The MasTer responds To seeker InquIrIes 131

2 . Q. I have heard you speak of illumination, enlighten-
ment, and an expansion of consciousness, and I am curious
to know how these higher levels are achieved. does it just
involve study of your books and recordings, like in col-
lege, or do you simply wake up in the morning and find
these greater truths suddenly present? or maybe dreams
or visions play a part? I’m just not sure, so could you ex-
plain further?

A. Thank you, and I certainly get the drift of your
questions. You have actually answered your own inquiry,
because you have unknowingly just expressed the four
mediums that are used to transfer this higher conscious-
ness to the individual student. Contemplation of the light
and sound doctrine, spontaneous revelations, dreams,
and visions are the primary modalities used to infuse and
impregnate our own human consciousness with this all-
encompassing sound Current. I use the words “medium”
and “modality” to describe these practices, for without the
sound Current that flows through these passageways, these
very same practices would be nothing other than empty
shells lacking the true kernel. This is the essential differ-
ence between the light and sound approach and other
endeavors, that is, the essence of the sound Current versus
the essence of the universal mind power. all techniques
are for the mind, whether prayer, meditation, or contem-
plation, and in the majority of cases, only the universal
mind power is invoked. When an initiate of the light and
sound employs these same practices or techniques, it is the
sound Current that rushes through rather than the univer-
sal mind power, and the difference in results is dramatic and
life changing.
