To All Who Aspire to Continual Prayer:
The term "Our Father" signifies mutuality and sharing. The perfect life descending from God into the manifestation of self has been strained by mortal misqualification of its original intent and purity. But the desecrations and stains, created in ignorance, are blotted out by the effulgence of the greater light of the indwelling Christ.
No pagan or sacrificial act is involved when the son of God cast in the prodigal mold seeks to be free. It is the universal Christ, the everlasting light of the eternal Father that raiseth all upon the ladder of progressive reality until the world of heaven engulfs the individual seeker for unity.
Myriad doctrines, dogmas, and entrenched concepts have drained mankind of strength and made him a victim of satanic myth. The father of lies has spun many an idle dream and used it as a psychic net to divide and conquer large blocks of individuals in the religious community.26 Often the seeker for truth is made merchandise of and the very hunger in his soul for righteousness causes him, in fanatical zeal, to disclaim his own birthright and to proclaim as truth the teachings of the synagogue of Satan.27
The reality of the Christ is the leaven of truth that serves in the world of the individual to elevate his consciousness toward service in the light. That which would divide the body of God on earth, that which would classify certain believers as "evil," that which would deny fellowship to them as brethren and spread the poison of gossip and deceit is always of malicious intent - if not in the person of the purveyor of such teachings, then in the spirit that controls the person.
Those who desire Christ-unity in the family of religious seekers understand that Antichrist has already come and is in the world.28 My prayer "Father, make them one even as we are one" is not intended to promulgate a unity of oppositional doctrines, but to prevail upon men to behold in childlike simplicity that God is one.29 Simply put, this means that Good is one, and that oneness is Good. Naturally, deceit and error cannot be united with goodness, but then deceit and error have no part of God or of his teaching. These are created by the powers of darkness as confusing elements which lead men astray and divide hearts from hearts.
The body of Christ on earth can best be activated in universal harmony as men cease to consider the mandates of dogma as the primary requirement in determining "Who is my brother?" Rather let men see all men as brothers essentially - that is, in essence, in divine intent - and in an orderly progression toward Christly acceptance of one another as joint-heirs of the kingdom.
When men accept the reality of the living Christ for themselves as individuals, they realize that the ascension in the light is a progressive achievement that they themselves will one day experience - as individuals. To be lifted out of the dregs and doldrums of mortal thought and feeling, from all sense oppression and unrighteousness, into the electronic throb of the universal heart, with its attendant restoration of man's total communicative facilities, is to receive a blessing of incomparable glory. To this great measure of God-reality, to this restoration of individuality, to communication with the Holy of Holies, we are dedicated for every man.
The broad road will narrow, and the narrow road that leadeth to eternal life will expand as man passes through the portals of succeeding tests into the trackless dimensions of the Infinite. The seeker has found! No longer pinned to the blight of continuous questioning and probing, he now beholds reality, the Invisible made visible. By holy prayer all men can attain both oneness with God and the poignant reunion of souls who have long been severed from one another by the betrayal of negative karma. The breaches will be healed, the fruit of man's labors will be made tangible and real, and the kingdom of God will be seen as possible of attainment by those who have underestimated the potential of life that is within them.
What a boon to universal manifestation is to be found in universal prayer!
'Tis a hymn
That, humming lightly,
Penetrates the air -
A wave of light,
Manifesting everywhere.
Sun glow and sun fire,
Hope's radiant desire -
Manchild manifesting
Spiritual Intensifier.
I AM THAT I AM - so pure,
Imbued with cosmic power.
I shall endure
All assailing, flailing
Outer things,
By consecration now within
Expand my wings.
I, too, shall win -
I shall rise!
No more by carnal bound,
My rising soul hears
The universal sound.
Where God is, there I AM,
And everywhere's my prayer.
'Tis fragrance's evolving spin
That shapes my destiny through prayer.
Communication with the One,
Our Father dear,
Thou radiance of the Central Sun,
Appear!
By light I glow,
Thy word I hear:
Beloved Son, through love
Cast out all fear!
Thy work is mine;
To thee I say, "Well done!"
For faith and hope
And charity are one;
Attainment comes as seed of God
Right here within thyself.
Expand and know the fullness
Of the inner light that glows
To teach, to counsel, to enfold!
I AM the cosmic law
Of elder race of old
That, shining down
The pathway of the years,
Has sought to guide,
To wipe away all human tears,
To show the power of the inner light,
The inner faith, the inner might,
To shape and reshape the course of men,
To cause the holy kingdom
To be born again in men.
"Come then, let us reason together," saith God:
"My law of love and truth is heaven's rod.
I stretch it forth in barren wilderness.
I make the hopeful blossoms to confess
The Lord is God."
He will bestow the wonders
Of communion to mankind below.
He'll raise the earth
And every man that's here
And let the cosmic universal Christ appear.
Why will ye tarry, blessed ones?
Why will ye delay as you pass this way?
It is a golden opportunity
Restoring great sincerity
And cosmic purpose old,
Restoring communication
With the God of old
Who maketh all things new
And swiftly bringeth into view
The greater light.
Blessed ones, join with me in the prayer of faith that all men may be one, even as God is one. Join with me in faith that true integration with Eternal Law will come to every man. In truth this is the master plan.
Abundantly, in the never failing response of universal prayer by every cosmic being, your
