Sex #1
Basic Principles Of Being
Uranda April 27, 1954 p.m.
We have been considering various aspects of the matter of design in relationship to these basic principles of being, and this morning I would like, with your cooperation, to consider some of the basic aspects of this problem, or question, subject—it is all three as far as we are concerned. But if we are going to take up this aspect of the problem this morning it means that there must be a purity of heart that permits us to examine factors which from the world standpoint either cannot be touched or can be touched only lightly or extremely carefully. It should be carefully, in any case. But this particular phase of the question relates to what is commonly called sex. It is a subject that I always approach with a great deal of caution and care, because it is one about which there is so much misunderstanding, and with respect to which heart and mind tend to be veiled in so many people. If we are going to comprehend the factors for ourselves, and in a manner which will permit us to serve others in the days to come, we need to consider this phase of the subject.
When we approach a consideration of what may, in a certain sense at least, be called sex, we need to remember that we are touching into the field of that which is most holy, most sacred, and if it is holy and sacred it means that it is closely centered in God. Now when I use the word “sex” I mean more than the physical characteristics which distinguish male and female. We recognize that sex must include sex function, but if I use that term, “sex function,” there tends to be a limitation in consciousness which causes the hearer to think of simply the physical relationship in the intimate sense between the male and the female. My concern is first to show you that the subject is not to be so contained; that it reaches into all fields of life expression.
Conceivably we might undertake to develop some other term, to use some other word; but if that idea presents itself, I ask the question, "Why?" Why can't we take the word which is so much misunderstood and misused and abused in idea and function in the world and see it in its true sense, its holy, sacred meaning, its broad expanse, see it in its relationship to God? We have spoken of God Principle, or the principle which expresses the nature or the being of God. Now if we have God Principle, what one word would tend to best suggest—not to define and confine, but to best suggest—the nature of this God Principle? Suppose we put there the word "creative." The God Principle is creative. This God Principle, with its creative nature extended into the physical realm of human beings, manifests in relationship to sex—it centers there, in actual fact. We see it, this creative function, in relationship to the process by which human beings are born: conception, gestation and birth. We see it in relationship to those factors which establish the pattern of relationship between male and female.
Now we know that in certain cases, where unwise function persists in the world pattern, human beings are sometimes, in their male and female aspects, drawn together on what is commonly called a physical basis; that is to say, the attraction that is felt is not so much an attraction of the mind or the heart, it is not so much a matter of love; it is a matter of physical attraction, which is sometimes classified as a chemical affinity. Now such function at that level, where there is not coordination mentally, emotionally, spiritually, soon burns itself out, soon ceases to have meaning, and that which at the first attracted begins, on one side or the other, or on both sides, to repel. The physical is a vitally important aspect of being, and without the physical, being at this level, in this range of creation, has no meaning at all. So we cannot object to the physical. That which is of God is supposed to manifest in the level of the physical according to the pattern of the divine design. But if we consider principle in the creative sense, first we need to see the truth, the truth that makes human beings free.
The very manner in which I approach this subject suggests that it is in a range in which human beings are not free. It is a subject which to a high degree in the world sense is utterly taboo. Many people like to try to act and speak as if the subject did not exist; it just isn't. And yet we all know it is. It is no use hiding our heads in the sand, the sands of time. And we can immediately see, whether we understand how it is or not, what the processes of relationship are, or understand the basic factors as they find expression in our lives in a thousand different ways. We can readily understand, in the overall sense, that God Principle in creative expression must be present in order for the reality of conception and birth to be possible, and that manifestation of principle in the physical sense is the means by which we all arrive in this sphere of things, whether we are willing to consider the subject or not; for every person on the face of the earth was born after conception and gestation had worked out.
So this creative expression of basic principle manifests in the physical level. The fact that human beings generally don't have an understanding of this manifestation of God Principle in themselves accounts for a very high degree of the number of disorders which beset human beings, physically, mentally and emotionally. There are many who are ill, sick, physically, mentally and emotionally—any one of the three dominant—where the basic difficulty arises as a result of maladjustment in relationship to the creative principle of God Being as it is manifest through the physical level of being.
Since I have approached the subject, if the members of this Class here don't develop any false concepts or ideas with respect to what I am presenting, if no one here distorts it or spoils it or jumps to any false conclusions, it will be the first time in my experience that such a thing has ever been. It will be the first time in my experience. And yet if I am to fulfil my responsibility to you as a teacher I can't avoid the subject. Sooner or later I must touch upon it. So I do my best to help you attain a state of consciousness which will permit you to see it correctly, in its true light, in its spiritual beauty, with its wonders and its glories, so that as nearly as possible we can segregate your pattern of consciousness in regard to this subject from that which is ugly, sordid, unreal or in any way should not be.
