These are your shadows—your personalities.
What dies and is born is a mirage—a mere
phantasm—which you materialise for certain
purposes. All these purposes centralise in one
POTENTIALISED PURPOSE—the conquest of matter.
Realise that you the Ego, have your dwelling in Supernal
Regions—on the spiritual plane—with
your Father-in-Heaven—but that you have
come down into matter that you may find the fullest
possible objective expression. Realise that you,
the Ego, are a differentiated centre of consciousness
in the Great Consciousness—THE ABSOLUTE—EGO—SUM
of the entire Universe with all its gross and subtle
manifestations—that you are endowed with
all the powers and attributes of the Absolute Self.
Realise that you are not the emotional and passional
manifestations—surging up in your personality.
These are subject to the law of Flux and Rhythm and
must be brought under the control of Reason and Will—the
balancing, equating principle of mind. Realise
that you are not the mind nor the intellect, but that
you exercise this function in order to analyse the
external manifestations of nature and study same.
Realise that you are pure Consciousness, Bliss and
Existence in your essential nature—on with
the all-life. Realise that the form side of manifestation
is but a concentration, a precipitation within you.
Your subjective nature is one with the subjective
self of others—an inlet for the influx and
efflux of the GREAT SUB-CONSCIOUS. Realise thus
your Unity with All-Life-manifesting objectively as
Universal Brotherhood of all living beings and the
perfect recognition of the All-Father-Mother, the Great
Cosmic Power and Intelligence known as God whose intelligence
all-blissfulness and existence are ever pouring into
each Unit of Individualised Divine Energy and evolving
through nature. And, student, when you meditate
daily that you are neither the body nor the emotions
nor the mind, you shall then unfold the consciousness
of the “I am I” that which rules the personality
that which has been called Soul-Consciousness.
You shall then be Chaitanya-Spiritually awake.
You shall then know no Fear. Fear shall drop away
like a worn-out sheath. All fear-thoughts are
due to undeveloped race-consciousness which reacts
upon individual consciousness and is stamped more or
less upon every atom of matter. You ‘fear’
because you think you are the body. When you
realise that you can command as many bodies for your
use as you like; when you realise in your heart of
hearts that you are a Spiritual Being expressing and
energising through material personalities; when you
realise that you cannot die, fear shall be afraid of
you and drop tormenting and teasing you. Fear
resides in the matter-fed mind—that mind
which has been grown and matured by the reception and
re-action upon external sensations and stimuli—what
has been called the objective mind. This mind
identifies itself with the form, the body. It
has an incorrigible determination towards the form-side,
