The Spheres
The Book of Enlightenment - A guide to a better life
Sunday 13th March 1938
It is true as oftimes been spoken, we have our material lives to live. That which is not recognised is the many lives we are permitted to live. As ye have written our lives are many, material and spiritual each spiritual governing material, thus we enter sphere after sphere as a material spiritual combination. Ye are wont to recognise only the sphere of your immediate existence. Ye who have laboured and progressed in various stages of material life fail to recognise the truth of your previous existence, the material mind of your present acceptance recognises only that within the sphere of their developed facilities to recognise only that which they are accustomed and developed to recognise. It has been fully explained the minutest germal existence liveth a material life a life recognising only self as ye are wont to do, a life within self a germal life speaking a language, recognising that which the facilities and the Power of God permitted therein to receive a material life akin to receive what ye recognise but fail to recognise the material body is no more to you that the germal body of your previous sojourn in a sphere unknown. But the germal governed and controlled amassed together in harmony in the Power of God to build the assembly that is recognised as germal, a self, the ever changing self, that which is ye lives for a moment and dies. Forever changing, ever changing with the development and care or neglect in compliance or rejection of the Spiritual Self.
Thus we realise in my brief narrative that solid assembly made germal or that which ye recognise in the sphere of thy acceptance, live and die, change and develop and but form the root or the soil of that which ever remains thy Spiritual Self. The same Self that governed and controlled that which existed as material in the germal spheres and exists in thy present sphere to receive in return enlightenment and upliftment from the enlightened spheres. Many such powers of enlightenment are transmitted for your acceptance but in your greed and desire to live for the moment in what you have been taught is the one and only material existence ye are wont to invariably reject the sun of enlightenment. Ye have and will always have your lives to live as you have had in the past. How shall we live? Shall we comply with the prompting of the Higher Forces or shall we slumber in our present existence and desire not progression till progression desire us.
Ye are offered the waters of life upliftment knowledge. Ye who desire to rise from thy bed and drink. If thou art weary and desire not thy progression 'tis thy privilege to slumber but cry ye not when thy lips require the sustaining fluid of everlasting progression.
If in thy slumbers thou hast failed to answer the Clarion call and the great assembly of progression and evolution it is because in thy stubborn resistance thy lack of determination to listen to the words of wisdom, thou hast failed to amass the knowledge that thy life needs, nourishment thy Spiritual life needs thou hast none other. Yes 'tis well to recognise the advisability of living our present existence but to remember that which lives forever is the very thing that ye neglect to live, that thing forgotten and oftimes despised is your own Spiritual Soul that is Self.
Wouldst thou proclaim the waters in the vase that nourishes the flowers that thou hast gathered from the garden. Wouldst thou say the water was Self or the flower was the spirit of the water. Can ye not recognise the Sun the Climatic conditions as you term it, the flower is supported by the ever changing soil but ye cannot in thy wisdom recognise the soil as the flower ye that is what ye do by exclaiming the body as the flower. Everything has its place a duty to perform, each particle of the soil is part of an assembly be it earthly soil or soil of the flesh but that soil we cannot recognise as Self.
As Self changes would be many, it is thy Spiritual soul that must live. Must that Soul live for soil or shall it live for God and the upliftment and enlightenment of the Soul to follow then recognise the Soul not the body. Protect thy Soul and the Soul shall protect the body. Allow not the body to engulf the Soul. That is the acceptance of the adverse to progression. By protecting thine own Soul and developing thine own Soul thou dost aspire to harmonise and thus connect with higher Influences akin to the Influences of thine own Self thy Spiritual Soul that influence of the germal assembly of thine own soil thus as we sow so shall we also reap. Sow ye not and ye shall gather not the harvest unsown. Thus we recognise the advisability of learning to understand the Garden of development and what a wise decision that will be for many when they recognise that the greed of possession is but the retarding weed in the development and acceptance of the Influence of God.
