At this point the master entered and all turned toward him.
As his eyes met mine, he smiled and walked on to where a table was surrounded by low chairs with arms,
lovered with attractively upholstered material of an appearance something like dull silk.
Ramu led me over and the master indicated that I take the place on his right. One of the Saturnian ladies
sat on my other side and while the people were settling into their seats, I seized the opportunity to ask if
she could explain the meaning of the insignia. She obligingly twisted around so that I could examine the
one on her right shoulder and said, "It denotes that Saturn is the Tribunal of this system." Although I
did not know exactly what she meant by "tribunal", she did not explain further. The design consisted
of a sphere encircled by a ring (much as the ringed planet appears through our telescopes), and inside
the sphere was a balanced pair of scales.
Thanking her, I settled back into my chair and found it difficult to believe that anything could be so
comfortable. Not even our air cushions yield to and yet support the body as did that chair. The master
began to speak. "My son, if some of what you will hear tonight seems repetitious, it is because the things
of which I shall speak are important to your understanding, and perhaps a fuller explanation will help you to
retain them."
I was glad to hear him say this, since, even with the telepathic help which had been promised me,
I still worried for fear I might not remember it all. "A great fallacy which has grown on the people of Earth,"
the master said, "is the custom of dividing into many parts that which should never be divided.
You have multiple divisions in forms and teachings, many firm likes and dislikes, all of which serve
only to add to the state of confusion on your planet."
"We of other worlds have no such divisions but realize the relationship and the interdependence of all
things. I know that you have felt deeply the power and radiance of our conception of Deity there on
the wall before you. By keeping always this image visual before our eyes, and remembered in our
hearts, we never forget that within Him all forms have their being.
"He is the giver of what you call life’ unto men. He is also the giver of life through us to our creations
in which He is the instructor of what is to be created. He it is who knows how the minerals and the
elements are to be combined not only to serve us, but the Universe as well, ever better as they are
brought up through the experiences of one form, to be fitted for a higher form. We on Venus, and
on other planets in varying degrees of evolvement, recognize the minerals and elements as the
essence of ever-active Divine expression, with a steady newness. And therefore monotony,
as you know it on Earth, can never be."
"So, as the creation of a Divine Creator of the total Universe is respected by us, so also is the creation
of man who guides the elements in different channels of service likewise respected and honored.
In turn, the elements become desirous to serve better each day that they, too, may rise to a higher
standard of service . . . a service which shall never cease, for it is eternal."
"As an example, that you may understand this more clearly, the bit of iron which you find among the
minerals of your Earth serves you in one particular channel. Yet by impregnating this iron with a
force which you call ‘electricity’ the iron changes from a previous service to another type of service
called ‘magnetic.’ Therefore it has been endowed with a power of attraction which it did not have
before. This is what we mean by elements or minerals evolving for a better service. For first it was
merely the mineral iron; then it reached a higher state of service where it was able to attract, which
in the original state it could not do. And so, on and on, this iron can evolve toward higher and
higher service rendered unto its Creator."
"So you see what is meant when I speak of the minerals and the other elements serving man.
By doing this, they themselves are endowed with certain powers of comprehension through
serving the All-inclusive Intelligence. This law, I believe, is known to you on Earth as the Law
of Transmutation, or the Law of Evolution."
"A human body like yours and mine is composed of elements as well as minerals.
And you can prove that these elements and minerals which compose your body do obey the
impressions placed upon them. For if the impressions are of a joyous nature, the being called
‘man’ is joyful. But if of an angry state, then the body expresses that, proving that the minerals
and the elements within it are constantly serving the Intelligence. Without it they cannot rise
to a higher state of expression."
"You men of Earth continually invite disaster by creating combinations which are opposing
each other rather than working together. You have made of yourselves something other
than your Divine origin. You have added many false concepts to your being instead of
remaining natural; like a beautiful woman who is exalted in beauty, yet adds many trinkets
that finally exalt themselves above her beauty. “You have done the same by adding that
which had no true life or intelligence. Let me point out to you something inherent in the
being of man by which we live on the planet Venus, while you do not, though these
principles apply to yours as well as other worlds."
"You claim that you are a being made up of five senses, and list others to be added the sixth,
seventh, and so on. You seek to develop these arbitrarily conceived senses instead of
understanding and developing those which do exist. In professing that there are powers
of clairvoyance, clairaudience, mental telepathy, or extra-sensory perceptions, you thereby
divide one total phase of expression into at least four separate classifications. And, as a
result, your true identities have become muddled and lost."
