Revelations of the Entirely Differentcreates this Technique of Unfoldment

As a man progresses nearer and nearer

to his goal, he finds himself beginning torealise that the entire technique of thisunfoldment consists of a sequence ofrevelations which are induced by his

recognition of subjective significances whichare of a nature entirely different to the usualand apparent meanings. [p. 318]

5 Peaks over Darjeeling

"The disciple climbs the mountain, its five peaks illumined

by the Sun and hiding the other two.From point to point he goes and the Way moves upward allthe time--out of the dark into the light, from the jungle tothe open space, from night to dawn.

From point to point he moves and at each point he gets new

revelation.Five are the mountain peaks, and as he mounts towards

each peak he receives five times the light. Five to the fiveand so from five to five till five fives have brought himlight. Ten lie ahead, but these concern him not as yet.

Five Initiatory Revelations& Purpose of Planetary Logos

[these five statements given] indicate the

revelation in its primary and initiatory

individual recognition; the meaning is,

however, far greater than appears, and is in

reality related to the unfolding purpose of theplanetary Logos, involving the planetary

Council. [pp.369-370]

13/34

Four Angles of Mastering a Revelation

1. The mental, occult, spiritual, hierarchical and triadalfacts itembodies. Every revelation has its own format, for all our planes--

so steadily being revealed--are the subplanes of the cosmicphysical plane.

2. The meaning which the facts and the format veil and hide andfor which the one who is being enlightened must search.

3. The effect which the revelation is intended to make in the dailylife and service and the ashramic relationships of the disciple or

initiate.4. The germ, seed thought, key form and invocative potency of that

which has been revealed. Every revelation has its place in a greatseries of revelations and enlightenments; the disciple has to find,within the form of the revelation, that which he must use in orderto achieve the next destined point of attained revelation.

e.g. Correlations withPoint of Revelation I

Point 1. Energy follows thought and the eye directs the

energy.

Example for expansion upon inter-relationship of Formulas,Hints, Rules, and the Meditation Program overall withRevelations.

Point I & Meditation I-II

Point 1. Energy follows thought and the eye

directs the energy.

Meditation I-IIa) The stage ofraising the energy of the heart

center into the head center.

b) The stage ofsending energy from the headcenter to the solar plexus center.


16/34

Point 1 and Meditation I (1 of 2)

Point 1. Energy follows thought and the eye directs the energy.

Meditation I text, p. 18:

I. Definite and planned Meditation. The theme, if I might so call it, ofthe work will be threefold:

a. The interior interrelation of the seven centres in the body will be the

objective of the meditation, basing the work upon the occult maximthat "energy follows thought."

We have started upon one formula which relates the heart, the higherhead centre, and the solar plexus.


17/34

Point 1 and Meditation I (2 of 2)

[Meditation I text, p. 18: continued ]

b. The result in the forming of seven great centres of energywhich will constitute the group centres, fed and enlightened bythe energy transmitted by each individual. [SupplementarySeven, refer to Supplementary 7 Hints]

c. The fusion (consciously undertaken) of the individual soul withthe group soul and consequently a conscious rapport with theHierarchy, the kingdom of souls.

The first meditation affects the three centres in the individualdisciple [head, heart, solar plexus] and also, and consequently,his astral body.


18/34

Point 1 and Keynote of Formula 1

Formula I .......Lead us from darkness to Light. [p. 305]

The first formula was basically concerned with the monadic

significance of the words "from darkness to Light," leading

to vision and illumined purpose ... [p. 275]

Points of Revelation:

You will note the relation (if you call it no more than that) between

the two phrases "points of revelation" and "mountain of

initiation In the Old Commentary, these are brought together in

a very illumined statementilluminating if duly reflected upon:


19/34

Point 1 & Formula 1 (1 of 2)

Point 1. Energy follows thought and the eye directs the energy.

The Formula Itself: Description

"A line of fire between two blazing points. A stream of water blue--again a line--emerging from the earth--and ending in the ocean. Atree with root above and flowers below.

"Out of the fire, and always at the midway point, appears the eye

of God (Shiva). Upon the stream, between the two extremes, therefloats the eye of vision--a thread of light unites the two.

"Deep in the tree, between the root and flowers, the eye again isseen. The eye that knows, the eye that sees, the directing eye--onemade of fire, one fluid as the sea, and two which look from here tothere. Fire, water and the earth--all need the vital air. The air is life.

The air is God." [pp. 250-251]


20/34

Formula 1 & Discipleship (2 of 2)

Formula 1 . . . Concerns integration into the Ashram; itconcerns the "revelation of group feeling." It is related tosensitivity and conditions the life of the Ashram. [p. 364]

Formula One . . . Deals with integration into an Ashram and isconcerned with the revelation of groupfeeling. It is related tothe astral nature. [p. 267]

Formula I ... Concerns integration into an Ashram. Groupfeeling. Dispassion of glamour through light. [p. 345]

a. Energy .. Thought ...... Directive Energy [p. 347]


21/34

Point 1, Revelations & the Plan

[from DINA II, p. in Revelations ]

for disciples and initiates who have not yet taken the third initiation

and who are still "confined" within physical vehicles, the

information that the "eye directs the energy" is sure and far more

easily understood.

From the angle of our studies, the revelation accorded to the initiaterelates to the carrying forward of the divine Plan upon the physical

plane and to the implementation of the will of Shamballa, through

the medium of disciples and aspirants and of advanced humanity,

workingconsciously or unconsciouslyin our modern world.


