Pneumaplasm Is Generated Through Response To God

Pneumaplasm  Is  Generated  Through  Response  To  God

Martin Cecil   September 8, 1974

If sound is to be heard there must be a medium through which it is propagated. There has been pretty much of a vacuum insofar as the essential medium for the propagation of the Tone is concerned. And, while the Source is present it remains unheard because of the lack of the essential medium in this dimensional world. Air is not the only medium for the propagation of sound here on earth; it's propagated through water—liquid—and solid in some measure; but principally we are interested in air, because this is the way we perceive sound. The ear provides us with an instrument by which we can discern the sound waves in the air around us. Air is the symbol of spirit. We recognize that the second day of creation permitted the formation of what was called the firmament, which was called heaven—and the second force of the four forces is air. Here is the development of a substance which connected the waters which were above and the waters which were below. It divided the waters from the waters; however whatever divides also connects. Here was some fine substance, which we have called pneumaplasm, to provide the means by which the truth of the dimensionless realm might be connected with the truth of the dimensional realm—waters above and waters below.

Unless there is an adequate amount of this connecting substance the Tone won't be heard to any great extent. And unless the connecting substance is of the right consistency, pure and clear, what comes through will tend to be distorted or muted, so it must be the right medium—a sea of glass clear as crystal. Then the Tone may sound. And it's not only a sound—the word sound is used as a way of conveying an idea—because the Tone relates to every level of consciousness. It is a sound, it is a sight, it is an aroma, it is something to be felt; all the various means of discernment are required to encompass the Tone. It is a Seven-Dimensional Tone. If we only become aware of it on one dimensional level we haven't really heard the Tone yet. As long as life remains in the flesh of the individual physical body there is some of this substance permitting the connection to be maintained with the Tone—a certain amount of the medium of connection. Only when the Silver Cord is loosed, when the medium of connection in its focalized expression is no longer sufficient to convey the sound of the Tone, is the body dead. The composition of the body is still a part of what is present in this dimensional world and therefore partakes of the life that is present in this dimensional world, but no longer specifically in that form.

Obviously there is a need for the generation of this connecting substance so that the Tone may begin to be heard more clearly and accurately here in the world where we are—it's only a Tone to us when it is heard. The Source of the Tone is present and emanates from the dimensionless state. It could be described as a Tone in the dimensionless state; the vibration is there, but it doesn't mean too much here in the dimensional world until that Tone is translated into dimensional vibration. To do that this pneumaplasmic substance is essential—pneumaplasmic substance of the right consistency and clarity to allow the Tone to be heard. That right consistency and clarity has a relatedness to what is spoken of as a pure heart. Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall be aware of the Tone sounding in the dimensional world because the substance, the medium by which the sound is propagated, is present—then it may be heard. We may see clearly enough that if there isn't that substance present, adequately clear and to a sufficient extent, then a person simply is not in position to hear the Tone. In such case it would be useless to amplify the Tone to any conceivable extent and expect that person to hear anything. The substance must be present in the person if the Tone is to be perceived by that person.

If there is someone present in whom there is adequate substance so that the Tone is sounding, then there may be something of a transference of substance to the other person, if there is any openness of response, so that while that other person is present with the one through whom the Tone is being released he may hear it. But as soon as he goes out of that person's presence and the substance is no longer available the sound vanishes, and then the individual says, “Well that was just a dream; I thought I heard something then but it didn't really amount to anything.” This has been the experience of all of you in your contacts with people. And you yourselves may at some point have had that experience, so that the sound of the Tone may have been discerned for a moment but then it vanished—and when it vanished it didn't seem to be real anymore to you. The more generation of pneumaplasm there is the louder the Tone sounds; not that there is any more Tone sounding but that there is more medium through which it is being propagated.

The Tone, the Shekinah, the Christ, the Lamb, the Word, has always been. “The same was in the beginning with God.” It has always been sounding dimensionlessly speaking, and obviously some of it's been getting through without being damped down. There must have been adequate pneumaplasm present, universally speaking, to permit what has transpired to be the way it is. But we are concerned with what is happening in human experience, what is happening insofar as we and others are concerned. We see the importance of the generation of this medium of connection between the dimensionless state and the dimensional state. Insofar as human beings are concerned, if the purpose of man is to be experienced, that medium must be in place. It must be generated in the required quantity and in the required consistency, so that it is on hand and the Tone can be clearly discerned by everyone. This hasn't been the case for a long time, but is once again beginning to emerge, simply because there is more of the essential medium of connection.

