gather ye around thee
those who know the arts
the art of the pen
the art of the tool
the art of the fire
the art of the needle
the art of the paints and colours
the art of administration to the sick
the art of love
the art of the tillers of the soil
the art of the keeper of the cattle
the art of the worker with his hands
the art of the instruction of all artefacts
the art of the cooker of foods
the art of the water witch
the art of the dance
the art of the keeper of the calendar
the art of the historian

the art of the guide
the art of the male and female
the art of entertainments
and over shall thou watch with the art of the soothsayer
and let him who has knowledge of the pen
record from all of the knowledge gathered among you
let him with knowledge of the tool record in everlasting
that written by him with knowledge of the pen
let those among thee do of their arts as they should be done
and let there be no hand raised against them
let no man be over his brother
for is not the keeper of the cattle
as fast as that of the keeper of the calendar
and that of the male and female
as important as that of the historian
let there be no wailing at the gates
for is this not the ending of the strife
of man and man’s spirit
and is this not the proving ground for all thy knowledge

of all of this must thou be led to the hidden places
that they and thee and those after thee shall live in the word of knowledge
take with thee to those hidden places
all that though has been taught to take
take with thee for thy comforts
prepare thee for thy stay
of food shall thou store in quantity
and all of the things that thou understands
to be preserved

lay up the cloth to warm thee
and those of the needle
shall make robes
that God shall recognise them as One
prepare thee light
that though shall not perish in the darkness
that thou shall teach the seed that thou has stored
to grow
that the seed shall endure forever
keep ye the fire and keep ye the waters
that thee and thine shall know the comforts

let not those among you grow weary from habit
but change that which is noticed to be weary
let not the sewer sew forever
let not the painter paint till weary
let not the builder build until forever
nor the writer wear out the pen
let each man take of his brother’s burden
that the load be light among thee
prepare those,
the ones who know because they know
as thou shall prepare those the hidden places

The reality of good is God, thus comes the revelation that God is within man. It is for the will to accept Him as the self, then all is well indeed. There is a bright and shining way before you. It is beautified by dedication to your service. Believe that all for which you ask becomes yours through your faith. God denies nothing that is right and good, now does He present experiments through which man learns and suffers; these are of man’s making. When the being beholds that all is good and that he needs only ask for that good believing, then only can his cup be filled, pressed down and overflowing.

July 8 1965

My Beloved One, have no fear. All is well; each day brings its own reward and you can write in your little book of faith “well done, thou good and faithful servant.” A great step has been made through love and faith; the group force becomes stronger each day. As the group form strengthens miracles will appear to happen – miracles of faith through love and works. Go now in peace to serve this day.

20 July 1965

The four-square [Peter, Eileen, Dorothy and Anne] have built their foundation on solid rock and now beginning to build the Temple of Light. You are truly living the words “I am my brother’s keeper” as you lovingly share with one another and with those who come seeking.

21 July 1965

We smile at you. You are indeed a loving, serving group. You have been given a great assignment which apparently you think you are not ready for. We tell you that anything now presented to you is a test of your faith and your strength. Many a weary worker longs for the fields of Elysium where he can reflect on the beauty and the bounty around him, and cease the toil in the vineyards where little seems to be made manifest as the fruits of his labours. It has been ever thus.

23 July 1965

You are isolated here from the world of evil. You are linked together is a bond of loving service. Though you may not as yet see the results, they are nevertheless being made manifest in form. Never try to assess or measure. Do all you can in one day. Give of your love and find at the end of the day that you sleep in peace. When you can do this you know that you are serving.

25 July 1965

You would be amazed at the results of one week’s work entirely dedicated and directed through given channels. It is now creating an atmospheric condition of protection and in time will be seen as a wall of Light. Not all will be able to see this illumination, but when they walk through it, will know that something has happened to change their lives.

This means that the four-square is operating effectively. It is not words that count, but the dedicated motive to serve in this way and the serenity of the service given. Many in your surround are being quickened without the slightest knowledge of how or why.

5 August 1965

Take your list this morning and go over the names of those who need love, radiate it to them and feel the response. In that way you will help bring the Kingdom of Heaven closer to earth. Your daily news is evidence of the misuse of God’s will for man, yet you know there are groups of men and women all over the world giving their dedicated service to God that man might find a better way of life. never become fixed in a formula for serving; let each day bring its own joyous response to the need. As you welcome into the fold those on your list, you help to create a new world of understanding for mankind. The thought then takes form and dwells among you. So go in peace and help make of this day a glorious one.

18 Sept 1965

Learning to blend the various degrees of light, love and wisdom through the individual into a collective form requires a very high degree of dedication and understanding. But this would not be required of you were it not possible. It is in this way that the new world can be brought into being.

Each soul is different, each mind has a complex of preconceived ideas. Fitting them together is like doing a jigsaw puzzle, but it can and is being done now through many and varied group efforts. These are in effect replacing the Church in its present form. It is all the body of God and all one in its dedication to the Highest, yet as different in form as are the leaves of the many varieties of trees, or the flowers. All are beautiful in God’s sight; all are pure in His Love, all are wise in His Wisdom. Once the complete blending has taken form, a new world will appear and a reflection again of the Garden of Eden. Go in peace. All is well.

