Telepathy and the Etheric Vehicle - Three Types of Energy Involved
Let me attempt to reduce the above information to practical simplicity, thus showing how these three types of energy can be used in practical work: 1. By the use of the energy of love in three ways: By sending out love (not sentiment) to your brothers at the time of transmission or reception. [28] By capitalizing on the inherent power of love to attract the material or the substance, and thus to "clothe" in the occult sense that which you send out. By sending forth the "clothed" idea, impression, etc., on a stream of love which your brother - alert, receptive and waiting - will attract to himself by the means of his conscious love for you. 2. By the use of mental energy through the effort to polarize yourself upon the mental levels of consciousness. By a definite act of the will you lift your consciousness onto the mental plane and hold it there. This action is a reflection upon a lower plane, and in the brain consciousness, of the mind's ability to hold itself in the light. The success of all telepathic work you do, as a group or as individuals, will be dependent upon your capacity to "hold yourselves steady in the light" mentally. The difference is that this time you do it for the purpose of the planned work, and attempt to hold the mind steady in the light of the group, or in each other's light, and not so specifically in the light of your own soul. 3. By the conscious organized use of the energy of the etheric ajna center, and sometimes of the head center, when receiving, and of the throat center, when transmitting. This swings etheric force into activity when engaged in telepathic work, but entails its conscious subordination to the power of the other two energies. Practically, you will observe that this involves on the part of the disciple the power to do three things at once. You need to ponder more deeply upon the fact and necessity of active outgoing energy [29] when you are occupied with the task of transmission, and with active receptivity when you are functioning as a receiver. I would like to point out that successful telepathic work is dependent upon the following factors: First, that there are no barriers existing between the receiver and the broadcaster. Such barriers would be lack of love or of sympathy, criticism and suspicion. Secondly, that the broadcaster is mainly occupied with the clarity of his symbol, with the word or thought, and not with the receiver. A quick glance toward the receiver, a momentary sending forth of love and understanding is sufficient to set up the rapport, and then attention must be paid to the clarity of the symbol. Thirdly, let the receivers think with love and affection of the broadcaster for a minute or two. Then let them forget the personality. A thread of energy, linking receiver and broadcaster, has been established and exists. Then forget it. Fourthly, let the receivers work with detachment. Most receivers are so anxious to receive correctly that through their very intensity they counteract their own efforts. A casual and "don't care" spirit and a close attentiveness to the inner "picturing faculty" will net better results than any violent and strong desire and effort to see the symbol and to contact the mind of the sender. The brain should register a reflection of the mind content. If a ray of light is met by an outgoing force from the receiver's mind or a powerfully emitted thought-form, it can be prevented from reaching the mind. However, a transmitter with more expert training can overcome this barrier. Much of the trouble will be found to be based on the emitted thought-forms, or in the rush of ill-regulated [30] mental energy or brain radiation which negates efforts. Therefore a quiet spirit and well regulated thoughts will aid much, and the cultivation of that dispassion which desires nothing for the separated self, and nothing violently. The need of sensitive receivers is great. Train yourselves. Forget yourselves and your own petty little affairs - so petty and unimportant when viewed in relation to the momentous issues of the present time. Keep an attentive ear to the voices which issue forth from the world of spiritual Being, and love each other with loyalty and steadfastness. [31]
