moving as the intensity increases. after you have been practising magick for a while, you will notice that the cone of colour builds up quite spontaneously, with no apparent effort. it has also been described as a cloud of energy. at the point when the climax is reached, comes the release of power. note that for some people the cone concept interferes with their own natural magical abilities- some of the most skilled witches and healers see circles of light, shimmering golden beams or rainbows with their psychic eye. some see nothing at all, but instead feel power pushing their feet almost off the ground. growth

ndences colour is of great significance, both in healing and magick, and colour symbolism is used frequently with candles, and also with crystals, flowers, foods and coloured water, as a way of focusing on and activating the different qualities inherent in the colours. white in magic, white represents light, the life force and clear vision and so is helpful where a new beginning or a sudden burst of energy and enthusiasm is needed. white is a good colour for work involving rites of passage, especially for birth, marriage and welcoming new family members by marriage or adoption. use white also for protective magick, for replacing darkness with light, in meditation, for goddessfocused rituals, for increasing spiritual awareness and contact with spirit guides, angels and the higher self. whit

ALEISTER CROWLEY EIGHT LECTURES ON YOGA

ALICE A BAILEY01 THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF THE ATOM

at which deals with the evolution of substance, with the study of the atom, and the nature of atomic matter. next week we will touch upon that. science has much to tell us about the evolution of the atom, and has wandered a long way during the past fifty years from the standpoint of the last century. then the atom was regarded as an indivisible unit of substance; now it is looked upon as a centre of energy, or electric force. from the evolution of substance we are led very naturally to the evolution of forms, or of congeries of atoms, and there will then open up to us the- 5- the consciousness of the atom copyright 1998 lucis trust interesting consideration of forms other than the purely material, forms existing in subtler substance, such as forms of thought, and the racial forms, and the

n be seen as the tendency to sacrifice, for a man then chooses a particular line of action in order to benefit the group to which he belongs, and rejects that which is purely selfish. we might finally define evolution as ordered change and constant mutation. it demonstrates in the ceaseless activity of the unit or the atom, the interaction between groups, and the endless play of one force or type of energy upon another. we have seen that evolution, whether it is of matter, of intelligence, of consciousness, or of spirit, consists in an ever-increasing power to respond to vibration, that it progresses through constant change, by the practice of a selective policy or the use of the discriminative faculty, and by the method of cyclic development or repetition. the stages which distinguish the

tivity itself. but when radium, and the other radio-active substances, had been discovered, an entirely new aspect of the situation had to be faced. it became apparent that what was considered the ultimate particle was not so at all. as you now have the definition of the atom (i am quoting from the standard dictionary) it is "an atom is a centre of force, a phase of electrical phenomena, a centre of energy, active through its own internal make-up, and giving off energy or heat or radiation" therefore, an atom is (as lord kelvin in 1867 thought it would ultimately turn out to be) a "vortex ring" or centre of force, and not a particle of what we understand as tangible substance. this ultimate particle of matter is now demonstrated to be composed of a positive nucleus of energy, surrounded ju

futile. all that the wise man can do just now is to reserve his opinion, ascertain for himself what appeals to him as truth, and endeavour then to synthesise that particular aspect of universal truth with that aspect which has been accepted by his brother. the atom, then can be predicated as resolving itself into electrons, and can be expressed in terms of force or energy. when you have a centre of energy or activity you are involved in a dual concept; you have that which is the cause of movement or energy, and that which it energises or actuates. this brings us directly into the field of psychology, because energy or force is ever regarded as a quality, and where you have a quality you are really considering the field of psychic phenomena. there are certain terms in use when considering

hing which you and i can see and touch and handle. the word "substance" itself means that which "stands under" or which lies back of things. all, therefore, that we can predicate in connection with the ether of space is that it is the medium in which energy or force- 12- the consciousness of the atom copyright 1998 lucis trust functions, or makes itself felt. when we are talking in these lectures of energy and force, and of matter and substance, we can separate them in our minds thus: when we speak about energy and substance we are considering that which is as yet intangible, and we use force in connection with matter when dealing with that aspect of the objective which our scientists are definitely studying. substance is the ether in one of its many grades, and is that which lies back of

the fifth kingdom is that of the particular type of force which our own planetary logos embodies. the wise student will ponder on this statement, for it holds the clue to much that may be seen in the world today. the secret of synthesis has been lost, and only when men again get back the knowledge which was theirs in earlier cycles (having been mercifully withdrawn in atlantean days) of the type of energy which our scheme should be demonstrating, will the world problems adjust themselves, and the world rhythm be stabilised. this cannot be as yet, for this knowledge is of a dangerous kind, and at present the race as a whole is not group conscious, and therefore cannot be trusted to work, think, plan, and act for the group. man is as yet too selfish, but there is no cause for discouragement

d their correlation with that which may be new to some students, comes an eventual synthetic grasp of the great plan, and a wise uniform realisation as to the work of that great group of liberated souls who, in utter self-abnegation, stand silently behind the world panorama. through the power of their will, the strength of their meditations, the wisdom of their plans, and the scientific knowledge of energy which is theirs, they direct those force currents, and control those form-building agencies which produce all that is seen and unseen, movable and immovable in the sphere of creation within the three worlds. this, coupled to their vast experience, is what fits them to be the agents for the distribution of the energy of the planetary logos. as has already been stated, at the head of affai

r solar system will see the will aspect come to fruition, as love will mature in this. standing around the lord of the world, but withdrawn and esoteric, are three more kumaras, who make the seven of planetary manifestation. their work is to us necessarily obscure. the three exoteric buddhas, or kumaras, are the sumtotal of activity or planetary energy, and the three esoteric kumaras embody types of energy which as yet are not in full demonstration upon- 24- initiation, human and solar copyright 1998 lucis trust our planet. each of these six kumaras is a reflection of, and the distributing agent for, the energy and force of one of the six other planetary logoi, the remaining six spirits before the throne. sanat kumara alone, in this scheme, is self-sustaining and self-sufficient, being the

one, in this scheme, is self-sustaining and self-sufficient, being the physical incarnation of one of the planetary logoi, which one it is not permissible to state, as this fact is one of the secrets of initiation. through each of them passes the life force of one of the six rays, and in considering them one might sum up their work and position as follows: 1. they each embody one of the six types of energy, with the lord of the world as the synthesiser and the embodier of the perfect seventh type, our planetary type. 2. they are each distinguished by one of the six colours, with the lord of the world showing forth the full planetary colour, these six being subsidiary. 3. their work is therefore concerned, not only with force distribution, but with the passing into our scheme from other pla

s expression is caused by the blending of two divine aspects through the influence of a third, and produces the manifestation which we call a form, starting it upon its evolutionary cycle in time and space. thus is form brought to the point where it is an adequate medium for the demonstration of the nature of that which we call god. fourthly, to give practical information anent those focal points of energy which are found in the etheric bodies of the solar logos, the macrocosm, and of man, the microcosm. as the etheric substratum which is the true substance underlying every tangible form is understood, certain great revolutions will be brought about in the domains of science, of medicine and of chemistry. the study of medicine, for instance, will eventually be taken up from a new angle, an

tending to a more balanced view, and it is hoped that this treatise may form part of the process through which equilibrium is attained. in studying this treatise the student is asked to bear in mind certain things: a. that in dealing with these subjects we are concerned with the essence of that which is objective, with the subjective side of manifestation, and with the consideration of force and of energy. it is well nigh impossible to reduce such concepts to concrete formulas and to express them in such a way that they can be easily apprehended by the average man. b. that as we use words and phrases and speak in terms of modern language the whole subject necessarily becomes limited and dwarfed, and much of the truth is thereby lost. c. that all that is in this treatise is offered in no d

