In Paper Eight, you were introduced to many interesting facts, and we shall now continue our consideration of Ages. I pointed out to you that the First Universal Age was a Water Age, as indicated in Genesis 1:2. We saw that all the Ages, whether ordinary Ages, Solar Ages or Universal Ages, always move in the same order through their cycles, and that the cycle always begins with a Water vibration and closes with a Fire vibration. We found that the order of the four vibrations is always the same, and that they are: 1st, a Water vibration; 2nd, an Air vibration; 3rd, an Earth vibration; and 4th, a Fire vibration. These four vibrations may be spoken of as the Four Forces. Everything that manifests in this world is related to these Four Forces in various combinations of vibration.

If you understood all that this means, you would understand all that there is to know—so do not be discouraged if you do not yet see why these things are so very important. Just read them over until you have these facts clearly in consciousness, and as we continue on you will learn to understand them. The main thing for you to realize now is the fact that the names—Water, Air, Earth and Fire—as used with vibrations in connection with Ages, mean much more than they are usually thought to mean in ordinary use of them. In other words, these names are applied to the Four Primary Forces, or Creative Vibrations in Reactive Form, as symbols that give keys by which the secrets of the Four Forces may be unlocked and easily understood.

As the first Universal Age was a Water Age, and it closed 388 B.C., it is evident that we are now living in the second Universal Age, and that it is an Air Age. The Universal Air Age vibration, in that Air is the symbol of Spirit, is clearly seen as the background of our Great Master’s ministry. This present Universal Age began 2327 years ago—and from a Cosmic standpoint our dates should figure from that point, rather than from the supposed time of Jesus' birth. As the Universal Air Age began with a new cycle of Solar Ages—just like the hour hand on the clock begins a new cycle every time it reaches twelve o'clock—we can see that the Universal Air Age began with a Solar Water Age. Also, that the Solar Water Age, which will not end for 23,545 years yet, began with an ordinary Water Age. As an ordinary Age is only 2156 years long, you will see that the first Water Age of this present Solar Age, came to a close in 1768 A.D., or just 171 years ago. That means that the second Age of this present Solar Water Age began with the close of the first Water Age in 1768 A.D., and that now we are living in an Air Age.

Mankind as a whole is somewhat sensitive and responsive to the vibrations of the ordinary Age in which it is functioning—as evidenced by mankind’s present function in relation to the air, in which man has developed airplanes, radio communication, and the many other uses of the air which have been devised during recent years. The mass of mankind in the fallen state does not recognize, or respond to, the vibrations of the Solar Age to any great extent. This failure of true response on the part of fallen humanity is that which prevents mankind’s right use of the vibrations of the ordinary Age.

In other words, the vibration of our present Solar Age is that of the Water classification, and Water stands for Truth. If man, then, were properly responding to the Solar Water Age vibrations, he would make only true and perfect uses of the vibrations of the Air Age into which the world entered in 1768 A.D. Man has still less response to the vibrations and forces of the present Universal Age, which is a Universal Air Age, and this means that the true Spiritual application of the Air vibrations released through the ordinary Age has completely escaped mankind as a whole, and the human application has been from an unbalanced standpoint of the physical plane only. That is the reason why the inventions which mankind thinks to be so very great are really of little value—they are not the perfect blessings which God intended man should have through the vibrations made available to him.

In the New Age, into which we have entered, all that is humanly conceived of evil and limitation must fall away, and evil will be destroyed from the whole world. As you consider carefully the things that are being revealed to you, you will find it easy to understand how these things will be.

You will note that the three different Ages relate to the three phases of yourself. You have a body, a mind, and to the degree that you respond to your Lord within yourself you have a spiritual expression phase—and these are the three phases of your own being as a Temple of your Lord. In perfect Divine Man, as God first created him, his physical body was attuned with the vibrations of the Age in which he lived; his mind was tuned with the vibrations of the Solar Age in which he lived; and his spiritual expression was attuned with the vibrations of the Universal Age in which he lived. In the fallen state, as humanity now is, man’s body is attuned to the uncertain vibrations of man’s own making in his outer environment; his mind is partially attuned to the vibrations of the ordinary Age in which he lives, and he has almost no spiritual expression of any kind—though he often thinks his mental gymnastics to be spiritual. Thus you see how man is all out of tune with the Cosmic Forces, and no one can hope to enjoy the perfect life God has provided for Divine Man until he has allowed himself to be properly “tuned up” with the Cosmic Vibrations.

The present purpose of the Third Sacred School is to assist all who respond in the process of allowing themselves to be attuned to the Cosmic Vibrations of the three types of Ages through the Four Forces. Only those who carry through in response can be lifted up into that perfect state.

