Discipleship in the New Age I - Personal Instructions to Disciples - D.I.J. |
January 1934 BROTHER OF OLD: The past six months have been for you a period of change, of readjustment and difficulty. The testing of the intuition to which you and others were subjected has not constituted for you, the chief problem. Your intuition functioned and you saw clearly the group implications, as you did also in the matter of Dr. ... For you there has been the long test of endurance, and that is for you - as for many - a test of real importance and significance. The power to persist when physical liability and [456] disability call aloud for cessation of the effort, the ability to stand steady when the sense of futility seems to overwhelm, and the capacity to function as a soul detached from personal reactions - this is for you the desired achievement. So be it, brother. This you have demanded for yourself; but remember that the incentive, leading to success, must be achievement for the group. Freedom from personality problems does not interest you basically. Such problems provide not for you sufficient or adequate motive to warrant the strain and effort. But usefulness to the group and the providing of a channel whereby spiritual light and love may enter into the living organism of the group, that must be for you the requisite motive, and this must be borne in mind when the strain and effort is at its height. You are at the point in your development where the helping of others must be your constant outlet, beginning with your home circle, and reaching out to your fellow disciples and your environment. It is not for you the adding of increased work but the constant inner pressure of constructive thinking. In all groups, each unit contributes somewhat to the group thought content. Your contribution must be the pouring in of mental devotion, thus stimulating the clear shining of the group aspiration and love. That which you have to give must be brought down from the levels of consciousness which are abstract, mystical or egoic. Contact must be made with the physical plane and through physical brain awareness. Work, therefore, for the next few months at strengthening your alignment, linking consciously brain-mind-soul, and producing a deepened and more stabilized interrelation and awareness. Use the imagination whilst so doing, and for three minutes each morning stand before the window and visualize your head (the area around it and in it), as a center of force into which is streaming a ray or beam of light from the soul, the Oversoul. This is seen as pouring down into the head center from the soul, via the mind, gathering thus mental intensity; through the astral body, gathering to itself high aspiration and devotion; and through the etheric body, vitalizing it in every part; thus it streams into the head. Then, holding this stream there, divide it into two streams and send one, by an act of the will, to your splenic center. (Note: This is found a little to the left and [457] below the heart center, above the solar plexus and somewhat under the left hand ribs.) Send the other stream of force, by an act of the will, out into the world through the hands held out in blessing. |
