Discipleship in the New Age I - Personal Instructions to Disciples - L.T.S-K.
January 1935

MY BROTHER:

You have done much sound thinking the past six months and the fruit of your meditation is being garnered. The meditation that I gave you last July can now be stopped, but the three questions which were incorporated in the third point must be used by you each evening as a form of review. You still need a period for the quiet consideration of the impelling motives for daily action. Right motive and a clear vision of the sources of action are still imperative needs of yours. They will lead to right activity, truthful thought and right speech. But you have made progress, my brother, and have no cause for depression or to waste time in regret over the past. The only regret that is justifiable is based on failure to learn the lessons of failure. You, however, are learning.

There are, as well you know, still certain mental activities belonging to your old state of mind which seethe beneath the surface of your life. These, too, must be transmuted and it is for you to discover the method. I can but indicate need [605] and opportunity. As for the method you should follow in meditation, I would suggest the procedure outlined below:

  1. Achieve alignment and then raise the consciousness as high as possible. Assume then the attitude of the soul.
  2. Sound the Sacred Word, breathing it out throughout the entire personality.
  3. Ponder next upon the Lord's Prayer as part of your group work.
  4. Seek by the power of your thought and through the outpouring of love to contact your co-disciples and group brothers. This is for you important, for it not only aids in group integration but it serves to decentralize you from the center of your own stage.
  5. Then endeavor to contemplate or to realize yourself as the soul, as divine, as the Christ within. This will take the highest concentration of which you are capable.
  6. Then say the following with thought behind the words:
    "I stand before the judgment seat of my own soul. I am that soul. All love and light am I. I serve the world and lose myself in service. This is my life and this is the way that I will tread until the Day-be-with-us."
  7. Sound the Word slowly, sending it forth in love to your group brothers.