"Let me elucidate this a little. In the first place, you are a product by mineral and elements
of what you call nature. In the second place, as an intelligent expression of that form,
you are a product of your Divine Creator. The mineral and elemental part of your being
has been endowed with four avenues, or senses, through which it expresses in what
you call a physical manifestation. Intelligence or divinity expresses through every cell
of the entire form which you have labeled physical."
"The four senses to which I have just referred are sight, hearing, taste and smell.
Observe that I did not mention the sense you on Earth speak of as ‘touch.’
Because touch is the intelligence that precedes all others.
"Let me explain it this way. No one in any world can build a form like yours, or cause
it to live as do you. This can be done only by the Creator of the Universe. Therefore,
you must admit that when conception of a form takes place within a form, that mother-to-be
knows not what is to be done for the perfect construction of another body. Yet the conception
grows toward a complete manifestation, until finally it is born into what you call the physical world."
"When it is born, this form complete has eyes, ears, mouth and nose. The eyes see,
and the ears hear sounds for the first time; the nose smells and the palate tastes for the first time.
These were all created as parts of the body. As the body witnesses the physical world for the first
time, so do these four avenues of expression, for they are of the body. Yet the mother of this form
knew not how it was built."
"But the sense of touch, which I omitted from the group of senses, did know. For remember, while
the little one was still in the building process within the mother’s body, if a pressure was put onto
the mother’s body, the body within was also alerted to that pressure. And notice the separation
between the two, for when the body to be born was ready to make a change within the mother,
the mother neither controlled nor instructed this action, which does separate, in this case, the
sensation into two distinct reactions—the mother’s and the child’s. This proves that each operates
in the field of sensation or feeling independent of the other. Yet they arc a body within a body.
Also proving that this thing called ‘touch’ or ‘feeling’ is acting in the field of intelligence, knowing
what to do and when to do it. It seems to be the ‘knower.’
"When we take this into consideration for the purpose of analyzing, the sense of touch is recognized
as a cardinal one, or in reality the soul of the body—part of the all-inclusive intelligence.
For it is a feeling and feeling, as you know it, is a state of alertness, or conscious consciousness as
we know it."
"Now, when this consciousness leaves the body of minerals and earth known as man, the eyes,
the ears, the taste and the smell no longer function. For when the body becomes unconscious
it does not recognize anything like a touch. In other words, you could beat that body and it
would not have the sensation which is called feeling or of being touched."
"On the other hand, if one loses the eyes, loses the hearing, the taste and the smell, but retains
the sense of touch, which is consciousness, one is more or less alive and intelligently operating.
And when the body is then struck with something, it feels that touch or hurt, where it did not in
the previous state."
"Thus it is easy to see that the real intelligence of the body called ‘man’ is that which has been so
misused and mislabeled, the sense known to you as touch, which is the soul or the life of that body.
The human body - and the same is true of all other forms - is actually constructed for services that its
minerals and elements will render through the four major physical avenues of expression. While the
fifth, touch, is a universal one which gives sensation to the other four. Once this touch sense leaves
he other four have no power of sensation or operation."
"When man realizes this fact, he then finds himself as the real behind the mask.
And when this is done, the limited prison in which he has lived for so long dissolves,
and he becomes a dweller of the Universe. As such, he sees the law in operation in every form,
regardless of what that form may be, and including the planet itself upon which he is living.
Then does man know himself! And by so doing, he knows all things. Also he knows his.
Creator as he has never known Him before, which is the Universal or Divine Intelligence."
"It is through this recognition or understanding that mineral man rises to a condition of unity with the
Father, wherein the Father and the Son become one. Once the man of Earth learns this and realizes
it, not knowing it with his mind alone, but by living it as we have done, he shall have the same joy in
life as we have on other planets."
"As your Bible says, the prodigal son has thus returned home by giving up his physical mineral vanities
and making these serve him for the service of his Father, rather than he serving them."
"Of course, my son, you know this law and have been trying to live as well as teach it for years.
It is neither new to you nor is it any original teaching of yours. It is a universal law which all men
must know and live if they hope to enjoy their Divine birthright as sons of the Father. "You must impress,
as best you can, understanding in the minds of your brothers on Earth that knowledge of themselves is
the first requisite. And the first questions:"
"Who am I? Through what avenues can I express in order to return to the oneness from which I have fallen?"
"Remind them that Man has nothing to add. He has only to express that which already is his.
