To whose temple the Arch is starlit, In whose temple the Sun is the image of gold, To whose temple the Moon goes every month And brings the message out every full-moon, And whose message the Moon sings as a word of sixteen letters, His religion I belong to, His temple I visit, His name I utter, His glory I live in. To Him I offer the lotus of my day, To Him I offer the lotus of my night. These seed thoughts from the Spiritual Psychology meditations of Dr. Ekkirala Krishnamacharya give the note for the Lunar Messenger of the Circle of Good Will. The moon is the reflective principle and symbol of the mind. When pure and calm, it reflects impressions from higher circles. Especially the time of the full moon is conducive for higher alignment, if we are poised enough. The alignment of the sun, moon and earth in the sky helps experiencing the magic of the light of the soul and its manifestation down to the physical. The Lunar Messenger is published every month in time for the full moon. It contains thoughts from the teachings of eternal wisdom. Its purpose is to inspire putting them into practical life.
Rearrangement
The difference between a piece of iron and a magnet lies in the arrangement of the atoms. A magnet contains exactly the same atoms as a piece of iron, only the correct arrangement of them causes the occurrence of magnetism. Magnetism is not visible, only its effect is. Much in the same way do we not recognize the magnetism of the consciousness through a radiography of the brain, but only the phenomena that are caused by it. Where there is order, the consciousness streams through. Is the order interrupted, the stream of consciousness is stopped. Order has a magnetic effect. There should be order within us and around us; in our house and at our work place. If, for example, our hair style becomes disorderly, it is enough to amplify the disorder in our personality. It is not out of a sense of fashion that one
should have clean, combed hair: due to order, the higher structures can manifest through us much better. If we live in order and rhythm, we will become radiant and magnetised. The magnetic currents transform the lower agencies and the light of the soul can shine through our bodies. The brighter the light, the stronger the magnetic field. Rearrangement comes with rhythm. The new order creates the power lines and causes the flow of the magnetic currents. All major activities in our lives should therefore be rhythmic: a rhythm for meditation and prayers; a rhythm for studies and work; a rhythm for eating and resting. Rhythmic working is an activity of the 7th ray and generates magical results. That means that we transform ourselves strongly if we take on a rhythm and follow it. Most of us, however, are not steady in their practices and our life situations oftentimes hinder our practices as well. Here, help needs to come from a source that we cannot reach on our own help through prayer and a magnetic person who lives in Buddhi. For a piece of iron, it is difficult, yet not impossible, to be magnetized without the presence of a magnet even though it carries the potential to become a magnet itself. A small magnet can already magnetize, but even a tome about magnetism cannot cause any effect on iron. We try to trick the world by announcing literature as the means to education. Reading books, however, remains a mechanical process if the knowledge does not cause any transformation. As long as we are not magnetized ourselves, all discussing, comparing, and talking about magnetism does not help us.
The key to this is to feel the presence of THE MASTER. This enables us to reach a higher level of order. In that we invoke the presence of a great master, we expose ourselves to magnetism. The visualization of a master in a meditation, too, is like invocating a magnet. In truth, the master is always within us. We adjust to his presence and, thus, achieve magnetism. In those who align with him he builds a centre in the heart, for love is the basis for their actions. Without a particular discipline, their life pattern will change in a convenient and enjoyable way; much like iron dust arranges to a particular pattern through the impact of the magnet. There is only one magnet in the universe. Deriving from him, everything existing is magnetized. A planet is only a part through which magnetism works. Every magnetic force that the invisible universe generates originates in this one magnet. It is called the cosmic man, the spiritual sun, or God. Because the cosmic being is the magnet, we are magnets also - when we are aware of IT. When we contact the consciousness beyond the qualities, the people around us achieve balance as well.
Magnetic Being
The magnet does not magnetize a piece of iron through action, but merely through its magnetic being. The magnet IS; it naturally generates these energies. Also, by magnetizing it does not lose its own magnetism. It does not have a program to magnetize its environment. Its existence alone creates the magnetic sphere. This magnetic aspect causes the soul of a seeker to be attracted by the teacher. The presence of THE MASTER through a master causes the necessary transformations in the seeker. This presence awakens awareness in us, not a doctrine or external influence; much less the personality of a master or his physical presence. It is recommended to a seeker to familiarize with the presence of THE MASTER and not so much with the personality of a master.
