Theos-Talk Archives (March 1998 Message tt00077)

My last posting ended on a high note.  Sometimes it is necessary to use a
powerful tone to awaken the higher sense.

I want it to be completely clear that I am not in favour of splitting up
the Theos-talk list into specialised and narrow paths.  The work must be on
broad lines, forward moving and open minded.  We must be able to discuss
all that we feel important for our purposes.  It is quality that counts,
not quantity.

I think it is a good idea to consider our effort as a pioneering work.  We
are trying to move into higher and subtler realms.  We are not the first to
do that, but maybe we are the first to attempt this on such a large scale
and world-wide.  For me this is a great challenge and I hope you feel the
same way.

I realise the difficulties.  They seem insurmountable, but I have faith in
the power of our united effort.  The power of the united goodwill is great,
but in the same time it is very fragile and delicate and it can easily be
disturbed.  Therefore we must take care not to fall into the many pits on
our way.  That is only possible if we have the high spiritual vision
constantly in our minds.

You may ask, what spiritual vision?  This I can not answer, because each
one has to find it by his own effort.  But think:  What made me search in
this direction?  What made me want to learn and know about the inner and
higher realities?  Was it not the voice of my higher self, which was trying
to point out to me the path?  This voice or feeling may be unconscious, but
it is constantly there, and it embodies this higher vision.

Subtler realms mean subtler understanding, clearer thinking, discernment of
subtler energies or faculties, also greater responsibility.  We all know
about the great law of Karma.  All we think, feel, say and do is our
responsibility, and we must take all the consequences.  With more knowledge
we incur greater responsibility, there is a greater demand on our right use
of energies.  Those energies that demonstrate in thinking and talking and
teaching.  We must formulate thoughts that are suitable for our purpose,
which is what?... Think!

When I talk about knowledge, I am not so much talking about factual
knowledge.  I mean that special energy that is evoked by right knowledge
and is transmuted into faculties which light up the mind and broaden the
vision.  That light must be used to light up all our thoughts and actions;
we must make right use of our energies!  This is all very logical, not some
mystical dream or high ideals which have no application in every day life.

Ps. Dear Mr. Dallas, I spoke from the heart, and you took it to your heart
- such are the ways of brotherhood.  Thank you.  I have not studied the
works of Mr. Judge, but if you have sent some material to my friend Sveinn
Freyr then I can borrow it from him.  I have though plenty of good books to
study.

Sigtryggur.
