Invocation of Light

Here is another mantra from DK to consider. This extends some of the principles of the "Affirmation of the Disciple."

Invocation of Light

"Radiance we are and power.
We stand forever with our hands stretched out, linking the heavens and the earth, the inner world of meaning and the subtle world of glamour.

"We reach into the Light and bring it down to meet the need.
We reach into the silent Place and bring from thence the gift of understanding.
Thus with the light we work and turn the darkness into day."
Alice Bailey, "Glamour: A World Problem," Pg 232

Questions:

Why does it say "we" instead of "I?"

What is the significance of the words "radiance" and "power?"

What is the meaning of "hands stretched out?"

How do you reach into the light and silent place? What and where is the silent place?

Global Warming Enlightenment:

Science magazine published an article in 1998 with data that suggests the North American continent is a carbon sink. (See http://www.ncpa.org/hotlines/global/pd11498f.html) Prevailing winds, which blow in an easterly direction over the continent, contain more CO₂ just after they blow off the Pacific Ocean than they do after they exit the continent over the Atlantic.
