War

The Book of Enlightenment - A guide to a better life

Saturday 27th August 1938

War. At the moment I feel and breathe the stench of materialism seeing in the body a contaminated mass with one thought one desire supremacy. War, Greed. Is it not strange, ye who are material have but to cast thine eyes and where thou dost gaze be it in the heavens or the earth in the insect or germal existence that thine eyes dost fail to recognise the predominant urge to possess. Supremacy. The desire to gather the fruits so that thou may possess in abundance that which is not thine. Let us analyse the foundation that createth the disturbance and brought but starvation and disaster as the fruits of our endeavours. It is a force aye a force that createth the urge the incentive to build within self the Power of force. Ye as described will have noted in the beginning of the beginning be it flesh or the fruits of thy garden there is War. Does not the storms and the winds destroy thy fruit. Let us deal first with the garden of flowers, yes the soil is fertile and well prepared invigorated by the warm rain bringing life that has been suspended deep in the darkness and there in slumber throughout the chill blasts of the winter rested in security, awakened by the Spring sunshine, there to blossom speedily to firmly build a root taking advantage of the nourishment supplied by God and built a protecting force that defies the enemy or winds or storms. Ye as materials are but akin but do ye take advantage of the Power of Evolution that is the sap of your progression or do ye linger in idleness and desire to slumber to awaken too late to realisation that the storms of destruction have overtaken thee and thine who are unprepared, undernourished still slumbering in the darkness of misunderstanding. Ere ye possess the force of determination but not the wisdom to govern and control that which ye have termed determination. Determination is the seed of that which is known to ye as Will.

Let us better to understand the forces of the creation of this so called Will of determination. First we recognise its mighty Power described as indestructible when supported by determination perseverance steadily onwards marching forward irregardless of the foe, heeding not blasts of opposition feeling not the stings or thorns onwards, onwards ever onwards, pausing not, gathering and creating a mighty force onwards ever onwards nothing is recognised that can retard the steadly onward march. Mountains and storms may struggle in their endeavour to retard the progress of that onward march but unheeding unconquerable continuous in the face of opposition, to conquer that would influence the progression of determination. That my friends is a Power of a mighty army gathered within the balance of progression.

Evolution under the guiding influence of better material and spiritual acceptance.

Let us return to the soils of our slumbers again and endeavour to visualise a march governed and controlled by that influence of greed. It must be understood in the beginning of life material and spiritual and the life of the flowers thy fields of life that thou has yet failed to recognise. It is as ever has been a seed nourished by the breezes or temptations a desire to possess. It is true in thine infancy in the beginning of the tiny seed of determination, determination of progression, but thy slumbering minds have failed to awaken to the guiding influences. Thus thy determination reinforced by the Powers of Materialism have amassed in a destruction of that misguided influence that under the guiding influence corrected under the tuition of thy advisors would have led you to the light.

This power that thou hast developed is turned upon thine own self a power ungovernable a weed in the garden whose talons penetrate thine own material flesh a Power growing wild uncultured undirected leading to death and darkness murdering thine own soul and condemning thine own material flesh to the agonies of thine own seeking. The Powers of Hell of thine own making. Influences guided by those in darkness like ye who have failed to understand and in thy slumbers thy undernourished developments awakes too late that thou hast slumbered too long.

Yea a force that requires thy attention for thine own development. Ye are well advised not to linger not to sleep ere the turmoil and destruction of the opposing winds destroy thine own developed blossom.

Ye who would become a flower of perfection need but have the ever conquering Power of Determination and I am privileged to instruct you in the first stages of preparation of how to apply and how to receive that which will become the unconquerable force of the evils that retard thy progress by the acceptance of that which is akin to thine own Spheres. This I will through the medium of thy Teachers.
