The Sermon on the Mount: Matthew 5:14-16
You are the Light of the World. A City set on a hill cannot be hid. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all the house. Let your light so shine before all men, that they may see your good works and give glory to the Creator who is in heaven.
Spiritual Unfoldment 2
In the beginning was the Word; it was the vibration which caused the Light. The Light was the Son, the first-born of the Father Within the Light is all-life; and the Light is divided into seven rays; on the seven rays of color within the Light come the planetary angelic messengers to serve the human race.
Endeavour as you look on any physical form to look into that form and to see the spirit. See it in the very roots of the trees, in the trunk, branches and the leaves. See the white light rising as the sap rises. See this phenomenon taking place in the flowers and the bushes and trees and all nature. Look always for the spirit behind or within all form. Become en rapport with this God-life in everything. Realize it in the air you breathe, in the water you drink and bathe in; see it in the sky, in the winds, in the air; see it in the fire. Cultivate this inner gift; call it, if you like, imagination, but remember that imagination is the bridge which will take man across physical matter into the etheric and indeed into the celestial world. By using this gift you can help yourselves and all mankind. It will create harmony in you and beauty in your lives, for you will have realms revealed to you, of which you know nothing at the present.
Learn therefore to step outside your personality, or your self as a limiting and confining thing; get away from yourself, and the limitations of the physical brain, learn to slip away on the wings of imagery. You will find yourself free, and in this land of meditation, which is the real land of light, you will see behind the scenes of physical life, and in so doing learn the true meaning of brotherhood; you will learn that you cannot serve with all your heart and soul and mind without growing in Christ-likeness. You will know that you in no wise can separate yourself from the great ocean of life; you cannot harm your brother, whether of the vegetable, animal or human kingdom, without yourself being hurt.
We come back again to the simple teaching of Jesus the Son and the Light: ‘Little children, love one another ….Love one another.’
Metta Prayer:
May I be at Peace, May my heart remain open, May I awaken to the light of my own true nature,
May I be healed, May I be a source of healing for all beings
May you be at peace, May your heart remain open, May you awaken to the light of your own true nature, May you be healed, May you be a source of healing for all things
May you be at peace, May your heart remain open, May you awaken to the light of your own true nature, May you be healed, May you be a source of healing for all beings
May you be at peace, May your heart remain open, May you awaken to the light of your own true nature, May you be healed, May you be a source of healing for all beings.
May there be peace on earth, May the hearts of all people be open to themselves and to each other, May all people awaken to the light of their own true nature, May all creation be blessed and be a blessing to All That Is.
By the power and the truth of this practice, May all beings have happiness and the causes of happiness, May all beings be free from sorrow and the causes of sorrow, And may all live in equanimity without too much attachment and too much aversion, And live believing in the equality of all that lives.