22/34

Point 1, Physical Plane, ajna, and

millions following Christs footsteps

The first Point of Revelation has necessarily an unique relation

to the physical plane, to the hierarchical workers in physicalbodies, and to those who consciously use the ajna centre. The

number of those who can work with the energy of thought is

now very great, because so many hundreds of thousands have

taken the first initiation. This becomes clear when you realise

the untold numbers of those who are definitely orientedtowards the light, who are spiritually motivated and are

consciously trying to tread the Path or follow the footsteps

of Christ. [Page 375-376]


23/34

Point 4 & Council Chamber

4.Purpose itself is only an energy, released

within the confines of the Council Chamber.

There is must take shape.

Involves the buddhic or intuitional plane.

what Christians call the "inscrutable will of God," the

unrecognised purpose of the Lord of the World Who "knows

His Own Mind, radiates the highest quality of Love, and

focusses His Will in His Own high Place outside the Council

Chamber of Shamballa.

That the Avatar will come is a predictable certainty.


24/34

Point 4 & Formula 1, 2nd purpose the second purpose of the formula, which is called "the discovery of

the point within the circle."

This signifiesas far as the group is involvedthe revelation of thecentral coherent force of the group itself. This isat the same timeand until after the higher initiation which we call the fourthinitiationthe Master at the centre of the group.

This is, consequently, the correspondence to the "jewel in thelotus," where the individual is concerned, to the Hierarchy, wherehumanity is concerned, and to the central point of life in all forms.

Of form and of consciousness, the circle and the point are thenatural symbols. This applies equally to the atom, to man, to the

planet and to the solar system.


25/34

Point 4 and Formula Four

Formula Fourhas a specific effect upon the

"jewel in the lotus," awakening it to life; this itdoes (through effects produced) upon the three

planes of the three worlds, thus bringing about

changes in the seven wheels (centres) so that the

"dynamic point at the centre of each wheel

obliterates the lesser points of force, and thus

the wheel begins to turn upon itself."


26/34

Point 4, Hint IV and Supplementary 4

Hint IV. The initiate knows because he works.

Supplementary Hint

4. The Will of God destroys the wills ofmen, but both are needed to complete thewhole.


27/34

5 x 5 = 25 + 10 = 35 Pointsof Revelation to make Mastery

Fully Human at 25 subplanes?

there are five initiations ahead of the disciple,with two more ahead of the Master, making inall seven initiations, and that prior to eachinitiation--symbolically or factually speaking--

there are five great revelations, making a totalof twenty-five, with ten later to be registeredby the Master.


28/34

Intelligent Cooperatornew systems of training; DIY trend

You will see, therefore, why I have included this

teaching upon the Points of Revelation in what I have

to give you anent the processes of preparing for

initiation.

It is essential that the modern disciple no longer goes

forward blindly but that he cooperates intelligently in

the new systems of training.


29/34

take intelligent place in the life-service

[pp. 306-309 follows]

Let me reiterate to you the well-known truth that no

man is an initiate apart from understanding, that thelife of the initiate is one of constant registration of newknowledge which must be transmuted into practicalwisdom, of occult facts which must take intelligentplace in the life-service of the initiate, and of new

inclusions of areas of consciousness; these latter mustbecome the normal field of experience and ofexpression; they then become the ground for furtherexpansion


30/34

Organize for speed; concentrate on the essentials

during the coming New Age, disciples will be

taught how to work consciously and knowinglyfor light;

they will be shown how to realise what willhappen to them before they take the needed

steps and follow initiation. This will save much time and "focus the light in

the desired place" far more rapidly than hitherto.


31/34

Changing perception to four higher

ethers: Light on the physical plane produces the organ of vision, the

eye through which revelation of physical areas of

consciousness becomes possible; the same theme of light

runs through the analogous process by means of

synchronising instruments upon all planes; nevertheless thephysical concept of instrument falls increasingly into the background, and

other words take its place as we deal with higher areas of consciousness:

Recognising Perception. Interpreting Perception. Spiritual

Perception. Decisive Perception. These terms will suffice to conveyto the disciple the nature of the recognitions which he renders to the

revelation that unfolds before him, once he is an initiate within the

Ashram and is changing his apparatus of perception from the tangible one

of the three worlds (tangible because [Page 368] within the world of

forms) to the higher correspondences which he must use in the future.


32/34

recognising, interpreting (buddhi-manas)

spiritual, decisive (monadic, atmic) the physical concept of instrument falls increasingly

into the background, and other words take its place

as we deal with higher areas of consciousness:

Recognising Perception. Interpreting Perception.Spiritual Perception. Decisive Perception.

These terms once he is changing his apparatus

of perception from the tangible one of the three

worlds within the world of forms) to the highercorrespondences which he must use in the future.

34/34

The first new sense at 6th

Recognising Perception = sight

It is at the sixth Initiation of Decision that

Perception and Recognition of the revelation

reach their heights for the initiate. [related to

sight] After this, the subtler correspondences

to the tangible senses of taste [monadic, 2nd] and

smell [logoic or atomic, 1st] begin definitely to

demonstrate [therefore, Perception/Recognition, would mean manas is the

culmination (visible light, made revealed) of the 6th race

sense? See TCF 188 & Senses & Centers chart]
