[00:00] Opening remarks and introduction
The following is a speech by Elaine Pike at the Englewood Unit of Understanding on Saturday, September 27, 1975. Subject, New Age Children Coming In. Mrs. Pike's talk deals with the advanced sixth subrace and a few sixth-race children that are beginning to be born, how to recognize them, what their work will be, the training that they should be given, and how to prepare to have one of these children, etc., will be discussed. The Master, Joao Kuhl, in the Alice Bailey books has had quite a bit to say on this subject, and some of the material is from those books. Quite a number of buildings, I think there are three or four that are foster states.
One has a large auditorium and some student bedrooms. It was meant to be a school to begin with. But there aren't enough bedrooms for all the people going there for convention to use. They're going to save those for the speakers. But the rest of us can use all the property. We have, I think it's 55 acres. You can bring your camper trailer. There's sleeping bags.
There's a cement area. You can put your sleeping bags on. But I'd recommend getting a bedroll sometimes. But it would be a lot of fun. And they're going to provide one big meal a day in the tuition fee. And it's a three-day convention, and it's $30, which includes the meal, the meal each day. For students, it's $15. They would like you to pre-register.
By October 15th, by the way, this is held October 24th, 25th, and 26th. And the theme is Understanding Self is Understanding Life. Greyhound Bus and the Continental Trailways goes by. And I'm not sure just where they stop, but they will arrange transportation to and from. Also, there are some motels, 20 miles, and the Ramada at Goodyear is 33 miles. And they will try to arrange transportation back and forth to that. Of course, the best way to go is if you have a trailer or know somebody who's driving. We looked into a charter bus, and it was just too expensive.
They wanted $750 for a 38-seat. And, of course, you'd have to have all 38 seats filled. And then you would have to pay for a room for the driver. And it just was going. There's talk too much. But we hope you will come. There's quite a good roster of speakers. Gelrin Carsley is having his convention following ours.
It will be the first part of the week. They were trying to get Uri Geller for that. And it's possible that he'll come ahead of time for our weekend, too. But I wouldn't want to guarantee anything because so many of these conventions, they say so. And so they're going to come, and they don't show up. I should have even mentioned it. But if he does come, maybe the young man would be interested in coming to something like that. If you want to know how to get there, there's a map here.
And I'll have it at the table and try to explain. We've been out there, so I can explain to you how to get there. Oh, for the other meals, they say to bring picnic food. I guess they're not going to have another catering for the rest of the meal. So you should bring a little refrigerator. Refrigerator or sandwiches or something. And meditation. And of course, he has been such a student of Edgar Cayce,
and has based most of her information on that, as well as other things. But if you were here a few months ago when she spoke, she gave us the revelation based on, say, 24 psychic discourses by Edgar Cayce. And this is the book that she had with her that she based her talk on. And we sent for them from ARE. If any of you would like to have it, it's $5.95, and it's quite a detailed booklet. We have some new letters to you from Valoran. Are there any other announcements that should be made at this time?
Not? Well, we'll turn our meeting over to Elaine. We've had Elaine Pike here before speak to us, and I know that you'll enjoy listening to her this evening. Elaine, let's give Elaine a big hand. Well, I'll see if you think I need it. I don't have a very loud voice. Maybe I should move it. Tonight, I'm going to talk about the six sub-race children who are beginning to be born. And I gave this talk in Hawaii this summer, and also at Dr. Baker's Festival in Dallas.
And I found that even though a lot of people have studied a great deal in metaphysics, they didn't really know quite what the six sub-race meant. So I'd like to just fill you in a little bit on that before I start. Before I start to talk about these children. So I'll do this on the blackboard. According to Madame Blavatsky, we've been through three great rounds. A round is a cycle, a great long period lasting about 432 million years.
So you can see this has been a long, long time. And I'll just put that to symbolize the three rounds that we've been through. We're now just past the middle of the fourth round, and we've got more great rounds to follow. And of course, those are way, way off into the distant future. Now, these are so far back that it's really very difficult to know what went on. But when you think of, if you do believe in evolution as I do, that we have evolved up, the form has evolved up,
through the mineral, the vegetable, the animal kingdom, into the human kingdom, you can see that this would take a great, great, great long time to accomplish. So I'd like to kind of blow up this round that we're in right now. Let's see, I'll put that over here. This will be this fourth great round. Is that from my drawing on the board that's doing that? Okay.
Now, each round has been divided into, at least this one here, has been divided into seven great root races. The first one was the Polarian or Adamic. Some call it the Adamic. The Rosicrucians, I believe, call it the Polarian. The next one was the Hyperborean. The next one was the Lemurian. The next one was the Atlantean.
The present one is the Arian. And there are two more to follow. We're in the fifth root race, which is the Arian root race. Now, each root race is divided into seven subraces. This gets a little complicated if you haven't looked into this before. But at the present time, we're in the fifth root race of the fifth subrace of the fifth root race. And it's the incoming sixth subrace that I'm going to talk about tonight.
These new children that are coming in will be very, very advanced. There are also a few of the great sixth root race coming in. And this is really before the sixth root race comes into its flowering period. This will be a long, long, long way into the future. But there's a great overlapping between these subraces and root races. There are still some remnants of Lemuria on our planet. These are the Hottentots and some of the Australian Aborigines and the Pygmies. See, these bodies are getting very, very far out of date now.
And they probably won't be on our planet too terribly much longer. Even though the government is trying to keep the Pygmy race going, it is dying out because the bodies are just too far out of date. There are also remnants of the Atlantean race still on our planet. According to Madame Blavatsky, these are the Oriental races, some of the Mongolian races. And then, of course, we have many in the Aryan race. The Aryan race is present at this time,
because the Aryan race has not yet reached its flowering period. This will happen in the Aquarian age, which will soon be with us. It's interesting to note that great souls have incarnated in each of these races to lead us onward and to be examples for us. They come in each time and bring the race up to the height that they can, and then they move on, and lesser souls begin to occupy those bodies. So they were the great ones in Egypt and during Atlantis, and of course, of our own age, too.
And they would be the great ones coming in in the beginning of the new sub-race, the sixth sub-race that we're talking about. There are four places that these children are said to be born in. First of all, in America, and Madame Blavatsky said that many of them would be on the west coast of America. Some will be born in Canada, some in Australia and New Zealand, and some in South Africa. What will they look like so that we'll know them when we see them,
if we're still here? Well, they'll look quite a bit alike, because it's the consciousness within us that makes us look a certain way, isn't it? And these will all have a very highly developed consciousness, because they're part of the new race coming in. They're said to be tall and slender. They'll have a very open face with a broad forehead and rather long noses and a pointed chin, making the face somewhat triangular.
They'll have slender hands and feet. There'll be a great deal of refinement in the face, because their consciousness will be more refined. Another interesting thing about them is that the skin will be rather luminous. We know that the eyes and the skin both reflect the soul outward. So when you see this, you know that you're seeing a developed soul. I think we see this in mentally retarded children, who are probably working out a very difficult karma for this life.