In our recent services you here, sharing with our Unit as a whole, have allowed the development of a higher degree of the level of unification of consciousness. Have you not felt it in connection with our services?—something that was at peace, something that was real, in the spiritual pattern of being? Now that atmosphere is absolutely essential to any true understanding of this subject. But in service, after using reasonable precaution, being wise, we still have to take a chance, so to speak, we still have to dare to do, we still have to move forward. We can't say, "Well here is an opportunity but there is a chance I will be misunderstood if I do that. I had better just not say it." First thing you know, you will not be doing anything except going down. We must be wise and have understanding, be careful to establish a pattern of consciousness which permits the development of understanding, and then proceed in the current of the spirit.=
So that is my attitude toward you, and I feel that in our togetherness thus far we have reached a point where we can begin, at least, to touch upon this subject. It is not one which we can explore in fulness in a class period or two. There is so much involved which as yet you cannot possibly see, that we will probably be touching this subject from time to time in various ways in the remaining portion of our Class term. And the more you understand about it the more you will realize there is to understand about it. I hope no one here imagines that he or she understands all that is necessary. That is one of the most, what shall we say, devastating of human attitudes, and it is one you will run into in the days to come, because people, particularly the male aspect of the human expression—some women are like that too—but the men are more greatly at fault than the women, because somehow or other the male egotism with respect to his own concept of his own manhood tends to make the male feel that he knows just about all that he needs to know on the subject and he tends to close the door to the development of any real consciousness in this sphere. And that is one of the particularized problems that you will run into in the days to come. So let us not have any closed door.
Now we recognize that if we are going to consider sex in the physical sense we must also consider sex in every sense, because if sex permits the manifestation of the creative principle in the physical level, isn't it rather inane, to say the least, to imagine that the manifestation of creative principle at some other level is unrelated to sex? If sex permits the manifestation of creative principle in the physical level, sex permits the manifestation of creative principle in any level—in God Himself. We need to see that absolutely everything, at every level, has a relationship to sex. Just as it is utterly impossible for you to have been born on earth without sex, just so is it utterly impossible for anything to manifest anywhere, in any level in heaven above or earth beneath, without sex. There is no place in all the cosmos, in God or any of His creation, with respect to anything that has been brought forth or will be, but what it relates to that which is signified when we use the word "sex"—every level of being, everything.
Man has somehow established ideas with respect to sex in the physical sense, built a barrier around it, and tried to imagine that everything else is somehow not sex, and that if one is of a pure mind or a pure heart one wouldn't ever see any sex or think of sex at any other level. And many people have so deluded themselves—and there are plenty of people in the world to help them in developing the delusion—that they imagine that somehow this sex thing, as they think of it in its confined area in the physical realm, is sinful. God did command man to multiply and replenish the earth. But this idea that sex is somehow sinful originates from what? There has been a tendency on the part of human beings to have a little vision with respect to the truths of being, and there was a recognition that this that we call sex, if it be misused, if it be abused, will produce wrong things; and human beings have been carried to the lowest depths of degradation by wrong function in relationship to sex.
On the other hand, if we stop to consider the principle, if there is that which in wrong use will carry to the lowest depths of which man is aware, is it difficult to comprehend the idea that this same thing, if it be used correctly, will carry man to the highest heights of which he is aware? It is because it is something sacred, holy, that the devastating results of wrong function in relationship to it show up so quickly and are so severe.
We need to realize that the activity, the function, of the God principle in heaven is on the basis of sex. There are those who imagine, in the world, that once you get away from earth and go to heaven there will not be any more sex, and that idea has to a large degree derived from the misunderstanding of what the Master said when He quoted the statement, "For in heaven there is neither marrying nor giving in marriage." Man, not understanding heaven, not understanding the God Principle, not understanding correct function in the creative sense, has imagined something then with respect to heaven in relationship to that statement, because he didn't know what the truth of the matter was. What is the truth of the matter? In heaven there is no marrying or giving in marriage, no. Why? Because the beings there are eternal. Isn't that simple? The beings there are eternal—not the limited sphere or expanse of life on earth as man has known it.
The Lord said, "In heaven there is neither marrying nor giving in marriage." And yet they say, "This marriage must have been made in heaven, it has lasted so long." Isn't that logic! That marriage was made on earth. It may have revealed some of the heavenly aspects of being, but the pattern of relationship of God Beings was established a long time ago. That is something like, shall we say, millions of years—would that make it any easier?—or hundreds of thousands of years, or something. And we think that a little pattern of twenty-five or thirty or fifty years is going to upset all of that and change it around. Oh no, it won't, not at all. No, there isn't any marrying or giving in marriage in heaven, because there is no need of it. But that is not to say there isn't any sex function in heaven; because there is no level of being where there is no sex function in relationship to the form of that level, in relationship to the mental and emotional aspects of that level of being.
There is no level, anywhere there is being, where there is no sex function. So this that we call sex, particularly and generally in reference to the physical factors, in actual proof extends into every level of being. And remember that just as man cannot produce a baby without cooperating with the physical factors of sex, just so, God cannot produce anything in creation without the factors of sex. Every creative act of God—bringing forth the earth, the solar system, or anything upon the earth, or the creation of man himself—anything that was created at any time, in any place, in any level of being, was brought forth on the basis of sex, the Creative God Principle in action. And that Creative God Principle had to have a means of manifestation on the level where the creation was to take place. Now remember that. That is a key point which most people tend to overlook.