But he must learn to understand what it is he has, and live this understanding. For it is the living that is
important. Once this is accomplished, the Earthly man’s woes will soon vanish. For then these elements
which are used in making up the four senses of sight, hearing, taste and smell will begin to evolve to
where they will become more .sensitive instruments, not only to serve in what you call the physical world,
but also in service of the universal."
"Another fact which Earth men must realize is that ‘universal’ includes the physical within itself, not outside it.
For everything which takes place within the Universe is also within the Divine or Supreme Intelligence -
not outside it."
"That is why we are as much concerned with your world and your life as we are with our own, for we are all
in the same kingdom of the Supreme Intelligence. “We have learned and lived this for all these hundreds and
thousands of years. Because of this understanding, we cannot injure with a motive of injuring as you do on
Earth. For we know that we would have to live with whatever we distorted, since all is within the household."
"Once the mind of physical man rises to this degree of understanding, it does not see anything as
ugly or unpleasant, but sees all in the process of going toward the holiness of beauty and exaltation."
As Earth men consider this law, they will see and understand how all is working from the low to the high,
which is the universal purpose; and not from the high to the low. Yet the power expresses from the high
even unto the low that the low may have the strength to rise unto the high. There is eternal blending,
but never division. Knowing this law, the inhabitants of our planets have used it for their development
and through its use have grown to a recognition of everlasting life and the role of all therein."
The thought of overpopulation flashed through my mind as this is so often a topic of concern for nations
on Earth. Without the slightest interruption, this man of great wisdom answered my thought.
"No, my son. We are not overpopulated and such a condition never threatens us, as it does your people
of Earth. For we do not replenish without thought or planning as do you. There is a natural law of balance
by which we abide. Besides, those who have attained much knowledge on one planet may, if they choose,
seek rebirth on another. Toward this end they have two choices. They may make this change through the
channel of birth, or be taken direct by a ship, still in the same body. This has happened many times, even
on Earth. The vast majority have advanced from the Earth toward another planet through rebirth. Others,
though few, have been taken direct as your Bible tells you."
"Death takes place upon other planets the same as on Earth. But we do not call it death, and we do not
mourn for those who have left, as you on Earth do. We know this leaving means only a change from one
condition or place to another. We realize that it is no more than a moving out of one house and into another."
"We cannot take our houses with us when we go from one place to another. Neither can we take
a body, which is the house, from one world to another in death. The material of your Earthly bodies belongs
to Earth, and must remain there to maintain your world. But when you move from Earth to another planet, that
world will lend you of its materials to build a house according to the needs and conditions that exist there."
"Earth man’s concept of the Universe is very small. He cannot conceive of a Universe without
limits. Yet he uses the word eternity. Eternity, according to man’s own definition, denotes no beginning and
no ending. Then how vast is the Universe? As vast as eternity."
"So man is not a temporary manifestation. He is an eternal manifestation. And those of us who have learned
this truth are living in a constant present, for it is always the present."
"We of Venus dress much as you do, and we do many things in a similar way. There is no great difference
between our form and yours, or in the garments for that form. The great difference lies in our understanding
of who we are."
"Since we have learned that life is all-inclusive and that we are that life, we know that we can hurt nothing
without hurting ourselves. And life, to be life eternally, must remain in a prime state of its being, and to express
this, must be ever new."
"Therefore, as I have said, monotony is never experienced by us. Each moment that passes is a joyous one."
"And it matters not what work we have to do. If what you call labor needs to be done, we do it with
full joy and love in our being. And on our planet, each day brings its quota of things to be done, exactly as on
yours. Every man and every form is respected alike for the services they render. None are judged as to
shortcomings. It makes no difference as to the kind of service undertaken, be it what you call menial or not.
All services are equally acknowledged."
"People on Earth have been given this law, for it was
brought there by those who knew of it and who at one time practiced it on other planets. It was expressed
in the building of Solomon’s temple. The hiring of labor in the vineyard where all alike were paid a penny at
the end of the day, as recounted by Jesus, your Messiah, was an acknowledgment of the equal honor in
serving."As the great master paused and passed his hand lightly over his brow, I realized that I had been
listening with such intentness that I had not stirred. Moving my body to a different position, I waited for him
to resume speaking."
"Although the air on all planets differs slightly, contrary to the present beliefs of your scientists, Earth man could
go anywhere in the Universe without discomfort. Indeed, this will be his natural heritage once he attains an
understanding of himself and realizes the great adaptability of his form."
"Again he paused and bowed his head slightly as though in meditation before he continued. We have
developed to a degree of conscious perception which does not permit us to sit amongst any group of
people without the thought of blessing. For their very presence before us is a blessing because we do
not see them merely as people, but as the Divine Intelligence in a living state through a form known as
human. Our awareness is the same toward every form outside the human."
