How to Free the Master With the Rosicrucian Way

“Free the Master Within”

The great Temples of God are the human bodies, and such Temples serve for the housing of a mighty Master within. Spiritual thirst people need to realize that the “God within” is the Master Who dwells within the Sanctuary of the human heart and find power in the human mind.

Into the child with its first breath enters the Cosmic Soul, the Mind of the Cosmic and the personality of the Master Who is to rule within and govern the man without. The Master within must wait while the new Temple learns to serve him. He guards the health of the Temple well and inspires the heart to be kind, the brain to think and reason. He waits in patience for the time when the brain and heart will say to him, “Master, this Holy Temple is yours; use it however you choose.”

While the Master Within is held a prisoner, the objective, physical eyes are trained to see to the extent of adding glasses and using microscopes and telescopes to help those physical eyes, but the physical eyes of the Master Within are never developed and are even denied existence. Too frequently the psychic voice is robbed of development while the physical tongue is being educated to express itself in the same old conventional ways of the conventional world.

Oh, what a Master we find within the human adult! It is kept BLIND, DEAF, DUMB; certainly this is not Mastership. And yet, the Master is there, ready to rule and reign, to guide and direct, to speak and be heard, to see and understand, to hear and perceive through the psychic facilities which were of just the same power and development as the objective ones when the Master first entered the Temple but now have become paralyzed, stinted, and denied in the majestic MATERIAL MAN.

Man is born neither free not a slave. An infant is a slave to the autocratic rules of two minds: the parent, human mind, and the laws of nature. Preference, or the ability too make choice is gradually developed in a child. Free agency is the belief that the man has the right to DEMAND and SELECT what he prefers. However, our freedom is limited to SELECTION from among impulses and desires, but we are never free from those desires and impulses.

We need to realize the Master Within, is there like a personal representative of the Cosmic God, as a part entity of the Cosmic Mind resident within man to “direct him,” and man is then free to choose between what the Director says and what he himself wishes to do.

If we have willfully kept the Master Within suppressed for years, it will require much more effort for us to arouse It at this time. If psychic development were permitted to keep pace with the physical in every normal child, no method of instruction for Its development would ever be necessary in later life.

The average child has more psychic development during the first two years of life than during any other years of its existence. That’s the reason the spiritual thirsty person must begin his psychic development where he left off, whether that be at the cradle or later.

The psychic man has to do with the soul, subconscious mind, the life force and psychic attributes or qualities of man. The psychic body has its organization, or its organism, just as the material body of man has. The autonomic nevous system is the medium for the subconscious mind or the psychic mind to carry out the commands of the psychic body.

The relation between the objective mind or brain and the subconscious mind is maintained through the delicate nerve fibres. Consequently, every physical part of man can be affected by psychic or cosmic influences. Man’s psychic body and the mind can reach out into space, independent of the physical body.

Therefore, in projection of the consciousness, what really passes from the physical body is a consciousness or mentality of some kind which we could call the psychic body. Sometimes, it is only a haze or mist, oval in shape, like the aura which surrounds the human body; or sometimes it is only a large white ball of light floating in space, and sometimes only the head or part of the body is visable. A projection is definitely not of a material nature. It is radiant with a soft white-violet, or violet-white glow which may sometimes appear to be only white, and at other times a light blue.

For you spiritual experimenters who want to test the preparatory steps of Astral Projection, to free your Inner Master, here is a simple exercise:
A. A comfortable position in any easy chair in a dark or semidark room.
B. When perfectly at ease, relax for a few minutes.
C. Concentrate on the consciousness in your body, beginning with your feet and ascending to the scalp and hair. Become sensitive to your concentration by realizing that portion of your body. This awakens the psychic conciousness in all parts of the body. This should take about ten minutes or so.
D. Take a deep breath; hold it as long as you can; exhale slowly. Inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth. Do this about 10 times. As you exhale through the mouth, try to exhale ALL the dead poisonous air trapped in the bottom chambers of your lungs completely. Then, try to use your will power to release or push out from your physical body the “psychic” body! Keep your mouth closed, and keep forcing all the remaining dead air out of your lungs. Bon Voyage!! Don’t worry about not being able to come back. If you are successful in projecting, you will return with a noticeable “thud” to the physical body. If you are successful, check out the scenery while out, and please do let me know if you see any Masters there!

Blessings!
