That there is such a thing as electricity, that it probably accounts for all that can be seen, sensed and known, and that the entire universe is a manifestation of electrical power, - all this may be stated and is, today, coming to be recognized. But when that has been said, the mystery remains, and will not be revealed, even in partial measure, until the middle of the next century. Then revelation may be possible, as there will be more initiates in the world, and inner vision and inner hearing will be more generally recognized and present. When man arrives at a better understanding of the etheric body and its seven force centers (which are all related to the seven rays, and in their expression show the seven characteristics and techniques which are here tabulated anent the rays) then some further light can intelligibly be thrown upon the nature of the seven types of electrical phenomena which we call the seven rays.

On the Path of Return and in connection with the process of detachment, which marks the progress of the soul towards release and the ending of the period of appropriation, certain passages in A Treatise on White Magic give clearly the intended [84] technique. They are as follows, and are found on pages 288 and 289.

Ray One - "Let the Forces come together. Let them mount to the High Place, and from that lofty eminence, let the soul look out upon a world destroyed. Then let the word go forth: 'I still persist!'"

Ray Two - "Let all the life be drawn to the Center, and enter thus into the heart of Love Divine. Then from that point of sentient Life, let the soul realize the consciousness of God. Let the word go forth, reverberating through the silence: 'Naught is but Me!'"

Ray Three - "Let the army of the Lord, responsive to the word, cease their activities. Let knowledge end in wisdom. Let the point vibrating become the point quiescent, and all lines gather into One. Let the soul realize the One in Many, and let the word go forth in perfect understanding: 'I am the Worker and the Work, the One that Is.'"

Ray Four - "Let the outer glory pass away and the beauty of the inner Light reveal the One. Let dissonance give place to harmony, and from the center of the hidden Light, let the soul speak: Let the word roll forth: 'Beauty and glory veil Me not. I stand revealed. I am.'"

Ray Five - "Let the three forms of energy electric pass upward to the Place of Power. Let the forces of the head and heart and all the nether aspects blend. Then let the soul look out upon an inner world of light divine. Let the word triumphant go forth: 'I mastered energy for I am energy Itself. The Master and the mastered are but One.'"

Ray Six - "Let all desire cease. Let aspiration end. The search is over. Let the soul realize that it has reached the goal, and from that gateway to eternal Life and cosmic Peace, let the word sound: 'I am the seeker and the sought. I rest!'"

Ray Seven - "Let the builders cease their work. The Temple is completed. Let the soul enter into its heritage and from the Holy Place command all work to end. Then in the silence subsequent, let him chant forth the Word: 'The creative [85] work is over. I, the Creator, Am. Naught else remains but, Me.'
