Excerpt |
|
We are here between the four walls of this room at the Bonfin, but we are also in the town of
Fréjus. Fréjus is in the Var; the Var is in France; France is in Europe, and Europe is one of
the continents on earth. The earth belongs to the family of planets in the solar system; the
solar system belongs to a galaxy, and that galaxy is a tiny part of the whole cosmos. Yes, the
prodigious truth is that we are here in this room and, at the same time, in the cosmos.What
conclusion - i f any - can we draw from this? The conclusion that, as cosmic beings, we must
not eternally confine ourselves to our own petty interests. We must open our eyes and remind
ourselves that we have cosmic work to do. What is the use of belonging to the Universal White
Brotherhood if we do not work for broader, more far-reaching goals? For the welfare of the
whole worid? Henceforth, try to change your mental habits, to adopt a broader point of view;
try to become more aware of being part of the cosmos, of being linked to the whole universe;
try to see that this means that the things you do as well as the way you do them must change.

Initiation is nothing more than an expansion of consciousness. There are, of course, different
degrees of expansion, and the supreme degree is that attained by those who melt into one with
the universal soul, who vibrate in unison with the cosmos, immersing themselves in the realm of
absolute harmony, the realm of the music of the spheres. This is supreme initiation. Needles to
say, it is extremely difficult to reach this level, but there are many different steps or degrees
between the ordinary level of consciousness and this sublime level, and our task in life is to
scale as many degrees as possible and gradually to enhance our consciousness until it is so clear
and limpid that the universe itself is reflected in it. As long as human beings continue to move
in the narrow circle of themselves and their personal interests they exclude themselves from
initiation.