This Creative God Principle must have a means of manifestation on the level on which the creation is to take place. If we are going to have the creation of a baby, the bringing forth of a child, then there must be the physical means at this level by reason of which that Creative God Principle may come into action. Just so, there must be the means by which that principle may come into action on the mental level, the emotional level, and upon every level of being in heaven above and in the earth beneath. Why is it, then, that sex is such a holy, sacred thing? Because it is the central pattern of human relationship to God Himself. There is nothing in which any human being could have any experience which allows a closer realization of actual sharing with God than this.
Let us find out what it means and not jump to some foolish conclusion. Sex is the means by which the creative God principle acts in any level of being, for all purposes, in the fulfilment of God's will. And here we have that by means of which we can become aware of the actual reality of a close relationship with God, because if that principle is inherent in our own beings and that principle is inherent in God Beings, we can perceive the relationship. And it is something with respect to which there is feeling. Mind. Yes, God has mind. God has a heart, feeling—God's heart of Love. But love, in order to have meaning and in order to be felt, must move, it must act. It cannot be held static. Something must move, and the means by which God Principle can act for you is, if you understand the meaning correctly as I am using it, sex. Here we have something which in its very nature is so holy, is so sacred and divine, that if we study it and examine it with a pure heart we begin to see something of the true nature of God, the being of God, the action of God—not just the fact of God, but the fact of God in action. And it is God in action that is going to have meaning, not just the fact of His Presence. And just the fact of being, all by itself, is not going to have meaning in relationship to ourselves. It is our being in action, in function, accomplishing something, doing something, that really gives us a sense of personal meaningfulness.
Let us remember that sex function is not in any sense limited to the physical aspect of being. These principles are at work here in relationship to my appearing before you, for my presence here would be of no value to you, and your presence here would be of no value to me, we would be accomplishing nothing, if there was not an interchange in the vibratory pattern of being, the creative expression of the God Principle. If in any moment any of you close off your heart of response, stop yielding, set up a pattern of resistance, you do not receive what I have to offer. Sex again, on that level. And in that interchange, if it is completely mutual, we have a deep inner satisfaction, a deep sense of accomplishing something, of movement, of the fact that in our relationship there is creative meaning. And so it is in this that we can begin to have an awareness of how to truly participate with God in creative action on earth, and it is here that such function is so greatly needed.
There is a diagram here, of a small circle within a larger circle. Pointing to the inner circle are the words, Core of Being. On the circumference of the larger: Periphery of Life Action, and an outgoing arrow representing Birth. Male and female are also indicated on the spaces within the two circles.
Now I would like to draw your attention very briefly to something. We have talked about the core of being, and we have illustrated that core with a little circle with a larger circle drawn around it, and we have indicated this centering as the core of being and the outer circle round about it as the periphery of life action. There we have a simple diagram illustrating the basic factors in relationship to practically every phase of life, all of the things that manifest out here in the periphery, and there we have a picture of the relationship of God in the human being, the core of being, Deity. We have a portrayal on the basis of the male and female principle—the male principle and the female principle. And the action of the male principle in relationship to the female principle causes something to be born at the periphery of life, the birth of a child, the coming forth of all those things that make life meaningful.
You cannot consider God at any level of being which we can comprehend, you cannot consider the creative principle, without considering the male and the female principle. And they work at all levels, at all times, on the basis of conception, gestation and birth. If you ignore that principle in relationship to anything that is coming forth at any level, something is going to go wrong with it; it will not manifest the way it is supposed to. There must be always, for the manifestation of anything anywhere, good, bad or indifferent, the interplay of the male and the female principle, and always, whatever manifests manifests after conception, gestation and birth. Now it may be stillbirth, it may be an abortion, it may be something wrong, or it may be a live birth of a perfectly beautiful, healthy child. Whatever it is, it is appearing at the periphery of being. And everything that so manifests on earth and in heaven above manifests through the female principle, without any exception anywhere, at any time—in God, in any heaven that there is, and here on earth. Everything that manifests in form—according to the level of form, whatever it may be—manifests through the female principle. Perhaps that would be a good point to start with tomorrow.

The Final Step
David Barnes April 26, 2026 Salmon Arm, BC
There is a powerful intensification of spirit moving through the heart, certainly through the One Heart of this One Body that is forming on earth; and certainly through my heart as part of the Heart of the One Body.
Uranda and Martin emphasized so clearly that this Archangelic Body is an actual Living Body—the term is not a metaphor; it's not an analogy; it’s not an allegorical reference. It is not a metaphorical description of a spiritual principle or image. This Christ Body is an actual, living, breathing Body that is coming forth in vibrational substance and in form. Incarnate within it, and stewarding the cycles of growth and development, is an Archangelic Presence, in exactly the same manner as there is an Angel incarnate and coming forth through each of our own human forms. The focalization of that Archangelic Presence is drawing together the cells and the organs, the glands and tissues and nerves, the arms and the legs, the head and the eyes and the ears and the mouth, the torso, and the breathing mechanism, and the bloodstream of a Living Spiritual Body. Here is an Archangelic focal point in a Body composed of Angels in human form who know what's going on, to this extent. Here we are, eager and willing to play our parts more clearly and vividly these days, allowing ourselves to be drawn into useful patterns and positions.
