The Destiny of Material Kind

The Book of Enlightenment - A guide to a better life

Tuesday 29th September 1936

Oh God most wonderful Power controlling and governing the destiny of material kind assisting those materially and spiritually those desirous of progression.

We realise the necessity of compliance, we realise oh God that we materially and spiritually are what you desire our formation to be. Let our material tasks be strengthened with the desire to accomplish that which is thou oh Lord would desire.

We realise our pain our trials our sufferings the agony of those unlike ourselves less fortunate than ourselves materially and spiritually bringing to us the desire to lift them from the darkness into the Light the comforting warmth the loving controlling influence of thy Power. Oh Lord oh most desirable God grant to me the wisdom to understand to desire to understand thy Desire that I materially and spiritually may be governed and inspired by the forces of thine own guiding influences enabling me, be I material or spiritual, to utilise the strength that thou dost grant to me for the upliftment and benefit of all who in thy faith would desire to dwell.

Oh ye of the material kind whose self preservation is thy one desire and thy one thought couldst thou but realise the insignificance of that worldly moment of thy material trials. It has been gathered from the words that to you have been spoken that material life or existence is but the beginning the preparation of that which is to follow very insignificant in accordance to that which is to be and will be.

Thus ye who desire to appease thy God must surely see the necessity of making thyself worthy of the Influence of a more desirable Force and it will be more readily understood that you aspire to be and succeed in becoming the better the better and greater the influence will be placed at your service thus enabling those who have proved themselves worthy of such an influence to progress materially and spiritually rising to spheres in accordance with their own desires to accept the influences controlling governing and uplifting in preparation prior to the entry of the spheres of progression.

These words are of many meanings and therein lie the acceptance or rejection of the desire to appease thy God.

How it must be understood thy material moments need not be undertaken as a task but should be enjoyed as a pleasure for is it not a pleasure to live materially and spiritually under the protecting guiding influence of God.

Ye who knoweth not and ye who dost think thou dost knoweth all of the beauty of life that lies beyond the grave that exists beyond the decay of thy material self thou dost knoweth all of the beauty and the Power of God's influence in a land and many material spheres beyond the conception of material imagination a material who can talk with God a material close to God a material in the world of God realise ye who were but the beginning of the beginning are but in preparation to what is to be realise the necessity of compliance if thou wouldst speedily enter a Kingdom of enlightenment thence progress speedily towards that which is intended. Ye are but a portion of that which thou art intended to become many pains, joys many sufferings of all kinds under the protecting influence of God.

Thus ye will realise that thou art but a portion something incomplete that will eventually join in a force spiritually and then materially there to form that materially what so God desires.

Now my friends you must realise that we cast aside first our material shell then our spiritual individual soul allowing the necessary preparations and understanding to assist us to rise in accordance with that which God desires. To lose eventually that cultured enlightened portion of receptive influence that was retained by each and every one of us as individuals. It is much more easily explained by using the example shall we say of the busy little Bee whose sole desire was to accumulate the honey not only for their own maintenance but for the support of their children. Thus the life of the Bee utilises its energy for the production and preparation of life that is to be.

Thus we have learnt in our lesson not to hoard for ourselves alone but to enable those without the strength to protect themselves so as to enjoy the fruits and share the pleasures of their own labours. Material friends from the Bee a worthy example for you to follow and to learn from could ye but follow in the footsteps of such an insect that many in their own vanity despise, couldst thou but be privileged to realise thine own insignificance in compliance with many such insects thou wouldst tread with thy head hung in shame for many things thou art wont to despise could a lesson bring to thine unenlightened brain. Couldst thou but realise the selfish greed of thy material kind thou wouldst hide in shame.

Oh God grant us that our intelligence may be strengthened that we may become as worthy as even a worm.
