Awakening the Higher Mind and Intuition Through the use of Symbols
Presented by Duane Carpenter
The primary objective of this series of webinars is to awaken the higher mind and the intuition and not necessarily to impart large volumes of information however important as a foundational base. Information is only useful if it eventually leads the student to an expansion of consciousness or changes in the inner sheaths or bodies. We must see the occult path and all of its allied information as a synthesis and how the isolated parts can be brought together into a more organic whole.

Duane has a new Awakening the Higher Mind and Intuition facebook group for questions and sharing experiences that create a bridge between his webinars.  Group work takes on a life of its own through the group mind, group will, and group heart; and this helps build highways between the group and the Masters to facilitate the One Work and to bring these abstract ideas down into a concrete presentation.

Awakening the Higher Mind 13, presented by Duane Carpenter, held on Mar 23, 2019. Duane discussed the 6-fold Ray Charts of individuals, and the associations of the predominant colors of the different rays. Many of us know (or suspect) what are Soul and Personality Rays are, but only a few have an idea of what their Monadic Ray might be. Even if we have a good understanding of our 6-fold rays, each of the vehicles will have a sub-ray, so it can complicate the sub-tone or sub-color of our ray make up. Another factor Duane discussed is that as you become more and more integrated, the rays begin to overlap and blend in your ray chart. They are basically spherical in nature, nesting within each other. There are electrical forces that form discreate bands but as we evolve and radiate more and more, they leap to the next octave. He demonstrated this with an image of the 6-fold spherical chart, blended and blurred, taking on a new look, synthesized together. He also discussed the different points of light within a soul group, ashram, or Ray Ashram and how multitudes of egoic groups form interlocking, radiant yet diverse groups. All members of the human family are grouped according to their rhythm, quality, light, magnetic influence, radiation, and activity. And just as the Master can tell the status of a disciple by viewing his rayological constitution, so can the Planetary Logos tell the status of the various Ray Ashrams and groups who are accomplishing his Divine Plan.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 110, reading no. 50. Michael reviewed an important statement regarding the primary cause of glamour being the sense of duality, and the difficulties we face through our misidentification as our bodies. Disillusionment is the release from glamour. We are in the process of developing unitive consciousness. This perception of the dual nature of all manifestation lies at the very root of all troubles humanity faces. This problem of consciousness creates our wrong perception and interpretation, leading to the misidentification whereby we are engulfed, deluded and imprisoned until we recognize the situation. Our emotions support unrealities. We are the story of the Prodigal Son. We then proceeded into the stages of extricating ourselves from glamour. The first stage occurs when the material world is recognized and realized—the glamour of materialism. This stage has two parts: first is the satisfaction of the physical instincts of the individualized man; and second concerns the pleasures of material possessions. The Tibetan has a wonderful coloristic description of the ascent of man, found in Discipleship of the New Age, Vol, I, p. 674, called The Sublimation of the Five Human Stages. The first two stages were discussed. The colors tell us where we stand. The meditation itself was on the glamour of hatred. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 29, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 109, reading no. 49. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 92-95. Completing the Section: Dweller on the Threshold the webinar began with a review of the most common rays for the physical, astral and mental vehicles found in humanity at this time, noting those exceptions found for a few of Master DK’s disciples in DINA Volumes I and II and some of the reasons DK noted the exceptions for particular disciples. If your rays are different from those noted as most common, then you may be an accepted disciple. Accepted discipleship is attained when you have a direct contact with the master. How has this been revealed? The group then considered a set of questions on page 93 each considered silently and followed by Michael’s comments: 1) When the intuition is developed, the impact or “straight knowledge” is seen and all is locked into step establishing a unity of all factors which dawns upon the consciousness. 2) Working with the Technique of Light reveals the glamours that are hiding the Light. The beam of Light eventually becomes the horn of the Unicorn. 