rust necessitate some preliminary technicalities which may seem at first perusal to be somewhat abstruse and complicated but which, when meditated upon and studied, may eventually prove illuminating and of an elucidating nature, and which also, when the mind has familiarised itself with some of the details, may come to be regarded as providing a logical hypothesis concerning the nature and origin of energy. we have elsewhere, in an earlier book, touched somewhat upon this matter, but we desire to recapitulate and in so doing to enlarge, thus laying down a broad foundation upon which the subject matter can be built up, and providing a general outline which will serve to show the limits of our discussion. let us, therefore, look at the subject macrocosmically and then trace the correspondenc

nd. saturn corresponds to the throat centre, or to the creative activity of the third aspect. as evolution proceeds, the other centres attain a more pronounced vibration and the fire (circulating triangularly) will bring them into greater prominence; the two above mentioned, however, are of prime importance at this time. these two, with the lesser triangle of our chain, constitute the focal point of energy viewed from our planetary standpoint. in addition to these some hints in connection with the microcosmic and macrocosmic centres, we might here give the cosmic correspondences at which it is possible to hint. the cosmos. our solar system, with the pleiades and one of the stars of the great bear, form a cosmic triangle, or an aggregation of three centres in the body of him of whom naught

which i referred above. the subject of the vital body, its relation to this universal energy, and its seven points of contact with the physical organism are covered in my book, the soul and its mechanism, and will not be enlarged upon here, beyond quoting one paragraph "behind the objective body lies a subjective form constituted of etheric matter, and acting as a conductor of the life principle of energy, or prana. this life principle is the force aspect of the soul, and through the medium of the etheric body the soul animates the form, gives it its peculiar qualities and attributes, impresses upon it its desires and, eventually, directs it through the activity of the mind. through the medium of the brain the soul galvanizes the body into conscious (directed) activity and through the med

d transmits (as we shall see later) soul knowledge to the physical brain; the emotional nature is purified and simply reflects the love nature of the soul, as the mind reflects the purposes of god. thus, the hitherto disorganized and separative aspects of the human being are synthesized and unified and brought into harmonious relation with each other and with the soul, their creator, their source of energy, and their motivating power. this science of union involves the disciplining of the life, and an experimental system of co-ordination. its method is that of focussed attention, of mind control, or of meditation, and is a mode of development whereby we effect union with the soul, and become aware of inner states of consciousness. this is summed up for us in the familiar words of browning

clically, apparent. ii. the second postulate grows out of the first and states that the one life, manifesting through matter, produces a third factor which is consciousness. this consciousness, which is the result of the union of the two poles of spirit and matter is the soul of all things; it permeates all substance or objective energy; it underlies all forms, whether it be the form of that unit of energy which we call an atom, or the form of man, a planet, or a solar system. this is the theory of self-determination or the teaching that all the lives of which the one life is formed, in their sphere and in their state of being, become, so to speak, grounded in matter and assume forms whereby their peculiar specific state of consciousness may be realised and their vibration stabilised; thus

ife as man includes in his physical expression such living organisms as his heart or brain. when this takes place, he begins to comprehend the significance of spirit, the one life back of all forms, the central energy which is the cause of all manifestation. the first reaction of the average student on reading the above is to think immediately of the body nature as it expresses some type or other of energy. thus the duality is the thing noted, and that which employs the thing is present in his mind. yet one of the main necessities before occult aspirants at this time is to endeavour to think in terms of the one reality which is energy itself and nothing else. therefore, it is of value to emphasise in our discussion of this abstruse subject, the fact that spirit and energy are synonymous te

pure reason, and through the correct functioning of the intuition these problems can be solved and these questions answered. their solution is one of the ordinary revelations and attainments of initiation. the only true biologists are initiates of the mysteries, for they have an understanding of life and its purpose and are so identified with the life principle that they think and speak in terms of energy and its effects, and all their activities in connection with the work of the planetary hierarchy are based on a few fundamental formulas which concern life as it makes itself felt through its three differentiations or aspects: energy, force, matter. it should be noted here, that only as a man understands himself can he arrive at an understanding of that which is the sum total that we cal

ied knowledge are not yet theirs. many are conscious of consciousness, and are aware of the kingdom of the soul and of an occasional reaction to impression from that kingdom, but they are not yet consciousness itself, nor so identified with the soul that consciousness of all else drops away. to achieve that is their aim and objective. let me also remind you that the career of the monad (an aspect of energy found on one or other of the three major rays) can be roughly divided into three parts, leading to a fourth: 1. a lower realisation of a unity which is the unit of the form nature. in this unity, the soul is so closely identified with the matter aspect that it sees no distinction, but is the form, and knows not itself as soul. this often reaches its height in some life of full personalit

pproach to man through an understanding of the energies, seven in number, with their forty-nine differentiations, which animate him and make him what he is. later, as we take up each ray type, we shall subject man to a close analysis and study his reactions in these three directions. these seven rays are the seven streams of force issuing from a central energy after (in point of time) that vortex of energy had been set up. spirit and matter became mutually interactive and the form or appearance of the solar system began its process of becoming, a process leading to an eventual being. this idea is ancient and true. we find reference to the seven aeons and the seven emanations and to the life and nature of the seven "spirits which are before the throne of god" in the writings of plato and of

ithin the entire solar system constitute the heart and brain of the solar logos. intelligent activity and love are the outstanding characteristics of a developed son of god, whilst their lower reflections sex and desire are the characteristics of the average man and the undeveloped sons of god. these seven living qualified emanations from the central vortex of force are composed of untold myriads of energy units which are inherently and innately aspects of life, endowed with quality and capable of appearance. below the human, the combination of these three produces conscious response to the environment, regarding the environment as composed of the sum total of all lives, qualities and appearances, the synthesis of the seven rays or emanations of the deity. they produce in the human kingdom


ALICE A BAILEY10 FROM BETHLEHEM TO CALVARY

nce seen and with open eyes beheld the vision of divinity, what can we do? in this question our problem is voiced. what is the next step, the immediate duty of the man who knows that, in himself, the new birth has not yet taken place, but who feels in himself a readiness to go up to bethlehem, from galilee, via nazareth? it entails, in the first place, effort. it means initiative, the expenditure of energy, the overcoming of inertia, and the will to exert oneself so that the initial journey can be taken. it means listening for and obeying the insistent demand of the soul for a nearer approach to god and a fuller expression of divinity; and yet "every individual is at some point torn between the splendid urge to go on towards understanding, and the craving to go back to safety."65 for there

mysterious "dweller on the threshold" to which bulwer lytton refers in zanoni. all of these four christ met and vanquished in the desert-experience. maya refers to the world of physical forces in which we dwell, and with this the first temptation concerned itself. modern science has told us that there is nothing visible or invisible which is not energy, and that every form is simply an aggregate of energy units in constant ceaseless motion, to which we have to adjust ourselves and in which we "live and move and have our being."39 such is the outer form of deity, and we are part of it. maya is vital in character, and we know little of its effect upon the physical plane (with all that that term connotes, and upon the human being "glamour" refers to the world of emotional being and of desire

