From the Lambdoma of the Genesis of Ideas:
3.7 Rhythm – Rhythm is the pulsation of Life
7.3 Intelligence – Intelligence is active Light
This Polarity of ideas expresses and realises the primary relationship between:
3.3 LIGHT – Light is the rhythmic motion of Fire
7.7 ORDER – Order is Freedom
The Rhythm of Intelligence “squares the circle” of Light through the Order of Life.
At the level of abstract or fiery Thought (where the human Soul, the “body of causes”, for the esoteric vision, stands), the attempt to understand and live the quadripartite relationship between Light, Order, Rhythm and Intelligence is analogous to a squaring of the circle, in the centre between the World of Ideas (circle) and that of Forms (square).
The flaming motion is light, driven by the search for destiny, while Life seeks expression in form. Rhythm is the pulsation of this Life, while the vibrant waves of fire are pushed to their final point of penetration into matter. The spark of blazing light is present in every particle of substance. The ordered Model governs the fiery motion of light which is incarnated in matter. A manifested idea, for example, is an embodiment of divine Thought, the result of a process of rhythmic externalisation.
Ideas are real Energies and living Entities, they are the powers that produce precipitates, and directing our contemplation and reflection to these Sources of events and things raises our vibration and our perspective on existence.
Every thought illuminated by the principles of Being is like a pearl in the regeneration of consciousness, it is a Light that guides the construction of forms to harmony and beauty. As children of the cosmos, immersed in the Rhythm of Life and pervaded by the Essence of Ideas, we can activate the Will-to-Good and with loving intelligence manifest the multiformity of the Grand Design to restore the global Order on Earth, the common Good.
“Rulership is not in crowns nor in crowds, but is in the cosmic expanse of ideas.” (Agni Yoga Series, New Era Community § 84)
Galaxies and stars and planets are inwardly connected to each other by varying degrees of electrical energy or fire flowing between them. The universe is created and sustained by a chain of intelligent lives, through the medium of Ideas that transform and resurrect.
Life generates and multiplies itself incessantly, its rhythmic motion is Light which, propagating through Space with Intelligence, activates, orders and frees the luminous sparks of all divine realities in the Order of the One Life.
With mind and heart immersed in the Beauty of Being, let us be enlightened by the words of the Teachings, in order to anchor this quaternary of Ideas on Earth:
3.3 LIGHT – Light is the rhythmic motion of Fire
“Light is movement. It is, in fact, the maximum dynamism […] Light blends continuous and discontinuous, thus cycles are born, which are ‘continuously discontinuous’. For these reasons it is argued that Light is the cause of all movements. The Will fixes the purpose; the Space welcomes it and lends it the necessary substances; the Light reaches it [the purpose]. That is Motion. Light realizes evolution […] Light is the energy that moves things and consciousnesses; it leads to the goal, and there is no other reason for motion.” (Enzio Savoini, Lecture notes of the 3rd Septennium. Theory of Light I-II, unpublished paper, September-November 2001)
“It will also be shown that the soul itself is light, and that the entire Hierarchy is a great centre of light, causing the symbology of light to govern our thinking, our approach to God, and enabling us to understand somewhat the meaning of the words of Christ “I am the Light of the world”. […] The theme of light runs through all the world Scriptures; the idea of enlightenment conditions all the training given to the youth of the world (limited though the application of this idea may be), and the thought of more light governs all the inchoate yearnings of the human spirit. We have not yet carried the concept up to the Centre of Life where dwells the Ancient of Days, the Eternal Youth, the Lord of the World, Sanat Kumara, Melchizedek—God. Yet from that Centre streams what has been called the Light of Life, the Light Supernal.
These are empty words as yet until we know, as trained initiates, that light is a symptom and an expression of Life […] Light can be regarded as a symptom, a reaction to the meeting and consequent fusion of spirit and matter.” (Alice Bailey, Rays and the Initiations, p. 143)
Light as a visible and invisible flame guides humanity along the paths of the cosmic Order.
7.7 ORDER– Order is Freedom
“Understood in an absolute sense, Order is a spiritual, essential and therefore unlimited and permanent value. When it manifests itself cyclically it takes on ever new and different forms and aspects, but the essence remains unchanged. […]
The Order is identified with its own purpose, which is actually the global order for the common Good.
Order is the Will and it is the Power that exercises it. Without order there is no power and the presence of authentic power is inseparable from order.
The supreme summit of the common Good is freedom, complete and highest for all entities, and Order tends precisely to this single purpose without limiting it, but expanding it. […]
To bring order to human consciousness, it is necessary first to educate it to disciplined freedom.
The universal method followed by the spiritual Order to abide in Space with its liberating power is therefore the constitution of a system of centres, which direct it to raise its quality and improve its light. Those from which freedom flows, like pure water from a spring or sparks from a celestial fire, are beneficial and authentic centres; the history of the birth, growth and decline of the great centres of human culture and civilisation is inseparable from that of manifest Order.” (Enzio Savoini, The Order, unpublished paper, 1987, revised 2001)
“There is no opposition between the realm of celestial order and that of earthly chaos, because earthly chaos is only an appearance or a fiction. There is order everywhere.” (Dane Rudhyar, The Pulse of Life).
“Order thrives on freedom, and true freedom is possible only through Order.” (Enzio Savoini, Book of Rituals)
Order, the sign of victory and fulfillment, with its liberating power calls for renewal. Consciousnesses, expanded by the Love of Life and brightened by the universal Rhythm, respond by illuminating and planning a better future for humanity.
