The Inner Life

THE HERALD OF THE NEW AGE | DECEMBER 1936

Then during that time every man who makes the righthand turn will have come into the consciousness of his true self, in other words, will have become polarized to the Father within himself. In this article we intend to show just what that means, and to make it so plain that all can understand.

First, try to understand that the King’s Chamber symbolizes the soul consciousness. Your soul consciousness is your true consciousness—not that of your outer mind. It is that consciousness from which You, the King, a soul, within Your Kingdom, rule, direct and teach the outer mind, Your child, and are responsible for all its thoughts, Your subjects.

The King’s Chamber is then your inner or soul consciousness and is likewise the soul consciousness of all humanity. Those who consciously enter the King’s Chamber will be those who are able consciously and at will to retire from the outer mind consciousness into their soul consciousness. That ability comes, of course, only through soul growth or spiritual unfoldment and understanding—evidenced by how much Love rules and controls the soul.

You will note that in the first paragraph above—in the first part—we speak of the outer man, and in the second paragraph above, of the inner man or soul. All souls have now entered the King’s Chamber or state of consciousness where as souls they are released from all outer restraining influences. As souls they are now free to express their true nature—or those qualities that now rule in their consciousness. If love and goodness rule in the soul consciousness, so will those qualities manifest in the outer self. If selfishness and evil rule, such must express fully in the outer life. But with both, the true nature of their souls—the ruling qualities of both—will express without restraint or limitation by outer conditions; the only power that can restrain or limit them will be the Power of Spirit or Divine Love, should It be a part of the consciousness.

In other words, the soul or real self of every man will now begin to show forth in the outer world with all of its predominant qualities freely and naturally expressing themselves. Therefore, everyone may expect those qualities to be brought to the surface of his or her nature, and many will be amazed to see the ugly qualities that appear and violently attempt to rule and which they thought had long since been mastered.