process wherein the soul becomes so absorbed into that supreme reality and synthesis through identification that even the consciousness of the group fades out (except when deliberately recovered in the work of service. naught is then known save deity, no separation of any part, no lesser syntheses, and no divisions or differentiations. during these processes it might be stated that three streams of energy play upon the consciousness of the awakening man: a. the energy of matter itself, as it affects the consciousness of the inner spiritual man, who is using the form as a medium of expression- 11- a treatise on the seven rays- volume ii: esoteric psychology ii copyright 1998 lucis trust b. the energy of the soul itself, or of the solar angel, as that energy pours forth upon the vehicles an

know the relation between the initials and the disciple. questions as to identity will not be answered at any time. it is the subject matter of the teaching which is of importance and not the name of the disciple for what is said is applicable to all aspirants. one other reason might be mentioned here as indicative of the value of this book. in every case, the disciple is told what are the types of energy to which he most easily responds and upon which ray or divine emanation he finds himself. he, therefore, becomes aware of what constitutes his line of least resistance and where the major point of his life conflict is to be found. we are taught in the esoteric philosophy that seven great divine emanations, aeons or spirits (in whom we live and move and have our being) came forth from god

her in their own group, and the linking of the group with other groups occupied with special work within the ashram and the emergence (as a result of this) of a group and an ashramic consciousness are vital objectives. it is hoped that this will also eventuate in a telepathic interplay which will bring potent results and successful outer work. from these activities will emerge a group circulation of energy which will be of service in world salvage. each of you should remember that purity of body, control of the emotions and stability of mind are fundamental necessities and should be daily the attempted achievement. again and again, i come back to these prime character requirements and tiresome as the reiteration may be i urge upon you the cultivation of these qualities. i would like to rem

e three major faculties which the spiritual man can unfold; other faculties and developing capacities are only expansions of these three telepathic thought, receiving and transmitting; intuitive recognition of truth and its formulation into concepts by the mind, plus the later process of materialising that which has been intuited, the highest form of creative work; healing, with its understanding of energy and forces which will lead later to the rebirth of humanity. little by little, the picture of the possibilities and of the plan will unfold before you as your minds increase in sensitivity and your brains become more responsive to mental impulses. little by little, the disciples of the world will work at the reproduction on the physical plane of that which exists subjectively. little by

k. any new idea, especially if it embodies a purpose which can only materialise later when the plan is further perfected, fails naturally to meet with full comprehension in the early stages. i have said that these groups constitute an experiment. this experiment is fourfold in nature and a concise statement about it may prove helpful. i. they are an experiment in founding or starting focal points of energy in the human family through which certain energies can flow into the entire race of men. ii. they are an experiment in inaugurating certain new techniques in work and in modes of communication. i would point out that in these last three words are summed up the whole story. these groups are intended to facilitate interrelation or communication as follows: 1. there is a group of what we mi

nt aspects of the human being is entirely possible at varying stages of unfoldment. 2. another group is that of the trained observers. their objective is to see clearly through all events, through space and time by means of the cultivation and use of the intuition. they work very largely on the astral plane at the dissipation of glamour, thus bringing in illumination to mankind. thus another type of energy is brought into play, producing another type of inter-relation and communication. this communication is between the plane which is the plane of illumination and pure reason (the buddhic plane) and the plane of illusion and glamour, which is the astral plane. the trained observers are asked to remember that their great task is to dispel the world illusion through the pouring in of light


ALICE A BAILEY13 PROBLEMS OF HUMANITY

in the future neither of these planetary resources will be required? these are two instances of the fundamental changes which the use of atomic energy may make in future civilized living. two major problems will grow out of this discovery one immediate in nature and the other to be later developed. the first is that those whose large financial interests are bound up in products which the new type of energy will inevitably supersede will fight to the last ditch to prevent these new sources of wealth from benefiting others. secondly, there will be the steadily growing problem of the release of man power from the gruelling labour and the long hours today required in order to provide a living wage and the necessities of life. one is the problem of capital and the other is the problem of labour

nd it is one of the main agencies for peace. on account of this energy discovery capital and labour are each faced with a problem, and both these problems will reach a point of crisis in the next few years. money, the accumulation of financial assets and the cornering of the earth's resources for organizational exploitation will soon prove utterly useless and futile, provided that these resources of energy and the mode of their release remain in the hands of the people's chosen representatives and are not the secret possession of certain groups of powerful men or of any one nation. atomic energy belongs to humanity as a whole. the responsibility for its control must lie in the hands of the men of goodwill. they must control its destiny and make it available along constructive lines for the

esentatives and are not the secret possession of certain groups of powerful men or of any one nation. atomic energy belongs to humanity as a whole. the responsibility for its control must lie in the hands of the men of goodwill. they must control its destiny and make it available along constructive lines for the use of men everywhere. no one nation should own the formula or secret for the release of energy. until mankind, however, has moved forward in its understanding of right human relations, an international group of men of goodwill trusted and chosen by the people should safeguard these potencies. if this energy is released into constructive channels and if it remains safely guarded by the right men, the capitalistic system is doomed. the problem of labour will then be the major proble

lationship with god and for a closer spiritual relation to each other. this work, when rightly carried forward, will evoke response from the waiting hierarchy and from its head, the christ. through this response, the belief of the masses will gradually be charged into the conviction of the knowers. in this way the mass of men will be transformed and spiritualized, and the two great divine centres of energy or groups the hierarchy and humanity itself will begin to work in complete at-one-ment and unity. then the kingdom of god will in deed and in truth be functioning on earth. it will be obvious to you that this technique of invocation and evocation has its roots in past methods of human approach to deity. men have long used the method of prayer with important and deeply spiritual results

d functioning (even if only in a small degree) the potency of worship as an act of invocative approach to god will prove amazing and miraculous in its results. a response beyond man's deepest hopes will be evoked from christ and his group of workers. to these two great concepts underlying the new world religion approach to god, and invocation and evocation must be added the exceedingly modern one of energy as the basis of all life, all forms and all action and the medium of all relationships. the force of the mind in producing telepathic rapport has already been recognized by science; mental power is today registered as an energy, capable of contact, of recognition and of producing a reciprocal activity. prayer has always recognized this, without attempting to formulate the mode whereby ph


ALICE A BAILEY14 THE REAPPEARANCE OF THE CHRIST

ey are found in rich abundance everywhere. even the human soul is regarded as an intermediary between man and god; christ is believed by countless millions to act as the divine mediator between humanity and divinity. the whole system of spiritual revelation is based (and has always been based) on this doctrine of interdependence, of a planned and arranged conscious linking and of the transmission of energy from one aspect of divine manifestation to another from god in the "secret place of the most high" to the humblest human being, living and struggling and sorrowing on earth. everywhere this transmission is to be found "i am come that they may have life" says the christ, and the scriptures of the world are full of the intervention of some being, originating from some source higher than th

n was far greater than that. he saw still further into the meaning of divinity than had ever before seemed possible; the world of meaning and the world of phenomena faded out and esoterically speaking he lost his all. for the time being, neither the energy of the creative mind nor the energy of love were left to him. he was bereft of all that had made life bearable and full of meaning. a new type of energy became available the energy of life itself, imbued with purpose and actuated by intention. but it was new and unknown and- 12- the reappearance of the christ copyright 1998 lucis trust hitherto unrealised. for the first time, the relation of the will which had hitherto expressed itself in his life through love and the creative work of inaugurating the new dispensation became clear to him

ates a living bridge from the human kingdom to the kingdom of god, from the fourth kingdom in nature to the fifth. the christ is the custodian of this energy, but only temporarily and for the period of this human crisis. he can, because of this, stimulate the responsive factor in the hearts of men, enabling them to recognise and know him for who and what he is, when he reappears. this channelling of energy began at the close of the world war and is still going on; it is responsible for the trend towards betterment everywhere to be sensed, for the growth of the principle of sharing, and for the undeniable soundness of men's hearts and thinking today the soundness of the masses (when informed, far more than of their leaders. 3. as you are well aware, human history has been essentially the hi