Self what is this thing
This self whence does it Spring
We live the ever years changing
Infants young now ageing
Is it Soul is it flesh
Weaved together makes a mesh
Of wonder as to what we are
With the acceptance and the realisation of God's Holy Influence we join in Harmony in our faith and in our trust in the jurisdiction of the Judgement of our God. By harmonising we join forces with higher Power, Powers that control the destiny of our spheral learning. We recognise that the Soul is Self and that Self by the laws of progression must not be allowed to lie dormant in a sphere of non progression in a sphere of no purpose. We learn in the darkness of realisation the necessity of compliance the necessity of harmonising and recognising the Power the sustaining force that bids ye rise from thy slumbers to the land of peace and rest. There to harmonise with the Forces of God as a Power a progressive Power and therein in thy sphere of thy present acceptance thou must also recognise the advisability of journeying in harmony and balance with progressive forces. It is the forces of Higher Sphere that governs and controls for the evolution, the upliftment, the development of the acceptance of spiritual enlightenment receiving the Force the Power of God. Thou dost not only protect thy flesh but thou dost provide the enlightenment of thy Spiritual Soul. The Power that granted to the powerful is for thy acceptance also thou join in harmony and accept the fruit remembering always that there are fruits of God and fruits of evil. Thine own desires oftimes casting aside the sustaining fruits of progression necessary for thou to acquire.
Thy trials are many for as in the sphere that in which thou now dost dwell wert thou eased of the burden of recognition of trials to thee unrecognised, unknown thou wouldst pass in ignorance of the trials and temptations that go to amass the determination of thy development. A kindred force from the Council of Power brought unto ye a message of necessity that the foundation of determination was likened unto a grain of fine sand and could with care be built into a mountain. But the neglect to support the one small grain unbalanced the assembly of thine original intentions. It is hard for ye in thy Sphere to recognise the advisability of the gigantic task of compiling those grains of sand but could ye be stirred with the acceptance of the possibility of such a task then my material friends your material troubles would melt as the snow when faced with the powerful rays of the sun. The snows that a few brief hours ago apparently so firm so solid destroyed by rays from the influence of the sun so far away. Learn then my friend to gather the rays that are ever around ye, the supporting influences of kindred souls. Harmonise and in a body thy task to place that tiny grain of sand will be to thee no burden when reinforced by so many willing hands of friends. Canst thou not recognise that thy material Sphere is governed by a Force recognised to the material body as self. I say unto ye that body is governed and controlled by Disciples of God and if the Disciples of God play so prominent part of the governing and controlling of a body if thou have the faith and trust to place thy balance in time and harmony with the force of Higher Forces thy progress will be a road, a road of splendour and not of thorns. A doubt and the movement of a grain of sand creates a huge disturbance then the advisability of working in harmony with those willing helpers ever desirous of extending a welcoming hand to a higher sphere of acceptance. Thus with the joining of forces we become immune from the worries and temptations that retard our faltering steps portrayed to ye in the darkness of the Sphere of your previous meeting. You were privileged to connect with spheres of temptation offering that which ye desire, kindred souls in darkness that brought to ye a promise akin to many who desire to live but for a moment and suffer the pain of darkness for years of their own seeking submitting to temptation.
We bring ye a message of truth it is for ye to choose a garment that will protect ye from the blasts and obstruction of misunderstanding.
If the Powers of evil, the ease of acceptance is but the knowledge of the lowliness of the Spheres of thy present enlightenment, but recognise that evil cannot hope with their lack of knowledge to give you the beautiful harvest that God, the controlling Force of all existence can give to those who harmonise with the desire to comply to live and progress for the enlightenment not of self material or spiritual but of those unenlightened souls in darkness.
Thus in conclusion there shall be written that from the words that have been spoken we realise the necessity of progression and to harmonise with kindred souls of higher learning and wisdom, thus adding another grain of sand to the mountain of determination in our endeavours to appease our God each day each hour. Let us intake the beauties of our labour from our pinnacle of splendour of the work the mountain of our labours. There we are privileged to breath the purer air uncontaminated by the soil of greed, casting aside the heavy material burden, accepting the delightful knowledge of our Spherial knowledge of progression each day. Fortification against the breezes of opposition, freeing ourselves from the weeds and joining forces with the heavenly Spheres of evolution of progress. Power and Strength Protection in all thy Spheres. Protect thine own castle by thy Faith and Trust and thy desire to comply and harmonise with the disciples of truth who endeavour to harmonise with Christ the Son of God, the only controlling force of Progression.