"We see the Divine Consciousness expressing itself through the growth of any and all forms, from the smallest
to the largest. We have learned that nothing, no form whatever, can be what it is without life passing through
it, or supporting it. And the life we recognize is the Divine Supreme Intelligence."
"Never a moment passes, even in sleep, that we are not aware of this Divine Presence."
"This is the true purpose of the form ‘man’ that for which he was created. For, while all other forms give
expression in their particular field of service, his is the evolved form of mineral and elements capable of
expressing the highest state of Divine Intelligence."
"We are not on guard against one another, nor do we covet anything belonging to others. For we are all
equal participants of the goods of our planets."
I understood clearly all that this great teacher of other worlds was saying, but a question entered my mind.
I wondered how they viewed killing for food, if they did kill, or even consuming fruit and vegetables, since
these too were living in their own form of expression. And as always, the answer came without my speaking.
"There is nothing illogical in this, my son. When you eat a lettuce leaf, it becomes a part of you,
does it not? As a result, from then on it begins to experience things with you. So what you have actually
done is to transmute one form into your own form. Had this not been the case, the lettuce leaf would have
matured, then gone to seed in order to replenish its own kind again, and that would have been its total
experience. But by serving you, it has been elevated to a higher service through you."
"Motive also enters into this principle. If your motive is to destroy or injure or exploit, then it is wrong.
But if your motive embraces the service you can render another form by bringing it up to your standard,
through you, then it is right. For you are really transmuting a mineral from one state to another that it may
be of still greater service. In doing this, you are acting according to the law of growth or development,
ofttimes called ‘evolution’ in your world. This is the law of your Creator."
"The people of your world make much of form disintegration not realizing the law of elevation,
because they have begun to think that the form is all there is. But the form is only a channel
through which life, or intelligence, expresses. All-Inclusive Intelligence cannot express through
a lettuce leaf. So the lettuce leaf must be transmuted by gradual stages into a higher form through
which to express greater service. That is the way it is rewarded."
"When this law is fully accepted and lived by your Earth men as it has been accepted and lived by
inhabitants of other planets and systems, the atmospheric conditions of Earth will be sweetened.
For every form will then give off joyous radiations from itself that will permeate the air within which
mankind lives."
"You have wanted to know by what method we have evolved to the state in which we are now living.
These are the fundamental laws by which we live, and by which Earth men can also evolve, if they
choose to accept and live them."
"When men of Earth have learned that they are not the body or the house, but merely the occupant
of the body or the house, they can build homes anywhere they will, for they too will become masters
of elements instead of being mastered by them."
"While you of Earth have come into a knowledge of governing certain elements to certain points,
misuse of your knowledge is widespread, and the elements are turning to destroy you, as many
other civilizations on your Earth have been destroyed in the past."
"This is the stage in which we find Earth men today. We can but continue trying to help wherever
opportunity presents itself, but it is difficult to reach in sufficient numbers minds so little developed
as those of Earthly men."
The master was silent for a moment. Then he said, "This is not the first time you have been brought
into our ships, nor will it be the last. You may rest assured that we of other worlds from time to time
will bring you truth that you may pass it on to your fellow men of Earth. We will tell you of the
physical life of other worlds, as well as what you call spiritual or religious truths, although we do not
make that kind of division. There is but one life. That life is all-inclusive, and until men of Earth realize
that they cannot serve or live two lives, but only one, they will be constantly opposing one another.
That is one major truth that must be learned by all Earth men before life on your world can match life
on other planets."
"And now, my son, it is time for your return to Earth. What you have learned can be of great value
to the people of your planet. Speak to them by word of mouth and by written word. Do not fear lest
you forget any of what you have been told. For as you speak or write, with the first thought a
continuous flow of memory will come to you."
"In this beautiful ship of another world there was peace. The lesson of the night had been deep in
understanding and meaning. Somehow, I knew that all had heard this same lesson, perhaps many
times throughout their lives. But it seemed to be one that they loved, as if in the telling a new
something opened within each listener and he grew larger in his own understanding."
Again I wished I need not return to Earth, but that I might remain with these gracious friends and
journey with them to other worlds. But the wise one said, "Son, there is much yet to be done on
your Earth. The people are hungry and must be fed. You will return and share with them this food
of the spirit that they may not perish in the darkness of ignorance that has prevailed upon your
Earth throughout so many generations."
