What a strange symbol is the " $ "

Fred's HG1 L20 commentary

What a strange symbol is the "$" - the symbol for our US currency. In light and understanding of this lesson, however, it's not surprising that in re identifying money as Intelligent Substance – coin, paper, and now electronic credits and debits - should the initials of Intelligent Substance ('I' and 'S' in the English language) form a unified symbol and abbreviation composed by superimposing the 'I' on the 'S' to yield "$".

A coincidence? I propose that this is an example of how something so fundamental to Spirit's being in matter and appearance can be so pervasively present in our lives and affairs and yet so invisible to our human awareness. It is a truth that is with us and in our environment as a powerful expression of Divinity, and yet so mundane as to escape our conscious awareness of its depth and meaning and significance as a Divine Presence, and a Divine opportunity for creating better qualities of life for ourselves, and all our relations.

Perhaps these are the little winks of God and crumbs along the Path to nourish our spirit along the way home.

How many other examples have been shone us, and how many more we have yet to discover. This is part of the joy of our individual and collective growth and development. Part of the joy and grace that attracts us more and more powerfully toward the fulfillment of our being.

Is there any doubt that the power of understanding, and action that we are being made aware of has been available to us in this, and the Group's lifetimes? Clearly there has been its availability to be used and re identified for many generations of incarnations.

We are asked and instructed now to focus not just the awareness of this Presence (and others yet to be discovered), but to begin to use the content of this awareness to direct this intelligent substance into action as a good, true, and beautiful action in manifesting the Plan, the overshadowing Christ and Wisdom to inspire the Christ within to fulfill Its potential and express the Divine Purpose in appearance in this time and space.

Through the week, a diversity of currents and flows of associated concepts and ideas manifested as thoughts in contemplation. Among these came a new appreciation of the dynamics of Divine Love Wisdom stepped down and specified into the pervasive and persuasive power, vitality, and quality of the Law of Attraction. We are being asked to appreciate that in this Solar System and as lives within this Planetary system, the most basic quality and essence is the attractive force of Divine Love Wisdom. It is the power and force of the perfect understanding that Divine Love Wisdom results in. It is the power and force of right relationship in all aspects of our life and affairs.

Such understanding produces the compassion and grace that we recognize as the Grace of Christ – a radiating vibration without limit of time and space, that infuses the intelligent substance and the consciousness with which in comes in contact. It is for us to recognize that as we wield and direct this through our focused attention and visualizations (both as individuals and as the group) we move such grace horizontally, out into the plane of being of humanity and the lower kingdoms. In directing such through the etheric, astral, mental networks of the three fold instrument of humanity and the lower kingdoms, we accomplish that which Shamballa, Hierarchy are not in a position to do – manifest the plan into these lower kingdoms. This is our function, humanity's function, our group function, is it not?

We do this via the basic power of attraction, not by imposition. By invitation not by intrusion does this power find its function and fulfillment. It is in the dynamics of understanding, compassion and grace that a scientific field is established, an environment whose influence is attractive to the good, the truth, the beautiful potential in every living thing – in all our relations. And what would we want to grow and develop in those we love more than such Christ potential?

There are three Laws that are mentioned in the Wisdoms of the Master Consciousness of the Synthesis Ashram: the Law of Economy, the Law of Attraction, and the Law of Synthesis. It appears to me that our effectiveness in the service we have been attracted to is calling for our awareness and attraction, our willingness and our activity in implementing these Laws and their principles, as well as the synthesis of them in our lives and affairs.

The Masters themselves are in a process of integrating their good offices and three fold consciousness into a Master Consciousness, and a Master synthesis of energies, forces and substances of 1, 2 and 7 to fulfill this next Master step and initiation of human consciousness and Planetary Consciousness in manifesting the Plan. This they share with us as we are attracted, accept, and embody.

We are asked to begin in this lesson within the Law of Economy, under the Law of Right Activity, within the principle of Grace*, especially within the principle of right activity and the Grace of Christ. We do this with an eye and awareness of the Law of Attraction that we thereby are implementing in establishing the field of Consciousness of the Christ Consciousness for humanity. And with a budding awareness of the Law of Synthesis, that we are just beginning to tap into, we are beginning a process of embodying the energies, forces, and substances of the Synthesis Ashram.

