Discipleship in the New Age I - Personal Instructions to Disciples - R.A.J.
August 1938 BROTHER OF MINE: It is not my intent to do more than to give you a few brief words, a suggested meditation and a short elucidation of certain words which should embody for you your personality goal. You have so much study, and life today is so intense and full that a multitude of words might fall on ears stunned by the noise and glamor of our modern world. You have had a year of strain, interior strain predominantly. I believe you realize that you are the better for it. Only in the stress of circumstances can the full power of the soul be evoked. Such is the law. The coming year may show but little relief or lessening of the strain but you are (interiorly again) far better equipped to handle it. A word upon which I seek to lay stress is alignment. You need to develop a straight and direct contact between soul and brain for that is the distinctive feature in all disciples of experience. You have already brought about an alignment between the mind and the brain. The higher needed alignment has been much bettered and you need not work so hard now at developing that capacity. You need, however, to employ the line of force which you have succeeded in establishing between the soul and the personality with greater frequency and more facility. The result of this would be that the significance of two other words would become apparent and you would radiate light and love and become increasingly an inspiration to others. This second word, radiation, should form the key of your life until next I instruct you. The peculiar type of radiation which I want you to endeavor to express is that light which reaches others upon the wings of joy. I would remind you here that happiness is the result of achieved personality desire; joy is the expression of the soul's surety, whilst bliss is the consummation which the monad bestows upon the initiate. Prior to your group meditation, my brother, I would have you do the following brief spiritual exercise - as the Christian mystics call it: [182] Sound the O.M. three times as a personality, achieving alignment; then sound it three times as the soul, conferring inspiration. Then, focusing yourself at as high a point as possible and using the creative imagination to your fullest capacity, see the radiation of love as light pouring from the soul and raying forth as a mental influence to others, as an emotional benediction to others, and as vital life in your aura and physical presence. Sound the O.M. again three times as an integrated personality and soul, fused and blended into one. My blessing rests upon you.
