Musical Notes
“As by far the greatest number of the Beloved Chelas who participate in the group Activities are engaged in service in the outer world and are obliged to come to their meetings directly from such service, the part that music plays in quieting the feeling world of the individual, relaxing the physical body and stopping the rapidly revolving thought patterns in the mental bodies, cannot be over emphasized. By this means the atomic structure of the students’ bodies is re-polarized, and the vessels through which the God-Self of each individual will endeavor to co-operate in the service are prepared for their part in it, during this musical service.
“The Angelic Host, then begins to weave the spiritual structure, under the direction of the Presiding Master, out of the very substance and energy of the individuals in the group.
"The type of music used will help determine the class of Invisible Helpers drawn into the atmosphere of the Meeting, which will form the unseen but palpable audience of Divine Beings Whose energies and assistance are without limit in elevating the consciousness of the unascended members of the group, as well as condensing the energies drawn by Themselves to render specific service for the good of life.
“Beautiful thought forms are built by these Invisible Beings, and where the audience participates in vocal accompaniments to the music, the inner forms are clothed in the physical energies of each singer and become a potent power in sublimating energies of a lower nature in the bodies of the participants, as well as in the locality in which the service takes place.
“These musical forms are greatly amplified by the Angels, the Devas of Music and the Builders of Form, and are then carried into hospitals, asylums and other places where there is great need for the assuagement of physical, mental and emotional distress.
"You will see that where instrumental music gives assistance at inner levels, the group singing is most efficacious in lowering the spiritual forms into the substance of the physical world."

The Fountain of Wisdom
“There is one thing that I ask of you in this year [of 1979] and that is that you raise your heads, straighten your spines and free your consciousness from a sense of inadequacy, of failure, of depression, of lethargy, of fear and of doubt . . . as to your ability to represent Me in the world of form. I make no mistakes! I would not have invited you; Beloved Morya would not have invited you to be a part of this great Activity; Serapis Bey would not have written across the breast of your etheric garments “Candidate for the Ascension” if it were not absolutely and positively known by Intelligences so great that the human mind would reel before Their Power, that you could do this AND do it well!!
“The greatest opportunity in the World is to use this Flame of Freedom and to stand unmoved, centered and poised within your own God Flame. Stop this consciousness of negative fear that either, you have not lived up to your light; that you are not worthy to be among the representatives of Freedom; that you don't believe that the activities at Inner Levels are real or that you cannot make the grade! Nonsense! Absolute nonsense!
If there is one thing that the force desiring to delay progress of this planet wants, it is to throw cold water of indifference and lethargy over the expanding light within your soul. Lethargy, indifference, self-condemnation which seems harmless in themselves, are very vicious indeed.
"Think of Those of Us Who gained the freedom and victory alone¾century after century¾finding secret caves, places where We might hide; endeavoring there, with a few brave souls like Ourselves, to contact the Ascended Host of Light. . .There was nothing but Our Heart Flame to direct Us. YET if We had allowed these negative qualities to make Us fearful, Mk would still remain within the orthodox masses!
'“. . .I tell you frankly, if you are going to succeed, you must be positive, determined and confident within yourself. In the privacy of your own room, you must take yourselves in hand and decide first and foremost whether you are working with the Ascended Host or not. If you feel that you are not¾then you must wait for another opportunity in a later day."
