| Esoteric Psychology I - Section One - II. Certain Questions and their Answers |
| The blue ray of devotion passes now into the violet of what we
term the ceremonial ray. What do these words mean? Simply that the great Musician of the
universe is moving the [122] keys, is sounding another note and thus bringing in another
turn of the wheel, and swinging into the arc of manifestation the ray of violet, the great
note G. These rays bring with them - in every kingdom in nature - all that is attuned to
them: Human beings, devas of order high or low, elementals of a desirable or undesirable
nature, flowers, fruits, and vegetable life of a certain kind, and animals and forms of
varying species. It is the passing out of a ray that signals the ultimate extinction of
some particular form, some type of animal life, and leads to some vegetable aspect coming
to an end. Hence the confusion among the scientists at this time. The process of coming in
is slow, as is all work in nature, and as is the process of passing out. Simultaneously
with the cyclic birth and emergence of a new ray is the slow return to its source of the
prevailing ray, present at the advent of the new. At this time the sixth ray is passing out and is taking with it all those forms whose keynote is blue - those people, for instance, who with devotion (misplaced or not) followed some particular object, person or idea. With it passes, therefore, those whom we term fanatics, those who with one-pointed zeal work towards some sensed objective. Many of the flowers in which you now rejoice are passing out, the bluebell, the hyacinth and the olive for example; the sapphire will become scarce and the turquoise will lose its hue. Flowers of violet color, of lavender and of purple will come into favor. Behind all this lies a purpose profound. The physical plane, in its densest aspect, holds little of mystery for man today; he has knowledge on these matters. But the rarer levels of the physical plane lie hid and are, for man, his next field of discovery. The ceremonial ray brings with it the means whereby that knowledge may be acquired and revealed to all, and thus not be the sole property of the wise and of the occultists. The three higher etheric levels, with their [123] denizens, are waiting to become the property of all, and with their inhabitants comes the next approximation. It is possible at this time to foretell certain events which will come to pass during the next one hundred years. First, in about ten years time the first ether, with all that is composed of that matter, will be recognized scientific fact, and the scientists who work intuitionally will come to recognize the devas of that plane. People coming into incarnation on this seventh ray will have the eyes that see, and the purple devas and the lesser devas of the etheric body will be visioned by them. Secondly, when He Whom both angels and men await, will approach near unto this physical plane, He will bring with Him not only some of the Great Ones and the Masters, but some of the Devas who stand to the deva evolution as the Masters to the human. Forget not that the human evolution is but one of many, and that this is a period of crisis among the devas likewise. The call has gone forth for them to approach humanity, and with their heightened vibration and superior knowledge unite their forces with those of humanity, for the progression of the two evolutions. They have much to impart anent color and sound, and their effect upon the etheric bodies of men and animals. When that which they have to give is apprehended by the race, physical ills will be nullified and attention will be centered upon the infirmities of the astral or emotional body. These violet devas of the four ethers form, as you may imagine, four great groups with seven subsidiary divisions. These four groups work with the four types of men now in incarnation, for it is a statement of fact that at no time in this round are more than four types of men in incarnation at any one time. Four rays dominate at any given period, with one in excess of the other three. I mean by this, that only four rays are in physical incarnation; for on the plane of the soul all [124] seven types are of course found. This idea is brought out in the four castes in India, and you will find that these four are found universally. The four groups of devas are a band of servers to the Lord, and their special work is to contact men and to give them definite and experimental teaching. They will instruct in the effect of color in the healing of disease, especially the effect of the violet light in the lessening of human ills and in the cure of those physical plane sicknesses which have their origin in the etheric body or double. They will teach men to see etherically, by heightening human vibration by action of their own. They will demonstrate to the materialistic thinkers of the world the fact that the superconscious states exist - not the superhuman only - and will also make clear the hitherto unrecognized fact that other beings, besides the human, have their habitat on earth. They will also teach the sounding of the tones that correspond to the gradations of violet, and through that sounding enable man to utilize the ethers, as he now utilizes physical plane matter for his various needs. They will enable human beings so to control the ethers that weight will be for them transmuted, and motion will be intensified, becoming more rapid, more gliding, noiseless, and therefore less tiring. In the human control of the etheric levels lie the lessening of fatigue, rapidity of transit, and the ability to transcend time. Until this prophecy is a fact in consciousness, its meaning is obscure. They will also teach men how rightly to nourish the body and to draw from the surrounding ethers the requisite food. Man will in the future concentrate more on the sound condition of the etheric body, and the functioning of the dense physical body will become practically automatic. They will enable human beings, as a race, and not as individuals, [125] to expand their consciousness so that it will embrace the super-physical. Forget not the important fact that in the accomplishment of this the web that divides the physical plane from the astral plane will be discovered by the scientists, and its purpose will eventually be acknowledged. With that discovery will come the power to penetrate the web, and so link up consciously with the astral body. Another material unification will have been accomplished. |