But the light and the fire is not present in the eye, and the mentality is not fully developed. Another characteristic of these new young people will be that they'll have an etheric vision. The etheric eyes are located behind the physical eyes, and they are what give the fire and the dash and the light of the eye. I think when, for instance, in shock treatment, I had a friend who had electrical shock treatment,
and I happened to be in her room when they brought her back from this treatment. And her eyes just had no light in them at all. It did come back later, but this had driven the soul right out of the body, this electric shock treatment. I certainly think very strongly before I ever put anyone through that type of treatment. And so this is an example to me of this fire and this light in the eye that is there from the etheric eye. The eyes are the most evolved organ in the body,
and as they begin to develop more and more in these children, they will have this etheric vision. When these children have this vision, they can see the David kingdom, which is the kingdom of the nature spirits. They'll be able to see about another octave of light or on higher planes. They'll be able to see people's etheric bodies. And this will bring about a completely new revolutionary idea
in the treatment of people who are ill. When a clairvoyant, or even, this really is not clairvoyant vision, because etheric vision is a part of the physical eye. But when a person has this, they can see in the etheric body a disease forming before it ever gets down to the physical body. And so it will be able to be treated.
And I think you can see what a wonderful thing this will be in the new age. Many diseases will be stopped and treated immediately before they ever actually manifest in the physical body. The master, Lal Kul, who wrote the Alice Bailey books, perhaps some of you have read some of those. How many of you are familiar with the Alice Bailey books? Quite a few. Good.
I think that's the highest teaching on the planet, in my opinion. And a great deal of my talks are taken from the Alice Bailey material. He said that it's only a question of time until everyone has etheric vision. And what is holding this up is a lack of pranic vitality. The prana, of course, is the vital energy that comes to us. It's from the sun. And it is brought to us by the pranic devas.
So when we begin to take in more and more of this prana, this will help to develop our etheric vision. And I'd like to give you a little exercise for taking in prana. I think it's so important. It really isn't a part of this talk, but I like to give it out because I think it can keep a person so much more healthy. You don't have to have these mass consciousness diseases like colds and the flu,
and all these things that float around everywhere. If you take in this prana when you're outdoors, you'll find that you'll be so much more healthy and have so much more energy and vitality. And this is an exercise that the Masters of All Cool did give in the Alice Bailey book. So I'd like to just pass it on to you. It only takes a second.
He said when you're outdoors where there is sunlight, and you don't have to stand right in the sun, but be out where there is sunlight, pull this in right between the top of the neck, between the shoulder blades there. Where that little bump is back there on the back of your neck. Just mentally pull it in, and then focus down on the spleen,
which is just under the rib cage here on the left side. I'm turned wrong for you, but it would be on the left side. Pull it in there, and then through the diaphragm, which is just about in here. See, this makes a triangle. Many things, many rituals of the New Age will be done in triangle form. Pull this in mentally. I do this when I go out to get the paper in the morning.
You don't have to make a big deal of it. Just any time when you're outdoors where there's sunlight, do this. And he said go around three times doing this before it begins to enter the bloodstream. So in other words, you'd want to do it quite a bit more than three times. And if you have some area that's really bothering you, after you've pulled in a great deal of this prana, focus it in one area, concentrate it in one area.
It's distributed by the spleen. I was going to say, too, about that.
[16:41] Main address
I haven't found anyone who can't see this prana in the air. I always have my class at the college try to do this, and it's not a bit difficult. Just look at something with the sky as a background, and don't focus on anything. And then from the periphery of the eye, looking into the sunlight, you'll see all these little scintillating globules of light in the air. How many of you have seen those?
It's not hard, is it? You can see them. This is the prana. Just draw that in mentally and do this little technique, and I know you'll find your health improving a great deal. The Master DK says that it's this lack of pranic vitality that's holding up this etheric vision developing in mankind on a mass scale, also the wrong use of food and wrong living conditions.
And he says that there'll be certain developments in color and in sound and light, discoveries along the line of light and color, which will begin to develop this technique of having this etheric vision, which will bring it about. What are some of the mental characteristics of these new age children that are beginning to come in? Well, first of all, they'll be accepting responsibility at an early age. If you see a young child who will accept responsibility while still quite young,
you'll know that this is a superior situation. This is one characteristic of advanced ed if. Also, they'll be very group conscious. We know that things in the new age will be group related. Master DK encourages people to form groups like this group, and small groups in your home for meditation at the full moon, for instance, and get together and discuss things. And even initiations in the future from now on will be given in groups rather than individually.
Of course, we have to earn the right individually to be initiated, but the initiation itself will be given in groups. This does a great deal for our development, that enough people are ready now to give an initiation in a group. It shows that we really are evolving. These young people will recognize that this group ability, this group get together is important, and this will help to bring about unity among mankind.
It will help to bring more peace into our world. The education of these children will be especially important, because since they're more advanced, they will have the soul infusion more firmly established in their body. The parents that they come back to will be chosen very carefully, and they'll be parents that will encourage love within children, and a desire for them to accept responsibility and to self-discipline themselves. So it's unlikely that any physical harsh treatment of these children will be of any benefit,
because they will have the love faculty so developed within them, that to really hit them and mistreat them this way just won't work out well at all. Besides, there are other methods of discipline, and these children need to learn self-discipline. I think self-discipline is one of the four main, most beneficial ways of developing spirituality. Meditation, self-discipline, study of the occult classic, and service to others. All four of these things help us to develop spiritually.
And I know everyone in this room is practicing all of those things. Teaching children to develop self-discipline won't be easy in our modern world, because TV is constantly bombarding us with self-indulgence and sex and drinking, cigarettes, just about everything, in fact. So probably a limit on TV will have to be set up so that they will develop their own creative imagination and creative abilities. Madame Blavatsky was a good example of a child who had a great creative imagination. Her sister told of a time when they were down by the seashore,
and apparently she went into some type of a race consciousness memory, where she was a part of the ocean. And there were a whole group of these little children down there by the ocean. And she began to describe what it was like living in the ocean, and how it was rolling over them. And she was so vivid in this description that all the children just became hysterical and were crying and everything. So this shows you a type of creative imagination that an advanced soul can have.
Madame Blavatsky herself was a sixth root race person in a fourth root race body, the Atlantean body, the Russian race, which is one of the last sub-races of the Atlantean civilization. So this is a great sacrifice when a very advanced soul comes back into a body that is not up to the consciousness level. So this has happened many times, of course, in history. One technique I feel is invaluable in training these young children is to have them watch their dreams.
We know that children as young as six years old can begin to receive guidance through dreams, and often they'll listen to a dream where they might not listen to a parent or another adult. This is one of the best ways, I think, to get in touch with your higher self or with your soul, through dreams and also through meditation. But it's a little easier, I think, to watch your dreams and receive guidance that way. There's a tribe in the Philippines that has their children do this. Every morning at breakfast, all the family gets together, and they tell their dreams of the night before, the adults too.
Let's say that some little boy has dreamed that he had a fight with one of his friends. Well, the father will have him get some little inexpensive gift, maybe just a piece of fruit or something, and they will go over to his friend's house, and he will explain this dream and say that he knows that it was something within him that made him dream this. And you can see the advantage of this. The whole thing is out in the open. It's not lying there in the subconscious to grow and to fester.
