A  Rushing  Mighty  Wind





Uranda  May 14, 1952  Class #86



We remember that, at the time of Pentecost, the record states that they were all with One Accord in One Place, about one hundred and twenty people; and they had been devoting themselves to prayer and meditation for a period of ten days, to achieve that unity of the Vibrational Pattern which finally developed. And when they reached a point of being with One Accord in One Place, vibrationally, there came a Sound as of a Rushing Mighty Wind, and it filled the Whole House where they were sitting. There came a Sound as of a Rushing Mighty Wind and filled the Whole House where they were sitting, and there sat on them as if it were cloven tongues of Fire. When we reach that point of attunement with the Cosmic Forces of Being which permits a true Centering in the Spirit of God there is always some experience which more-or-less correlates with that which was experienced at the day of Pentecost.


In the ancient writings of various parts of the world there is recognition of the Aum, and then there is recognition in various ways of what is called the Music of the Spheres—all touching into the same thing. This particular experience of letting the Divine Current flow freely is something that is really indescribable, and any consideration of it moves into the realm of Holy Ground, the most sacred of things. It is a little difficult to say anything much about it without touching into the field of some personal experience or other, and that has its drawbacks. A personal experience is just that—personal—and the details involved will vary from person to person, from time to time, or from group to group, as the case may be. I do not think there is a better way to describe one aspect of it, at least, than the Sound of a Rushing Mighty Wind. But it is not a Sound that you hear with the outer earsthis Sound fills the Body. One has a consciousness of it from within oneself. Perhaps we do not need to go further into that for the moment, except to point out that only to the degree that we, individually and collectively, share attunement in that Mighty Reservoir of Eternal Power can we truly, effectively, serve.


The relationship of all of this to our present problem can be seen in the fact that we are beginning to let an increased Current of Power manifest. But there has not as yet developed a central Solid Pattern or Core of personal understanding, realization, centering, with respect to it. So the whole matter appears on the basis of the fact that we are building something. Something that is not yet manifest is appearing, and when that process is taking place someone has to take the central strain or responsibility of developing a Control Pattern. That is naturally my responsibility, and I am not in the slightest degree objecting to it; but the more rapidly you gain an understanding of what is involved, and your personal relationship to it, the more rapidly will you share in the greater manifestation of God’s Power working through you, and the more quickly will you reach the point where, because of sharing in a Core or Solid Unit Pattern, you will not be under the necessity of facing unnatural, or in the ultimate sense unnecessary, stresses and strains yourself.



Song  of  the  Universe





from  Steps To Mastership  Lesson 3


Uranda  1936



Among the sayings of the Naacal Sages we find these words: “Words of wisdom rejoice the heart of the wise.” Behold, all the secrets of life, both above and below, are revealed within man. Therefore, it hath been said, “Man, know thyself.” To gain an understanding of the Laws of Life, and the means whereby to apply them, behold yourself. In every organ is hidden a spiritual secret. In every part is hidden a Law of God. To the end that we may gain an understanding of these hidden Laws, and attain unto the Mastery which we seek, let us now begin a study of the relationships between the Body of God and the body of man. Who can comprehend the Body of God? Man functioning within the limiting confines of his conscious mind, cannot attain unto such understanding. For man must ascend into the consciousness of the Inner Self before the hidden things may be revealed.


Man was created “in the image and likeness of God.” Through the Law of Correspondence you may gain a glimpse of the Body of God. The body of man is composed of cells, which are in turn composed of atoms. The atoms are composed of electrons which revolve around a central proton, just as our solar system is composed of planets revolving around our central Sun. Thus we see our solar system as an atom in the Body of God. We see our Universe as one cell in the Body of God. We see the UNIVERSE of Universes, in all its vast expanse—endless in scope, Eternal in Being, with perfect harmony made manifest through unalterable Law which extends from the smallest atom to the greatest Universe—all this we see as the Body of God. Just as your spirit is everywhere present in your body, and through it you are aware of that which transpires in every part of your body, just so is the Spirit of God everywhere present in the Universe of universes which is God's Body. All things are in God, and without God there could be nothing.


We will not now seek to comprehend the Glory of the CENTRAL SUN of the Central Universe of the UNIVERSE of Universes. We will not now seek to comprehend the Glory and Greatness of the Supreme Being who dwells in that CENTRAL SUN and guides the destiny of all that is. This Being man can never comprehend. This Being no man could look upon and live. This Supreme Being is the MYSTERY of Mysteries, and HIS NAME may not be spoken by mortal tongue. In the Book of Books it is recorded that He may be known as, I AM THAT I AM. But of God we may study and comprehend a little, for God is all there is, and that part of that which is which presents itself to our senses we may study, and like Moses of old, we may see the “hinder parts” of God. But to do even this we must sanctify ourselves and ascend into the High Mountain of consciousness, which is Sinai. Therefore, let us sanctify ourselves against the Third Day—which is to say, in all three phases of our beings, Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Expression. On the Third Day—that is, when we have sanctified ourselves fully in all three planes, and all three of these phases are perfectly coordinated according to the Divine Plan, and when we have ascended into the High Mountain of consciousness of the Spiritual Plane—the Lord will come down to the mountain in a “thick, black cloud” and He will talk with us, and He will reveal to us the Laws of Life. We can understand these Laws of Life only as we gain an understanding of ourselves, and we can understand ourselves only to the extent that we understand our relationship to God. According to the Law, “Like begets Like.” God could not create that which is different from Himself, therefore, “Man was created in the image and likeness of God.”


