I appreciated how the authors, on page 92, when speaking about the necessity of the soul mantram added "or some form of it". Keeps the focus of importance on the invocation behind the words. That being said, I quite love and appreciate the exact wording of the Soul mantram. In the sentence on page 94 " The body of light is built by the soul as a substitute for the absorbed personality." What is it that the personality is absorbed with? Also on 94 I quite like the description of "spiritual will, spiritual love, and higher mind" as the Souls subjective being.

Bryan, thank you for this insight......"or some form of it". Keeps the focus of importance on the invocation behind the words. You are correct in that it keeps the focus where it should be. And with the Souls subjective being behind it one feels bound to do well. What is it that the personality is absorbed with? I would think it could be anything whether in physical form, thoughtform, or perceptions. On page 83 the relative correlation of form to lower mind and formless to higher mind... I would think concrete and abstract could be added? You posted this last week, so you probably have already seen a confirmation of this in the first paragraph on page 96, which I won't retype here. Second paragraph on page 98 speaks to the same idea you found in the last sentence on page 88. Theresa

Aloha-Shining Ones- I too am glad to see what is stressed to listen to. It seems like the idea that practicing a decentralized personal ego center is facilitated by a concentrate mantra yoga impact that redirects thought energy to the Soul. Maybe once the Soul's attention is active in the soul star, the personality is readied by practice of concentrated focus on decentralization.. Then the Soul which is the night or the greater that includes the less, brings its shadow self that we call personality into a consciousness state. This state is that of Observer, witnessed. It is a high mind state for the personal self, and the abstract mind of the .Soul. This initiates the inauguration of Soul-infused personality. This would fit as a lower correspondence to the work described on p98: middle paragraph, .....it most important aspect is its linking between the Planetary Logos and His physical, Earth, as well as its importance as a transmitter of His energies through ourselves as units of intelligence within His body. The greater includes the lesser and Onesness is ever more a revealed state through more inclusive identifations. Kindly, Love & Strength, David
