| Discipleship in the New Age I - Personal Instructions to Disciples - L.U.T. |
| November 1937 BROTHER OF MINE: I write to you today to call you specifically to increased service. You are now more ready to serve than at any other time in your life. I think I might say with truth that (for the first time since you came into incarnation) you can give something to your fellowmen which will open a door for them. Your astral purification has proceeded with rapidity. This, your diary indicates. The keeping of that diary serves, and should continue to serve, a most useful purpose. Therefore, continue with it during this next year, for it will tend to stabilize in you that which we have wrestled to discover and develop during many years of difficulty. I believe that you yourself will have recognized by now the wisdom of my suggestion and that, through the medium of your spiritual diary, the true "color" and quality of your life will emerge with significance. Forget not, however, that the purpose of all training which I have given you and all my disciples is to produce a greater capacity to serve. I would like to see you doing some definite service in relation to your fellowmen... I refer to that service which a disciple renders when he approaches every human being as a soul. This type of service involves the recognition of one's own capacity, the intensification of one's ability to love one's fellowmen, the power to draw others to one with the request - spoken or implied - for spiritual help and then the power to work with the person and give him right help in the right way. This, in its turn, involves an inner brooding upon the quality and the need of the one to be served. This subjective process must precede all outer work; upon the strength and the persistence [485] of it depends the success of the attempt to help. This process of inner, brooding reflection is oft omitted through enthusiasm and self-confidence. When, however, it has been accomplished and the server stands ready to help, then he can depend upon the needy one and circumstance to indicate to him the next step. I would have you reflect deeply upon this and I would have you begin - in a new and a fresh way - to endeavor to bring light to individuals with a pure, disinterested selflessness. I would have you work with discrimination, with purity of motive and with an effort to eliminate all personality reactions, for it is upon the rock of the personality that many well intentioned servers wreck their work. You now can be trusted. With that thought in mind I urge you to go forward. Only one other suggestion would I give. Keep yourself out of the picture altogether and your private affairs, your personal likes and dislikes entirely eliminated. Let this work with individuals and this part of your service to humanity and to me be entirely divorced from your personality life, permitting no rapport. . . You are entering upon a period of fruitful service - if you so choose. Let us now consider the rays of your threefold personality. In their right understanding will come much illumination upon the way of service. Your soul ray is, as you know, the second Ray of Love-Wisdom and your personality ray is that of Will or Power. But your astrological sign has been one of the major factors in constituting your life problem. However this has been a blessing in disguise, for the problems that it has brought and the difficulties which you have encountered under the sign of the Bull are fitting you for the Scorpio experience in your next life - the greatest experience upon the Path. Your mental body is on the fourth ray. Hence the conflict and hence, at the same time, the deep seated love of harmony. These have warred together in your life. I would have you note this. It is possible to love harmony so much that you will fight to get it and struggle to achieve it; in this way you enter into a world of glamor from which it is oft difficult to emerge. Your fourth ray attributes connect you closely to several of your co-disciples. I would suggest that you avail yourself of this relationship by an intensification of rapport. [486] Your astral body is on the sixth ray and this intensifies your Taurian tendencies for, as the Bull rushes straight forward seeing only that which lies directly ahead, so does the sixth ray fanatic. When, however, this aptitude is applied to the path of service, much progress can be made. Herein lies a hint to you. Your physical body is upon the third ray but so strong is your personality ray, the first (for you are an integrated personality), that it colors the nature, type and quality of your physical body which is definitely not a third ray type. Your rays, therefore, are:
You have, therefore, three vehicles on the line of the second ray 2-4-6 and two on the line of the first ray 1-3. Three of your bodies are consequently governed by major lines of energy. |
