Fifth principle Mind - the intelligent thinking
principle which differentiates the human kingdom from the animal kingdom.
Fire (by Friction) - Electricity animating the atoms
of matter, or the substance of the solar system, resulting in the
"spheroidal form of all manifestation. The innate heat of all spheres.
Differentiation of all atoms one from another."
Fire (Electric) - Electricity demonstrating as
vitality or the will-to-be of some Entity, and manifesting as "Abstract
Being, Darkness and Unity."
Fire (Solar) - Electricity animating forms or
congeries of atoms, and resulting in Coherent groups, the radiation from all
groups, or the magnetic interaction of these groups, the synthesis of form;
cosmic mental fire; the sumtotal of the sparks of mind, the fires of the mental
bodies and the animating principle of the evolving units of the human race in
the three worlds; solar fire is dual. It is the fire of matter or substance and
the fire of mind blended. This makes man the six-pointed Star of Light, for
each of these fires is triple.
Fohat Cosmic electricity. Primordial light. The
universal propelling life force. Ceaseless destructive and constuctive power.
Forces Those energies which are limited and imprisoned
within a form of any kind - a body, a plane, an organ, a centre; the energies
are those streams of directed energy which
make impact upon these imprisoned forces from within a greater or more
inclusive form, from a subtler plane, thus making contact with a grosser
vibratory force. An energy is subtler and more potent than the force upon which
it makes impact or establlishes contact; the force is less potent but it is
anchored. In these last two words you have the key to the problem of the
relationship of energies. (see Energy)
Form - Electricity on the monadic plane demonstrates
as the first manifestation of form, as that which causes forms to cohere.
Matter (electrified "fire by friction") and the electric fire of
spirit meet and blend, and form appears. Form is the result of the desire for
existence, hence the dynamic fireof Will is transmuted into the burning fire of
Desire.
Glamour Refers to the world of emotional being and of
desire, in which all forms dwell; a distortion of the turth and a faulty
reflection of reality; all the aspects of those deceptions, illusions,
misunderstandings and misinterpretations which confront the aspirant at every
step of their way until they achieve unity. The cause of glamour is primarily
based upon the sense of duality. Illusion or maya, specifically on the astral
plane. The former refer to the mental and physical planes respectively. Glamour
is astral energy colouring mental energy so that it distorts reality.
Globe An evolution within a "chain" period :
seven globes to a chain. Earth is currently in her fourth "globe"
period.
Gnosis Knowledge of God. The Mysteries of Being.
Wisdom. Sophia.
God Deity or originating cause. The sum-total of all
the states of consciousness within the solar system; the Macrocosm; the
Universal Mind; the Absolute; the Unknown; the expression of the One Life which
animates every form on the outer subjective plane; the Life in which we
"live and move and have our being"; a new definition of God was given
us when the Buddha taught that God was Light and showed us that way of
illumination, and when Christ revealed to us that God was Love through His life
and service on earth. A new Approach is on the Way, bringing us the next needed
truth. See "Logos".
Goodwill Humanity's first attempt to express the Love
of God; an expression of the second Ray of Love-Wisdom; a principle which
conceals and contains the hidden purpose of the Logos.
Group A living, functioning Entity having form,
personality, soul and purpose in objective; the sum of the quality,
consciousness and awareness of those unitary lives of which it is composed.
Gunas (3) The three divisions of matter: Tamas
(inertia), rajas (activity) and Sattva (Harmony).
Guru Spiritual teacher. A Master in metaphysical and
ethical doctrines.
Heart An aspect of pure reason; usually considered the
organ of pure love but - from the angle of the esoteric sciences - love and
reason are synonymous terms, found to be not only the engine which circulates
the life fluids, but also the generator of a certain type of intelligent
essence which is the positive factor in the life of the cell.
Hierarchy A place of fusion of all souls upon the higher
levels of the mental plane; a meeting place of energies; a state of
consciousness with the life aspect, Shamballa, at the center and the circle of
humanity constituting the emanating factor, the radiatory influence or the
aura, whereby the other kingdoms in nature are evoked into responsive activity.
Group of spiritual beings on the inner planes of the solar system who are the
intelligent forces of nature and who control the evolutionary processes.
Divided into 12 Hierarchies. The Occult Hierarchy or Masters of Wisdom,
disciples and initiates are a reflection.
Humanity That evolution through which the Son or Soul
aspect is to express itself most perfectly in this cosmic incarnation; that
human Centre whose eternal mission is to bring light to all created lives. In
Humanity the pairs of opposites blend and the three fires meet. Humanity is the
best expression of the manasic principle, and a sheath for the life of God, as
well as the individualized consciousness of the Logos. Humanity is the Prodigal
and a great experiment in time and space.