3.7 RHYTHM – Rhythm is the pulsation of Life
“Rhythm, ebb and flow, and the measured beat of the pulsating life are ever the law of the universe.” (Alice Bailey, A Treatise on White Magic, p. 323)
“Rhythm builds and is the backbone of any development of Life and defines its stable and predicted form. It accompanies Life up to the fulfillment of its will, that is, when the end and the purpose are both reached. Its numerical aspects are infinitely variable, the choice of which is free, since the goal is reached by innumerable different paths, even though the consequences are set.” (Enzio Savoini, The Solar System in Space, 1993, rewritten 1999)
“Each rhythm is equivalent to a sound, ie a tonal interval, but it is ‘silent’. It acts in eternal peace and prepares the vibrations that create all Forms. Each rhythm, according to the law of sound, generates innumerable harmonics, and ‘speaks all languages’ while remaining silent.” (Enzio Savoini, Man on the Planet and in the Heavens, 1998)
“The energies of Space reach us on the waves of cosmic rhythms. The sensory perception, the study and observation of these pulsations, and finally the concordant (harmonic) action with them, that is, the accurate correspondence introduced into life between the cycles of man and the universe, destroy the forces that prevent the free communion with Space and Fire. All of this, in short, means living and lived astrology. This science is indeed indispensable on the way of man!
If it is true, as it is true, that in a musical form what matters most is not the melody, nor the tonality, nor the instrumentation, but the rhythm, to which we owe the creative effectiveness of the work, and that, so to speak, supports it on safe and invisible wings, and predetermines all future ‘dates’, what must be the value and importance of a cosmic or solar rhythm! If the perception of sound leads back to the psyche, rhythm guides back to the spirit. It is a subtler being than sound: it is the soul itself; and nothing higher can be discovered, which is still expressible in thoughts and words.” (Enzio Savoini, Free translation, with comments, of Lehrbuch der Harmonik by Hans Kayser, 1980, unpublished text)
“… Rhythm should be expressed in all work, in all creativeness, in all of life. […] Mutual benefit only results when a very powerfully expressed rhythm can blend with similar vibrations everywhere on Earth. In its invisibility such help becomes true harmony.” (Agni Yoga Series, Supermundane § 214)
Light is the rhythmic motion of Fire that illuminates the spiral cyclical pattern of the ascending Path. When the ‘point’ of rhythm is reached, the life within the form is released and as a consequence the form disintegrates.
Rhythm, the pulsation of Life, which supports the works on creative wings, is anchored in the manifestation through Intelligence, the divine Light in action.
7.3 INTELLIGENCE – Intelligence is active Light
It’s the Third Logos: “Cosmic Ideation, MAHAT or Intelligence, the Universal World-Soul; the Cosmic Noumenon of Matter, the basis of the intelligent operations in and of Nature, also called Mahâ-Buddhi.” (Helena P. Blavatsky, The Secret Doctrine. Cosmogenesis)
“The solitary ray dropping into the mother deep may be taken as meaning Divine Thought or Intelligence, impregnating chaos. This, however, occurs on the plane of metaphysical abstraction, or rather the plane whereon that which we call a metaphysical abstraction is a reality.” (Helena P. Blavatsky, The Secret Doctrine. Cosmogenesis)
“[…] How, then, can one fail to apply the Highest Might, which guides the planet? Only Reason can direct the Cosmic Magnet. Therefore, Cosmic Reason, which permeates everything, brings tension to everything. […]” (Agni Yoga Series. Infinity I § 382)
“When a man rounds out his life path with realization that the goal of existence is preordained, it means that Cosmic Reason has transmitted to him its Ray. […]” (Agni YogaSeries, Infinity I § 85)
“There is only one science of Space, but due to the implicit dualism of Substance it is expressed in two ways: arithmetic, which exposes and studies its radiating aspect, and geometric, which teaches its oscillation. Intelligence (…) comes from their relationship, is divine Light, and explores and reveals its dual nature.
In other words, between arithmetic and geometry there is a regime of perfect communion, which is called Intelligence, from whose activity all knowledge proceeds. […] Between Ideas and Forms, as between Numbers and Figures, there exists the magical operational relationship of Intelligence, which has the sublime task of unifying multiplicity, going back to the Idea and the Number, and multiplying the One, descending to shapes and figures.” (Enzio Savoini, Lecture notes of the 3rd Septennium. Geometry Lesson, unpublished paper, April 2003)
“Upon each unit the Absolute Reason lays its confirming Hand, and the Hand gathers that force of the element which is needful to Cosmos. Thus the Fire blends with the currents of Space. Therefore, the spirit that merges with Cosmic Reason can verily manifest that element which, blending all contents of the cosmic seed, can become a directing cosmic force. All that consciously unites can direct the cosmic forces. The same law governs the expression of creativeness upon the far-off worlds.” (Agni Yoga Series, Infinity I § 144)
“[…] When it was declared that ideas rule the world, the power of thought was affirmed. Intelligent thinking must help humanity to accept the new rhythm and cognize the New World that has already drawn near. Truly, the New World pours forth its influence, and has manifested its power in the radiance of scientific achievements. May we overcome all the suffocating dangers through concentration upon the New World! Mankind must realize that life now takes on supermundane meaning. […] The gates to the New World are wide open… The Thinker said, “Soon people will learn how to fly. New spheres of Light will become accessible […]” (Agni Yoga Series, Supermundane § 255)
*
At the center, from the place of Fire, let us affirm with Intelligence and Rhythm the Light of the Order of the new World.
May the Light of planetary consciousness rise in all minds
and ignite the creative power of the One Humanity.
May the One Humanity radiate the perfection of Heaven on Earth.
