The Spheres of Development

The Book of Enlightenment - A guide to a better life

Sunday 6th November 1938

Having registered the words of advice brought to you in various forms to endeavour you as a body to rise to the Spheres of development and evolution one must naturally become acquainted with the strangeness ere one can maintain a perfect balance between the material and that existence which is spiritual or termed spiritual. To the material mind many of our teachings are strange and looked upon as something from the great unknown. Really in the eyes of those who are privileged to be spiritual the conditions one finds therein is very much reversed. For it is the material that remains the Great Unknown. The material as previously explained is but the seed in the beginning an uncertain seed a changeable seed and a seed so much in infancy that the material is unknown to each other. Thou dost not recognise in they neighbour that which many times has led to disappointment. Dost not thy neighbour deceive thee in many ways. Ever before the material eyes when one dost pause to realise we recognise our inability to truly understand the neighbour or friend who has betrayed our trust so through material life one must recognise the truth that many a wolf doth hide in false garments, many a sinner condemned is a seed of goodness if developed. A seed that is sown shall we say for your better understanding, a seed sown in bad company misguided by the acceptance of material influences. So we recognise the darkness of materialism for with all the wisdom that thou dost credit thyself thou hast failed to recognise thyself thou art blind to the truth of thyself and thy neighbour.

With the development of the spiritual soul and the discarding of the material shell thou dost pass into a life where as in ye oftimes sing ye shall know each other better if it should be when thy flesh has rolled away. For thy flesh even when decayed remains in a germal state and passes again into the flesh through the soil and promotes the growth of the fruit and flowers. Thy flesh if it ever was thine promotes the growth of thy brother. The development of the soul then passes into the life of better understanding a life where thy neighbour is akin to thine own desires a sphere of harmony for the flowers and the fruits of the soil or the flesh are harvested together each recognising in the other a kindred soul each a spirit so termed of better understanding, free from deception thy eyes are opened thou dost learn to realise and recognise that is the beginning of life and that which ye are wont to call the flesh is the real spirit. The flesh is spiritual ever changing evaporating every moment but leaving behind a soil to nourish the development of that which is to be life known to you as a spirit.

Ye whose eyes are accustomed to the sphere of your immediate surroundings.

Solidity as solidity is termed or recognised in the material existence. For your enlightenment I speak of the Sphere in which the bloom of the soil the spiritual Sphere so termed you will find the same solidity recognised as such when thy spiritual eyes have become awakened from the darkness and the gloom. Thou art taught the truth of thy purpose and there recognise as if awakening from the darkness of materialism after the change that thou first experience thou awaken to recognise that life is good pure and acceptable. Life in the beginning when we are awaken to the realisation that we are what we are, when we share the confidence of knowledge and harmony we share thy love and the joys without sorrow of those who have really awakened to the truth of compliance with that wonderful influence that promoted the growth of our soul that grew, neglected sometime in the material soil or body.

The words that I speak to you are in preparation for that which is to be. Thus for your enlightenment I describe the various Spheres that soon ye will learn to recognise.

I have just returned from the Sphere of Realisation witnessed the passing of many of the material kind, the shedding of the garments the flesh, the awakening of the spirit to life observed the smile of contentment amid joy on those that are privileged to awaken in the light. To see those who enter in darkness to slumber to rest as they are weary tired and confused unable to recognise after the existence of material contradiction.

Fortunate are those who trust in God. The ways of trust are many the Power and thy faith are the same. Those who trusted in the Lord do not perish or slumber in the darkness but enter the Sphere of Light not a lonely joy but a joy shared in harmony of those who partake in the activities to strengthen the weed that are lost in the weakness of their own acceptance.

It is a joy and a pleasure to share the duties of correction. It is a joy to realise the beginning of life whence thou were taught to believe in the death which never was for as I have described that recognised as material in reality is but spiritual each component a life and each life comprising a solidity thou recognise as self a life creating life and destroying life. Thus we die to live in that called material but we live to die in that which ye call the spirit.