We have considered this matter of connecting substance—pneumaplasm—in various ways. It is generated out of the flesh of our own bodies, so obviously it relates to every level in this dimensional realm. Insofar as the human being is concerned the flesh is at the first level, and there are successive levels or Planes of Being besides the physical, for we live in what is describable as a Seven-Plane World. Out of the flesh, at the first level, pneumaplasm is generated on the basis of response to God. Here is the activating means by which this substance may emerge, ascending, to provide the medium of connection at each succeeding level so that the true Tone, in the dimensionless sense, may sound and resound through all seven levels. It's only the True Tone when it is doing so—it is only then complete. If it is just sounding through one or two levels it's incomplete and doesn't give a true experience of the real nature of the Tone. The Tone is rightly differentiated sevenfold in this sense. When we speak of this seven it's more or less an arbitrary definition to convey an idea, because there is no break between tones, or between levels, where the Tone is sounding. The vibration is continuous.

So we are concerned with the generation of the essential pneumaplasm of the right consistency so that there may be provision in this regard at every level, and when this is so, the Tone can sound at every level and the Whole Tone then becomes apparent. This relates to Holiness—the Holy Ghost. The ghost is seen as referring to this substance which we have called pneumaplasm. And the Holy Ghost is a Whole Ghost, not just bits and pieces of a ghost, which is an incomplete ghost and consequently an unholy ghost.

Incompleteness is sometimes referred to as evil. In the Lord's Prayer the statement was made, “Deliver us from evil”—deliver us from incompleteness. We need to be whole. Let us not imagine that we can be holy if we are incomplete. The only thing that produces completeness is the sounding of the Tone, but the Tone can't sound so that it has any effect in this dimensional world, in relationship to dimensional people, unless there is the essential substance available at every level. Then we can dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High and abide under the Shadow of the Almighty. So there's no use searching around for the Tone—lo here and lo there—as though we could find it lurking somewhere. The only way we become aware of the Tone is because there is the substance through which it is sounding present in ourselves. If it isn't in ourselves we're not aware of the Tone. Obviously it is in ourselves to some extent now, because we are aware of the Tone in terms of being alive—that much anyway. We know there must be more to life than merely being aware that we are alive, and the more relates to the sounding of the Tone through the substance of pneumaplasm at every level of this dimensional state in us.

You can see how essential it is that we should refrain from judging in the matter, judging others certainly, or even judging ourselves, because how much substance is there? How much of the Tone is present and sounding, either in ourselves or in somebody else? It's not a matter of judging—it's a matter of continuing to generate the substance clear and pure and right so that there may be the increased means for the sounding of a balanced Tone. Then the Holy Ghost may come upon us. And when that happens there is power. “Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you”—after the Tone is sounding through an adequate pattern of pneumaplasm within you—then that is the Tone sounding in this dimensional world. And it is that sounding in this dimensional world that engenders the effects that put in an appearance rightly at each step of the creative process. We can trust the Tone that this will occur. So here is the necessity of permitting a proper generation of the essential substance which connects spirit with form, connects the dimensionless with the dimensional.

It is in the sounding of that Tone externally that there is the provision for a person to begin to find a point of orientation toward the source of the Tone. “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God.” Each person in the final analysis is responsible for the generation of his or her own pneumaplasm—the medium of connection. Only when a person begins to become quiet, begins to let go, is not frantically trying to get anything, can there begin to be the possibility of sensing the Tone.

What is the Tone?—that's the point. There is something that was recorded for us of the words of Jesus, “A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign, and there shall no sign be given unto it,” because a sign cannot be given to a wicked and an adulterous generation. The wickedness and the adultery relate to the fact that those concerned are self-centeredly subject to their reactions to the material world, and as long as an individual is in that state there is no sign. “A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas.” The whole story of Jonah related to the sounding of the Tone which, to start with, he rejected. The point is that the only sign is the sounding of the Tone, and a wicked and an adulterous generation doesn't hear the sounding of the Tone, so there is no sign—easily understood! To begin to discern the sign is to begin to discern the Tone.

The initial discernment of the Tone relates to the sounding of the Tone through somebody else, or others; then the individual may begin to orient in that direction instead of being oriented in the state of wickedness and adultery, subject to the material world by reason of all his feeling involvements with it. As long as he is in that state he is looking the wrong way, he can't discern the Tone, so there is no sign. But when he turns around because there is a point of orientation provided for him, then he begins to be centered toward the Tone, and his feelings are no longer constantly being activated by all the things that are going on in the material world. His emotions settle down; there begins to be something of a calm. And here is the beginning generation of the essential medium of connection—generated when the individual ceases to be all emotionally involved with everything that's going on around him.