As you realize that you are now living under the vibrations of three different Ages—1st, an ordinary Air Age; 2nd, a Solar Water Age; and 3rd, a Universal Air Age—you will see that the triple vibration of Air-Water-Air contains the secrets of release which allow rebirth into reality here and now. This Triune Vibration is Spirit-Truth-Spirit in full and free function through all three phases of your outer being—that the Triune Vibration may fill your Triune Temple. When this takes place, the Lord of your Triune Temple will take full control of the Four Forces by which His works may be accomplished in the earth through you. This is that which the Great Master revealed in the Two Commandments He gave.

Now we will return to the Bible story of Creation. You have seen that the First Day was a Solar Water Age, and that the Second Day was a Solar Air Age. If the order of the Four Forces as they work through the different Ages is correct as we have outlined it, it is evident that the Third Day should be a Solar Earth Age, and the Fourth Day a Solar Fire Age, and then the Fifth Day should again be a Solar Water Age. Let us check this with the Bible and see what is revealed.

On the Third Day God gathered the waters into one place, “and let the dry land appear,” and “God called the dry land Earth.” So we have proof that we are right so far, and that the Third Day was a Solar Earth Age. Now consider the Fourth Day. As the dry land had appeared, the mists and clouds around the earth were condensed, the atmosphere was cleared, and at last, on the fourth day, the light of the stars and the sun and the moon reached the earth’s surface. The heat and light of the sun began to work its wonders on the earth's surface—and so we again have proof that a Solar Fire Age was the Fourth Day of Creation. Next is the Fifth Day, and lo, we find that it was on the Fifth Day that God said, “Let the waters bring forth abundantly” both fish and fowl—and “it was so.” Here we have, then, five proofs in succession, which no one who believes in the Bible can possibly deny without denying the Bible itself. What of the Sixth Day? On the Sixth Day the creatures of all kinds, including man, which breathe air, and which must have a constant supply of air in order to live, were created. The average human being cannot live for even three short minutes without air. Man may go for days without water, or weeks with out food—but air he must have all the time. It is clear, therefore, that Divine Man was created in an Air Age—and in a Solar Air Age. Of all the Four Forces, it is evident that Earth would be the one most natural to a Day of Rest—and we find that the Seventh Day of Creation was a Solar Earth Age of 25,872 years duration. God Himself made this clear in His instruction to the Children of Israel that they should let the earth rest every seventh year.

Now that I have shown you how the record in the Bible proves the Truth of the Ages, and reveals the Keys by which we may fully understand Creation, it is possible to tell you the Story of Creation that you cannot find in books. This Story is one which you cannot find from any source in the whole world outside of the Third Sacred School. Each one will have to look within himself to find whatever confirmation, or assurance of Truth, he may require in order to let go and allow himself to relax into the New Vision of Reality which is now revealed for all who are ready and willing to respond.

I tell you this Story as it was, because I was there and I took part in all of the events of which I speak. It is not by “memory,” as human beings think of memory, that I am able to reveal this picture to you. It is not some strange and “mystic memory” which has been conjured up by some strange experience. It is not something that anyone has told to me—and, as it has not before been written during present recorded history, it certainly is not something that I have read somewhere. Neither have I any ancient and mysterious “tablets,” or writings of any sort whatsoever. Some there are who will attribute my story to imagination, and they will look upon it as fiction—and to all who so think, I give assurance that I have no objection to their attitude. This Story is to each one according to his response thereto—Reality to all who respond to Reality; fiction to all who respond to fiction. I ask no one to believe it; for spiritual things must be spiritually discerned in the Light of the Fire of the Christ Love.

The Cosmos is without end and without beginning. Your Lord within you is eternal—He never “began,” because He has always been. Seek not to comprehend the things of God which go back into the eternal past, or on into the eternal future. It is enough for you to be assured that your own individual, personal Lord within you now, has the eternal identity which He has always had, and which He always will have—but I speak not of that which you think yourself to be, nor of that which the world has called you.

Your Lord was with me in the beginning, before the world was—this I assure you; but be not concerned about “trying to know it” for yourself. Many hundreds of thousands, yes millions, of years ago, your Lord was one of a vast company of millions of Lords, or God Beings, who were all working together in the creation and transformation of a huge world which became our sun long ago. Your own Lord was, and is, one of the God Beings about whom this Story is told—but as we continue it is to be understood, without my repeating it, that your Lord was one of those of whom I speak when I say “we.”

In the creation of the huge planet which is now the sun of this solar system, we created wonderful plant and animal kingdoms which were marvelous beyond all the imaginings of men. In that whole creation there was no evil; no suffering; no sorrow; no death. The magnificent race of Divine Men and Women who lived in that huge world were always perfect and without sin of any kind. Their beauty of body, their symmetry of form, and their magnificence of stature were more wonderful than you can imagine; and they always functioned in perfect Wisdom, in full Harmony of Oneness With the God Beings who dwelt in them—and we were among those God Beings!

Again I greet you in the Garden of God, that you may truly understand the Secrets of Creation. The blessings of the LORD of the Sacred Seven are ever resting upon you, and are released through you according to your response in love to Him. Remember that the Way is easy—and that the burden of light will dispel all darkness from before you as you truly trust in your Lord, and obey His will.