And there's practically no juvenile delinquency or crime. This is a wonderful technique to use with any children, whether they're new-age children or not. It's a method of getting the family together and of hearing things maybe that are troubling the child that he hasn't really brought to the surface, but the dream will reveal it to the parents. And then one can interpret the dream as the family,
remembering, though, that a person is best at interpreting his own dreams, because you know what the symbols mean to you. Better than what they mean to someone else. These children will be more soul-infused, as I said. And in order to develop this looking within that we all need to do, tuning into our own soul, there's another technique that Swami Pranavananda gave me that I think is very good.
And I've tried this with lots of children. I've never found one yet that didn't think it was just a lot of fun. If you do this in the right way, and they don't have to realize that it's some technique you're using on them, just make it like a game. Have them take some living thing, like a rose or a kitten, anything that's living. Let's take a rose, for example,
and have them look at it very carefully with you. Make this a game and say, look at this flower very closely, because we're going to try something with it. Then after they've studied it for a few minutes, have them close their eyes, and no peeking once the eyes are closed. Then they're to describe to you the color of it, the texture, how it's formed, maybe what the thorns felt like,
what the center of it was like, the whole thing. See, this develops visualization and also concentration, two techniques of meditation. If you can get your children to do this, you'll be surprised how much better they get at it. They'll begin to become very observant before the closing of the eye period starts, so that they can follow through on this
and come up with a lot of things. It's really a lot of fun to do with children, and it's one of the best techniques to start a child in. I asked Swami Pranavananda if my children at that time were too young to start meditating. They were about three and four then. He said, in this country, you don't even teach your children to sit down and be quiet five minutes.
I think this is pretty true. Our children are very active and going full speed most of the time. This is something you can do to start them with. Looking within and turning within to develop their concentration and their creative imagination. As soon as they are old enough to inquire or show an interest, they should be given the correct understanding of sex. This is another thing that is difficult in this day and age,
because every magazine you pick up has articles on sex. We have this on TV all the time, in the newspapers, in the movies, just everywhere, bombarding us with this indulgence in sex. I'm not saying that people have to be celibate, but I think when we know what the kundalini power is, and we realize that overindulgence in this is very detrimental to both spiritual qualities and to the physical body.
They need to realize that sex should be related to love, that love should be present when the sex force is used. I've taught them, talked to my class at the college, and I've found that most of them know what karma is, but very few of them realize that every time there is sexual intercourse, there is a karmic link set up. When they begin to think about this a little bit,
how many people in this world do they want really strong karmic links with? This has been a new idea to most of them. Also, they need to realize that they will be the parents, again, of very highly evolved children, these six sub-race children who are coming in. So they want to choose a mate that will help them to bring back a high soul. I think our young people don't look at things in this way when they're beginning to pick out marriage partners,
and they need to take a little look at it from that standpoint. These children will be more psychically developed, too. Poet Robert Graves said, Occult powers are not so rare. One person in every twenty possesses them in some form. Five percent. This is also the figure for the dominant minority among human beings.
Bernard Shaw asked explorer Henry Stanley how many of his men could take over in the case of an emergency if he couldn't carry on, and he said one in twenty. When asked if that was an exact figure or an approximate figure, he said it was exact, that one in twenty could carry on. And the Chinese found this out, too, during the Korean War. They found that there was about one out of twenty soldiers,
captured American soldiers, who were enterprising. And if this one out of each twenty was removed, the others could be left with almost no guard at all. And they found in zoology that this applies pretty much to the animal kingdom, too. There are certain dominant personalities in the animal kingdom who are leaders. I had a cat once, Bunny, who I really dearly loved, but this cat was absolutely very unintelligent.
Just a loppy cat that you could love, but didn't have much intelligence or anything. He didn't have any creative faculties at all. And I think you've all seen this difference in animals. There's a great difference in them, too, as well as in human beings and their development. What does distinguish a leader? It's the power to concentrate the will,
and to focus it in an emergency. And this springs from a deep occult level within each of us. And these leaders coming up will be of this new sixth sub-race just coming in. The nature of these children, especially physically, mentally, and emotionally, will have to be looked into so that they will be directed along proper paths. They need to realize that they will have something of importance to impart to a group. Remember that to be a part of a master's group,
you have to raise your level and have something to offer that group. They don't come down to you. You have to earn the right to be a part of a group. You have to have something along the line of beauty to offer as an artist or a poet or a musician, or perhaps something mental like a mathematician, or maybe something for right human relations like a teacher or a politician. We certainly do need some improved politicians in our world.
So they need to be directed along some line to help find what it is that they have to impart to a group that will add to its beauty and to its development. Their minds need to be trained in reasoning and intuitiveness rather than just memorizing facts. And I think our schools are beginning to do this somewhat now. They're just really starting now to sort of develop the person rather than just to cram facts into their minds.
They need to realize that all humanity is really one and that we've all been through many root races and that we've all been in many religions and passed lives. So we all learn something from each one of these groups and they all are offering something to mankind, not just one type of religion. Whatever we're in is right for us at that moment. And when we ourselves grow out of it, then we're attracted to the next step.
In Education in the New Age by the Master of All Cool, he says a certain atmosphere should be established for these New Age children. First of all, an atmosphere of love, so that they will feel that this love is solid there for them, that it will never be gone, that they will always have this feeling of love in the family. And they need to be treated courteously
and expected to return courteous treatment. I think even in grocery stores, we see some parents just yelling at their children and slapping them around, and it always just gets me. I just wish there could be more courtesy. More courtesy between parents and children. I think members of this group would be guilty of this, but we do see this quite a bit,
where there's no courtesy between the two, and it's too bad to have that happen. Second, he says there must be an atmosphere of patience, because these children, being highly developed, will have a million questions, and they'll want instruction along many lines. They'll be full of questions to the parents, and parents will have to take the time out of this busy world
to sit down and answer those questions and give them the right teaching, the right direction in their lives. Next, an atmosphere of ordered activity, so that they will develop orderly minds. Whenever I go into a home that's just mass confusion, things piled everywhere, and while you've been in homes like that,
you realize this is a disorderly mind operating in this home. So this is one thing we don't want to have our children developing. They need to keep their room straight, and begin to develop this feeling of orderliness, and this sense of responsibility that I mentioned that's very important, and usually they will have that sense of responsibility. Fourth, he said there should be an atmosphere of understanding, so that no matter what they do,
we may not approve of the action, but we must listen to the reasons and the motives behind what they did, and give them an opportunity to explain why they did something. Often, when they start to explain why they did it, they'll see themselves what was wrong with what they were doing. This will bring it to the fore for them to see themselves, rather than you having to tell them. Is there any way of recognizing these children
to know what degree of soul infusion they do have, and where they are on the path? The Master D.K. in the Treatise on Cosmic Fire says, To a trained clairvoyant, each form reveals the nature of the inner life, the quality of its vibration, and the nature of its goal, by, one, its color,
two, its vibration, three, its direction, and four, its keynotes. So in order to find these children, and to train them to become leaders, trained clairvoyants could be on the lookout for them, and they could spot them, and then their training could be given,
and could be started at an early age, so that we would have the great leaders that we need. Our civilization really needs great leaders, and we need to pick these children out and to nurture them. Right now it seems that all our attention is going to minorities, and, well, minority groups. And they are, of course, important. Everyone is important,
but also these great leaders coming in are important, too, and we need to concentrate somewhat on them, too. There are five points of crisis that mark the transfer of soul life from one race to another race. Usually, when this happens, there is some degree of soul development, and usually the acquiring of a new physical, not physical, but a new vehicle of expression.