king him as an individual what he is and determining his beliefs. and, secondly, it would bring to an end the attempt to impose a personally or nationally accepted ideology (political or religious) on other nations and persons. these are basic steps towards eventual peace and understanding and hence i emphasise them today. it will be of value next if i connect up the three major planetary centres of energy with the five rays which are today working towards the consummation of the plan for the race at this time. three of these streams of energy are working powerfully in the world at this time and two others are struggling for expression. of these latter, one is struggling towards domination and the other is struggling to hold on to that which it has so long controlled. this refers to the in

s time of urgency, from love of the life aspect and from understanding of the plan as well as from love of humanity, is sending forth this dynamic energy. it is form destroying and brings death to those material forms and organised bodies which hinder the free expression of the life of god, for they negate the new culture and render inactive the seeds of the coming civilisation. from this display of energy, unthinking humanity draws back in fear and likes it not. when full of personality hate and self-will, human beings seek often to turn this energy to their own selfish ends. if human beings (even the best of them) were not so undeveloped and so superficial in their judgments and their vision, they would be able to penetrate behind what is going on in the key countries in the world and se

y. shamballa is the directing centre for the hierarchy. little is really known of the will of god except by those whose function it is to interpret and express that will through love, intelligently applied. they know what the immediate purpose is and their major occupation is the working out of that will into manifestation. we have, therefore, three great centres and from them emanate three types of energy which are taking form as the three governing ideologies in the consciousness of the race. old ideologies still persist; subsidiary schools of thought are everywhere to be found; distorted interpretations and travesties of reality abound on every hand; on all sides the dead level of the people (the ignorant masses) is played upon by these energies and men become victims of the exponents o

tringency, the human consciousness is rapidly awakening from its long sleep. that great and fundamental reality which you call the "human state of mind" is just beginning to focus itself upon the things which matter and to express itself in a living fashion. that is the factor of moment and not the happenings in any particular country. and, i would remind you, all that is occurring is an evidence of energy and is expressive of force. that is the factor never to be forgotten. it is essential that you recognise them as existing. there is little that you, as individuals or as groups, can do about them beyond seeing to it that there is nothing in you which could make you unimportant as you may be a focal point for hate, separation, fear, pride and other characteristics which feed the fires whi

ent upon the clashing of the forces of the sixth and the seventh rays. as one ray passes out and another comes into manifestation and their impact upon the earth and upon all the forms in all the kingdoms of nature has reached the point where the two influences are equalised, then a definite point of crisis is reached. this is what has occurred today, and humanity, subjected to two types or forms of energy, is thrown "off centre" and hence the intense difficulty and tension of the present world period. the cause of this is not only the impact of the two types of energy, beating upon the forms of life with equal force, but also that the energy of humanity itself (which is a combination of the fourth and fifth rays) is swept into the conflict. to this must also be added the energy of the ani

itual realities, and when facility in discovering the reality behind any specific form has been gained, that very fact will indicate the awakening of the intuition. first ray people belong to what is called the "destroyer ray" and the power of the first aspect, which is the power to bring to an end, flows through them. they will have a tendency to destroy, as they build, through a wrong direction of energy, through over-emphasis of energy in some particular direction, or through misuse of energy in work with themselves or others. many first ray people have the tendency to pride themselves on this and hide behind a plea that, being upon the first ray, a destructive tendency is unavoidable. such is not the case. builders, such as second ray people always are, have to learn to destroy, when p

r and more average mental types of people succumb to the general field of illusion and of mass illusion. the mental plane manifests a different sort of distortion to that of the astral plane or the etheric. the faculty of discrimination which is being developed has produced sharper lines of demarcation, and instead of the dense fogs and mists of the astral plane or the swirling tides and currents of energy of the etheric plane, we have on the mental plane masses of sharply indicated thoughtforms of a particular quality and note and tone, around which are grouped lesser thoughtforms, created by those who respond to these forms, and to their note, quality and tone. similarities are then seen to exist which constitute channels or avenues for the magnetic drawing power of the more potent thoug

s them. ideas are also sensed in the interplay between disciples. frequently, when disciples meet together and thus stimulate each others' minds and centralise each others' focussed attention, they can unitedly make a contact with the world of ideas which would otherwise be impossible, and bring through the newer concepts into being. again, certain great ideas are to be found existing as currents of energy upon the mental plane, and can there be contacted and forced into embodiment through the trained attention of disciples. these currents of mental energy, coloured by a basic idea, are placed there by the hierarchy. when thus contacted and discovered, the neophyte is apt to regard his achievement in a personal way and attribute the idea to his own wisdom and power. you will note therefore

confronted or faced, but not immersed. it might almost be said that the astral body of a person comes into being as a part of the general world glamour; it is difficult for him to differentiate between his own astral body and the glamours which affect and sway and submerge him. his problem upon the mental plane is more clearly defined, even if it is equally difficult. 3. astral glamour is a form of energy and an energy of great potency, owing to three factors: a. it is of such an ancient rhythm, being inherent in astral substance itself, that it is most difficult for a human being to become aware of it or to understand it; it is the result of the age-long activity of human desire. b. it is a corporate part of a man's own energy nature, and therefore constitutes for him the line of least r

n to speculate upon these hypotheses with their present inadequate equipment and type of brain. nothing would be achieved and you would be none the wiser. b. causes initiated by humanity itself. slowly, step by step, humanity has created and intensified that glamorous condition of consciousness which we call the astral plane. all glamour is produced by the bringing together of one or more streams of energy which produce a temporary whirlpool of energies and, from the angle of man the onlooker and participator produce a condition of darkness, a state of bewilderment which makes clear choice and right discrimination difficult and, in the early stages, impossible. it creates an aura which is today of such a general nature and so all-enveloping that everybody is, figuratively speaking, immerse


ALICE A BAILEY17 TELEPATHY AND THE ETHERIC VEHICLE

um, every human being is basically related to every other expression of the divine life, minute or great. the function of the etheric body is to receive energy impulses and to be swept into activity by these impulses, or streams of force, emanating from some originating source or other. the etheric body is in reality naught but energy. it is composed of myriads of threads of force or tiny streams of energy, held in relation to the emotional and mental bodies and to the soul by their coordinating effect. these streams of energy, in their turn, have an effect on the physical body and swing it into activity of some kind or another, according to the nature and power of whatever type of energy may be dominating the etheric body at any particular time. through the etheric body, therefore, circul

eam of incoming energy is met, blocked and driven back whence it came; or, if the receiver is aware of this and seeks to stem the tide of his desire, he frequently succeeds in surrounding himself with a wall of inhibited desire through which naught can penetrate. ii. telepathic work telepathy and the allied powers will only be understood when the nature of force, of emanations and radiations, and of energy currents, is better grasped. this is rapidly coming about as science penetrates more deeply into the arcana of energies and begins to work as does the occultist in the world of forces. it should also be borne in mind that it is only as the centres employed are consciously used that we have that carefully directed work which will be fruitful of results. for instance, an emotional person

th individuals: 1. telepathic communication is a. between soul and mind. b. between soul, mind and brain. this is as far as interior individual development is concerned. 2. when it is found between individuals, telepathic communication is a. between soul and soul. b. between mind and mind. c. between solar plexus and solar plexus, and therefore purely emotional. d. between all these three aspects of energy simultaneously, in the case of very advanced people. 3. telepathic communication is also- 8- telepathy and the etheric vehicle copyright 1998 lucis trust a. between a master and his disciples or disciple. b. between a master and his group and a group or groups of sensitives and aspirants on the physical plane. c. between subjective and objective groups. d. between the occult hierarchy an

