The  Angelic  Proclamation

How shall man in this day restored be?

Let it be by the Word of God.

Let it be by His kingdom, by His power, to His glory.

Let no human desire remain.

Let no human doctrine be kept, or belief sustained.

Let all human religions and temporal systems

pass from the earth,

leaving only God revealed in man restored.

This is the Word of God spoken this day

by His angels in agreement on earth:

Glory to God in the highest!

Martin Cecil

This  Compost  —  Walt  Whitman

             

          

Something startles me where I thought I was safest,

I withdraw from the still woods I loved,

I will not go now on the pastures to walk,

I will not strip the clothes from my body to meet my lover the sea,

I will not touch my flesh to the earth as to other flesh to renew me.

O how can it be that the ground itself does not sicken?

How can you be alive you growths of spring?

How can you furnish health you blood of herbs, roots, orchards, grain?

Are they not continually putting distemper’d corpses within you?

Is not every continent work’d over and over with sour dead?

Where have you disposed of their carcasses?

Those drunkards and gluttons of so many generations?

Where have you drawn off all the foul liquid and meat?

I do not see any of it upon you to-day, or perhaps I am deceiv’d,

I will run a furrow with my plough, I will press my spade through the sod and turn it up underneath,

I am sure I shall expose some of the foul meat.

Behold this compost! behold it well!

Perhaps every mite has once form’d part of a sick person—yet behold!

The grass of spring covers the prairies,

The bean bursts noiselessly through the mould in the garden,

The delicate spear of the onion pierces upward,

The apple-buds cluster together on the apple-branches,

The resurrection of the wheat appears with pale visage out of its graves,

The tinge awakes over the willow-tree and the mulberry-tree,

The he-birds carol mornings and evenings while the she-birds sit on their nests,

The young of poultry break through the hatch’d eggs,

The new-born of animals appear, the calf is dropt from the cow, the colt from the mare,

Out of its little hill faithfully rise the potato’s dark green leaves,

Out of its hill rises the yellow maize-stalk, the lilacs bloom in the dooryards,

The summer growth is innocent and disdainful above all those strata of sour dead.

What chemistry!

That the winds are really not infectious,

That this is no cheat, this transparent green-wash of the sea which is so amorous after me,

That it is safe to allow it to lick my naked body all over with its tongues,

That it will not endanger me with the fevers that have deposited themselves in it,

That all is clean forever and forever,

That the cool drink from the well tastes so good,

That blackberries are so flavorous and juicy,

That the fruits of the apple-orchard and the orange-orchard, 

   that melons, grapes, peaches, plums, will none of them poison me,

That when I recline on the grass I do not catch any disease,

Though probably every spear of grass rises out of what was once a catching disease.

Now I am terrified at the Earth, it is that calm and patient,

It grows such sweet things out of such corruptions,

It turns harmless and stainless on its axis, with such endless successions of diseas’d corpses,

It distills such exquisite winds out of such infused fetor,

It renews with such unwitting looks its prodigal, annual, sumptuous crops,

It gives such divine materials to men, and accepts such leavings from them at last.

Ascension  and  Spiritual  Telekinesis

Alan Hammond

We find emerging in our consciousness that as we come to know the King, we love His world. Evidence of that is that we would not wish to exploit or hurt any part of it. On the contrary, we love everything in it and long to draw forth the fullest Divine potential from every element in it, being healer, educator and friend to the Whole. 

Each of us probably find a fair portion of our time involved in purifying our heart, because this really must be the first order of business. Something has gone wrong in certain levels of human consciousness. When I say “gone wrong,” the experience of heaven has been excluded and something else is present. Currently, the focus of a true spiritual education should be purification of the heart and orientation of the mind in Spirit. 

A core element in this process is to stop judging. If we judge, it invariably pulls us out of the state of heaven. So to deal with judgments as they arise in consciousness is not just a diligent chore that we have been exhorted to participate in, but is one of the most thrilling, re-creative occupations in which Angels can be involved. Most human beings judge without realizing it. They just do it! We can let unconscious processes of distorted function such as judging become conscious, so that they can be discarded. This is very exciting, because we cannot change any shade of attitude or feeling in consciousness about anyone or anything without affecting our whole world. 

I’d like to explore a little more this matter of the magic of the human consciousness in which we have our experience. We’re involved in a re- creative process that basically uses the same principles as the original creative process. The First Chapter of Genesis outlines this process and, as we come to know the Truth, we know there is a tremendous amount contained there. Each Day of Creation pertains to stages of re- creation in the restoration of the consciousness and experience of man: 

“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. “And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. “And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. “And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.” (Genesis 1:1-5) 

The evening and morning is always the First Day. The whole process starts in the dark, which relates to unconscious mechanisms. So in our re-creative process, working in the night in the unconscious is far more potent than we may have realized. Man was banished from the Garden and then had to perspire to achieve anything. We have to be restored to our true place where we become aware of mechanisms and instruments of action available when we are in true Identity in that true place. This does not involve effort in the usual sense. 