For instance, in the Lemurian race, mankind acquired the physical body types that he has now. From animal man, he progressed into what we could really call a human being. And along with this, he developed the five senses. In the Atlantean race, man rather acquired his emotional vehicle, or his astral body. In the Aryan race, the appropriation of the mental body came about,
an intellectual unfoldment. The coming race will be a coordination and an integration of these three bodies, the physical, the emotional, and the mental bodies. And in the final race will be expression in the fullest measure of soul qualities in spiritual manifestation. If we look at our leaders today, we can see they don't have those three bodies fully integrated, do they? Complete emotional control,
looking at things from a mental standpoint rather than emotionally, and a physical body that's under control. Very few perfect physical bodies around at all, anywhere right now. So, we can see that these things are really needed in our leaders. Also, this five-fold experience, takes place in the individual as he begins to grow. There's a major crisis at five different points in a person's life. The first one occurs between the fourth and the seventh year,
according to the masters, while cool, when the soul, which has been overshadowing the young body, takes possession of the physical vehicle. The next one occurs during adolescence. This is when the emotional body is fully integrated, or at least more partially integrated than it has been before. This is why adolescents are so emotional, because the emotional body is not completely in yet,
up to the age of 14, and also the mental body is not fully in to govern what he does. So, he does everything from an emotional standpoint. I think when we realize this, we can look at our teenagers in a little different way. They really don't have the three bodies integrated yet, and it makes it hard for them. It's not just that they're doing this because they want to.
They really don't have these three bodies integrated yet. Then, from the 21st to the 25th year, the mental body is fully in and integrated. And then, from then on, there becomes some contact with the soul. At least there should be. And in the new age children, there will be a great soul contact from then on.
This is the third crisis. The fourth comes between the 35th and the 42nd year. And this is when really full conscious contact with the soul should be established. So all of us should have a pretty good contact with our soul now. And this is my goal each day in my meditation, to become more soul-infused,
to make a definite contact with my soul. And I work for this every day. I think it's terribly important to get this guidance and to know what direction we're going, what our purpose is, what purpose the soul has picked out for us for this life. So during these years, we should begin to get this very strongly integrated
between our soul and our self. Soul infusion. For the remaining life, the years of the life, there is a strong relationship between the soul and the personality in the vehicle. And this leads to a crisis between the 56th and the 63rd years. At this time, the soul takes a good look at the personality,
and we see if there's going to be any more growth during that period. If there isn't, often it will begin to withdraw. And we'll see people sitting in rest homes, maybe in their 70s, who no longer have any creative ability within them. You see, the soul is linked to the body by what is known as the sutratma thread. And they are linked in two places,
one in the pineal gland, and one in the heart. Now, if the soul decides to withdraw, the link in the brain by the pineal gland will be withdrawn. After this, there'll be no more creative activity during that life. But as long as it's linked in the heart, there's still life, and the person will probably be operating mostly on habit or memory,
rather than intelligently thinking. And I know we've all seen people like this, where this happens. So we don't want that to happen to us. We want to all remain alert and to continue serving. I think this is one of the best ways to keep in contact with your soul. Always make that offer in your meditation each day. What can I do to serve and to help the plan today? I never fail to do that.
I think it's one of the most important things that we can do. As long as we're doing this and working with our soul, it won't withdraw and we'll continue to have something to offer to the world. So time is coming in the new age, when all children will be studied, first of all, astrologically, to see what the life tendencies and the purpose of the soul is for that life. Psychologically, using the best of modern psychology, and also a study of the seven ray types,
to see what ray these children are on. Some of you may know about the rays. They're given in D.K.'s teachings. The first ray is will and power. Second ray is love wisdom. Third ray is active intelligence. Fourth ray is harmony through conflict. Under this comes the arts and poetry, this type of thing.
Fifth ray is science. Sixth ray is devotion and idealism. A person, for instance, who always had some type of guru, very Jesus-oriented, as many Catholics are, or perhaps some East Indian guru, a very devotional person. Seventh ray is ceremonial order and magic.
This is a person who likes lots of ritual in their religion. So we're all on one of these rays. In fact, we have a soul ray, a personality ray, and a mental, astral, and physical body ray. So if we know what rays these children are on, we have quite a clue into what is going on with them. I've been giving ray readings, and I've found it's really a fascinating subject.
It's difficult. It's really hard. You really have to probe into a person to find out what rays they're on. But when you begin to know what rays you're on, you begin to understand yourself. And I think it's most interesting. So first with astrologically, they'll be studied. Then psychologically, knowing what rays they're on.
Then medically, with special attention to the endocrine glands. Because remember, they're linked with the chakras of the etheric spine, the energy centers. So when you look at a person clairvoyantly and begin to realize how the endocrine glands are working, you can realize which chakras are active and which ones aren't active. So this gives you a good many clues, too.
Next, vocationally, to know what the mind is doing. To know what their gifts and capacities are for that life. What can they most contribute to a group? What will be their best thing that they can give of themselves? And then spiritually, to study the age of the soul and to know where they are on the ladder of evolution. It wouldn't be a good idea to impose these new age techniques on children who are not new age children.
Some of them, of course, would. The dream, study of the dream, some of those things. But if you have a child who is still of an Atlantean consciousness, which was mostly emotional, you cannot train them the same way as an Aryan type, which is beginning to be more mental, or the new age type, which will be highly mental and very idealistically oriented.
So you have to know these things in order to give them the right training. Because they wouldn't benefit from the advanced training if they weren't ready for it. Part of it they would, but not all of it. How can a person prepare to have one of these new age children if you would like to be the parent of one of these? I found this important because I have my class at the college and so many of those young people will be having children in the future,
and they're studying these things. So I think they'll be some of the parents of these new age children. Well, Jeffrey Hodson gave quite a bit on this matter. He said that during the nine months, the prenatal period, there's a great deal of work to be done if you want to bring in one of these new age children. The mother should try to maintain her soul contact during those nine months to the best of her ability.
You should listen to good music, elevating type music. Read the best literature that you can find. Study the great artworks. Eat the right kind of food. Everyone in this work needs to be on at least partially a health food type diet so that you can keep your body working the best that it can. I think you need to do... Well, I think these Tibetan rejuvenation exercises are just great.
Sometimes maybe I can come and give a demonstration of those. So many things have been coming through lately on keeping the body strong and going so that all of us who are working on the right side can help bring in this new age. The forces are taking a strong stand now too. Everyone is needed who's thinking along the right way. They need to keep their bodies going
so that they'll be here to work as long as they can. So those are some of the things that the mother can do while she's preparing to have one of these new age children. Oh, thank you. But one thing that we cannot do, and that is try to force this young entity into any special direction. There must be complete freedom of the soul to decide what path he or she will take.
