The Inner Life

THE HERALD OF THE NEW AGE | FEBRUARY 1935

BEFORE TWO CAN MEET, BOTH MUST APPROACH A THIRD.

Before MY Sun can give Light to MY Moon, both must be transmuted to transformed in the Earth. For that reason the Sun Goddess and the Moon Gods are descended to Earth, The Third, to partake of MY Uniting Principle, LOVE.

To establish MYSELF and to raise the Moon Gods from the dead, I now operate in the Law of Repulsion and Give of MY Light to the Moon Gods, MY other half.

It is MY Will to equalize these two poles of MYSELF on this concrete plane, by which process the New Circle will be built and finally reduced to a Focal Point in MY Kingdom—the Heart of Earth.

I AM Love, I AM Peace, I AM the Spirit in Earth, the Transmuter, the Transformer, the Uniter. But I must transmute before I can transform; therefore I Give You the Key to the Golden Gate.

You Who are ready will unlock IT and admit ME: For I AM YOU!! —E. J. B.

THE CLOD AND THE PEBBLE

“Love seeketh not itself to please,
Nor for itself hath any care,
But for another gives its ease,
And builds a heaven in hell’s despair.”

So said a little clod of clay,
Trodden with the cattle’s feet.
But a pebble of the brook
Warbled out these metres meet:

“Love seeketh only Self to please,
To bind another to its delight,
Joys in another’s loss of ease,
And builds a hell in heaven’s despite.”
—William Blake.