have above conveyed to you, i have given you a hint. iii. three types of telepathy let us now discuss in some detail the three types of telepathy enumerated above: instinctual telepathy, mental telepathy, and intuitional telepathy. these three produce differing modes of activity and tap (to use a familiar word) differing areas of communication. 1. instinctual telepathy is based upon those impacts of energy which come from one etheric body and make an impression upon another. the medium of communication employed is, as we have seen, the etheric substance of all bodies, which is necessarily one with the etheric substance of the planet. the area around the solar plexus (though not in direct relation to that centre as it exists as an instrument differentiated from all other instruments or cent

rehensive and intricate system of nerves is a vital or etheric body which is the counterpart and the true form of the outer and tangible phenomenal aspect. it is likewise the medium for the transmission of force to all parts of the human frame and the agent of the indwelling life and consciousness. it determines and conditions the physical body, for it is itself the repository and the transmitter of energy from the various subjective aspects of man and also from the environment in which man (both inner and outer man) finds himself. two other points should here be added. first: the individual etheric body is not an isolated and separated human vehicle but is, in a peculiar sense, an integral part of the etheric body of that entity which we have called the human family; this kingdom in natur

st unimportant planet. as he seeks to do this, he will discover for himself the signs of the essential divinity of man a divinity which is to be found in the infinite grasp of man's consciousness when illumined by the light of the soul and in his power to project his thought into the consciousness of those manifold lives whose "energetic movements" he must perforce share because his small modicum of energy is an integral part of theirs. there is one aspect of energy for which the modern astrologer makes very little allowance, and yet it is of paramount importance. this is the energy which emanates from or radiates from the earth itself. living as all human beings do upon the surface of the earth and being, therefore, projected into the etheric body of the planet (for the reason that "man s

al body and to the diseases of which it is a prey. secondly, i seek today to give you another of the laws of healing, as well as one of the rules for the healer. study these with care. law ii disease is the product of, and subject to, three influences. first, a man's past, wherein he pays the price of ancient error. second, his inheritance, wherein he shares with all mankind those tainted streams of energy which are of group origin. thirdly, he shares with all the natural forms that which the lord of life imposes on his body. these three influences are called "the ancient law of evil sharing" this must give place some day to that new law of ancient dominating good which lies behind all that god made. this law must be brought into activity by the spiritual will of man. what is a law, my bro

other of mine? the astral body is, for the majority of mankind, the major determining factor to be considered. it is an outstanding cause of ill health. the reason for this is that it has a potent and predisposing effect upon the vital and etheric body. the physical body is an automaton of whichever inner body is the strongest. when you remember that the vital body is the recipient of the streams of energy, and is in fact composed and formed of such streams, and that the physical body is driven into activity by these streams, it is apparent that that stream which is the most potent is the one which will control the action of the physical body upon the physical plane. there are, however, two streams of energy which must be considered in studying the factors leading to physical plane actions

plane. there are, however, two streams of energy which must be considered in studying the factors leading to physical plane actions. i would remind you in this connection that disease is an activity of the physical plane. 1. the stream of life itself, anchored in the heart, which determines the vitality of the man, his capacity for work, and the term of his existence. 2. the predominating stream of energy coming from the astral, mental or soul bodies. these control his expression upon the physical plane. with the masses of people throughout the world, and those whom we call the vast unthinking public, the dominating factors are the stream of life and the stream of astral or desire energy. this can be either of a low or medium calibre. with the thinking public, the dominating factors are t

tive workers, who are conscious of the inspiration and the spiritual contact which indicates a beginning of the inflow of soul energy. with the disciples of the world, we find a group of men and women coming under the control of soul energy, whilst the other three energies are being increasingly subordinated to this higher type of control. it should be borne in mind that there are two other types of energy with which to reckon, when considering intelligent man. 1. the energy which is composed of the fused and blended forces of a coordinated personality. 2. the energy of the physical plane itself, which is finally identified by the aspirant or disciple, and becomes so utterly negated that eventually it constitutes one of the major factors in the release of the centres. finally the time come

that which is not phenomenal, has already (through the evolutionary process) reached a point of development wherein some human beings can follow along this path from the physical consciousness to the emotional, and from the emotional to the mental. that part of the work is already accomplished in many thousands of cases and what is now required is facility and right use of this power. this thread of energy, coloured by conscious sentient response, is later coloured by the discriminating consciousness of the mind, and this produces that inner integration which makes man eventually an efficient thinking being. at first, this thread is used purely for lower selfish interests; it steadily gets stronger and more potent as time goes on, until it is a definite, clear, strong thread reaching from

r aspect of the antahkarana is completed, and the first great conscious unity is consummated. the man is an integrated, conscious, living personality. the thread of continuity between the three lower aspects of the man is established and can be used. it stretches, if such a term can be used (my intent being entirely pictorial, from the centre of the head to the mind, which is in its turn a centre of energy in the world of thought. at the same time, this antahkarana is interwoven with the thread of life or the sutratma which emerges from the heart centre. the objective of evolution in form is now relatively complete. when this stage has been reached, the sensitive feeling-out into the environing universe still continues. man weaves a thread which is like the thread the spider weaves so amaz

has to be done in the consciousness aspect, and concerns the continuity of man's awareness of life in all his various aspects. the energy which is used in connecting, in consciousness, the physical man and the astral body is focussed in the solar plexus. speaking in symbolical terms, many today are carrying that bridge forward and linking the mind with the two aspects already linked. this thread of energy emanates from, or is anchored in, the head. a few people are steadily linking the soul and the mind, which in its turn is linked with the other two aspects. the soul energy, when linked with the other threads, has its anchor in the heart. a very few people (the initiates of the world) having effected all the lower syntheses, are now occupied with bringing about a still higher union with

ins connecting threads, and thus bridges and makes contact with his environment, thereby gaining experience and sustenance. the spider symbol is often used in the ancient occult books and the scriptures of india in connection with this activity of the human being. the threads which man creates are triple and with the two basic threads which have been created by the soul, constitute the five types of energy which make man a conscious human being. the triple threads created by man are anchored in the solar plexus, the head and the heart. when the astral body and the mind- 26- education in the new age copyright 1998 lucis trust nature are beginning to function as a unit, and the soul also is consciously connected (do not forget that it is always unconsciously linked, an extension of this five

on of the seven centres in the body will be the objective of the meditation, basing the work upon the occult maxim that "energy follows thought" we have started upon one formula which relates the heart, the higher head centre, and the solar plexus. b. the subsequent relation of the centres in any one individual to the remainder of the group members, regarding the centres as radiating transmitters of energy to the centres of the other group members. this will result in the forming of seven great centres of energy which will constitute the group centres, fed and enlightened by the energy transmitted by each individual- 13- discipleship in the new age- volume ii copyright 1998 lucis trust c. the fusion (consciously undertaken) of the individual soul with the group soul and consequently a cons

a process of appropriation. a study of these things- 15- discipleship in the new age- volume ii copyright 1998 lucis trust will bring to our attention the entire subject of the centres and this we will approach from the angle of invocation and evocation. the teaching upon the etheric body naturally follows upon any instructions which i may give anent telepathic communication and the manipulation of energy by the initiate-disciple, via the centres, via the group centres and when of very high development and initiate degree via the planetary centres. i have not yet given you much on this theme but there is much that will later be said. i shall, however, have to deal with it only briefly and tentatively, as the majority of aspirants and disciples are not yet ready for this particular study

