Formula for the Dissipation of World Glamor
(Technique for a Group)The Preparatory Stages
- The naming of the group members, followed by ten minutes' silence.
- The Protective Formula: The group members say in unison: [238]
"As a soul I work in light and darkness cannot touch me. I take my stand within
the light. I work and from that point I never move."
As these words are uttered, each group member makes the sign of the Cross of Divinity.
- The three
preparatory stages:
- Focusing
the dual light of matter and mind.
- Meditation
on soul contact and recognition of soul light.
- The fusion
of the two lesser lights with soul light.
- On a signal
from the leader, the group says together:
"The
light is one and in that light shall we see light. This is the light that turns the
darkness into day."
OM - OM - OM
The Formula
- Then together the group says:
"Radiance are we 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 glamor.
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." [239]
As these words are said, the group members visualize the great searchlight they have
created turning its light upon the astral plane.
- A pause follows and then comes the invocation of the spiritual will. When this has been
done the group says:
"With power upon its beam, the light is focused on the goal."
- The glamor to be dissipated is named and the light is thrown upon it. The Words of
Power are uttered:
"The power of our united light prevents the appearance of the glamor of...
(naming it).
The power of our united light negates the quality of the glamor from affecting man.
The power of our united light destroys the life behind the glamor."
- Visualization of the light, penetrating into the glamor and producing its weakening and
dissipation.
- Five minutes of silence and intensity of purpose whilst the work is seen proceeding.
Then the group members refocus themselves upon the mental plane, turning their attention
away from the astral plane. The searchlight of the soul is shut off.
- The sounding of the OM individually and aloud by each member.
