We Call Upon Beloved Arcturus and Diana to nourish the Essence and Qualities of this 14
Rules Study Program today, in RHYTHM. We know that We are Encouraged, Inspired,
Supported, and Moved to maintain the Truth of this Study with Djwhal Kuhl’s Presence, and
that it proceeds with the regularity with which We breathe each breath, as We inhale the
precious Pranic Breath of Akasha Life, and with which We exhale all impurities to be swept
up by the Violet Transmuting Flame blazing in, through and all around us. We call forth the
Elemental Grace Alliance Council and the I Am Presences’ of the Sun of Even Pressure
Council to join with us now! We call forth Beloved Chohan St Germain and the Goddess of
Justice, Lady Portia, Archangel Zadkiel and Amethyst to imbue us with Radiation of the
Qualities and Virtues of Transmutation through the Violet Flame, Invocation, Diplomacy,
Music Arts and Justice. With unbound enthusiasm that qualifies the Manifestation of this
Invocation without falter, We express this demand in the Violet Transmuting Flame, knowing
that It comes Blazing on Our Behalf, and that Master Rakocsy Magnifies, Amplifies,
Strengthens and Intensifies this Decree 1,000-Fold.

DAILY PRAYER BEFORE I STUDY AND GO ABOUT


MY FATHER’S AND MOTHER’S BUSINESS

O Divine Mother, Father, may we actualize through intention and extension our body vehicle,
Singing Eternally before the Throne with the Words: Kodoish, Kodoish, Kodoish Adonai
'Tsebayoth. May the Hierarchy and the Bands of Heavenly Angels Sing with us on earth as it is
in Heaven. May the Holiness of Our Brothers and Sisters in the Higher Worlds be with us in
every heartbeat and every thought-form. We Pray that all of the Letters in the Language of Light
be Eternally Expressed in this Holy Prayer and Song Ceaselessly for us.
KODOISH, KODOISH, KODOISH, ADONAI ‘TSEBAYOTH (3 times)

THE GREAT INVOCATION


From the Point of Light within the Mind of God
Let Light Stream forth into the minds of men.
Let Light descend on Earth.

From the Point of Love within the Heart of God


Let Love Stream forth into the hearts of men.
May Christ return to Earth.

From the Centre where the


Will of God is Known
Let Purpose Guide the little wills of men –
The Purpose which the Masters Know and Serve.

From the Centre which we call the race of men


Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door where inequity dwells.

Let Light and Love and Power Restore the Plan on Earth.
And So It Is and It Is Done!

4. Behind the group there stands the Door. Before them opens out the Way.
Note how this passage reverses the usual presentation. Hitherto, in the occult books,
the Door of Initiation has been presented as ever moving forward ahead of the initiate.
He passes through door after door into a wider experience and expansion of
consciousness. But in the initiate consciousness, after the first two initiations, this is
not the realization. It is simply the adhering to an old form of symbolism with the
implied limitations of the truth. I would here remind you that the third initiation is
regarded by the Hierarchy as the first major initiation, and that the first and second
initiations are initiations of the Threshold. For the bulk of humanity, these first two
initiations will for a very long time constitute major initiatory experiences, but in the
life and realization of the initiate-soul, they are not. After the two initiations of the
threshold have been undergone the attitude of the initiate changes and he sees
possibilities and factors and revelations which have hitherto been totally unrealized
and unknown, even to his consciousness at his highest moments.

The door of initiation looms large in the consciousness of the neophyte; the higher
Way is the determining factor in the life of the initiate of the third degree. It is the
Transfiguration; and a new glory pours through the transfigured initiate who has been
released from every type of grip by either the personality or the soul. For the first
time, the goal of the higher Way and the attainment of Nirvana (as the Oriental calls
it) appears before him, and he knows that no forms and no spiritual complexes and no
pull by either soul or form, or by both united, can have any effect upon his attaining
his final destination.

I would like for a moment to refer here to the door symbology as the initiate begins
to grasp the inner meaning of those simple words. For long the teaching, given in the
clear cold light, anent the door and the emphasis put upon the presentation of the door
lying ahead of the aspirant has been made familiar, but that has been working with
the lower aspects of the symbolism, even if aspirants did not realize it; they have been
taught the fact of the light in the head, which is the personality correspondence to the
clear cold light to which I refer. At the very center of that light, as many aspirants
know theoretically or factually by inconstant experience, is a center or point of dark
indigo blue—midnight blue. Note the significance of this in view of what I have been
saying anent the "dark night," the midnight hour, the zero hour in the life of the soul.
That center is in reality an opening, a door leading somewhere, a way of escape, a
place through which the soul imprisoned in the body can emerge and pass into higher
states of consciousness, untrammeled by form limitations; it has also been called "the
funnel or the channel for the sound"; it has been named the "trumpet through which
the escaping A.U.M. can pass."

The ability to use this door or channel is brought about by the practice of alignment;
hence the emphasis laid upon this exercise in the attempt to train aspirants and
disciples.

Once alignment has been achieved, it will be realized (remembering the symbolism
of the head, the light and the central opening) that many occasions arise in meditation
when "behind the group there stands the door; before them opens out the Way." This
is the lower correspondence of the higher initiate-experience with which our rule is
dealing.
Again, this time in relation to the soul, comes the repetition of the discovery of the
Door, its use and its appearance, finally, behind the initiate. This time the door must
be found upon the mental plane, and not as earlier upon the etheric level; this is
brought about by the aid of the soul and of the lower mind and through the revealing
power of the clear cold light of the reason. When discovered, the "revelation of a
terrible though beautiful experiment" faces the initiate. He finds that this time
alignment is not his need, but the definite undertaking of a creative work—the
building of a bridge between the door which lies behind and the door which lies ahead.
This involves the construction of what is technically the Antahkarana, the rainbow
bridge. This is built by the disciple-in-training upon the basis of his past experience;
it is anchored in the past and firmly grounded in the highest, rightly oriented aspect
of the personality. As the disciple then creatively works, he finds that there is a
reciprocal action on the part of the Presence, the Monad—the unity which stands
behind the Door. He discovers that one span of the bridge (if I might so call it) is
being built or pushed forward from the other side of the gulf separating him from
experience in the life of the Spiritual Triad. This Spiritual Triad is essentially, to the
initiate, what the threefold personality is to the man in physical incarnation.

I wonder if I have succeeded in giving you at least a general idea of the possibilities
lying ahead of the disciple, and incited you to definite conscious response to those
possibilities. I cannot do other than speak in terms of consciousness, even though the
life of the Triad—leading in its turn to identification with the Monad, as the
personality life leads eventually to soul control and expression—has naught to do with
consciousness or sensitivity as those terms are commonly understood. Yet remember
how, in all my teachings upon occult unfoldment, I have used the word
IDENTIFICATION. This is the only word I have found which can in any way convey
the complete unity which is finally achieved by those who develop a sense of unity,
and who refuse to accept isolation; separateness then fades out entirely. The isolated
unity achieved is unity with the Whole, with Being in its totality (and this cannot as
yet convey much to you).