With increasing maturity we are here to be those configurations of gland and organ and nerve and tissue in this Living Body, whether it be in the pineal, pituitary, thyroid, or thymus—the heart—or pancreas or adrenal or the gonads. But there's more to a Body than just the endocrine glands—all kinds of other formations that must be in place. Since we know at least this much about it now, then there's something that is awakening in consciousness about the specific nature of the design of this developing Archangelic Body. Myself, I have a great passion to let this vision and action increase, let the details appear in consciousness, and be ready, as far as my outer capacities are concerned, to move with the impulse of the Spirit of the Angel and the Archangel. We may let the specific focalizations of consciousness incarnate in this Archangelic Body more clearly and accurately come into action, to penetrate and guide the affairs of the rest of the body of mankind, and draw those who will move in attunement, in pattern, in this integrating cycle.
Governmental focus points are emerging. You and I know who they are. It is coming through men and women that we know. They're not somewhere else. They are right here now, incarnate on earth. We're a part of them. They're us and many others. But we must let this Governmental Body be drawn more precisely together, so that a powerful integrating force is made available within the body of mankind. Those ones who have the integrity to move with the integrating cycle will do it; and those who don't will move more rapidly into the disintegrating aspects of the cycle.
I want to read some words spoken by Martin Cecil in 1978, words that can infuse our Evening Meditation with increased Presence, bringing pressure through the penetrating power of spiritual expression. Martin says:
“Step by step. The Lord says you can do it step by step. But there comes a time when all the steps have been taken. And I would suggest that we are gathered here to prove that that time is now. We are here to do what is only possible when the final step has been taken. I don't think we've taken that final step yet, but what's to be done can only be done when the final step has been taken. And we don't need a class to accomplish that. We need a radiant session of some kind, where we gather together and experience the creative purpose for which we are all on earth, and for which we are all present in this particular setting right now. This can only be taken by those who are moving from the standpoint of the spiritual expression plane approach directly”—directly.
We are here on earth together to do what is only possible when the Final Step has been taken—the Final Step—an interesting phrase. This that Martin refers to as the Final Step relates to the development of the specific formations of spiritual design in this Archangelic Body, fulfilled in terms of position and function by specific God Beings incarnate, those who know that they are filling their places in the design and are working together to draw forth other formations in the design of the Body. In fact, one might say, to insist that they come forth, to actively draw them forth in the natural cycles of growth and development of the Archangelic Body, which is not just a generalized assembly of Angel-friends, but very specific formations which correspond to the endocrine system in the whole collective Body, those Seven Seals that must be opened by the Lamb, the Archangel in spiritual expression through specific Angels, human beings who are aspects of the differentiation of the Spirit and the Body and the Consciousness of the Lords of Creation.
If this doesn't happen, and if those men and women, me and you, do not allow ourselves to adeqately be brought together to do this work, commissioned by the Archangel Himself, then the Final Step simply will not be taken. And this specific design that Martin referenced is something that we are all very familiar with—at least in its initial descriptions—and we have read about it, talked about it, discussed it, been taught about it, and experienced it to some extent over many years. But the crunch is on; time is getting short and pressure is on the men and women who are playing a part in the development of what Uranda called, way back, the Temple of Light, and what Uranda long, long ago called Emissaries of Divine Light. You know, the very first writing recorded in the index of the record of Uranda’s teaching and services, going back to 1932, the title of the very first one recorded is “Emissaries of Divine Light—The Meaning of Membership”. And that was well before Emissaries of Divine Light was incorporated as a Church in 1940. And of course, in the early 1930’s he began to speak about the Temple of Love, the Temple of Light, and the Temple of Life, all related to the three planes of this outer world, and the design formations of the incarnate God Beings who compose and are responsible for the ongoing creation of this outer world, and who must incarnate cycle after cycle as the Plan of God unfolds. Always, there are enough Angels to do the job required in each generation, if the human beings involved let it happen.
Uranda said this in 1943, “The plan of God will be fulfilled.” Let me repeat: “The plan of God will be fulfilled, either through those of us who have heard the call and seen the vision, or through others who will be raised up during the great tribulation that will come should we fail in moving in the easy way which the Lord has provided, in the extraordinary privileges granted to us. Let us let that which is now established come into fruition, that still greater tribulation need not be than now shall be.” It is quite obvious that mankind approaches the gates of tribulation. It is either the gates of tribulation or the Gates of Eden and the Gates of Praise! But the Plan of God will be fulfilled, either through those of us who have heard the call and seen the vision; or through those who will be raised up in the midst of the great tribulation that is coming, tribulation greater, much greater, far greater than is going to come upon mankind anyway, because of human failures over long ages.
