In this year 5.7, the last of the fifth seven-year period of the Plan, whose Goal is the “Creative Liturgy of the Group and of the Work”, we intend to focus on the seven aspects of the seventh creative energy, which manifests as Order, Ritual and Ceremonial Magic, publishing excerpts from “The Book of Rituals” (whose translation is underway).
As already mentioned in the previous post, “the seventh quality of Life binds together Spirit and Substance” and, through its intervention, forms come to life “according to the law, with love, in Space, following a programme, in beauty, with multiple measures but faithful to a single Model”.
The fourth aspect of this energy concerns precisely the intrinsic Beauty and Harmony, which are produced by its application; it underlines the importance of addressing, from the fiery depth of one’s being, the eternal Model and Order; it points to Heaven as the supreme model for the ritual Work that every man or human group carries out on Earth, performing the sacred and solemn act of uniting highest and abyssal, One and manifold, Being and beings.

FOURTH ASPECT OF THE SEVENTH ENERGY
Any spiritual ritual imitates the only Ritual, the one performed and lived by Sanat Kumara, the planetary Logos. However deformed, reduced and clouded it may be, it derives its justification from that: otherwise it would not aim at the Common Good and would not be, in short, a ritual.
Yet the great Ritual of the Lord of the World is unknown even to those who presume its existence and its rhythm, which together hold the planet in orbit. Is it ever possible to imitate what is supposed to exist, but it is unknown?
Yes, of course it is! This is the surest and supreme way to imitate it, although it seems impractical. Imitating what you know, that is, on the same level, is not difficult, but it is useless, it is simple copying. Imitation is true, brave and effective only when you look up, at what is yet unknown.
There is very little information about that sublime Model, contained in a sentence by the Tibetan:
“The ceremonial ritual of the daily life of Sanat Kumara, implemented by music and sound and carried on the waves of colour which break upon the shores of the three worlds of human evolution, reveal — in the clearest notes and tones and shades — the deepest secret behind His purpose.” (A Treatise on the Seven Rays – Vol. V, p. 246)
Great beauty and vast content in very few words.
Numerous deductions follow and a process shines through, which is certainly a component of that Purpose:
1 – There is a planetary Rite, performed daily with sounds and lights from the Logos. This reveals, among other things, that its rhythmic unit of measurement is the day.
2 – A single daily pulse is transmitted and passed on through the various levels of the evolutionary ladder and involves, whether they know it or not, all creatures and regions of the planet.
3 – Sooner or later major and minor consciousnesses awaken to that regular and constant beat, receive it within themselves and begin to imitate it at their own level. Then they begin to collaborate, albeit obscurely, on the higher Purpose.
4 – Step by step this responsiveness improves and becomes voluntary imitation. It is enriched with lights and sounds, it rises and becomes more and more similar to the Model. A chorus is formed and grows, able to produce an ever more consonant, clear, confident and powerful response.
5 – The truth that imitative repetition, however uncertain, is free, just as it must be spontaneous and diversified, is understood and applied. Only with the entirety of infinite multiform reactions can that Call be reproduced.
6 – Life becomes sacred. It turns out that profanity, which seemed prevalent everywhere, exists only out of ignorance, sometimes but not always guilty. The planetary Community is strengthened in all its branches and degrees.
7 – The ritual is established as a unitary law of life, and gradually the purpose of the Logos is revealed and defined. The Seven guides back to the One.

These concepts are the theoretical basis of the activity of the System,* and show the role and importance that the ritual must assume in its intimate daily life. When it discovers the infinite world of the heart and little by little explores it, then it listens to and understands the divine Word that rules it.

Yes, so IT IS. This pattern, from which all things trend into Being, by becoming by it, is the Great Singularity. This is the secret form/formless pre and post quantum of Pure Being. This is the core of being in every part in its becoming to IT’S Being. This is the Seed of each and every part of the hologram of which IT IS. This is the Chiron Paradigm “Chiron and Group Fusion” which composes and fuses all into the ALL. By attraction, economy and synthesis, used in their most perfect perfection to this purpose, is this design/pattern so inscribed/described. It is the fusion between all opposites, subjective and objective, the Power Station which Maitreya will and is (here) bringing to the world. It is the purpose behind all manifest, and by this does the Lord of the World drive all to their cosmic purpose. This is known in all higher levels of Being. It is the Great Ubiquity, the common atom of every future God in purpose. It is known thought out the universe, and the basis of the Hermetic Whole which guides the universe, as the zodiac so becomes and completes. From Centaurus, by Chiron, the Galactic and Solar, does The Lord of the World so inscribe and become…This same seed is the universal archetype as Hercules completes it, be it atom, man, planet or, star. It is where the three meet the four, as aspect and attribute so Know. It is the missing link to which every field will so Become, as Being is Known everywhere…It is the relationship of the seven by its perfection to each other, and as all it is ONE. This is the secret seed of the infinite creation, which is the mind of God which is the heart and purpose of the will to BE.. It is the divine compass for every part which is the hologram of the heart of God in the mind of God, by the will of God…The complexities of its extensions are infinite, yet it is ONE and the same in the ALL. So does each know when they Become. There is no separation in IT, as it is the alpha and omega….This “infinite complexity” can now be known from its “seed”, which every mind will become by it. So is the Service Universal throughout all time and space…….