For All Our Relations

PS – I'm really, really en-joying this stuff !

* The section of D & E re the Principle of Grace is below

P 15 The Disciple and Economy, Lucille Cedercrans, Wisdom Impressions, www.wisdomimpressions.com

3. The occult Principle of Grace which is based upon the Love of God in the sacrificial act of the Christ. The sacrificial act of the Christ means simply that this aspect of the One Life, this higher consciousness of Deity, deliberately and at great sacrifice, identifies with every human being in every condition and circumstance.

This great consciousness of Love deliberately gives Its awareness to man.s violation and denial of that Love. There is no state or condition of consciousness too low or too degenerate for the Christ to live within. He takes on, via such identification, the sins, the guilts, the horrors of human action in order to insure man.s growth up out of these into a Divine Light and Life. This great, acutely aware consciousness, which could in one moment of decision tune out the frequencies of that which is so foreign to its nature, never wavers but takes upon itself the suffering of man.s inhumanity to man. Thus, not one human being, regardless of his action, is left out of the heart and mind of the Christ. Through the Principle of Grace, every man is assured of his divine place within the One Life. The principle is a recognition that all consciousness is rooted in both so-called good and evil and will evolve along either path according to:

a. the mass tendency;

b. the present opportunity; and

c. individual choice.

There is so much that takes place in the world today which the average occultist either blames or excuses as being the result of individual karma and choice. The careless, thoughtless, and little-knowing shrug of the shoulders which indicates .this is his karma., with no effort to adjust that karma, knows nothing of the Grace of the Christ. Such Grace supersedes individual karma via a Love that surpasses human understanding, pro-viding the disciple with his opportunity and his obliga-tion.

Through Grace, the loving, giving action of the Christ, all men are forgiven, and all cyclically receive a new opportunity for right growth. Such a cycle is upon us now where the individual can be given a new opportu-nity through the betterment of his environing situation and circumstances. Thus, the mass tendency is worked with and an effort is made to swing it into right activity. The society is reeducated and reconditioned, and begins to consciously take its proper place and responsibility in the shaping of individual destiny. The individual is forgiven his so-called sins in an understanding of the burden of racial, social, and national karma he is shar-ing with his brothers; and a way is provided whereby he can .go and sin no more.

Society presently sets its standards of acceptance, its rules of behavior, and fails on the most part to provide the opportunity whereby its untouchables can meet those standards or follow those rules. Society has a function to perform which it must discover if it is to serve The Divine Plan for humanity.

There are those new social forms overshadowing and available today which would, if formulated and brought into objective manifestation, help man to achieve that growth in consciousness which is an adjustment of his karma. That such forms will create a certain amount of instability in the outer life and affairs of the present is true; but such conflict is the activity out of which har-mony can be born. And do not forget, conflict is the evolutionary way of this planet. Let us begin to control the forces of conflict then, setting them into that motion which will produce the greatest rate of spiritual growth and development, or spiritual harmony, within the hu-man family.

The invocation and application of Grace . of love and forgiveness . does tend to arouse opposition; but that opposition is a force which can be used in the working out of The Plan. More will be said anent this subject later on in the series.

Before we move our attention from the Law of Right Activity, it would be wise to consider the concept of group consciousness. The invocation of the three occult principles listed under this law, and their application in the life and affairs of humanity, directs the growth of the individual consciousness into that inter-relationship with other units of consciousness which evolves group awareness and group action.

Those disciples being trained in the world today, under the direction of the many ashrams active in a new and unprecedented educational effort, are receiving such training according to their subjective and objective group affiliation. The ashram works with the group consciousness via the Science of Impression. That which is to be impressed is turned to the group rather than to the individual; and according to his group awareness will he receive, absorb, and embody the concepts pour-ing down from the ashram into the three worlds of hu-man endeavor. He makes his own individual relation-ship with Truth in accordance with his group place and function. Later in this series we shall consider the char-acteristics and qualities of group consciousness. In the meantime, much can be derived from meditation and contemplation upon the above.

Blessings of Light, Love and Power to You All,
