imbibing the content of a poisoned draft

Contemporary men find it most distasteful to consider that they are imbibing the content of a poisoned draft, but this is the direct result of their own contamination of nature in ages past; for most individuals presently embodied on Earth have at one time been a part of this alteration of which we speak. …the five acts of essential divine grace:  mercy, justice, compassion, consolation and wholeness or completion. It is here that we draw the razor’s edge across the mechanistic concept and call to your attention that, in nature as well as in nature’s God, inherent grace embodies many qualities of God such as discrimination of Christ-intelligence and the great purity of the law.  -Master R: Pearls of Wisdom 8:6 (Feb. 7, 1965) ……………………… On Behalf of the Children of God’s Creation, I AM the Advocate of the Judgment of the Law upon the Violent Who Would Wrest the Secrets of Nature from theHand of God to Become as Gods, Manipulating Life Electronically, Controlling Mankind by their Arts and Artifices, thus Effecting the Temporary Separation of Souls from Inner Science and Inner Religion by the Monstrous Mechanical Doctrine: Master Jesus so wondrously stated as he passed through the fields of waving wheat, “The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:  therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.” We declare then that man was not made to be a servant of a mechanical system or regimen but that these systems are the means however inferior used by him to implement his search for the freedom of golden ages…. As the worth of man’s soul was lessened in his own eyes through personal degradation and his expulsion from paradise, man’s own heart-yearnings were translated into religious searching and the relentless pursuit of God in the desire to return to the paradise estate which he had lost.  But even this wonderfully redeeming factor, brought about through man’s search for personal atonement for all the foregoing misappropriation of God’s purposes in life, has been exploited by those who would make religion a source of livelihood and soul expansion a mechanical process…. Now ignorance and fear are the tools used by the forces of negation to cause men to vegetate in the human estate without entering into the divine.  My release on the monstrous mechanical doctrine is intended, through the means of altered perspective, to bring a feeling of freedom and release whereby joy to the world is amplified daily as man goes his rounds in the pursuit of happiness. -Master R: Pearls of Wisdom 8:14 ……………………… The statement beloved Jesus made long ago concerning the kingdom of heaven reading thus, “The kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force,” enters into many areas of doctrine.  And therefore I would interpret to you that the mechanical sense of attainment is usually behind the violence of mankind who seek to force their way of spiritual grace and their unfolding divinity through erroneous supposition that secrets of the universe can be mechanically mastered, including the ascension itself…. Let me clearly indicate to you the power of divine grace and how mankind, through infinite and holy prayer—an “infinite prayer” being the great inward groanings of the soul, and “holy prayer” being conscious implorations to Deity made with the purity of right concepts—may draw forth from the Godhead the grace that is sufficient for every hour that will expand light and consciousness to such Christlike proportions as will literally draw God-awareness into the individual focus of consciousness, enabling each one to rise not only through balancing of karma—through overcoming error—but also spiritually through attainment of the fullness of God’s gift of divine sonship, the right-you-all (or ritual) of the ascension whereby the Sun-ray of individual being is drawn up the ladder of light to the great Sun- source. I do not deny that some have attained to powers of the kingdom of heaven through an attempted action of rote and what we might term partial elements of cosmic science.  Yet in all such cases because the grace of God is greatly absent and the power and pressure of individual attainment is utilized rather than “Thine is the power,” such a one must sometime somewhere painstakingly retrace each stitch of partial accomplishment until all is properly placed, by divine grace, in the garments of the high priest (true being). -Master Rakoczy: Pearls of Wisdom 8:19 (May 9, 1965) ……………………………….. “I AM my brother’s keeper” is the fulfillment of the law but not in blind attachment or sympathy; for the latter phase of human error is a mechanical tie, a pull upon the passions of men who see in the failures of others the possibilities of their own personal loss and, by the bond of sympathy, they are pulled in a downw ard spiral into the maelstrom of imperfection. -Master R: Pearl 8:24 …………………………..
