The Ark
[QUOTING]
In the development of a transfiguristic Group, progress begins by means of a fundamental radiation of the Gnosis. This radiation is to be found everywhere in the world - there is no place where it is not present. While it is world-embracing, it emanates from the magnetic body of a Brotherhood which entered into liberation in the centuries behind us and which radiates its Glory into the dualistic life field in full splendor. It is of extraordinary significance to dualistic mankind that the universal gnostic light is transmuted by means of such a Brotherhood, for, if that were not the case, the fundamental radiation could not be intercepted by the night-dwellers.
Due to the presence of the fundamental gnostic radiation the work of the Group can begin. The Group knows how to make a link with it by means of group unity and directedness of purpose. By bringing this radiation into rotation, a force-field will come into being around the working-field of the Group. Then, the fundamental radiation, which vibration is entirely attuned to the force-field and the Group, will finally divide into seven rays. This division of the force-field into seven rays is called 'the out-pouring of the Holy Spirit'. This means that the seven powers manifest themselves in all those who live in the force-field. It forms itself into a light-field, into a magnetic sphere, into a new earth. All those who are connected with it will change fundamentally, structurally, they will transfigure.
This new development takes place very gradually, very methodically and entirely harmoniously. But notwithstanding all of this, it takes place with an irresistible tempo. Whoever are willing to live in the magnetic field of the Group should take into account that they will be taken along in that tempo; either to a resurrection or, in the case of those who prove to be recalcitrant, to a fall. When this Great Renovation starts, a journey for all those who are separated into the New Life-field begins, while the remainder of mankind stays behind in the ordinary magnetic body of nature. A change sets in and throughout the ages, this change has been described as a journey. So there is a question of a farewell. The two groups drift apart; the night-dwellers stay behind. Those who seek the New Morning are going away on a journey.
The change of those who separate will, at a given moment, have progressed so drastically that both worlds disappear from each other's sights. Long before this disappearance, a moment has arrived when beings from the old world-order will no longer be able to step over into the new order. The distance has then become too great, the difference too drastic. It is self-evident that the Group should exert itself to the utmost to make this transfer happen to the greatest number of seekers for as long as possible.
This is the classical task of the ferryman who has to lead all the pilgrims across the Styx, the separating river. The work of the ferryman, the harvesting of as many souls as possible out of the sea of life, will take place exclusively on the basis of the new fundamental radiation which calls and awakens all over the world. This activity will have to be supported by the workers who do the work through the Sevenfold Spirit. This work will be done by the fulfilling New Life itself that has touched the workers concerned. They will then say to all those who are still in the field of the night:
"Behold, I am still with you, but the time will come soon that this will no longer be the case. Now the ark, the new magnetic body of the Group, is still with you and if so desired, you can fulfill the conditions and enter. But if, seen from the point of space and time, the separation between you and us becomes unbridgeable, that entry will not be possible anymore. The Gnosis will close the door of the Ark".

"Whoever are willing to live in the magnetic field of the Group should take into account that they will be taken along in that tempo; either to a resurrection or, in the case of those who prove to be recalcitrant, to a fall."
Didn't see that coming.

d,
Perceptive of you to notice that.
If we voluntarily accept the Christ-radiations - the gnosis - and manage to partake of the New Life-field, we have but begun the process. Whether we persist to the ultimate resurrection of the True Soul or regress back to our fallen state is entirely up to us.
This happens when one accepts the invitation to become a part of the New Life-field but does not make the corresponding change in their attitude towards the dualistic life. A fundamental and complete reversal of our attitude towards the fallen world must ensue. If not, we will remain bound to this world, consistently attracting to ourselves the very forces that are opposed to the gnosis and our liberation.
We cannot serve two masters. Therefore, those who are unable to neutralize and release their attachment to the old world, or who seek the New Life-field as a means of self-preservation only, will find themselves ejected from the New Life-field. This is not an expulsion initiated by the Group, but rather, is the self-initiated result of an incompatibility of vibration, brought about through a lack of dedication or sincerity to walk The Path 100%.
To use an analogy: Let's say that a man is drowning and someone one on shore extends his hand to help him. The drowning man is given instructions to be calm, keep a firm grip, hold on, etc. If the drowning one grasps the hand but then proceeds to thrash about in
wild panic, he threatens the man on shore as well. If he does not trust in the man on shore and refuses to follow the clear instructions which were set forth for his own safety, the drowning one will have to be released, so that the man on shore can survive to perhaps help another.
Once we make the choice to take that first step on the Path, we have to keep walking it, every minute of every day, or risk falling back into the Sea of Despair.
As always, it is up to us. We choose.
