The Rays and the Churches

My Friends,

I thought I would wait until we finished with the seven churches before I gave out the rays. This gave us time to reflect upon them to make sure they fit and correspond.

The Rays and the Churches

Stage One, Ephesus - Ray 3 - represents the aspect of light and is called the Ray of Active Intelligence.

In Ephesus the aspirant learns to use the light and active intelligence of Ray Three to discern the false teachers, break off from them and begin his journey on the great path of liberation.

Stage Two, Smyrna - Ray 6 - the Ray of Devotion or Idealism.

In Smyrna he uses the power of Ray 6 to raise up his ideals and suffer whatever persecution and problems that may come from the principles he holds.

Stage Three, Pergamos - Ray 4 - the Ray of Harmony through Conflict.

In this stage the aspirant dwells in the midst of those "where Satan's seat" is and is surrounded by those who entertain the doctrine of Balaam. He encounters great conflict but if successful the end is harmony.

Stage Four, Thyatira - Ray 1 - the Ray of Will-Power-Purpose and influences government.

The aspirant here is promised power to govern which is an aspect of Ray One:

26  And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:

27  And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.

28  And I will give him the morning star.
Revelation 2:26-28

Stage Five, Sardis - Ray 5 - the Ray of Science or Concrete Knowledge.

Here the aspirant must use his concrete mind to "be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain." He must remember and reflect upon the knowledge he has received.

Stage Six, Philadelphia - Ray 2 - the Ray of Love/Wisdom.

The ray for this is perhaps the most obvious for the word Philadelphia means brotherly love. They key of David is mentioned and this name means "beloved" for David was a man after God's own heart.

Stage Seven, Laodiceans - Ray 7 - the Ray of ceremonial Law, Order and Synthesis.

Here the aspirant approaches discipleship and opens the door to higher consciousness through clothing himself with divine order and synthesizing all he has learned.

Global Warming Enlightenment:   Typical thinking of many in the media:  "I would like to say we're at a point where global warming is impossible to deny. Let's just say that global warming deniers are now on a par with Holocaust deniers, though one denies the past and the other denies the present and future."

Note:  Actually, there are few global warming deniers, but those who question that man is causing most of it are lumped in this category.