At the time when Emissaries of Divine Light was incorporated as a Church in 1940, Uranda wrote this:
“Let it be realized by all the faithful ones that the Church of the Emissaries Of Divine Light is the Church not built with hands; but is the Temple of the Living God, and the Lord is in His Temple. “Let all the earth Rejoice before Him.” Too many people think of a building of brick or stone when they hear the word “church”. Of such churches there are already more than enough. The Church Body of the Emissaries of Divine Light is composed of many churches, for each earnest one who truly harmonizes in the Church Body is, in his outer manifestation, a Church or Temple. Yes, you are the Temple, and you are the Church, individually. “The Lord is in His Holy Temple, let all the earth Rejoice before Him.
“As you let yourself be established as a Church of the Emissaries of Divine Light, realizing that your own Lord within you is the Minister in your Church, you will begin to let the service of the Lord manifest through you in accomplishment of that for which you, the Church, have been made manifest. Blessing you in the Holy Name of the LORD of Lords, Whose Minister I AM, I welcome you to the harmonization of the Church Body that you may be a true Emissary in Blessing to your Brother Man, and in Glorifying the Lord our God, and I AM Uranda”
Interesting. We remember that the Plan of God will be fulfilled either through those of us who have heard the call and seen the vision, or some other way in the cycles of tribulation that are coming upon the world relatively soon now. And again, here Martin said in that same time period, 1978: “It's time to get on with the job.” [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/we-need-to-get-on-with-job.html] We've had quite a number of years after Martin left us, plenty of time to “get on with the job.” And we have been getting on with it, but there is much more needed. Since Martin left the job to us, about 28 years of this cycle was spent with disseminating gross misunderstanding, scattering abroad, and producing various odious designs. But all the way through, there has been a focus of integration present and operative, internal to the individual and to the collective, and to some degree in outer action in spiritual expression. But we now need to consider the design of the Archangelic Body very carefully, and be keenly interested and ready and available to play our parts as members of this living formation called the Christ Body, incarnate within which are what was described long ago in the Book of Revelation as the “Four Beasts” or the “Four Living Creatures”—in other words, specific human beings who provide the four primary focal points that must be present, coordinated by spirit, and functioning together in this outer world, representing the Four Forces at work in the building of this Archangelic Body.
And then there was named, in symbolic terms, other configurations of Angels in the manifest design of the Body: “the throne set in heaven”; “ the four-and-twenty elders around about the throne”; “the seven spirits before the throne”; and “the Lamb as it had been slain.” And many more specific formations were described. We may remember that our Master sent out “the seventy”. And Uranda referenced a “Council of Seventy” ministers that must at some point come into formation; and he also spoke of those who would come, “company upon company” to play their parts. Both Uranda and Martin emphasized many times that in order to have a Divine Control Pattern established it would require 144,000 men and women perfectly centered, coordinated and functioning in the Archangelic Body on earth. An understanding of the reality of that very specific detail in manifest focalization has to open up in consciousness and in form, before too long among those of us who have “heard the call and seen the vision.” Or, if we fail to take this Final Step which would allow that essential Control Pattern to be established in the “easy way … by reason of the extraordinary privileges that have been granted to us”, it will have to come through those who are raised up and drawn together during the coming period of very great tribulation—or not at all, and that is a horrifying thought. These are things that I feel need to be seriously engaged by us, now.
There is something happening right now that relates to these things: a movement that Yugin Pak and David Karchere have allowed, bringing a substantial group of people from Korea to Sunrise Ranch, to blend as much as possible in a consciousness of the oneness of the Archangelic Body with those at Sunrise, and with others in the Colorado area. We enfold it all from here. This is a most wonderful outworking. It represents something essential and magical, perhaps evidence of the possibility of beginning to take this Final Step because mature, elder, leadership focal points are drawing it together with vision, and enfolding it with great care and thanksgiving to the LORD for what is opening in this phase of the creative cycle.
Since Martin died, we had twenty-eight years of confusion that had to pass away, followed by a period of clearing the heaven so that we can move through into a new pattern, a new creative cycle of water, air, earth and fire, with the Four Forces beginning to be re-focalized. A new cycle is unfolding and it suggests what's possible in the months and years right ahead of us, compelling us to rapidly step into the place where the Plan of God can be well focalized, synchronized and coordinated. As that happens, we recognize the leadership that each one of us can provide in an expanded Focal Body that must be allowed to come together, as we commune together, work together, and release the governmental forces moving through the Divine Design into the whole.
Some very specific things are addressed here. Not just a generalized pattern of attunement or obedience to the command to love one another. We're being called as Angels incarnate to go to work and let these new patterns emerge in this period where we can prove ready to take the Final Step in this cycle of restoration we are in. Here we are with this glorious opportunity to let the Plan of God come into form in greater measure; and let our meditations and actions bring us to the point where this Step is taken, so that the Plan is governed by specific focalizations in this Body of Angels, men and women who are obedient to the Master’s commandment “… love one another; as I have loved you.”
Those five words are usually forgotten: “… as I have loved you.” And how did He love us? He loved us in Truth as Angels in His Archangelic Body, as Friends who do whatsoever He commands of the members of His Body on earth—in every part of the restoration cycle where we are incarnate and in action. Here we are now! “Everything necessary to the outworking of the perfect plan is already provided in every detail”—right in this cycle. Here we are now! What's necessary and provided are the men and the women who love the LORD and in that, love the design of His Body; love who He sends into the world to do the job. He sent you and me into the world. Therefore, if we love Him, we love the ones He sends.
