Greetings Fratres and Sorores!
The past two messages were about The Law of the Triangle from the perspective of being the causative agent (that actions we engage in) and the receptive agent (when we allow ourselves to be acted upon). This message completes the triangle by discussing that which results. I hope you find it interesting, and I welcome any questions and/or comments on the topic.
To simplify, the Law of the Triangle is about manifesting. We are continuously doing so, whether we consciously choose to or not. Since it is the New Year (Julian calendar-wise) this often takes the form of New Year’s Resolutions. In 2014 I intend to lose weight, be more fit, take on a new career, start back to school, clean the garage, etc. A current state, be it health, wealth or some other aspect of our being, is actively altered to achieve a new state of being. It is this third point, the apex of the triangle is the resultant of actions taken that is to be contemplated in this message.
Once a goal has been achieved it is easy, and at times useful, to sit back and “soak it in”. It could be because the resultant took a lot of energy, being the culmination of several smaller, fractal triangles necessary to reach to chosen destination. But soon enough, there returns the desire to seek further change. Most people in the current workforce know that to be static is to fall behind, as the times are continuously changing and we do not have the luxury to stay at one level for long. However, you now have a different perspective from which your world is viewed from - a new apex from which to look upon your life from. It is time to again apply the Law of the Triangle, for our nature as Rosicrucians is to seek the “Summum Bonnum” - the highest good.
What guides you to change an existing state? What prompts you to get from point A to point B? How do you get there? And how do you know which point B is the best for you? That is where we turn to the Master WIthin. Everybody’s desire is to be the master of their destiny. It is what we all want, to rise up Maslow’s Heirarchy of Needs to get beyond our basic survival, and strive towards self-actualization. The masters know that this is done by turning within.
As you feel the urge to look upon your life from the results of past changes, or triangles, make the first action you take be to seek guidance from the Master Within. Go into your sanctum. Concentrate. Contemplate. Meditate. Allow your Higher Self to guide you towards the changes that will best serve your evolution for the next year. Allow the path to become visible for how you will achieve those goals. See them manifest in your mind’s eye. Feel the profound sense of peace that surrounds you as you open yourself to the Master Within’s guidance for your new goals, your new resolutions.
May Peace Be With You,
