Course IV - Teaching 12: Heavenly Stars

Heavenly Stars of liberated souls mark stages of realization on the firmament of Cafh.
The soul is ruled by unavoidable eternal laws. The secret of deification is unveiled by the identification of the individual soul with the cosmic consciousness.
The solution of the divine theorem is of unsuspected simplicity: “You” and “He”; “He” and “You”. It is easy to understand, but difficult to be.
Realization has to be reached just in stages, and the reason of if is a mystery that the mind was never able to unravel.
Stages are ever fundamentally the same for the soul, even if are characterized and determined according to the type of being, race to which he belongs and climate of the latitude where he stays.
Also these diverse stages are both general and individual at the same time.
The Reunion of Cafh’s souls passes through specific useful stages for the progress of the Son belonging to Cafh and for the fulfillment and achievement of the Great Work.
The mystical names of these ascending stages are:
HES: Mother Idea;
IRED: Divine Voice;
FOA: Power of Love;
IHES: Hypostatic Redemption;
CAFH: Mystical Body;
AHEIA: Spiritual Illumination; and
THE SOUL: by its own name: Deifying Union.
The soul that raises the eyes to its inner heaven shall see that the first star guiding the course of the path is the Divine Mother Hes.
Since the eternity She knows the name and number of beings predestined to Cafh. From higher worlds the souls that have to achieve their liberation on Cafh’s path are marked.
Unavoidably, wherever the soul is, it shall be led to its glorious destiny. Seemingly this predestination is a blind destiny that chooses the ones and disposes of the others but it is not like that if from the consideration of time reason raises to the vision of the permanent duration.
This predestination only counts for the moment, since meanwhile new souls become fit to the same end, and other souls start their way to become fit.
If Cafh’s souls are divinely predestined, by remaining humanly as a mystery this sugn grants to every soul the possibility of coming close to the Great Current. Those souls that come close to it shall ever have possibilities of predestination.
The other Heavenly Star shining on the firmament of the souls is the guiding necessary star for the ascending way of the soul.
Cafh’s Masters guide the souls by means of Superiors, Orators and Spiritual Directors. The number of Masters is unknown on earth; one can say only one thing, it is divided into mystical groups that transmit the Ired to the souls from higher worlds.
On the astral world there are groups of Masters in more direct contact with the Sons, and their number is divided into one and forty two. The number one is composed of an Initiate of Fire or a Lunar Initiate. They assimilate the Mother Idea by intense concentration and great love, and Ired becomes Divine Voice by acquiring its own life.
The Mother Idea synthesized in Cafh is: Evil is external, personal, and multiplicity by itself; it is a composite wanting to dissociate from what is simple and to have its own life, but this is impossible, moves away from what is real and creates infinite phantasmagorias.
To come back to his pristine state of simplicity and unity the soul has to become egocentric, to live in itself and by itself, by continuously exalting the inner life.
“Egoentia” is not super-personality but to become pure nothing for the identification with the Universal Consciousness of the Divine Mother.
The entirely internal realization of the soul is the daily effort to become similar to Her like a drop of water and the spring.
The stage in which the Ired of Cafh descends to the soul is the stage that permits the descent of the Divine Mother into the heart of the Son.
The Divine Voice of Ired incarnates in the Sons by the Force of Love of the Divine Mother for Foa.
From Higher Worlds, the Masters take the Mother Idea and give it spiritual life. They make of it the Ired, that is the Word, the Message of the Mother, the Divine Voice, and the Ired incarnates in the Son by the Force of Love of Foa, which is the Force of Love of the Divine Mother.
The heart of the Son is Her abode in spiritual and material sense. This divine incarnation makes possible that the soul lives its inner life not going out of it, and that it may keep its “egoentia” being a pure nothing by itself and a whole with Her. So the Son can control and fix the stability, and this fixation is not immobility or inertia but a source of every activity, not by itself but through Her.
The Mother Idea fixed in the soul indissolubly joins to it by divine rhythm. This is the fundamental element of the simplicity that continuously oscillates in itself, by converting into mind and mind into matter, and rejecting the human rhythm of imitation, dissolution and multiplicity.
The Divine Mother is the measure of man. Man is simply nothing, but She is all. He is not a human nothing dissolved in an eternal nothing, but a human nothing living in the divine, eternal measure.
Fixation, rhythm and measure develop the inner process of the soul of Cafh.
The power of Foa’s love, the grace of the Incarnated Mother Idea in the Son, is the solution to the eternal problem, the bridge built between heaven and earth, and between the soul and God.
The Divine Voice incarnated in the Son, established in him takes his flesh and his blood. The Son is a living receptacle that wraps and breaths the Divine Word by transforming it and transforming himself in it. Only this mystery of love makes Redemption possible and gives place to the birth of the Divinity, Ihes, in the soul of the Son.
Too many burdens overwhelm the soul and its aspirations never could go beyond a good wish if the soul were not redeemed by the humanized divinity.
The divinity limits itself so that the soul may be free. By the divine contact, the Son gradually surrenders without reserves and finally nothing remains of this humanity. He shall not live but the Divine Mother shall live in him.
The Son shall be redeemed, and by this redemption he shall become co-redeemer of mankind. His whole being, his whole blood shall be immolated by renunciation to save all, but at the same time the divine life and eternal blood shall live again in him. From human man he will become divine man through redemption.
The Son lives in the work only through Cafh.
Labor, work, everything is nothing for him. All this has a value only when he sees it through the eyes of Cafh, which is the visible expression of the Divine Mother in the World. External, multiple and changing things are dust and dregs by themselves; but all this seen through Cafh as the result of the divine manifestation acquires an extraordinary, vital importance.
The Sons are nothing but not abandoned to the nothing. Their nothing is a simple egocentric power that does not admit any composite for itself, but is continuously and productively active. The inner potential rhythm making of mind matter and of matter mind annihilates the activity in itself. God is in Himself deep and inscrutable silence, but manifests in the world as an uninterrupted action. The Son remains in his silence and peace but works outside without silence and peace.
As the Son goes out and expands around for the benefit of other beings, the inner redemption leads him to the Spiritual Enlightenment.
He finds continuously in the redeemed souls that which is in him. He shall find in every soul the Divine Mother that is in him. Hes and Aheia are one.
This stage leads the Son to the summit and grants to him the spiritual enlightenment; he can watch as an eagle over mankind and reflect his light on all souls.
He has attained the final stage.
He can become a Heavenly Star, a liberated soul.
The Egyptian Book of the Dead reads, “He cannot die again. A star on the sky shall be granted to him and he shall be stable like the hours of Eternity”.
Now he can know who is he and can be identified by his spiritual name. The soul shall not be again composed or subject to combinations of life and death, but shall be simply deified by the Union of the Divine Consciousness.