In a service in 1974, Martin spoke of the “delaying action” brought to bear by spirit, where the movement that allows the Final Step to be taken, this pattern of the finishing of things, is being held in abeyance by spirit, because we who have been called have not been adequately in place. As Martin put it, if spirit really “let it rip”, there would be “no one around to sweep up the dust”—nobody left to sweep up the ashes. So there has been this delaying action by spirit, in order to allow a well-coordinated Body to appear, to give focus to the cycles of integration. When that Body comes into adequate maturity then spirit can allow the fire to fall because there will be a focus of integration in place, a Body that will not be moved out of position or out of polarity, no matter what tribulations come. Then what needs to disintegrate and pass away will do so much more gracefully and rapidly than would be the case. So these greater works have been held in abeyance, to a large degree, by the wisdom of spirit, waiting for us to be in position in a much more specific and detailed way, in order to be an absolutely steady focus of integration while the cycles of disintegration eliminate fallen factors from this whole world.
Here we at least sense the Presence of the Archangel—Michael and his Angels in action, with a large Body holding steady on earth while the cleansing power does its work, casting the “dragon” out of the earth even has Michael and His Angels cast the “dragon” out of heaven with finality after the fall of man, when the Motherland sank—Lemuria and Atlantis. Tribulations are coming. Let there be present those who allow the emergence of this intricate pattern of living design be operative in a precisely developed Archangelic Body, where we will know what's going on and spirit can “let it rip”. And there will be people around to sweep up the dust and the ashes. So, as it was said, “Let's get on with the job.”
It is so good to bring this into consciousness for meditation, and carry forward more deliberately in those ranges that are our individual responsibility within the whole, as we each make this investment, even as the LORD has invested in us, that we may play our parts ever more effectively in the fulfillment of God's Great Plan.
Mysteries of Eternity — Ascending Spiral
Uranda December 16, 1943
As we move in the Ever Ascending Cycles of the Eternal, we relax under the influence of the Holy Spirit so that we may, one and all, be easily led into All Truth. You are well aware of the fact that all creative processes move in cycles; that Eternity itself is symbolized by the circle, which is without beginning and without end, and that from the standpoint of the Divine that which is under the influence of creative processes is never static. The magnitude of the Cosmic Cycle of Creation is beyond the immediate comprehension of the human mind; nevertheless, the human mind can understand that, regardless of the magnitude of the dimensions involved, there is such a Cycle. The Cosmic Cycle is so huge that it includes the fullness of All that Is, and within that Cosmos our Universe constitutes but one of tens of thousands of universes. The Creative Cycle of our Universe is of such magnitude that there is no need, at this time at least, to attempt to grasp the distances and the time elements involved. But within the Creative Cycle of our Universe we have the Creative Cycle of our own Solar System, which relates directly to us and to the world in which we live. In the Creative Cycles of our own Solar System, and particularly of our own world, we find that which we can, under the influence of the Spirit, begin to comprehend and understand.
When we consider the progression of the Creative Cycles of Being, it must be understood that “up and down”, or “lower and higher”, are relative terms. We recognize that the progression of the Creative Cycle is in the nature of an Ascending Spiral rather than in the nature of a fixed circle. If we have an Ascending Spiral, the upper part of which is lost from view in distant infinity, but the lower part of which is directly before our vision, and we run a vertical line from the starting point upward along one edge of the spiral, we will note that movement beginning at the lower end of the spiral and moving along the spiral will, after the first cycle, come to the vertical line, or a point directly above the starting point. As the vision expands and understanding increases, we cease looking at the bottom of the spiral which seems to be a circle only, and we look at the side of the spiral where the ascending vibration of the Creative Cycles becomes evident. The endless nature of Eternity becomes less mysterious.
The Creative Spiral for this world began at the point of the beginning of the creation of this world. This beginning point was selected, not in an arbitrary manner, but with a full recognition of the relationship of all the Cosmic Forces focalized into that given point through the Creative Triangles of the Universe and of the Cosmos as they relate to this Solar System, and as they were focalized with respect to our Sun at the point where creation was to begin. The logical nature of the processes of creation become increasingly evident to you. Remember that everything which is accomplished from a Cosmic standpoint through the Creative Power of God is worked out on the basis of mathematical certainties in relationship to fundamental Principles and Laws, and with a full recognition of the nature and strength of the Cosmic Currents and Forces which are focalized in any given activity. If you remember that God does not do anything on a haphazard basis, or by reason of whim and fancy, but that, rather, all Divine and Spiritual things are worked out with mathematical precision and certainty, you will have removed from your mind one of the greatest causes of confusion with respect to things Divine. It is obvious, then, that human beings must first permit themselves to be coordinated with the basic Laws of Being, and that they must begin to understand those Laws and work with them before they can hope to have any effective expression from the standpoint of Creative Activity.
