Lesson VI:
The Outer Realm
In
this lesson you will deepen your experience of Divine consciousness.
I will also give you additional suggestions of how to expand your practice.
You will work with a very specialized outer realm that will help you in
the deepening of your experience. As you proceed with the practice, you
will internalize this outer realm more and more so that eventually it will
no longer be necessary.
If
you proceed as I am going to outline below, you succeed with ease in
making the consciousness of being One a permanent attitude. Such attitude
will give you dominion over the energies of a higher order (spirits) that
you will contact during your magical evolution.
You
set up your outer realm in a form that reflects the alignment of the
four elements.
At
first you trace a circle around yourself in which you are going to
stand or sit. You imagine this circle of being part of a protective sphere
that surrounds you. As you progress in your magical evolution you will
expand the characteristics of this protective sphere. Consequently your
power in dealing with complex energies of a higher order (spirits) will
increase, especially when you are going to use the commanding power of
Divine consciousness. In front of your circle you have your table, or altar.
The altar is nothing but an individual switchboard that serves as a structural
link to the specific realms, or energies, which you intend to explore or
use. In the practice that you are going to do, your altar, of course, has
to be a structural representation of the aligning of the four elements
within yourself and an expression of the structure of the Divine name.
Therefore your altar will have utensils that represent the four elements.
These utensils should be arranged in a way that reflects their aligning.
You set your table up as follows:
Draw a circle on the table. You may use a cord and lay out a circle with
the cord. Inside the circle you trace an equilateral triangle. This is
your triangle of manifestation. Leave enough space between the triangle
and the circumference of the circle for the utensils of the four elements.
Put one or two altar candles inside the triangle. Two candles especially
are of use to control and see the energies that you are going to connect
with.
Inside the circle, but outside the triangle, you put the utensils that
represent the four elements. Put the elemental triangle with the candle
to the upper right. Put the elemental pentagon with the cup of water or
wine to the upper left. Put the elemental square with the incense (and
dagger if you like) to the lower left. Finally you put the elemental pentagram
with the crystal (or dish with earth) to the lower right.
You
can use this basic circle for many other types of work. In each case
this setup will represent your oneness with the Divine.
Your
next step is the charging of your outer realm with the energies that
you are going to use. You do so by first charging the circle that surrounds
you. While imagining this sphere that surrounds you, you know that this
sphere is protection. Then you take your power rod (or dagger) and trace
the circle on the altar. You may do the tracing with your index finger
that points toward the periphery of the circle. While you trace the circle
you project energy into it. It builds up like a sphere of which the material
circle that you have traced is the equator. Next you trace the triangle
in the center of the circle. As you trace the triangle with your finger
or power rod or dagger, you visualize strongly that energy flows into the
lines of the triangle. Light the two altar candles. Proceed to light the
candle that represents the fire element. Project fire energy into the elemental
triangle of fire. Imagine the elemental triangle being a gate to the cosmic
realms of fire. Draw the red fire energy from the universe while you inhale
and project it into the elemental triangle of fire while you exhale. Proceed
with the charging of the elemental pentagon of water with the blue energy
of the water element. Charge water energy into the pentagon until you feel
that this is enough. Proceed the same way with the air element and with
the earth element. After you have finished with charging the four elemental
talismans you proceed to imagine their energies flowing into the triangle
in the center of your altar, mainly into the area between the two candles.
At
first your work may not appear to you as perfect as you would have
expected. Be assured that with practice your methods of drawing and projecting
energies will gain in intensity and power.
The Inner Realm
Now
you use what you have learned in the previous lessons to establish
your inner realm. In a meditative state you see yourself in your favorite
location. This may be the peak of a mountain, a clearing in the woods,
a temple, or whatever other location you choose. You know that you are
the ruler, or Divine being, of your universe and that you have all elemental
energies available and that you can draw and project any of these energies
of the universe.
In
front of yourself you notice a flaming red triangle that is the gate
to the realms of the fire element. You see Salamanders and spiritual fire
as well as many forms of fire. You have the awareness that you are One
with your will and with the causal forces of the universe. You know that
you are connected with the causal plane, or the world of emanation.
To
your left side you see a watery blue pentagon that is the gate to the
realm of the water element. You see Undines and spiritual water as well
as many forms of water. You have the awareness that you are One with your
emotions and with the astral forces of the universe. You know that you
are connected with the astral plane, or the world of formation.
Behind
yourself you see an airy yellow square that is the gate to the realm
of the air element. You see Sylphs and spiritual air as well as many forms
of air. You have the awareness that you are One with your mind and with
the mental forces of the universe. You know that you are connected with
the mental plane, or the world of creation.
To
your right side you see an earthy brown pentagram that is the gate
to the realm of the earth element. You see Gnomes and spiritual earth as
well as many forms of earth. You have the awareness that you are One with
your consciousness and with the material forces of the universe. You know
that you are connected with the material plane, or the world of forms.
You
know that you are dominating these worlds, or planes. You draw the
energies from the four gates toward yourself where they merge. You may
repeat the mantra "YOD HE VAU HE" several times while connecting each of
the letters with the corresponding element as you speak out the Divine
name. This strengthens your awareness that you are One with the divine
and that the energies of the universe are under your command. Remain in
this state of consciousness for as long as you wish. Be aware that the
Divine spark is within yourself. Be aware that this your divinity is present
even at times when you are not consciously aware of this fact.
End
this meditative state whenever you feel like doing so. You know that
this state remains a reality for you in your nonconscious realm.
Group Practice
Very
powerful is group practice of Oneness. In such a practice an experienced
person leads the energy projection into the altar. Such energy projection,
of course, is very powerful since all members of the group project energies.
Then the group leader guides the group through the meditation of Oneness
in the inner realm. A very powerful practice is to connect the inner realms
of all participants into One! This leads to an experience of a joint consciousness
of being Divine! All members of the group are One!
Practice with the Inner Realm only!
The
outer realm is near indispensable at the beginning of your work. However
you may practice at any time by simply working from within your inner realm.
As you progress you may achieve the consciousness of Oneness simply by
repeating the mantra "YOD HE VAU HE" several times.
Projection of Light
The
projecting of Divine Light has many purposes such as healing and protection.
If a person is grounded in Divine consciousness and has received the appropriate
initiations, he or she can project Divine Light to help others achieve
their consciousness of being One at a more rapid rate. Very powerful is
the practice in which several persons who have Divine consciousness project
at one person. We are practicing this in group seminars. In such seminars
the participants achieve their state of cosmic consciousness within one
weekend of intensive practice.
Conclusion
After
you have read this course or, better yet, if you have worked through
these lessons, you can now understand the crucial importance of Oneness
for your overall success in metaphysical training. Now you can understand
why Oneness is to be at the beginning of any meaningful metaphysical training.
Cosmic consciousness helps you in many ways. Above all, with this consciousness
you will act from a Divine perspective rather than from a limited human
perspective.
The
advantages of being One are obvious especially in metaphysical work.
Persons who are One need no longer be in danger of getting possessed by
low astral beings who pose as high spiritual teachers or evolved warriors
of ancient times in order to entice their victims. Such beings are constantly
trying to seize a human body so that they can manifest on the material
plane. Oneness at the beginning of your training protects you against these
dangers for good!
Oneness
will allow you a much faster overall progress in any type of metaphysical
path!
In
the confidence that this course will be a decisive help on your path,
I remain
Yours in Oneness of Cosmic consciousness