Let us now study ourselves in relation to our correspondence with God. When you speak, you use air, and the working of the air through the vocal cords and the mouth produces sound. As we study, remember that air corresponds to the Spirit of God. Air pressure produced in the lungs causes the Vibrancy of Sound as the air leaves the mouth. Even so, within God is the Source of the Force which sends forth the Spirit, and the Spirit produces that Spiritual Sound which is the Song of the Universe, the Cosmic AUM.


The lungs of God you may know as the Reservoir of the Spirit which God breathes. This reservoir of the Spirit is in God. The Spirit flows into God and goes forth again from God, yet remains within God—even as the air flows into your bodies and goes again from you. When you receive the air into your bodies it brings the Blessings of Light. When you send it forth it carries that which your bodies throw off as poisons. With the Spirit, as it flows into God, are the needs of the Universe which are to be supplied. God is Good, Perfect, and Holy. Therefore the Spirit going forth from God carries that which God is sending forth—not poison, but Life, Blessing and Abundance of all good. Therefore, you see that in God and in man the same principle is at work; yet, because God is the Source and man receives, there is a difference. That which man receives carries Life and Blessing. That which God sends forth carries Life and Blessing. That which man sends forth carries the poisons of his nature. That which God receives carries the needs of the Universe. God breathes the Spirit to supply the Spirit with Blessing. Man breathes the air to receive, from the air, Blessing. Both breathe—one Spirit, the other Air.


When man rises in consciousness above the point where he sees himself as separate from God and begins to be unified with God, man, to that degree, begins to breathe the Spirit, and to that degree he becomes more than man. For then, like God, he breathes forth Life and Blessing. Therefore, to gain Mastery, man must begin to breathe the Spirit, and accordingly begin to send forth rather than to receive only. Here you see the secret of why Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than receive.” As long as man receives only, he does not partake of the nature of God, for God gives Life and Blessings. Breathing the air in the proper way helps man to begin to breathe the Spirit. The more man breathes the Spirit, the nearer he comes to the point of Mastery, where his Word is Creative, where his Power is unlimited. For the only limit placed upon man, in the flesh, is but the limit man sets in the amount of the Spirit which he breathes, becoming like unto God. You have been admonished, “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect.” The first requirement in attainment of Perfection is the Breathing of the Spirit.





After you begin to Breathe the Spirit, you can begin to learn about Life. The babe born into the world shows you this, for the first thing that must be accomplished after birth is the start of the breathing process. You are as babes being born into the Spiritual Realms. Would you know the Secrets of Life? You must first begin to Breathe the Spirit. Would you walk, would you run upon the Spiritual Way? You must first begin to Breathe the Spirit, and even as the babe must be slapped upon the back to cause him to breathe, the buffeting of Life slaps you on the back until you begin to Breathe the Spirit. Therefore hear these words. The physical expressions of the Spiritual nostrils are to be found in the brain, one on either side of your head. Through these physical expressions of the Spiritual functions, you can Breathe the Spirit. It is well that as you begin your Silence you breathe air freely, fully, deeply, rhythmically. Then, ceasing to breathe so deeply, forget the air. Concentrate on the two sides of your head near the top, above your ears. Make as if to breathe long, slow breaths through these points. You will feel not only a sensation as if two openings were in your head but also a fullness in the back of your head, for there you will find your Spiritual lungs. Practice this but a short time to begin with. Then increase the time and you will feel the tingling flow of the Spirit through your Whole Body. You are but beginning to Breathe the Spirit.

I love all that I read throughout Uranda's Meditation in the Spirit he spoke them. As there is a Rushing Mighty Wind of air pressure of the Spirit of God produced in the lungs within this body, what goes forth from my mouth when I speak must not ever be poisonous, like judgments: the ABC's that are familiar to me/us from out of the past---though still present in man's world today---but to simply and naturally breathe forth Life and Blessings continuously. I received so many blessings from God, the Source of All, throughout my life on earth, that having come to this day with a deeper understanding of Truth and the Truth of Love, and a greater awareness of Purpose, I've come to realize that it is truly more blessed to give than to receive---this is my Reality! The Spirit going forth from God carries that which God is sending forth: Life, Blessings and Abundance of all good.

In ending my comment I would quote Uranda: "Let us now study ourselves in relation to our correspondence with God. When you speak, you use air, and the working of the air through the vocal cords and the mouth produces sound." What is the sound I produce? Is it a sour note? Not if I can help it because I know it must always be the sound of God through my vocal cords. "As we study, remember that air corresponds to the Spirit of God. Air pressure produced in the lungs causes the Vibrancy of Sound as air leaves the mouth. Even so, within God is the Source of the Force which sends forth the Spirit, and the Spirit produces that Spiritual Sound which is the Song of the Universe, the COSMIC AUM." And within this temple is the Spirit of the Living God Who is eternally the Source of this Force!
