The true teaching of Brahma Vach is enshrined in the
secret code language of nature. A new mode of initiation has already begun.
Invisible beings in their mayavi rupas cherish the teaching, but no visible
beings are entirely excluded. The quintessential teaching is conveyed in so
many different ways that prepare for the sacred instructions in deep sleep,
even for those struggling souls who seize their last chance in this life. The
more any person can maintain during waking hours the self-conscious awareness
of what is known deep within – even though one cannot formulate it – the more
one can hold it and see it as blasphemous to speak thoughtlessly about it.
Though such persons participate in all the fickle changes of the butterfly
mind, the more attentively they can preserve and retain the seminal energy of
thought with a conscious continuity, the more easily will every anxiety about
themselves fade into a cool state of contentment. Like a shadow following the
lost and stumbling seeker of the light, a true disciple will unexpectedly
encounter the forgotten wisdom, the spiritual knowledge, springing up suddenly,
spontaneously, within the very depths of his being. Then he may receive the
crystalline waters of life-giving wisdom through the central conduit of
light-energy, symbolized in the physical body by the spinal cord. One may walk
in the world with deep gratitude for the sacred privilege of being a
self-conscious manasaputra within the divine temple of the universe for the
sake of shedding light upon all that lives and breathes. In seeing, one can
send out beneficent rays. In hearing, one can listen beyond the cacophony of
the world. Whilst one is listening constantly to the music of the spheres
echoing within one's head and heart, one is able to send forth thoughts and
feelings that are benevolent and unconditional, extended towards all other
human minds. These thoughts could become living talismans for the men and women
of tomorrow in the fields of cognition wherein the war between light and darkness,
the living and the dead, is now being waged.
The Philosophy of Perfection of Krishna, the Religion of
Responsibility of the Buddha and the Science of Spirituality of Shankara,
constitute the Pythagorean teaching of the Aquarian Age of Universal Enlightenment.
There are general and interstitial relationships between the idea of
perfectibility, the idea of gaining control over the mind, and the exalted
conception of knowledge set forth in the eighteenth chapter of the Gita. To
begin to apprehend these connections, one must first heed the mantramic
injunction from The Voice of the Silence: "Strive with thy thoughts
unclean before they overpower thee." Astonishingly, there was a moment in
the sixties when millions became obsessed with instant enlightenment;
fortunately, this is not true at present. Few people now seriously believe that
they are going to die as perfected beings in this lifetime. This does not mean
that the secret doctrines of the 1975 cycle are irrelevant to the ordinary man
who, without false expectations, merely wants to finish his life with a modicum
of fulfilment. All such seekers can benefit immensely from calmly meditating
upon the Sthitaprajna, the Self-Governed Sage, the Buddhas of Perfection. This
is the crux of Krishna's medicinal method in the Gita. He presents Arjuna
with the highest ideal, simultaneously shows his difficulties and offers
intensive therapy and compassionate counsel. This therapeutic mode continues
until the ninth chapter, where Krishna says, "Unto thee who findeth no fault I will now
make known this most mysterious knowledge, coupled with a realization of it,
which having known thou shalt be delivered from evil." In the eighteenth
chapter he conveys the great incommunicable secret – so-called because even when
communicated it resides within the code language of Buddhic consciousness. The
authors of all the great spiritual teachings like the Gita, The Voice of the
Silence and The Crest Jewel of Wisdom knew that there is a deep mythic sense in
which the golden verses can furnish only as much as a person's state of
consciousness is ready to receive.