So there must be no forcing on that one issue. The freedom of the ego has to be guarded. These children won't be the easiest to raise. I think we've all heard of 12-year-old geniuses who have gotten into college, and here they are mentally highly developed, but the body is not kept up. The body is still 12 years old.
And this tends to make these young people into loners. They don't fit in with dating as their peers are doing or in sports or anything else. And so this will be a responsibility for the parent to keep this child busy in other ways besides just the mental development too. So he doesn't become a completely introverted or a loner. This will be a hard problem.
They won't be the easiest children in the world to raise because their mind is going to be racing ahead. They're going to need lots of material to keep up with their minds, lots of stimulation mentally. But also they have to keep their bodies going the right way with their own age groups. So it will be a little difficult. But there are many great souls who have been waiting a long time now
to come in to the right families. They won't come in where they're going to be fed all the wrong food and trained the wrong way. They're waiting for the right homes to come in to them. And I think this will be a wonderful service to have one of these new age children. And what a challenge to bring one up the right way. In closing my talk,
I wanted to read a little something to you here from this is called The Two Books of the Stanzas of Zion by Madame Blavatsky. And it tells quite a bit about the coming races and some of the cataclysmic changes that will take place on our planet before the sixth root race comes in. Remember now, I've been talking about the sixth subrace, which is part of our fifth Aryan root race.
But the sixth root race will be coming in too, a great race into the future. But there will be some that come in ahead of time to help, like Madame Blavatsky being, she was one. So I think this is so interesting. And I read you about four little pages here about some of the cataclysmic changes that will take place on our planet and what will be happening before then.
Since the beginning of the Atlantean race, many million years have passed. Yet we find the last of the Atlanteans still mixed up with the Aryan element 11,000 years ago. This shows the enormous overlapping of one race over the race which succeeds it. Though in characters and external types, the elder loses its characteristics
and assumes the new features of the younger race. This is proved in all the formations of mixed human races. Now occult philosophy teaches that even now, under our very eyes, the new races are preparing to be formed, and that it is in America that transformation will take place, and has already silently commenced. Pure Anglo-Saxons, hardly 300 years ago, the Americans of the United States have already become a nation apart,
and owing to a strong mixture of various nationalities and intermarriage, almost are racially generous, not only mentally but also physically. Thus the Americans have become, in only three centuries, a primary race, before becoming a race apart, and strongly separated from all other now existing races. This is interesting, I think that already we are starting to be a race apart, and it will be quite a while before all of this really happens, but the germs of it are already starting.
They are, in short, the germs of the sixth sub-race, and in some few hundred years more will become most decidedly the pioneers of that race which must succeed the present European or fifth sub-race in all its new characteristics. After this, in about 25,000 years, they will launch into preparations for the seventh sub-race, until, in consequence of cataclysms, the first series of those which must one day destroy Europe,
and still later the whole Aryan race, and thus affect both North and South America, as also most of the lands directly connected with the confines of our continent and isles, the sixth root race will have appeared on the stage of our realm. When shall this be? Who knows, save the great masters of wisdom, perchance. And they are as silent upon the subject as the snow-capped peaks that tower above them. All we know is that it will silently come into existence.
So silently, indeed, that for long millenniums shall its pioneers, the peculiar children who will grow into peculiar men and women, be regarded as abnormal oddities physically and mentally. See, at first, they will seem to be the strange ones, but gradually, as more and more of them develop, they will become what is normal, and what has seemed strange in the beginning will just be a part of what they are.
It's like we think of the... Say, take, for example, the pygmy race. We would have thought at one time that they were normal, but now they have become the oddity,
[51:00] Development of the main themes
whereas our present races have become the majority. Let's see. They will vegetate, degenerate, and finally die out, perhaps millions of years hence, as the Aztecs have, as the Nyam-Nyam and Dwarfish-Mulkeruma of the Nilgeri Hills are dying. All these are the remnants of once mighty races, the recollection of whose existence has entirely died out of the remembrance of the modern generations,
just as we shall vanish from the memory of the sixth race humanity. The fifth will overlap the sixth race for many hundreds of millenniums, changing with it slower than its new successor, still changing in stature, general physique, and mentality, just as the fourth overlapped our Aryan race, and the third it overlapped the Atlanteans. This process of preparation for the sixth great race must last throughout the whole sixth and seventh sub-races,
but the last remnants of the fifth continent will not disappear until some time after the birth of the new race, when another and a new dwelling, the sixth continent, will have appeared above the new waters on the face of the globe, so as to receive the new stranger. To it also will emigrate and settle all those who shall be fortunate enough to escape the general disaster. When this shall be, as just said, is not for the writer to know,
only as nature no more proceeds by sudden jumps and starts, than man changes suddenly from a child into a mature man, the final cataclysm will be preceded by many smaller submersions and destructions, both by wave and volcanic fires. The exultant pulse will beat high in the heart of the race, now in the American zone, but there will be no more Americans when the sixth race commences, no more, in fact, in Europe,
for they will have then become a new race, and many new nations. Yet the fifth will not die but survive for a while, overlapping the new race for many hundred thousands of years to come. It will become transformed with it, slower than its new successor, still getting entirely altered in mentality, general physique, and stature. Mankind will not grow again into giant bodies, as in the case of the Lemurians and the Atlanteans, because while the evolution of the fourth race
led the latter down to the very bottom of materiality and its physical development, the present race is on its ascending arc, and the sixth will be rapidly growing out of its bonds of matter and even of flesh. Thus it is that the mankind of the new world, one by far the senior of our old one, a fact men had also forgotten, of the Antipodes or the Netherworld, as America is called in India, whose mission and karma it is to sow the seeds for a fourth race,
of forthcoming grandeur and far more glorious race than any of those we know of at present. The cycles of matter will be succeeded by cycles of spirituality and a fully developed mind. On the law of parallel history and races, the majority of the future mankind will be composed by glorious adepts. Humanity is the child of cyclic destiny, and not one of its units can escape its unconscious mission or get rid of the burden of its cooperative work with nature.
Thus will mankind, race after race, perform its appointed cyclic pilgrimages. Climates will and have already begun to change, each tropical year after the other, dropping one sub-race, only to beget another higher race on the ascending cycle, while a series of other less favored groups, the failures of nature,
will, like some individual men, vanish from the human family without even leaving a trace behind. I don't feel that anyone is lost, really, but I think they may not go ahead with our races on this planet. Such is the course of nature under the sway of karmic law, of the ever-present and the ever-becoming nature. For in the words of a sage, known only to a few occultists, and this is a quote,
The present is the child of the past, the future the begotten of the present. And yet, O present moment, knowest thou not that thou hast no parent, nor canst thou have a child, that thou art ever-begetting but thyself, before thou hast even begun to say, I am the progeny of the departed moment,
the child of the past, thou hast become that past itself. Before thou utterest the last syllable, behold, thou art no more the present, but verily that future. Thus are the past, the present, and the future, the ever-living trinity in one, the great illusion of the Absolute Is.
