Letters on Occult Meditation - Letter VI - The Use of Form in
Meditation





In time to come the value of the combination of music,
chanting, and rhythmic movement will be comprehended, and it will be utilized for the
achieving of certain results. Groups of people will gather together to study the creative
effects, or the purificatory efficacy of ordered sound joined to movement and unity; the
constructive effect on the three bodies will be clairvoyantly studied; the eliminative
effect on the matter of those bodies will be scientifically tabulated and all knowledge
gained will be definitely applied to the improvement of those bodies. The quality of the
force tapped, and its exhilarating, vivifying and stimulating effects will be closely
watched. The centers will be studied in their relation to the streams of force contacted,
and their culture and the intensification of the rotary movement will be definitely
undertaken.Another angle of the whole matter resolves itself into work in the world,
and though dependent on the status and personnel of the group, it is not primarily for
group purposes. Groups will apply themselves to the work of contacting certain types of
logoic force, of passing it through the group funnel, and of sending it out through the
world for certain constructive ends. This work is closely allied to that undertaken by the
Nirmanakayas or Distributors of Force, and will be largely under their direction, for -
when the right time comes - They will be able to use these groups as focal points for
Their activities. Their work now has its focal point primarily on the mental plane and
somewhat on the emotional. When the secret of causal alignment is better grasped, and when
groups of people in physical incarnation can work in real cooperation (an impossibility
at present, for the personality looms as yet too large) then the Nirmanakayas will be able
to directly contact the physical plane, and so act with great force upon the evolutions
found thereon. [200]
Healing groups will work as follows. The circle of workers, with the unit to be healed
placed in their midst, will definitely apply themselves to the healing of that unit by the
use of set mantrams, and by the following of certain movements they will cause the focal
point of the downpouring force to be the sick member in their midst. By the stimulating
power of that force, by its rebuilding quality, or by its capacity to destroy and
eliminate, what you call miracles will be matters of everyday occurrence. The subject is
too vast to be more than hinted at here. But as the race progresses and the secret of
making the at-one-ment is more comprehended, when many people tread the Probationary Path,
when the percentage of initiates is greater than it is now, and when large numbers of the
human race are more directly aligned with the egoic body, you will see the scientific
application of the laws of sound and rhythm.
At the same time you will see the misuse of those powers - a misuse that will herald in
one of the final struggles between the Lords of Light and the Lords of Darkness. Great
will be the cataclysm and terrific the disaster, but ever the Light shines in darkness,
and He Who reigns above all, and Who holds all within the circumference of His Aura knows
the hour of opportunity, and knows too how to utilize that which can protect.
