Course IV - Teaching 1: The Voice of the Masters

Human beings do not find upon earth their wished peace and happiness. Only the detachment from transitory goods and achievement of the divine love can give peace and happiness to being.
The Sons shall attain the union with God through Cafh.
Symbolized as the Strong Woman grabbing and closing fauces of the lion, Cafh is the mean of the Sons to get self-control and achieve means for the Divine Union.
Cafh as mean of achievement is effort, psychical, mental and spiritual training of the Soul toward the Divinity, and at the same time infuse grace of the Divinity in the soul.
Any effort of the Son is useless if not assisted by divine help, and at a time, this help needs the effort of the Son to be fruitful in the soul and to become effective.
Divine help comes directly to the Son from God, as a pre-established result since the eternity in the Divine Plan of evolution.
Divine Union cannot be achieved without efforts of the Son and Divine Help, because the Mother Idea of the Aryan Race is based upon harmony of human and divine values.
The conquest of God is achieved by rational efforts and the divine illumination of the soul is attained by overcoming the very reason.
The name of God is expression of the fundamental principle of the Universe, of the Eternal Spirit fluttering behind any manifestation. God, Ruler of the Universe, enumerates by Himself different expressions of His power and will in the Plan of Universal Evolution.
Sometimes the Sons get used to worship and reverence in God His aspect as Creator of the Universe, in the female image of the Divine Mother.
The image of the Divine Mother is in Cafh the main point of attention and veneration as the living image of the work, power, love and omnipotence of God.
The Divine help has in the Son several different manifestations.
It comprises from a natural disposition of being to intervention of divine and human beings who directly or indirectly assist the Son trusted to them, in a providential way in due moment and by the most unexpected form.
Divine beings that take part in fulfilling the Cosmic Plan and intervene in the progress and assistance of mankind are incalculable numerous and with different hierarchies. All of them even intervene indirectly in the evolution of Mankind, because the Cosmos is just the result of the Unique Idea of God.
There are three categories that directly intervene in destinies of mankind. These divine, semi-divine and superior beings are called Great Initiates.
The first category is of Great Solar Initiates.
The second category is of Great Lunar Initiates.
The third category is of Great Initiates of Fire.
The Great Solar Initiates intervene in crucial destinies that change and transform different stages of the Race. They are bearers of the Mother Idea presented to Mankind divinely and plainly since the cradle of a race until its end, and they pervade this race with the power of this unique thought as the traced road of its own destiny.
The planet and men are pervaded by the grace and protection of the Divine Incarnation of the Great Solar Initiate. This Initiate, whom we call the Christ, has intervened directly on redemption and possibility of progress of present mankind.
Since a new race is about to begin, the Divine Incarnation again shall come to earth to renew and strengthen the work of the Christ. Eastern disciples call Maitreya to this Great Solar Initiate. Christ clearly announced on the Gospel his triumphal return to this world. The Great Lunar Initiates lead partial and various movements of different sectors of mankind. They are like a bridge between heaven and earth, between humanity and Divinity, because they are guides of great religions, philosophies, races, states and organizations.
They are the Mother Idea made flesh and the thought-destiny of Great Solar Initiates made form. At the propitious hour, from superior worlds they throw their idea to the heart of predestined men or these Initiates incarnate in certain magnetic field of mankind impelling it irresistibly toward the renewed creed, new axiom, promised land and liberating idea, and this way they make emerge conceptions of love and life.
All men of certain national, moral or religious area take part in the influence of the Great Lunar Initiate in regard to the development of the characteristic Work of their time and of related needs.
Great Initiates of Fire intervene and assist beings individually, help them to progress internally and make them fit to fulfill the work that they have to externalize and perform in the world.
But these Initiates, apparently unknown and hidden, are those who are closer to men. They guide advantageously the souls toward their inner development, knowledge of their personal vocation and efforts to achieve their destiny. Their labor is more individual than collective, for they guide individually the souls, in the multitude they call the fittest, choose the best and among them select the perfect, guiding them to their determined end.
The Sons of Cafh are especially and directly helped by the three categories of Great Initiates, calling them by the name of Holy Masters. In Cafh the Masters help and assist continuously the Sons to achieve in the world their mystical mission, which is the achievement of divine love in these Sons and, by reflection of similarity, in every man that is fit to it.
The voice of the Masters continuously comes to the heart and mind of the Sons to guide them on the Path.
The majority of the Masters that assist more directly in Cafh belong to the Great Initiates of Fire, intervene in any event on the life of the Son and sometimes in a visible and direct way.
Therefore the whole Work and the possibilities of Cafh steadily rely on the divine help of the Masters because without this help all efforts and works of the Son would be in vain. So Cafh is an exclusively divine Work, constituted by Divine Powers, with the only purpose of leading men to a Divine State.
The Masters of Cafh are the very expression of God; they are intermediaries between men and Divinity, the Primary point of Creation worshipped by the Sons in the image of the Divine Mother.