Thank you. I thought you might enjoy this, because... Madam Blavatsky, you know, was allowed into Tibet where she saw the old commentaries, the very, very ancient writings that were preserved there in Tibet, and this little book is taken from those writings, and it's a fascinating little book. She tells about some of the previous races that lived,
the blue people and the giants of Lemuria, and all other things. It's a fascinating little book that she was allowed to receive this information about. Does anyone have any questions? What is the name of that book? It's called Two Books of the Stanzas of Zion, and that's spelled D-Z-Y-A-N, by Madam Blavatsky. It's the only one I've ever found.
I found this in a secondhand book in Long Beach, and a lot of people have asked me, you know, if they could get one, and I don't know, it seems to be out of print or something. Nobody seems to be able to get one, and I feel I was very lucky to find it. It may be in print somewhere, but I've never seen it in any bookstore. I just found it in this old secondhand bookstore. I'm haunting all the secondhand bookstores,
because hardbacks are getting very difficult to get, and if you want to fill out your library in metaphysics with hardback books, I think you have to begin to find them. They're getting scarce. Yes? Cycles of initiation? Like the races, you mean? Yes.
For instance, coming into the Aquarian age, we're entering a 2,500 year cycle, I believe that it is. But we're also entering a greater cycle, a 23,000 year cycle, where our whole solar system is going around the central sun, Vega. And this is what's making this point right now so very important in history. We're going into two Aquarian cycles, which may have never happened before. I don't know, it might have happened before, but it certainly would have been a long, long time if it did happen before.
And our planetary logos, who is the head of this planet, has also taken an initiation, which means that our whole planet itself is stepping up now. And people who cannot meet that vibration, which will be higher all the time, I think are beginning to see this coming about now, even this soon, if they cannot measure up to that vibration, then they won't be reborn here.
I don't think they'll be done for. I don't think anyone is done for. But I think they won't go ahead with this life wave. The Master DK says that two-fifths will be removed during the middle of this round. See, we're now past the middle, so just past it. And I think we see a lot of people going out now with starvation, and there may be some cataclysms. Who knows what is going to happen?
I don't think we go around being afraid of this either. But it is important, I think, to do our work and to get our consciousness on as high a level as possible. Yes, Barbara? They'll be somewhat taller, uh-huh, and slender. It seems like a generation right now. It is taller, uh-huh. I used to feel awfully tall. I don't feel that way anymore.
I see so many. My son's girl and my son just came down from Washington, and she's almost six feet tall. This is a pretty girl, and she wears really high heels. You know, it doesn't concern her one bit that she is so tall. I think you see this a lot now. Any other questions? Yes? Is this Tibetan in here?
Yes. He is a Tibetan master, the head of a monastery in Tibet, although I'm sure that he's a fifth-degree initiate. As a member of the hierarchy, I'm sure that the members of his monastery don't have any idea of the development that he has. Is he still a... Oh, yes, uh-huh. Is he still active?
Oh, yes. I understand that he has moved up another notch, and when the Christ goes on to further development, he will take that position, that office of the Christ. Well, I don't know that I really can add much about it even, but she does say that there was a race of blue people, and they would never be again. That's about all I really have to say.
No, I think they were way before then, probably in the very early stages of Lemuria, I believe. Don't quote me on that. I'm not absolutely positive of that, but this was long, long, long ago. I don't know, have you heard that they were in the British Isles? Yes, there is something in here about it. Maybe during the break we can look it up in here. I saw it just a little bit ago, and I've kind of forgotten what it said.
I haven't read this book clear through for quite a while. Did somebody else have a question? It's like a reincarnation process that goes through. Yes, uh-huh. Our planet itself is reincarnating, you might say, frequently. Like cycles. Yes, cycles. Never-ending cycles.
I think so. I don't think there's any end to development. I think it goes on forever. You're talking about eons, aren't you? Yes, many, many thousands of years, more than that even. I heard of children being born with the golden liquid in their veins instead of red blood, and there was a doctor that gave the child a transfusion. Would that be children? I hadn't heard about that, so I don't really know.
I know that there is a nectar within the body that the yogis are able to tap for rejuvenation and for health purposes, and they turn their tongue back. A yogi told me about this, and they push up on the palate with their tongue, and there's a young child, and they practice stretching the tongue so that they can do this rather dangerous thing. But it'll only happen in a very positive, meditative-type spiritual person, and then this releases this nectar, which they swallow, and which is rejuvenating. It's the same way on our planet.
When we have negative thoughts and when we have our racial prejudices and all the wars and things, this reacts on our physical bodies in a very negative way and brings diseases to us. The same thing happens on a larger scale to our planet, because symbolically we're the cells on our planet, of our planet, developing through our planet as our cells are evolving through us. And when this gets too bad, things happen as they did in Atlantis, and we have a great destructive thing on the planet.
It's from all the negativity of all of us that brings it about, our hurricanes and our floods and volcanic eruptions, this type of thing. If we could just all be positive, helpful people to one another, if we could do that, our whole planet could be so beautiful. I think this is part of our purpose, dear, to awaken people to this fact. Yes? Have you any information? Well, there was a lot said about that. I don't know how much time do I have.
Have any of you heard of Ray Brown? Well, at the Dallas Convention, I thought he was one of the most fascinating speakers. He is a diver, and he's also a naturopathic doctor from Phoenix. And he was out looking for artifacts off the coast of Bimini, and they had a huge storm. And he said they really just had to tie themselves down on their boats, and they're going to get through the night. Well, the next day, they found that this storm had swept a great floss
through the floor of the ocean. And they saw many artifacts down there, so they decided to dive immediately, of course. And while he was down there diving, he paused for a moment on a piece of coral, and he looked up, and he saw this huge pyramid under the water. I think he said 90 feet from the floor, but still completely under water. And he was terribly thrilled by this, of course. And so he swam around it, and he saw an opening. And he went into it, and he said it had seven stone chairs around the side with one elevated.
And in the middle was a pedestal with hands cupped like this with a crystal ball in them. And he had this crystal ball at the convention. He wouldn't let any of us touch it because he said it emanated such energy that it knocked one person flat. But etched inside of it were three pyramids sort of staggered like this. You could see them in there kind of smoky-like. This is making too much noise. You could see this in this crystal ball.
So he said that he was just fascinated by this. And coming down from the apex of the pyramid was a rod with a red stone at the end of it above these hands holding this crystal. Well, all of a sudden he said he began to get a very strange feeling that he had better get out of there. And so he went over just to see the ball. And a little more time he touched it, and it was loose. So he picked it up and brought it out with him. Let's see now.
There's one other point I was going to bring out about that. Oh, yes. There was a man at the convention doing Kirlian photography. And, you know, that's where they do your fingerprint. You've probably seen it. I should have brought one of those along. And you put your hand here, and they photograph it. And the energy radiates like a ball of light around your thumb.
Well, they did this, and then they held this crystal over it and would do it again. And the energy was ten times more with the crystal held over this thumb. So some people thought, gee, that's a good story. But I don't know. After the Kirlian photography part, I felt that it probably was true, because Edgar Cayce said that that was a part of Atlantis there and that it would rise, be one of the first parts of Atlantis to rise, and that there were healing temples there.