Let us now return to the starting point of creation as related to this world. The Four Forces have been given symbolical names, which facilitate a comprehension of the four basic forces which manifest through the created forms of this world. From a Cosmic standpoint, the forces utilized were not limited to what we call the Four Forces, and it must be recognized that what we broadly term the Four Forces are sub-divided into innumerable sub-classifications of Divine Activity in and through all created forms on this earth—Water, Air, Earth and Fire. Remember that I specified that the Four Forces, broadly indicated by these symbolical terms, are as they relate to manifestation in or through the created form—and not to the Cosmic Forces which, in their universal nature, may be thought of as preceding, or exterior to, the specified Four Forces, although the Four Forces in manifestation through created form have their origin in Cosmic Forces which are not limited to the nature and function of the Four Forces as we are considering them. This distinction must be borne clearly in mind in order to avoid confusion, and it is illustrated in our first text, Genesis 1:2: “And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.” That was the starting point of creation on the First Day. However, it is obvious, in accordance with the distinctions we have just drawn, that the action of the Spirit of God prior to and at the beginning of creation, implies vastly more than the Spirit of God symbolized by “air” as made manifest in and through all the forms of created things on this earth.
The First Force in its segregated form relating to the creation of this earth, is symbolically named Water, and it signifies the specific group of truths or basic Principles and Laws which constituted the scope of Creative Activity as it was to relate to this world, and thereby established the limits of that which was to be. There is vastly more Truth in function and manifestation in the Cosmos than was required in the making of this world. Therefore, the first step of creation, after the Cosmic selection of the starting point, was the selection of the Truths necessary to the fulfillment of the pre-determined Plan for this earth, and then the release of the Spirit or Power of God through those Truths to begin the process of creation, whereupon there was Light.
Part of the work of the first day was the establishment of the nature and limits of the Creative Day which was, according to present time measurements, a period of 25,872 years. The six days of creation covered a period of, roughly, 155,000 years. In other words, the beginning of creation was at a point 310,800 years B.C.
All the Four Forces are always present, but with one only dominant in any given Creative Day, so the Water vibration continued dominant for 25,872 years, whereupon the Air vibration became dominant, followed by the Earth and Fire vibrations, whereupon the sequence begins again, with Water again becoming dominant. This earth, and man, the crowning creation, are the result of the use of the Trinity Pattern, and therefore in the basic cycle of the spiral from the starting point to a point first directly above the starting point, there were three repetitions of the sequences of the Four Forces, or Twelve Creative Days, which completed the first cycle of creation for this world at 388 B.C.—or 310,464 years—which carries us to the point 388 B.C.
Each Creative Day of 25,872 years is divided on the Trinity Pattern into twelve sections, so that the twelve segments of the Creative Day, each being 2,156 years long, relates to the period of time required for the Sun of our Solar System to make one revolution in its orbit around its Central Sun. The successive dominance of the Four Forces in the 2,156 year periods is repeated three times within one Creative Day of 25,872 years. You begin to get a picture of the way in which the Four Forces are combined to produce specific results. The First Creative Day began with a Water vibration—Water was dominant as the beginning point in the 2,156 year cycles. As soon as the first sub-cycle closed, Water continued dominant in the Creative Cycle, with a sub-cycle of Air dominance, and so continued in natural sequence through the First Creative Day. The Second Creative Day began with a dominant Air Vibration and a Water Vibration in the sub-cycle. The firmament is the atmosphere or the air of this earth, which is symbolical of the Spirit of God as manifest in and through created forms. On the Third Creative Day the dry land appears. On the Fourth Creative Day, the light of the sun, moon and stars penetrated to the earth's surface by reason of the clearing of the earth's atmosphere, so we have on the Fourth Creative Day the dominant Fire Vibration.
The Fifth Creative Day returns to Water, and you will note in verse 20 that God said: “Let the waters bring forth abundantly.” The Sixth Creative Day is an Air vibration, and it was in the Sixth Creative Day that animal life was created, with the Crowning Creation of Man, and air is the basic essential for life in the animal kingdom—shut off his supply of air and man dies immediately. The Seventh Creative Day, an Earth vibration, was a day of rest. You see that the concluding Creative Day of the First Cycle would naturally be Fire. It was during the Fire Age of 25,872 years which ended 388 B.C. that Lemuria went down in flames of fire, and 1,000 years after the submersion of Lemuria, Atlantis submerged. In the latter part of this Twelfth Day of Creation, as the First Cycle was drawing to a close, man had returned to a point of consciousness where he began to again be aware of the direction of the Lord, evidenced by Old Testament history. The outstanding symbolism of religious ceremonies during the Old Testament period is sacrifice by Fire. It was a Fire Age, concluding with a Fire vibration in the sub-cycle. It was from the burning fire of the bush that was not consumed that God spoke to Moses. It was in the fire and smoke of Mount Sinai that the Twelve Commandments were given. Sacrifice by fire characterized the whole Old Testament period.
