A Treatise on Cosmic Fire - Section Three - Division C - Seven Esoteric Stanzas
STANZA XVII (From Archaic Formulas. No. 49) PATH II. The Path of Magnetic Work. The cosmic Burning-ground of living fire lieth in the nethermost part of the western heavens. Its smoke riseth unto that high place where dwell the Sacred Lhas to Whom the triple Unity within our solar space tender Their offerings and Their fealty. Its scent of spices sweet and faint aroma of incandescent... reach to the utmost confines of the starry vault. The Two arise and pass the essential Flame through Their burning-ground, blending Their lesser smoke with the greater. This smoke formeth a Path which reacheth forth unto those spheres within the radiant form of that Attractive Life, to Whom the sons of being and of men in all their many grades offer their prayers, their life and adoration. The Master on this sphere, which is known as the fourth and is not holy, seeth the fiery WAY; He respondeth to its heat and seeks to warm Himself within its waves of radiant fire electric. A center at the midway point within the great Kumaric Body formeth the pyre. It pulsates and it glows. It becomes a sea of living fire and draws within itself its own. The smoke which issues from this fiery wheel formeth a living WAY, veiling the steps ahead. [1271] The Master - with the midway wheel on fire - enters within the smoke, and enters blind. He sees no step ahead. He hears no voice. He feels no guiding hand. Only the fifth and latest known aids Him to forward grope, and pass straight onward through the veiling clouds; only the awakening of His wheel may indicate His progress through the new magnetic field. Only the sons of... (GEMINI) know the way in; only the sons with blazing fire, issuing from the midway point, may enter in. They throw their beams ahead to illuminate the WAY. The Adept of the funeral pyre, the Master of the blazing sphere consumes Himself. Offering Himself the One that is, the new-made threefold Word, the sacred OM, the fire of God, He treads the burning-ground, and blazes forth to those who watch as a radiant flaming sun. He... and draws the people onward to their goal, warming their hearts, producing dual fire, and leading all towards the portal of the sun and thence to... (GEMINI). The mystic Word is veiled by letters four - E, M, and A and O -. In the significance of their numbers and the utilization of their colors is the smoke dissipated. [1272]