I think this pyramid may have been a great energy, um, force there in this pyramid, maybe the crystal was. People said, do you think he should have removed it? And he said, well, that has bothered him since, too. He said he just did it on the spur of the moment and got out of there. And he doesn't know whether he did the wrong thing taking that crystal out or not either. It was certainly interesting anyway. What size is that? Four inch crystal?
Um, not a real big one. About like that. What would that be? About... Three inch or a baseball? Not even quite as big as a baseball, I wouldn't say. Yeah? In the three areas, do you breathe it at a time, or do you breathe it at a time? No, I just keep pulling it in, in three places. And one thing I...
All right, I left out one... He doesn't give this part, but I think it's very important to always link with your soul before you do any spiritual rituals. This puts everything on a higher level. I always do that myself. But anyway, I think you should link with your soul, and then just mentally pull in these little globules that you can see in the atmosphere.
Pull them in between the shoulder blades to the top of the neck there, down here at the spleen, and then at the diaphragm, which is about here. Go around three times before it starts to enter the bloodstream. So in other words, do it a lot more than three times. I just do it when I go out to get the morning paper every morning. It's just become a part of it when I'm riding my bicycle or riding my bike a lot, and I'm outdoors then, and I do it.
You don't have to do it. You don't have to make a special deal. You can be walking downtown when you're alone or something. Just do it every day. I haven't had a cold for just years. You don't have to have these things. A lot of it, I think, is mass consciousness that we accept into our own thinking
when that time of year rolls around. So is that all the questions then? Well, it was off the coast of Bimini. It was in the Bermuda Triangle. I don't think he has it pinpointed exactly himself. He said that he was going up. He was at the Dallas Convention, and that was in July. And he said in about five weeks he was going to go back there
and see if he could find it again. Investigate it a little more thoroughly. He was not an oddball type. Really, he was a very impressive personality, and he is a naturopath doctor. I felt he seemed very level-headed and a good figure. I felt he seemed very level-headed and a good figure. I felt he seemed very level-headed and a good figure.
I felt he seemed very level-headed and a good figure. We all enjoyed him a lot. We all enjoyed him a lot. We all enjoyed him a lot. Well, oh, one more. Well, oh, one more. Did he offer any explanation as to why this area was not in No, in fact he didn't mention that.
It might have been. He didn't say anything about that. But he swam around that pyramid three times, as I recall, But he swam around that pyramid three times, as I recall, before he even saw the opening. And then he went into it. So whether it opened up while he was walking around, while he was on the way around, or he missed it, I don't know.
But he felt that it was uncovered by that storm. Thank you very much for inviting me to speak on the boat. Questions and answers and see if Elaine can give us the proper answers. I don't know what you put there. Does anybody have any more? Yes. He was at the convention in Dallas, too. That's the only way that I know him, but I did talk to him a little bit.
He teaches the Alice Bailey teaching and gave some good talks. I don't know anything more about him than that. Yes, Lee. I wish I had brought some of those little books. Yeah, I could tell you about them. These are from a Tibetan monastery where these monks are very ancient. And there was a Colonel Bradford who heard about these monks while he was in India. And he couldn't find out where this monastery was when he was discharged.
So he decided he would go back to India and try to find them in Tibet. And he finally did, and he spent four years with them. And you do these every day. You work up to doing them 25, or rather 21 times a day. And what the purpose of them is, is why I'm especially impressed with them, rather than just, more than yoga exercise, I might say, is because the whole principle of them is to speed up the spinning of the chakras in the esoteric body.
This is what's behind them. And we know that as you get older, those chakras begin to slow down. And this causes the aging process. If we had a towel or something, I could show them to you. They're not all that difficult. But you do have to get down on the floor to do them. The first one is just spinning like this. And remember, all white magic rituals are done clockwise.
Black magic rituals are done counterclockwise. So you just put your arms out. And spin rapidly around 21 times. That one is the most important one. You can all do that. If you focus on some object like, say, the clock as you go around. Ballet dancers do this. You won't get so dizzy.
Don't do very many to start out with. You know, just work up gradually. Start out with maybe five spins and gradually work up. I think he said 10 weeks before you're doing 21. I don't get dizzy anymore doing it, and you won't either. Well, you're doing your feet. I didn't see your feet. Well, let me show you.
I'll show you how to do it. You won't get dizzy at all. The next one, you lie on the floor. And you lift your... The chin is involved in all of these. Remember that the throat center is connected with the sex center. And you lie on your back. You lift your legs straight up.
Your body is flat on the floor. The legs come up, and the chin comes forward to the chest. And then as the legs go down, the chin goes back down on the floor. Do this 21 times. The next one, you're on your knees with your toes turned up. Or like this, anyway. There's your head. Okay.
Your toes are up. Oh, that doesn't make sense, does it? Oh, let's see. Anyway, you're down on your knees, and your toes are like this. Don't put your toes flat. Your toes are like that. Okay, you lean forward a little ways, and then you lean way, way back. And your hands are at your thighs.
You're on your knees. You do that one 21 times. The next one, you sit down like this. Your legs are out in front, and you're sitting on the floor. All right, and your hands are at your thighs. You lift up your body, and your knees go up so that you're parallel. I'm a terrible artist. This would look...
Your arms are down like that. The position you get in. This is your hands, pointed forward. And then you come back down, and you're just in a sitting position like that. Yes. Raising up your thighs. Uh-huh. So that you're parallel here.
And this isn't right, because when you start out, your chin is down. As you come up, your head goes back like that as far as you can. The last one... I'll never be able to draw that one. The last one, you lie on your stomach on the floor. Your hands two feet apart. Two feet apart. And your fanny comes up like this.
And then you swoop down up the other way. Up and then down. It's sort of like a push-up in a way. But at one point... No, you're on your stomach. Start out with your... Go up like that. And then you swing up the other way.
You swing up kind of like that the other way. And your hands are down here like this.
[01:16:02] Questions and closing discussion
Everyone had to be over 70 to do these. Because he felt that it rejuvenated them so. And they needed it so much at that age. I know a man that's done them longer than I have. Maybe six months longer than I have. And his hair is starting to turn back from gray. Well, of course there are other ways. There are a lot of ways of service.
I think just meditation you can help the world. And I think a lot of these yogis that are in caves in the Himalaya Mountains, you know. They're sending forth thoughts to help the world. That's one way of service too. But I think in the West we are living active outer lives. And I agree with you on that too. I don't see personal development without sharing it myself. Oh.
Well, one person that has a contact with, at least with the ashram of Dval Kul, said that they were told by this contact that, and this would be on inner plane, that no more real disciples will be removed now until the new age is in. They need every worker so much that they're not going to remove any more disciples now. I don't suppose they'll take just everybody in. I don't know about that. Do you know? Yes, I imagine that is true.
You couldn't even get in probably. Yes, I think that would be true. Have any of you read The Way of the White Clouds by Anagarika Govinda? That's a very good book. He traveled through the Tibetan monasteries and was made a lama. I believe he's English. He's been in this area, in the L.A. area. Were there any women there?