This means that the First Cycle of Creation came to an end in 388 B.C., and for the first time since the beginning of creation the world was back to a point directly above the starting point. The earth and all that is therein had been created. Divine Man had been established in the earth. And then in the beginning of the Twelfth Day of Creation man had fallen, with subsequent cataclysmic changes in the earth which carried man down to what has been called the cave man age, and then for about 5,000 years man progressed to a point where we have the beginning of recorded history, going back to about 5,000 B.C. Man had progressed to a point in the latter part of the Twelfth Day of Creation where it was possible to begin to work out the Plan of Salvation, and the First Sacred School was established at the direction of Melchizedek. However, the Israelites failed to carry through on the opportunities given them, so the beginning of the actual process of making all things new according to the Promise contained in Revelation had to wait until the beginning of the Second Cycle of Creation, or until the world had returned on the spiral to a point directly above the starting point of creation.
As soon as this Thirteenth Day of Creation was well started, Jesus came. As the world had returned to the vertical line on the Ascending Spiral for the first time since the beginning of creation at 388 B.C., we begin to recognize the Cosmic reasons back of the coming of Jesus into the world at the time that He did come. The Cosmic Forces were again for the first time focalized in a manner identical to those which permitted the beginning of the creation of the world, and through the use of those Forces, and the manifestation of Jesus, the beginning of the recreation or restoration of the world could best take place.
This Thirteenth Creative Day in which we now live is, in the natural sequence, seen to be a Water Vibration—just as was the First Day of Creation. The first sub-cycle of this Creative Day was also Water. We note that Jesus began His Ministry by the changing of water to wine. Many of His miracles related to water. Water baptism was instituted as a symbol of the cleansing of the individual by the action of Truth under the influence of the Spirit of God. Jesus obviously recognized that in this First Creative Day of the Second Cycle, He was dealing with a Water vibration, both in the dominant cycle and in the sub-cycle.
This First Day of Creation in the new cycle, which is the Thirteenth Day of Creation from the beginning of creation for this world, is naturally a period of 25,872 years dating from 388 B.C., but the sub-cycle beginning 388 B.C. on the dominant Water vibration ended 2,156 years later, or in 1768 A.D. We see that 1768 A.D. would mark the beginning of the second sub-cycle in this Creative Day, and that it would be under a dominant Air vibration. We have at the present time a dominant Water vibration in the Creative Day, and a dominant Air vibration in the sub-cycle in which we now live. By the beginning of the 20th century the influence of the dominant Air vibration of the sub-cycle began to be evident. We are living in an Air Age insofar as the sub-cycle is concerned.
It is through this Air Age that the speeding up process which is shortening the days, and is intensifying the destruction of evil by evil, has taken place and is taking place in accordance with prophecy. Now man is being given his final opportunity to return to God. In this First Creative Day of the new cycle, God is beginning to make all things new. Through the progression upward on the creative spiral, the vibrations in which the world is functioning are becoming more and more rarefied, and man will have to let go of evil and turn to God in order to live in these higher vibrational conditions. If man as a whole were to refuse to respond and be recreated and reborn in this period, he would in a comparatively short time destroy himself from the face of the earth. It is not anticipated that this will be the case, but if this should happen, we are still in the First Day of Creation of the new cycle, and God would be in position to carry on creative processes and create man on a higher vibration in this cycle, so as to remove any possibility of a repetition of the fall.
It is anticipated that there will be those who carry through into the New Age State of Being, but because we are in a cycle that is on a higher plane of vibration directly above the point of the beginning of creation, the intensified vibrations will make it impossible for evil to again manifest, no matter which alternative of the outworking Plan must be utilized. If the faithful ones carry through into the fullness of this New Age vibration, they will populate the earth made new. If such a thing as the failure of all human beings were to take place, the Cosmic vibrations are such that God could re-create Divine Man and begin again on the higher plane of the present cycle.
In the original creation God made every provision necessary for Divine Man, but He recognized that on the plane of vibration then manifest the fall of man was possible. God warned against self-activity—it was not God's Plan that man should fall—but it was necessary for the beginning of the creation of the world to take place under the focalization of the Cosmic Forces that were utilized. Now, through progression along the Spiral of the Creative Cycles, we are reaching a point where evil cannot continue indefinitely to exist, and once the change is accomplished, the vibrational state of being will be such that a repetition of the fall will be impossible.
This gives a deeper understanding of the Cosmic Principles and Forces that are in operation in the world and in our lives individually. To the degree that we recognize the Cosmic significance of the time in which we live, and to the degree that we, individually and collectively, coordinate with these Laws, Principles and Forces, we will be doing our part in accomplishing the Greater Works which are required for the recreation by which God is making all things new, that the New Earth State may be hastened, and that as many as possible of the children of men may carry through this time of turmoil into the New Age. As the world experiences crucifixion, and then passes through the period of the darkness of the tomb, it is for every faithful one to remain attuned to the Cosmic Currents of Life by which the Victory over the tomb may manifest for the world, in accordance with the Way in which our Great Master led.
Therefore, as the earnest ones, recognizing the basic Principles regulating the operation of the Four Forces in and through this world, begin to let these same Four Forces become the dominant influences in their individual lives, we find that the scope of function becomes the Whole of Truth, the power of function becomes the release of the Unlimited Spirit of God, the foundation of function becomes in all things the Rock of Reality, and the manifestation of function becomes the expression of Divine Love that is as firm and undeviating in the face of opposition as it is gentle in the consideration of True Response.