Becoming centered toward the Tone, the flesh begins to generate the essential substance of pneumaplasm and, because this is so, the individual begins to discern the Tone in himself. For a while he may see it as being almost entirely over there somewhere with respect to others who are revealing the Tone. But somewhere along the line he needs to become aware of the fact that the Tone is not merely out there but is in here too, so that there may be a conscious increase of the expression of that Tone. The conscious increase of the expression of that Tone intensifies the generation of the pneumaplasm, and so the Tone becomes more clearly heard. Our concern is to maintain the heaven, so that there may be the generation of the essential substance and therefore the increased awareness of the Tone. There can't be an increased awareness of the Tone without the substance.

There are those who feel that we need to have a maintained atmosphere in us and all around us so that this can happen so nicely—don't anybody rock the boat! But if one is only capable of maintaining this right atmosphere, of maintaining the generation of the pneumaplasm, when everything is hunky-dory, one won't maintain it for very long. The supreme example of what is required again comes to point through the experience of Jesus, because no matter what happened to Him the firmament was never dissipated insofar as He was concerned. He never changed character, no matter what stress He was under. So it isn't a matter of having the external environment just right, or the way one thinks would be right to maintain the required state; it's a matter of being capable of maintaining that regardless of the external environment. On another occasion, He was asleep in a boat, getting some rest, when a storm arose and the disciples became all disturbed about the storm. They woke Him up and said, “Look what's happening.” “O ye of little faith!” The storm doesn't need to penetrate into the firmament. In fact if there is a real firmament there it can't—there is no way it can get in.

As there is the increased generation of pneumaplasm and it's kept safe, never allowed to be dissipated, the Tone sounds louder in the individual; but if there are more and more individuals who are allowing this to happen the Tone sounds louder collectively speaking, and it may be loud enough to awaken those who seem to be dead, but aren't really. Here is Gabriel's Trump. It's been sounding a long, long time insofar as the dimensionless state is concerned, but it hasn't been heard on earth because there was no medium to propagate that sound. But as soon as that begins to be here the sound increases in volume and ultimately no one can avoid hearing it. They may not think it's the sound of Gabriel's Trump, mind you, but it will have an effect, and some of those effects will bring forth the resurrection into life and others of those effects bring forth the resurrection of damnation. There are two kinds. But it's all consequent upon the sounding of the Tone, which has been absent from the experience of the world for all these millennia past.

There is no precedent of what is experienced when this Tone begins to sound again in volume.

Well let's find out because we let it happen.

We are delighted to abide in quietness and confidence, permitting the generation of the essential pneumaplasm and rejoicing in the increased sound of the Tone that we thereby know, and that others begin to know, miraculously. We see it happening in some measure already—people coming awake, maybe some coming awake that we've known for a long time and we've seen them slumbering away. But one fine day there they are, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed! What a glorious thing! What a glorious thing! What greater joy could there be than to participate in the sounding of the Tone because we make very sure that there is plenty of air present in which that Tone may vibrate. Whatever substance is present in others will then begin to vibrate with increasing intensity also and they come alive.

We rejoice to welcome our brothers and sisters home to what is in fact the Kingdom—the Kingdom of the True Design and Control of Love. Because this Tone sounds, because this awakening takes place, because the changes are brought to pass, all things are made new, inexorably, inevitably. Nobody can stop it. What greater privilege can there be than to participate in this process, to the glory of God and to the blessing of His children on earth.

I rejoice to have shared another beautiful evening with you, both in the generation of the connecting substance and in the consequent intensification of the sounding of the Tone. It is unlike sound in the ordinary sense. This connecting substance, wherever it may be present, is part of the whole of that connecting substance, so that a sound generated here in that substance sounds in the substance wherever it is the world around. It is not a matter of geography. We are concerned with a different level of experience. While the substance is generated out of the flesh, it permeates all levels of consciousness, and so we find ourselves connected to that same substance wherever it may be. What is done here, or wherever you may be in the sounding of the Tone, is done everywhere—the Tone sounds everywhere. As yet it is not heard by everyone, but to some extent it is certainly having an effect on everyone. And that effect is perfect. Let's not judge it.