Well, you know, Madame Blavatsky dressed up like a man and went into Tibet. I really admire that woman. She did a lot of things that were quite, I suppose, unconventional. But she really led a fascinating life. She dressed up like a man, traveled through Tibet, and received all these teachings. Master D.K. in the alphabetic books always refers to her as he, because as a member of the hierarchy, she is a man. But she took that female body to write the secret doctrine and to give out this new age teaching.
But he always refers to her as he, because that's the way they know her as a member of the hierarchy. Madame Blavatsky? Not as far as I know. Oh, really? I don't know. I kind of doubt that, but I don't know. How about their dietary habits? Like eating a lot of meat and fresh food?
Not much meat, I'm afraid. It's said in this little book that once in a while they ate meat, but very seldom. And they never ate egg whites. They said egg whites build only muscle, and you should only eat them if you're just doing really hard physical work. They ate raw egg yolks. Every day they ate one raw egg yolk. A couple eggs every day. Well, they're not really down on eggs.
Just egg whites they didn't feel were of any value. Why drink all the water? There was also a sixth rite given, which is if you want to live a celibate life, then this is to transmit the sex force to the brain rather than using it in the creative way or just in sex. And this exercise is given in the book, too. And I think it's good to know. For instance, I gave my class at the methadone clinic for heroin addicts, and I think some of those boys, you know, end up in prison.
In fact, a lot of them ended up in prison. They were just waiting their trials and things. I think there are cases where it might be very well to know that exercise. Well, I can show that one to you. Breathe out all your air. When you come up, breathe in. And then you hold it there, and you push down on your hips. Fortunately, it only went up.
It didn't keep going up and down. It went back down, up and down several times in a while. Who had heard about the kundalini force, and he knew what had happened to her. And he said, you'll just have to wait for a while and be quiet until the body catches up to you. Fortunately, she had that kind of guidance in there. Yes, I think it's very dangerous to fool around with the kundalini. Well, the kundalini force is the sex force that resides at the base of the spine and the lowest chakra. And great adepts transmute that energy up into the brain where it's used for other types of creativity,
like a great artist or meditation faculties or something like that, rather than this force going out in sexual activity. But if it's raised before the body is ready for it, it can tear open the etheric webs between the chakras, and then you're in real trouble because it's fire. It is a fire energy. Yes. I think so too.
D.K. says don't meditate on the chakras and don't concentrate on that, that they'll open when the time is right without you forcing it in any way. I think that's very wise instruction. You don't think there's actually... No, this is really to suppress the sex. It's not to force. It's not to... No, I don't think this exercise is...
It's not the same as, for instance, kundalini yoga, which is definitely... I know. They're teaching this to a lot of kids, and I don't know if any of you know Tarkham Saradarian, but he's an Alice Bailey teacher, and he's had young kids in his class that have been in this kundalini yoga movement, and he said some of them have gotten brain tumors from it.
I think it's really dangerous. I don't think many people who read this little book are going to practice that fifth rite anyway. There's not that many people that want to practice celibacy around, but it is in there. But I don't think that's the same as really working on, you know, daily to try to... Well, I think it is partly, and I don't think there's any shortcut to spirituality. It's hard work, and it's discipline.
We don't... Any of us discipline ourselves as much as we should. Yes, please. Do you find a great interest among your college students? Yes. They're more and more young people, I think, turning to this. It seems like they're either getting into the Pentecostal movement or they're getting into metaphysics.
And to me it shows whether they're on a mental level or an emotional level, because the Pentecostal appeals to people who are emotionally oriented. And it's right for them at that period. I'm not saying that it's wrong, but it shows the difference between the two states of development as far as I'm concerned. Yes. I think there is. They had over 10,000 people up here at Anaheim recently at one of their conventions.
You don't see any 10,000 at metaphysical conventions. You're lucky if you see a thousand. But they're not the... They're not the... The metaphysical is not the mass. You know, it's not the mass of humanity. That's not quite the same, I don't think. But I don't like to talk against any groupies.
I shouldn't even have brought that up. But I have noticed that, that young people are going more or less one of the other ways to a great extent. People are still looking for phenomena. Yes, they are, aren't they? And they don't want to work hard and meditate every day. You've got to be faithful about meditating if you want to get anywhere at it. You've got to do it every single day.
Pick out a time and a place and do it. And when you think how important it is, it's a lot more important than anything else you can do, you know. Do you think there's areas that are put in time, like early in the morning or evening? I think it's better in the morning, but I think the point is to do it every day. If you can't do it in the morning, do it some other time. But the air is clearer then and there. You don't have the negative thoughts of the whole world in operation like they are in the evening.
The prana is much stronger in the morning, in the air. I think the morning is the best time. But I don't think it's the only time. Well, I probably can't put time to 10 o'clock. I better let everybody go. Thanks again for inviting me. We surely enjoyed listening to you, Elaine. Well, maybe you could come back and bring some of these books
and do some of these exercises for us. That's one thing I wanted to ask you while you were up here, is to tell us something about this cruise that you're studying. So I'm hoping a lot of people who didn't even know that this was going to be on the ship will come. But we have 18 and I think two others so far going on the cruise with us. And it's a release from San Diego April 25th. It's a 20-day cruise. It comes back May 16th.
It sails down the coast of New Mexico. It's a cargo ship. So the stops are not really outlined. We don't know where they're going to stop. They're going to stop at Aquaculture. And at Corinth and Nicaragua is the last stop. There are probably three or four stops. And it's 20 days.
And all the meals, of course, you know how they seem to do on ships. Even though this is a cargo ship, they have wonderful meals. It's a Chinese oriental disease line. They're kind of detailed. The rooms are bigger than they are in the luxury lines. I don't see the rooms. They're really quite roomy. There are no bunk beds.
They're all twin beds. Or you can get a single. The least expensive room is $660. Now for 20 days, that's only about $30 a day. You can't travel by car and stay in hotels and find meals for that. And then before, finally, there's always moving up the deck. Or if you want to move, there's portholes. But there's an inside little deck that you can sit on.
Well, how many did you say they can accommodate? Well, still, I don't have reports of the drone mediation group going. You may know Maria Hardy is going to do. She's going. And George Paul, you know. Four people from Seattle are coming. And people from a lot of different places out there. It's just that this crew is best out fast.
I was going to do it. The first letter that I wrote to Barbara, I had mentioned to her, I was going to do it in October. That was already sold out. So was the January cruise. So I had to move mine up to April because I was gone all summer. And the whole line was out. And I just didn't get going on it.
So I had to move it up to April. That's the only thing about her. Any of them, they sell out fast. Because it's about half price in the luxury liner crew. If anybody would like to go, I've got some material on it. I've got some brochures. And you can either let me know or let all these former travel agents know. You only have to put, oh, another thing.
You only have to put down 100 dollars in your pocket. And save a room. And if you find out two months ahead of time that you just can't go, you can put your full-time holiday back. And after that, you don't have to pay the rest of the three-day support. But it's going to be a lot of fun, I know. And because they're a cargo ship, that's why it's less expensive. They're ships because they stop in so many years.
Let's give Elaine a picture.