In the First Day there is the experience of just becoming aware of being on Earth—the entry into time and space. The Second Day is about the firmament—the waters above and the waters below. In the Second Day we begin to work with consciousness. Then in the Third Creative Day the dry land appears and all the seeds. This relates to the Divine collective body (the planet) and the mechanisms of activity related to that body. We’ve certainly moved past the First Day. We know we’re alive in the dimensional world of time and space, but may still be sorting out the waters above and the waters below, clarifying the heaven. Then we come to the Fourth Creative Day, which I’m going to read about: 

“And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: “And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. “And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.  “And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, “And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. “And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.” (Genesis 1:14-19)

"The greater light to rule the day” and the “lesser light to rule the night” could relate to a certain emphasis of masculine function and feminine function. The “lesser light” doesn’t mean to say it’s a lesser role. It relates to the darkness, the subconscious and many mechanisms of creative function. We see here Divine Man and Woman consciously reemerging in the heaven. Rulership from the heaven and communion in heaven is indicated here. 

In clarifying the subconscious there is personal clarification, and this allows one to ascend. There is ascension out of involvement in the Earth and movement into the heaven, and in that Identity there is authority. This authority isn’t exercised as human beings have known it, involving external imposition. Ascending into heaven as a star in the firmament of the heaven, one becomes aware of oneness. There is One Spirit, one energy animating everything everywhere, but the human consciousness has not been a conscious part of that overall mechanism. 

Being above the heaven, so that our Identity is in the undimensional state of qualitative Being—that’s where we really are. We can discern the manifestation of that undimensional quality of Being throughout the centuries. For example, when we see Jesus exemplifying qualities of Character, we say, “He expressed the Truth, the true Tone.” We recognize that Sprit as our Spirit. That Spirit manifested two thousand years ago, and yet here it is again, now, manifesting through these little piles of dust. This is who I Am. Before Jesus was, I Am—this Character.

Coming out of this stature and quality of Character that I Am, we stop judging when discordant thoughts and feelings arise in consciousness. Just to stop judging is not enough. The positive side of “not judging” would be acceptance, only that’s a kind of milquetoast state. Love would be the positive expression of nonjudgment. We know there are people or circumstances that we have been judging for ages; that pulls us out of heaven. But if we ascend above the heaven to the undimensional quality of Being that we are, and are resolved to exemplify this magnificent quality of Divine Character, we can begin to accommodate people who irk, criticize or throw us for a loop. Expressing from this magnificent Being that I Am, that’s more than nonjudgment. I let others be however they are, because they do not have the power to change who I Am and my resolve to be, in expression, who I Am. It’s only fear of those people and those things that pulls us out into hell or purgatory. The way to transcend judgment is to be this magnificent Spirit and express it—not just stand there unmoved, but pour some- thing greater of qualitative Being into our world. The greatest excite- ment and fulfillment is to be above it all. And there is more to do after getting above it all. Ascension is thrilling! 

I emphasized earlier the excitement of becoming conscious of areas of judgment in one’s own heart and mind, because you cannot change ever so slightly a destructive quality of attitude towards someone with- out changing the lines of force emerging through your subconscious mind. “The evening and the morning” is the beginning of the next Day. These changes are far more potent than we have suspected, because the lines of radiant force that move out from our minds and hearts draw into creative manifestation the world around us. 

Therefore, without going “out there” to change anything, the throne is within. The throne is the consciousness. And as the spiritual King upon the throne, the conscious King begins to align every thought and feeling with My Being. Then I begin to re-create the manifest world—the day. The day comes, and made manifest in that light is a world and experience consonant with the nature of My radiation, My Presence. Therefore, there is re-creation that extends beyond, because where does My world end? The mind sees a certain parameter of vision. But being a star in the firmament of heaven, My dominion extends beyond. There is Divine Technology referred to in the Third Day, with the appearance of grasses, seeds and trees. They’re not there just for visual pleasure but are part of a Technology that should be under the control of man’s consciousness. 

Man, this Earth, is the body and the mechanism of the Spirit. The consciousness of that Spirit is housed in Man’s consciousness. All these things we see around us are instruments of re-creative and creative influence, not only in the Earth. There are obviously internal mechanisms in these earthly forms, but they also relate to the quality of radiation from this planet—this Archangelic Body, the Earth—into the larger creative field of the solar system. There are not just cows wandering around out there; they are channels of radiation.

Ascending above the heaven, releasing qualities of Spirit in every moment, we begin to be aware of mechanisms that the mind heretofore has been unconscious of when scrambling around the Earth in the lower levels of heaven. Human consciousness is aware of what it thinks of as supernatural powers, like telekinesis—the ability to move objects with the mind. Never mind trying to arbitrarily move a glass with your mind! The power of telekinesis is operational for everyone all the time. We are moving our whole world around all the time, drawing and repelling things by reason of the quality of radiation moving from us! Although largely unconscious in most people, the power of telekinesis is an active process.

As we ascend into greater awareness of Divine Identity and our sole concern is not to manipulate anything for ourselves but to play our part in the One Spirit, in the one mechanism—that is accomplishing God’s will. We eliminate the fear that tries to push away “adverse” things that move towards us. Nor do we try to hang on to things as they move away, because we are part of the One Spirit that is coordinating every- thing everywhere. We become consciously one with that movement. This takes all the struggle out of life. The perspiration begins at least to lessen as we ascend. 

What more thrilling experience of the expression of our creative genius is there, than letting this Spirit come into the consciousness of man to reattune it with Cosmic Spirit and Intelligence? As that attunement is achieved, Spirit can move all the way through, and patterns and functions inherent in Spirit can be translated into forms in the lower levels. Those levels of substance then have consciousness of the nature and fundamental activity of that Spirit, which I Am. We don’t have to go anywhere. I Am already everywhere. I Am focused in my Divine radiant activity into the Whole here and now, and I do it by expressing who I Am.
