Esoteric Healing - Chapter VIII - The Laws and Rules Enumerated and
Applied





I am anxious for this subject of the glands and their relation
to the centers to be correctly understood. The entire subject is closely related to the
art of healing; one of the effects of the application of the healing energy (through the
medium of any center conditioning the area wherein the point of friction is located) is
the stimulation of the related gland and its increased activity. The glands are
intermediaries, in the last analysis, between the healer and the patient, between the
center and the dense physical body, and between the etheric body and its automaton, the
receiving dense physical vehicle.In continuing our consideration of the immediate
transmitting agency of the centers into the blood stream (the endocrine glands) I would
like to point out that the centers work through this endocrine system through direct
impact, through a ray or stream of energy, emanating from the central point within the
center. Through this medium they condition and control entire areas of the body and they
do this through those aspects of the centers which we symbolically call the "petals
of the lotus." In a point at the very center of the lotus the life force is focused,
and as [619] it passes outward into the related gland, it takes on the quality of the
energy for which the center is responsible, because life force is essentially unqualified.
The ray of life, if one may call it so, which is found at the heart of each center, is
identified monadically with its source, and possesses (when brought in contact with its
petals) one major innate quality of attractive energy; all energy emanating from the one
source in this solar system, is related to the energy which we call Love, and this energy
is magnetic attraction. The petals of the lotus, and the area of surrounding energy which
constitutes the form of the lotus, are qualified by one of the seven subsidiary types of
energy; these emanate from the seven Rays which emerge out of the one Source, as
Representatives of the manifold Creator.
Within the
solar system, as you know, are to be found the seven sacred planets, which are the
custodians or the expression of these seven rays, of these seven qualities of divinity;
within our planet, the Earth (which is not a sacred planet), there are likewise seven
centers which become, as evolution proceeds, the recipients of the seven ray qualities
from the seven sacred planets, thus providing (within the solar ring-pass-not) a vast
interlocking system of energies. Three of these centers, representing the three major
rays, are well known to you:

1.
Shamballa




The ray of power or purpose

The first aspect

The energy of will.



2. The
Hierarchy
The ray of
love-wisdom
The second
aspect
The energy
of love.



3. Humanity
The ray of
active intelligence
The third
aspect
The energy
of mind or thought. [620]


There are
four other centers, and these, with the above three, constitute the seven centers, or the
seven planetary focal points of energy, which condition the bodily manifestation of our
planetary Logos. Through them the Lord of the World, working from His Own level on a
cosmic plane and through His divine Personality, Sanat Kumara, carries out His purposes
upon our planet.
Similarly, within the microcosm, man, the correspondences to these seven centers are to
be found. Therein likewise are seven major centers, and they are the recipients of the
energy emanating from the seven planetary centers, the custodians of the seven aspects of
ray force; these seven energies - at various stages of potency - condition the man's
expression in the three worlds, make him what he is at any given moment whilst in
incarnation, and indicate (by their effect or lack of effect upon the centers) his point
in evolution.
Two of these centers in the human being are to be found in the head, and the other five
are to be found up the spinal column. This spinal column is the physical symbol of that
essential alignment which is the immediate goal of directed relationships, carried forward
in consciousness by the spiritual man and brought about as a result of right meditation.
