Mantrams
For Lent I suggested readers begin to recite mantrams, thus joining with the NGWS in purification and preparation for the Three Spring Festivals (Full moons, solar festivals of Aries -Resurrection; Taurus - Wesak; and Gemini - the Festival of Humanity. The NGWS recite esoteric mantrams throughout the year. Let us continue with the recitation of the Mantrams through the spring and summer, through autumn, and into winter solstice, In this way we will create a rhythm of unified intention (around the world) within our prayers and meditations. The Soul moves in rhythm, as do the Sun and stars and the Hierarchy.
Affirmation of the Disciple
I am a point of light within a greater Light.
I am a strand of loving energy within the stream of Love divine.
I am a point of sacrificial Fire, focused within the fiery Will of God.
And thus I stand.
I am a way by which men* may achieve.
I am a source of strength, enabling them to stand.
I am a beam of light, shining upon their way.
And thus I stand.
And standing thus, revolve
And tread this way the ways of men,
And know the ways of God.
And thus I stand.
OM
Noontime Recollection
I know oh Lord of Life and Love about the need
Touch my heart anew so I too may love and give.
From the Upanishads
Lead us, O Lord,
From death to Immortality
From darkness to Light
From the unreal to the Real