e inner ashram and to each other. he looks for the constancy of the interplay, for the brilliance of the group light, as a whole, and for its emanatory influence, its radiation and its magnetic effect in the world. changes constantly occur. in the past, the lines of force between the group and myself were strong, and the relationship between the group members was definitely weak. today, the lines of energy, carried by thought and directed towards me, are steady but not so brilliantly fluctuating; the lines between the group members are strengthened by mental determination, but not by emotional or embryonic love. this indicates, on the whole, improvement, because the tide of devotion, poured out to me was not something which guaranteed to me that the group had staying power. there is a more

significant. it was used twice in japan, thereby disrupting the etheric web in what you erroneously call the far east; it was used once in what is also universally called the far west, and each time a great area of disruption was formed which will have future potent, and at present unsuspected, results. the formation of the triangles of light and of goodwill[page 62] essentially the manipulation of energy into a desired thought pattern has a definite relation to this area of disruption. it will in due time be found that the japanese people, with their peculiar knowledge of thought power (used along wrong lines in the war period, will respond more intelligently to this type of work than many of the western peoples. an effort should therefore be made to reach the japanese along the lines of

and synchronized with their- 3- the externalisation of the hierarchy copyright 1998 lucis trust minds, and secondly, it should be remembered that the energy which flows through these focal points of the divine will will have a dual effect and be destructive as well as constructive, according to the quality of the bodies which react to it. different types of men respond distinctively to any inflow of energy, and a tremendous psychic stimulation is at this time going on, with results both divinely beneficent and sadly destructive. it might be added also that certain astrological relationships between the constellations are releasing new types of force which are playing through our solar system and on to our planet and thereby making possible developments hitherto frustrated in expression, an

the earth, and that the effect is a cause of grave concern to all the masters, their disciples and workers. the difficulty can, in the main, be traced back to the overstimulation and the undue strain placed upon the mechanism of the bodies, which the world of souls (in physical incarnation) have to employ as they seek to manifest on the physical plane and so respond to their environment. the flow of energy, pouring through from the astral plane and (in a lesser degree) from the lower mental plane, is brought in contact with bodies that are unresponsive at first, and over-responsive later; it pours into brain cells which, from lack of use, are unaccustomed to the powerful rhythm imposed upon them; and humanity's equipment of knowledge is so poor that the majority have- 4- the externalisatio

increasing for the next thirty years, bringing assurance of immortality and a fresh revelation of the divine potencies in the human being. thus is the new age dawning. access to levels of inspiration, hitherto untouched, has been facilitated. the stimulation of the higher faculties (and this on a large scale) is now possible, and the coordination of the personality with the soul and the right use of energy can go forward with renewed understanding and enterprise. ever the race is to the strong, and always the many are called and the few chosen. this is the occult law. we are now in a period of tremendous spiritual potency and of opportunity to all upon the probationary path and the path of discipleship. it is the hour wherein a clarion call goes forth to man to be of good cheer and of good

ance, proved technique, and spiritual expression. i appeal to such movements as the psychical research societies in the- 9- the externalisation of the hierarchy copyright 1998 lucis trust world and the vast spiritualistic movement to lay the emphasis on divine expression and not so much on phenomena; let them approach the subject from the angle of service and carry their researches into the realm of energy, and cease to pander so much to the public. the opportunity offered them is great and the need of their work is vital. the service rendered has been real and essential, but if these movements are to avail themselves of the coming inflow of spiritual energy, they must shift their attention into the realm of true values. the training of the intellect and the presenting to the world of a gr

the light of the soul. this process of ordered meditation, when carried forward over a period of years and supplemented by meditative living and one-pointed service, will successfully arouse the entire system, and bring the lower man under the influence and control of the spiritual man; it will awaken also the centres of force in the etheric body and stimulate into activity that mysterious stream of energy which sleeps at the base of the spinal column. when this process is carried forward with care and due safeguards, and under direction, and when the process is spread over a long period of time there is little risk of danger, and the awakening will take place normally and under the law of being itself. if, however, the tuning up and awakening is forced, or is brought about by exercises of

g your life work and making other people live their lives to make yours work better. this book will give you the means to do just that and i hope it will give you a few laughs along the way. so get to work and start reading. you have a lot to do and the new millenium is already here. psychic stuff by now you probably know that psychic powers, the stuff upon which psionics is based, involve a type of energy. now there is no real common name for that energy yet, but there are a quite a few people who have come up with different names for what is probably the same thing. and there is absolutely nothing new about this. people have been trying to come up with a word for this stuff since they first started thinking about it, about the time that ugh the caveman knew that his brother-in-law was go

ide it because it was two months before he got it back the last time. this energy is stuff of creation itself. it is the stuff of which the gods are made and ultimately everything else in the cosmos. we are used to working with energy all the time. we work with it when we heat our homes or turn on a light. remember years ago when some idiots actually thought we might run out of it? so the concept of energy is not a difficult one for modern folks. it is when we try to talk about the psychic energies that we get into some real problems. so let us posit that the energy exists. it had better or i have just wasted some very good writing. by the fact of existing it has certain properties, for example it is a property of light that it causes heat when it hits something. the properties of this ene

transmit a psychic message, you transmit it to the nervous system of the receiver by means of the etheric connections. there is one final and real super important property of this energy to remember. it cannot die. energy does not die. it may be transformed, but it does not die. it is always there in one form or another. it never ceases to exist. now, let us consider this. if your body is made up of energy, what are your thoughts made of? is it such a great leap to think that they have their origin in energy? if your thoughts begin in your mind, must that not too exist as energy in its original form? so it logically follows that if energy is eternal and your mind is energy, is not then your mind eternal as well? if your mind is eternal, is not then the minds and the thoughts and the knowle

reality, the etheric body is something more or less like light when you break it up with a prism, before you put the prism into your hieronymus machine. there are many different wavelengths combining to make up the whole. now if you work with light, you can use colored filters to isolate a particular set of wavelengths. the same is true with radionics. when you use the machines, you isolate bands of energy in the etheric body. by means of this capacity for isolating things, we can discover many useful things. for example, someone hits his thumb with a hammer. he feels the pain of the thumb, anger at himself for hitting himself in the first place and as the thumb swells it produces another reaction. now all these things show up in the etheric body, and by means of a properly tuned radionic

t produces another reaction. now all these things show up in the etheric body, and by means of a properly tuned radionic device we can isolate each reaction. we can isolate these things because they show up in the etheric body. the term for them is "wave-form" some psychics would consider the reaction to be thought-forms but they are mistaken. there is a vast difference. a thought-form is a clump of energy, as you will recall, which tends to stay put for a length of time in proportion to the amount of energy put into it. a wave-form, on the other hand, is a transitory phenomenon which spreads throughout the etheric body like the proverbial ripples in a pond after you toss in a rock. now, if you have never seen a pond, fill the bathtub with water and toss in a penny. you will see what every

lanet. it appears to be a mystery how this could be done, but it's not. the sacred places of the ancients (and the illuminati today) were invariably the vortex points on the global energy grid. this is a web of force lines, known as ley lines or meridians, which encircle and interpenetrate the planet. i'll go into more detail about this later. when these lines cross it creates a spiralling vortex of energy and figure 8: the endless legends of the "gods" travelling from a sunken land to found civilisations around the world can be explained by the movement of peoples from atlantis in the atlantic ocean and lemuria, or mu in the pacific 40 children of the matrix the more lines that cross, the bigger the vortex, obviously. it was at these multi-line vortexes, like stonehenge, that the atlantea