 20 November 1954

We have found our underground dwelling, which has been extended far beyond the knowledge of those by whom we were incarcerated, completely illumined by a bluish quality of light which took on a variety of colourings according to our thoughts, or in response to our spoken word. This seemed proof to us that we were inducing by our thought forms, or by our tone of voice, certain light reflections. These changed only when we changed the principal character of our thought projections. For example, despair or dark brooding thoughts carry with them greyish black colouring; longing for outside world conditions would bring greenish-brown lights which were distracting and very unsettling; physical conditions of pain or lack of ease would reflect in a sulphurous light which gave off an odour as well as colour.

27 November 1954

After deep prayer and a united willingness to improve our situation, we found we were overlighted by a Presence – a very great Presence, who began speaking to us.

As He spoke we found we were able to see His radiations; they were brilliant beyond belief, so brilliant we were unable to face them and knelt in our darkened cave overcome with awe and a premonition that we were entering the Kingdom of Heaven. This belief brought with it the thought that we were about to lay aside our physical bodies, and a great fear came upon us. We begged to be allowed to stay in our world of form, no matter how limited, until we knew more and could be of some use in it. The Presence spoke to us. He said that within each of us was the power to overcome death; that we might dwell in bodies of light and bring that light to mankind.

3 December 1954

It was some time before we could bear the radiance which proceeded from our Beloved. We could not rise from our knees, much less face the light that came from Him. But His gentleness and the love that came to us as a living force finally empowered the cell life of the soul-being; and we came to gaze upon His beautiful features and to listen to His voice in the stillness as we visibly expanded under the radiance.

He explained in simple terms – in our language – that we were to re-attempt what He had accomplished two thousand years ago, so that man might have understanding of the Light and might come to live in it and express himself through it.

He also told us He had never left the earth; that His Presence was known of many and He appeared in many places to give help where it was needed, making Himself known to those who were ready to seek Him in form, and by means of His radiation to those who as yet could not see.

7 January 1955

After our Lord and Master had presented Himself to us many times, and we had become accustomed to His vibrations and to the resulting force, which not only enlightened our cavern, but filled it with such positive radiance that we were transmuted to another plane of activity, we became aware that we were actually bringing into form various manifestations of the healing, restorative powers of such radiance.

Together we received the baptism of the Holy Spirit which permitted us to see the inner planes and to carry on our work through them. Many were the transformations which took place in mind and body. Our emotional life was now stabilised, and we were able to dwell in the inner kingdoms without struggle.

20 April 1956

We have spoken many times of our limiting conditions where it was not possible to escape from the confining walls imprisoning us by physical means. Our escape was an interior existence. Finally we entered the very earth itself. We became aware that we need not be bound by mortal limitations. There was a vaster, more wonderful experience awaiting us. We found that we need not cast off the mortal body in order to reach realms of beauty and breadth of vision, but that we were able to dwell in those qualities of being while incarcerated in a cave beneath the ground.

12 May 1956

Working within the earth brought forth a whole new experience. We found that life within the earth existed as strongly and positively as it does above ground. We found miracles of value to men of earth, which have not as yet been touched. We found the replicas of ancient civilisations; also jewels of rare worth and minerals as yet undreamed of by man. We found rivers of living water which when touched by our lips renewed the life current within us. We found that we were transmuted in fleshly form into beings of light without affecting the physical manifestation, That is, we were men as we have always been, but by touching the forces within the earth, through our desire to serve, and through our love for them, we became light bodies carrying with us our mental powers and able to appraise all that was revealed to us without losing our ability to restore ourselves to physical form.

7 September 1956

In working within the earth we have been called upon to accept the potentials of the Light Body and to use it as we would a magic cloak. This means that we accept it as our reality; that we call upon it to work for us; that we assume it as the Self of ourselves, and in so doing command it to our purposes. Perhaps we can make this clearer to you by reminding you of the miracles wrought by the Master Jesus. He accepted the crucifixion because he knew that in so doing the Body of Light would be able to take charge and He could then manifest at will. He gave recognition to the truth that the Body of Light was His reality, the physical form merely a facet of His expression.

18 January 1957

Sometimes through bodies wracked with pain and suffering the Light descends and the being is made whole. Sometimes in the midst of evil and despair, the being lifts his head and beholds the Christ. Many times in suffering caused by great sacrifice, the being sees within his own vehicle of manifestation the Living Christ and gives thanks that it is so.

25 January 1957

There is but one Power, and that Power is constantly winging its way through space. Wherever it is absorbed and activated in a stream of consciousness, it elevates, transfigures and transmutes.

24 May 1957

We cannot over-emphasise the necessity for acceptance of the God-consciousness, the spiritual substance from which man is formed. Here and now is the time, the privilege of so serving that a great wave of enlightenment inform the minds of men, uplift their consciousness, opening the petals of the heart to resound to Love, and the mind to Light.