rational fields orbiting the sun. the heaviest bodies, the planets, are caught in thesecircles and thus orbit the sun. the planets also create less powerful wave circles aroundthemselves and these can attract lighter bodies which orbit them. the moon orbiting theearth is an example of this. so anything that would disturb this harmony of vibrationalinteraction would affect these concentric circles of energy and, if this was powerfulenough, change the orbit of planets. what the physicists say happened with jupiter andv enus would certainly be powerful enough to do this. these circles of standing wavesexist around the sun in relation to the vibrational pressures involved and they do notneed a planet to exist. they exist anyway and a planetary body merely locks into them.therefore there are ma

metric forms and patterns as witnessed in the fibonacci series, fractals, tiles, cones and tetrahedral shapes. entomologist phil callahan has shown how insects and some plants use geometric shapes to collect and transmit electromagnetic and acoustic waves. when one understands that aether, being the basic substrate of the universe, can be interferred with to such a degree as to produce all manner of energy and matter aggregations, it follows that everything is a result of aether engineering to various degrees. dan davidson has been on the cutting edge of the aether engineering field for most of his adult life. in our many discussions and information exchanges over the years, i have found dan to be one of the most reliable, consistent and serious investigators i've had the privilege to know

emotest antiquity. its most common manifestation has been in the use of amulets, ceremonial magic, and occult practices. symbols such as the square, cross, and triangle occur regularly in occult symbols. the cross has an uncountable number of permutations and its association with christianity is a recent phenomenon in known history. in this modern day, most people do not associate symbols as foci of energy and power. for them, a symbol is nothing more than an artistic or common figure which may or may not have any meaning and if they do have any association of power with respect to a symbol, it is merely the idea of possible power associated with an organization or activity that uses the symbol. for example, a company logo would have no intrinsic power in itself; however, the company may b

d for both constructive and destructive purposes even to the point of questioning if the symbol really had anything at all to do with the magical processes. i have long since learned differently, and i invite you to learn some of these exciting things about simple shapes, which, if you apply them, can enhance your life and understanding of the universe in which we live. in order to study any type of energy phenomenon, instrumentation is needed to make known what is happening with the energies. in physics and electronics we have detection instruments such as voltmeters, gauss meters, oscilloscopes, cloud chambers, ammeters, electromagnetic field meters, scanning microscopes, telescopes, etc, to detect and measure the physical forces and effects associated with them. in the case of the aethe

lassical physics, should radiate away their energy and spiral into the nucleus. this obviously doesn't occur. so physicists invented quantum mechanics to explain away the actual observations. one of the findings of quantum theory was that a simple oscillator, such as a pendulum, would not really come to total rest but would continue to "vibrate" randomly about its "zero point" with a small amount of energy always present, thus so-called "zero-point energy" because of the many possible modes of propagation (frequencies, directions) in open space, the zero-point energy integrated over all possible modes is an extremely large energy density. in fact, it is much greater than the nuclear energy densities which can be equated to the famous einstein equation e=mc2. analysis of the properties of z

rationale behind such deviant practices. the magician who engages in this sort of activity is not a common sociopath or child molester who derives pleasure from torturing or killing an innocent victim. rather, the magician in question draws on magical energy released by the emotionally charged victim and directs that energy to affect the world in some way. aside from the legal dangers, the level of energy raised by such a ritual is too great for any but the most powerful wizard (or group of wizards) to control. it is all too common to hear satanists say things like a satanist would never kill a living creature. these statements, made by those who want to promote a positive image of satanism, are clearly erroneous and are based on a christian morality. it would be much more satanic to admi

, where consciousness or the psyche is cloaked and released from the flesh limitations of this world. the foundations of vampirism within the practice of luciferian witchcraft are based within the study and conventional understanding of the odic force, qi, chi or astral energy. understanding the concept and study of this process is fully made manifest in the process of vampirism and the absorbing of energy. qi is the far eastern concept of spiritual life force, or energy. this word is commonly referred to or related to the word air which can mean astral energy as well. one of the earliest mentioning of qi is in the analects of confucius composed around 479 b.c. the concept of qi or chi is indeed lifebreath, the essence of life itself. in the practice of yoga, specifically, ahrimanic yoga

gy surrounding the human body, slightly larger than the physical body. qi is the etheric body, the astral essence which maintains the human body. it can be directly controlled by the mind. psychic energy or the energy surrounding the human body is transferred from what we eat to energy through resting or sleeping. when a vampyre feeds in astral form at night, they are gaining a replenished system of energy which is very pure. the luciferian must have a clear point of focus on how this practice of vampirism works in day to day life. this will be a foundation for those beyond any specific magical practice to establishing a working mind set in predatory spiritualism. the luciferian understands that devouring spiritual energy is a powerful aspect in magick, it is easily validated from a subjec

that, when an object is moving with respect to an observer, the mass of the object becomes greater, the amount of increase depending upon the relative velocity of object and observer. as the mass of the object increases, its length along the axis of its direction will decrease. at the speed of light, the object's mass becomes infinite, and its length shrinks to zero. since an infinite-plus amount of energy would be required to raise the speed of an infinite mass beyond the speed of light, such hyper-light speed is not possible. the sphinx: so states the special theory. the chimaera: now, internally the special theory is consistent, because it treats the speed of light as a constant and incorporates a series of equations which rely upon that constant and are consistent with one another. as

irrational, non-physical and magickal. this understanding of the abyss as a gateway between two different worlds has long past associations with the concept of the temple as a gateway to the world of the gods. this in itself is interesting bearing in mind that many pre-christian temples, upon which christians built their churches are believed to be situated on ley lines, which carry two currents of energy around the planet. it is this belief that is reflected in the theory that the abyss is a location point where the magical worlds and the mundane worlds collide. yet this gateway is also believed to exist within the human psyche at the point where the conscious and the unconscious meet and it is from this point that the satanic magician draws forth his magical power through the medium of

her actions and reactions, thoughts and feelings. here then every part of the individual's mind- both conscious and unconscious (or subconscious) is understood and controlled. one more notable interpretation of the energies representative of the abyss is the doctrine of the qliphoth. this concept links the christian apocryphal tradition of the abyss, or bottomless pit with the cabalistic concept of energy that was left over from the creation of the universe known as the qliphoth. the qliphoth, or 'kelipth'(18) are described as being 'husks' or 'shells' by asim mathep lamm.(19 'they are the waste or litter or filth which the organism of the universe gives off'(20) from this perspective the qliphoth can be utilised by the black magician to work dark magic, using a powerful form of universal

rth. i use the term creation in a fuller sense than is generally understood. these creations are extensions of the psyche built largely out of the application of various principles found hidden within the myth, philosophy and epics of the human condition.the result of the personal application of these vital principles is self transformation. now, transformation- as a process- requires an exchange of energy within the internal and external environments relevant to the individual. these exchanges leave either additions to, subtractions from, or synchronizations with those elements directly involved. further, when i am speaking of elements it is in a metaphorical sense. i am not talking about mixing actual earth and water for instance. what i am inferring is there occurs a mixing of the princ

esire and will to understand personal affinity that the revelatory nature of self exploration yields substance.without affinity, will, desire and activity they are nothing more than intellectual curiousities of literature, myth and opinion. the implication is that there exists a language of higher being that is recognized only by those whose consciousness can become synchronized with the imprints of energy that constitute the various principles, ideas and perceptions of that path. creation is extension, the process that leads to creation, and which results from creation is retraction. retraction can be recognized through its affinity to particular ideas and creations. extension reaches its boundaries and then manifests as a peak experience whose result is a creation. this peak experience i

more than a century ago that they may have been influential in the construction of the ancient wonders of the world. these geometric forms are the basis of all talismanic magical work. modern advances in physics continue to give credibility to ancient beliefs, sometimes in amazing ways. one theory implies that in the origin of the universe, there may have been perfect symmetries: matter froze out of energy like ice crystals in a congealing body of water. the breaking of this absolute symmetry was the creation of the universe itself. this is called the vacuum genesis theory. out of nothingness could have come the spark of genesis. perhaps the darkness held the first original geometric forms, and matter was coaxed into releasing its endless complexity out of these primordial forms which are

ith subconsciousness, which is fluid and efficacious, we want to be as clear as possible, from the consciousness side, about what we are making the talisman for. the first task is to simply state our intention. intentions for talisman making are many, but for our purposes they fall into two broad categories: to align oneself to a certain energy one is attracted to, and to compensate for some kind of energy which feels unbalanced. in other words, modern talismans.especially when used as mandala-like images for meditation.are used principally for psychological reasons, although in the 2 figure 1-a: the tree of life qabalistic tradition they can also act as astral doorways (a fancy word, which for our purposes means working in the realm of the imagination) or for manifesting desires. sometime

n though the correspondences around his image would be relatively the same for both of us.fire, power, and so on. the beautiful thing about relationships with these divine forces is that they can be distinctly personal. in one relationship, michael may infuse one with energy to be very bold; for another michael may be the benevolent but powerful protector. so we draw on that tremendous storehouse of energy to come to our aid in specific ways. if one examines many talismans of the middle ages (when times were bad, indeed) or in the ancient world, one can sometimes go through a lot of trouble (as i have on a number of occasions) deciphering a lot of strange symbols, including sigils (or angelic signatures) and seals, and decoding words in some esoteric script.including hebrew, which is consi

done primarily through the technique of gematria, and numerous examples are given in later sections. we now begin to see why this aspect of qabalistic work is not arbitrary. the intelligence of graphiel, which belongs to the mars/geburah kamea by virtue of numerical association (both equal 325, would never be used on a jupiter kamea, unless one was specifically attempting to join these two kinds of energy. here is where clarity of intention and knowing the correct correspondences both become crucial. unfortunately we encounter some of the same problems with mistaken, garbled, and confusing sigils as we have with planetary seals, so we need to address this issue briefly before examining some specific sigils. it is truly baffling that so many magical books give the same seals and sigils tha

blished here. taphthartharath, the spirit of mercury, is correct in nearly all books i have seen, and to the unaware student, this could pose a danger, because one should never use the spirit or daimon without also including figure 4-v figure 4-w the sigil of the intelligence of the planet on the talisman as well. on the physical plane, it would be rather like a person who had a tremendous amount of energy (spirit) without knowing how to direct it (intelligence. such a person may be active but mindless, like a chicken with its head cut off, to use an analogy that i find suits taphthartharath quite well. spirit needs direction, it needs intelligence. a little knowledge, in the occult tradition, can do more harm than good. the magical numbers of the saturn kamea are three, nine, fifteen, and

eady interbred with the reptilians on mars, would have produced a very high reptilian genetic content. this is vital for the reasons i have explained earlier. they appear to need a particular ratio of reptilian genes before they can shape-shift in the way that they do. but when the interbreeding happened is far less important than the fact that it did happen. satanism is based on the manipulation of energy and consciousness. these deeply sick rituals create an energy field, a vibrational frequency, which connects the consciousness of the participants to the reptilians and other consciousness of, the lower fourth dimension. this is the dimensional field, also known as the lower astral to many people, which resonates to the frequency of low vibrational emotions like fear, guilt, hate and so

there are ten aspects from the left side,65 from the ones emanate several worlds and from the others emanate several worlds, but there is a difference in their existence and subsistence, to which i do not have permission to allude.66 abulafia s remark brings to light another essential component of the nexus of truth and death, which has paved our path in the middle from beginning to end. the play of energy in the world of bounded space and measured time requires binary structures shadow and light, left and right, male and female, good and evil, judgment and mercy, pure and impure. but in the realm of divine unity the world of unbounded space and immeasurable time, not to speak of the unspeakable beyond the pleroma the poetic balance is such that, at root, shadow is light, left is right, ma

ctly. it helps us to develop control, and to gain access to the deeper parts of our nature by making us more aware of them. astral projection with enochian work, however, seems to draw from an external force that can flow through and aid us in exploration. it does this not only within us but also within the external universe by ultimately controlling it. it teaches us to merge with these currents of energy and ride with them rather than swim against them. in addition, it opens up a whole new door to our conception of ourselves and of the universe we live in. below are some condensed versions of astral visions that i experienced some years ago as part of my adeptus minor training under taylor. the first type of projection work that is done within the golden dawn is the slaying of the enochi


ZALEWSKI SECRET INNER ORDER RITUALS OF THE GOLDEN DAWN OCR

e the gods and ritual "there is no part of me that is not of the gods" was a favorite saying of mathers, which was paraphrased from the book of the dead. it showed his aspirations in attaining adeptship. in the golden dawn, godforms from various cultures were considered as currents or potencies of energies that could be tapped and directed to perform a desired task. a good example of this tapping of energy is given in the signs of the 5=6 grade in which the adept draws down the powers of forces which are synthesized into a specific current of energy. the first time this appears to any great extent is in the 5=6 grade where the adept is filled with the energy needed to be able to perform the task about to be initiated. the following paper, by dr. r. felkin, was issued to whare ra members on

ction of the rituals from a kabbalistic concept. f l y i n g r o l l 3 7 kabbalistic soul and aura activation during ritual by now most of you will be familiar with the three main principles of the kabbalistic soul (neschamah, ruach and nephesch. the importance of understanding this principle is because during ritual, the link of the three aspects of the soul opens the gate to a tremendous source of energy. if we study how this energy can be acquired, we use the principles of the aura as a method of expanding this principle. the aura around the body is made up of images of the man, which start next to the skin, and can be seen extending 6 to 12 feet from the physical body. some have grouped these images together in 7 stages, but the fact remains that they all emanate from the physical in s

who had devoted a lifetime of effort to the order. i was told this by a former chief of whare ra when i quizzed her about these grades and their significance. mrs. felkin told jack taylor that the 7=4 grade was the last of the physical grades, and not to bother with the other ones. the etheric link brought in at this level seals the aura of the adept, and theoretically gives him the highest level of energy the order has to offer. no one really believed that those of 8=3 or 9=2 grades were adepts beyond the physical. this stemmed over from the old golden dawn temples. one could say that the bottom line of the 8=3 and 9=2 grades is that they were temple grades only, having little or no astral significance. when i discussed these levels with regardie, he agreed that they lacked any or little

ent the divine force is then petitioned to receive the astral body of the postulant through the link of the second order. 36 bells each bell represents a decan in the zodiac, and most important of all, a godform. the astral and soul in fact leave the body of the postulant, and with each sounding bell, traverse the zodiac which is a representative of the soul's progress through the different forms of energy governing it, until a complete cycle is done. the egyptian zodiac has 37 decans: the first is the actual leaving of the body to meet this godform, while the next 36 are aspects of its journey. the 36 bells were rung to bring things in line with modern astrological studies. with the appearance of the shekinah, the postulant meets the anima of the sphere of geburah; the hidden knowledge of