3) The veils of the etheric plane are the forces or impulsions driving the human being until he can control the energies. Inspiration is a rhythmic breathing of divinity, breathing in the higher energies and releasing them, the rhythm works in cycles and impulses that are regulated. The 7th ray rhythmic breathing is very important in our efforts to not succumb to the chaos of maya. The rhythmic and ordered life helps restore our own energy system rather than being driven by chaotic impulse. The group continued with consideration of a new section – Causes of Glamour, Section Two: The racial and individual causes of glamour. Familiarity leads to the inability to see the distortions in which we are living for both maya and illusion as well as glamour. Illusions, misunderstandings and misinterpretations continue until emotional unity is achieved on the way to the experience of Oneness which is found in monadic awareness. The discontinuity, disillusionment, distortions are dispelled through the use of the intuition. Unsentimental love / Love-wisdom prevents the appearance of distortions and disillusionment. As occultists in training with detachment, we overcome illusions and actually achieve Disillusionment as Master DK uses the term, as the key to the release from glamour. The fundamental cause of glamour is the sense of duality. Unity is achieved in contemplation and the heart centre is involved, allowing the fusion of the subject and the object. Oneness goes even deeper though. Yet words are used loosely and we must take care not to further our misunderstandings. We on this planet are adjudicators; we always must reconcile the dualities, the great mistake of misperception, through contemplative meditation. Our very perceptions are rooted in our dweller in the body, in duality, incorrectly perceiving, wrongly seeing the phenomena that engulf and delude, causing restlessness and unhappiness. Do we actually know this experientially? Self-knowledge is the first step and leads us through a long period of untangling before glamour can be overcome. The webinar closed with the Formula for the Dissipation of the glamour of selfishness. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 22, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 108, reading no. 48. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 90-92. This new section begins a discussion on the Dweller on the Threshold. The number 108 is significant in several ways. Not all of us are currently fighting with the real Dweller, as it is faced by the third degree initiate. This is the Dweller standing open-eyed before the gate facing the Angel. Being ‘open-eyed’ involves being fully self-aware. There are several very good definitions provided for this aspect of our evolving Self. The Dweller is everything we are before real illumination, inspiration, and initiation (soul infusion), and is extremely potent. From the form side, the Dweller on the Threshold embodies many good and useful things, when properly directed. We are learning to subordinate the Third Aspect to the Second Aspect of divinity. We are just at the stage or recognizing what is the dweller in our nature, so that we can strive to resolve the pairs of opposites on the physical, emotional, and mental planes. Each of these pairs of opposites occur on different paths—purification, discipleship, and initiation. On which path are our struggles or crises occurring? In studying our rays, it is important to look at the effect we have on other people. The meditation itself was on the glamour of self-assured narrow-mindedness. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 15, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 107, reading no. 47. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 88-90. This reading completes the section on Maya. Michael reviewed the last paragraph of last week’s reading. Transmutation has to do with the physical nature, transformation with the emotional nature, and transfiguration with the mental nature. Also, Ray 1 relates to destruction, Ray 2 to purification, and Ray 3 to organization. In World War I, the conflict that was fought concerned the physical/etheric nature, and was a tremendous test and discipline. Due to this conflict, many humans entered the Probationary Path. It brought out discipline, aspiration, and a higher sense of values. Something of the fifth kingdom of nature was coming through. The effects were important in devitalizing the world maya. Interestingly, wars have been expiating (releasing and then negating) experiences for humanity. Focusing on physical disciplines and training is related to this Path, as is purification. One of the first steps in handling maya is physical coordination which, as a “right activity” on the Path of Return, also includes astral orientation, mental direction, and personality alignment. The Tibetan points to the value of memorization. The meditation itself was on the glamour of self-importance. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 8, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 106, reading no. 46. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 85-88. Michael suggests continuing study every day, at least for an hour. The glamour of egotism is one of the most difficult and is based on mistaken identity, and a mistaken self-glorification. Maya is largely an etheric condition in a battle of the pairs of opposites. There are many levels of these pairs of opposites. Michael showed, on the chart of the Egoic Lotus and the Centers, how pairs of opposites may be observed. The Tibetan considers the etheric body as the true physical, while the dense body is an automaton. Latent impulses of the personality life (not under soul control) are blended with pranic fluids, becoming potent streams of force emerging through the chakras into manifestation. We draw in the general environing prana until there is definite direction and higher control. Note that there are five types of prana. Etheric energy passes through two stages prior to the period of discipleship. Stage One blends the latent force of matter with etheric energy through physical discipline. Stage Two is the battle of the lower pairs of opposites, as one reorients towards higher values, expresses as the conflict between the vital force and the dense physical body, and is fought out in the astral nature. The meditation itself was on the glamour of egotism and self-importance. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 1, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 105, reading no. 45. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 84-85. Michael began the section “Glamour upon Etheric Levels…Maya”. Maya is also called “that unthinking emotional mess” and “the veil of impulsion”. An “old commentary” piece from Esoteric Astrology, page 20, describes that “mess” and indicates a means for its overcoming. Maya is only experienced when one has entered the spiritual Path, and is especially pertinent to the first degree. During the early stages of human evolution, it is not possible to recognize it. The forces against which we are struggling are extremely ancient, and are predominately a difficulty of the etheric body. These mayavic forces are the uncontrolled energies and undirected impulses emanating from the world of prana and the latent force of matter. One is helpless when swept into its wrong activity and a whirlpool of effects and conditions. We see this in mass consciousness, the maya of the crowd. We are being deceived about the nature of Reality due to Maya, Glamour, and Illusion. Our means to freedom is the Intuition (dispelling illusion), Illumination (dissipating glamour), and Inspiration (dispersing maya). The meditation itself was on the glamour of narcissism (and its expressions of self-love, self-obsession, lower egoism and egotism). The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on February 22, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 104, reading no. 44. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 81-84. Intuition is latent in the Spiritual Triad, and is found on the fourth subplane of the Buddhic plane. It expresses as pure reason and straight knowledge. For an initiate, the intuition is as normally active as the mind of an actively intelligent person. It is also called the Transcendental Mind. Criticism, separativeness or pride, suspicion, and self-pity are definite breeders of glamour. Freeing oneself from these three characteristics shows one is well on the way to the dissipation of all glamour. Glamour keeps one from seeing things in right proportion. Illusion is dispelled through the conscious use of the intuition, thereby coming in touch with Reality in all forms. Disidentification is a way to find this reality. The right kind of insulation and isolation (Isolated Unity) leads to right contact and relationship with the Real. We must deal with the problem of glamour through analysis, discrimination, and right thought. The meditation itself was on the glamour of personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on February 15, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 103, reading no. 43. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 80-81. This reading completed the fifth of the five glamours holding humanity in prison—that of the Path. We can learn the nature of these glamours by studying the three temptations faced by Jesus (or the Christ): the world, the flesh, and the devil. The glamours are all based on misidentification with the form, and are displayed through a number of self-expressions. We are reminded that suspicion, self-pity, and criticism (that dire producer of misery) are major causes of glamour. The battles that disciples face are primarily of glamour. Illumination can be achieved through Raja Yoga. With this light and vision, the fogs and miasmas of glamour is dissipated. We must remember that “glamour is not dissipated through the means of the intuition nor is illusion overcome by the use of the illumined mind”. The meditation itself was on the glamour of war. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on February 8, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 102, reading no. 42. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 79-80. This reading focused on the fourth of five glamours holding humanity in prison—that of the pairs of opposites. The reference to the “middle way” is to the vertical path (Libra) which is always rising as the point of tension continues to rise. The astral body is prominent due to our living in an astral-buddhic solar system, and so affects all. As we travel along this path, we must realize that our emotional “ups and downs” are not of the soul at all. On the “mystical path”, one may be held by this particular glamour for many years, or even lives. When speaking of the “polarized mind”, it relates to a period between the second and third degrees. It is also important to realize that the triplicity of the three aspects of divinity—spirit, soul, and body—are all equally divine, all the product of BEING. The meditation itself was on the general engulfing glamour. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on February 1, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 101, reading no. 41. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 77-79. The focus of this reading was on the third of five glamours holding humanity in prison—that of devotion. This is especially powerful in the lives of probationary disciples and those with Ray 6 souls, personalities, or emotional natures. This is due to the long Ray 6 cycle now completing, as well as the ending Piscean cycles—a double reinforcement. We are told to ponder on our devotion to causes, teachers, creeds, persons, duties, and/or responsibilities. It becomes harmful when it swings one into the rhythm of the world glamour, which is a fog of desire (which initially may appear quite beautiful). This type of devotional glamour can be particularly difficult, commencing a long imprisonment. One way to overcome this glamour is by contacting the greater Self through the higher Self, thus losing sight of the lower self. The meditation itself was on the glamour of devotion. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on January 25, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 100, reading no. 40. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 76-77. Michael discussed the second of the five glamours holding humanity in prison, being that of sentiment. This expresses as an emotional reaction, creating a sentimental understanding of the nature of love. For most people, love is a mixture of the desire to love and to be loved. Through sentiment, one seeks comfort in the interior life. Few there are that truly know the nature of love, particularly in family relationships. Affection is an astral reaction and not love. One definition for love is “the spontaneous desirelessness of the soul which asks nothing for the separated self”. The true lover must be very alert to the needs of the other. Michael read the definition for sentiment found on page 209 of The Rays and The Initiations. The meditation itself was on the glamour of personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on January 18, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 99, reading no. 39. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 74-76. Michael began discussing the first of the five glamours holding humanity in prison. The first is the glamour of materiality. It causes all of the present world distress, particularly with so much of the glamour having an economic basis. It is a problem of a dull perception, leading one to grasp at false treasures and values. We must learn to understand what is truly of value—that found within the soul. We must also keep in mind that not all types of possessions suit all people, as this relates to one’s place on the evolutionary ladder. The desire nature of humanity is changing as new standards for values are realized. Freedom from this glamour results in the liberation to live the life of the mind. The meditation itself was on the glamour of materialism. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on January 11, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 98, reading no. 38. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 72-73. Michael discussed the second, third, and fourth recognitions that one must understand when working with glamour. The second concerns the fog enveloping humanity is a definite substantial thing, although the astral forms created are less clearly defined than those created in mental substance. Generally undetectable by most people, the astral forms are described as smothering, vague, enveloping, submerging and swaying. The third recognition is that the great energetic potency of glamour is due to a) it’s an ancient rhythm inherent in astral substance that has been created by human desire; b) it’s part of the human energy system that is part of life processes; c) it is Atlantean in nature and consciousness, being highly developed during that period, and can only be dissipated by the fifth root-race through the technique of 1) standing in spiritual being and 2) keeping the mind steady in the light. The fourth recognition is that the major glamours holding humanity in the prison of form are those of materiality, sentiment, devotion, the pairs of opposites, and the Path. These will be more fully described in a future meeting. The meditation itself was on the glamour of selfishness. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on December 14, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 97, reading no. 37. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 70-72. The Astral Plane is the major area of distortions in which humanity lives. Michael began discussing the four recognitions that must be understood by those working with glamour. The first being the world of glamours in which each human being is engulfed results from a) past wrong thinking, selfish desires, and misunderstanding the purposes of life; b) the past and present family “desire life” that shows inherited and/or demonstrated psychological tendencies; c) the totality of national desire life and illusions, showing the national characteristics and psychological traits; and d) the ancient glamours of the human race, including entrenched desires, potent aspirations, and kama-manasic forms such as money with only materialistic value. The meditation itself was on the glamour of lying. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on December 7, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 96, reading no. 36. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 69-70. Michael began reading the section specific to glamour on the astral plane. Sometimes illusion, glamour, and maya are used in a general sense, with each referring to the totality of distortions on the lower eighteen subplanes. In this period, humanity is primarily affected by emotional glamour. Michael suggests that the accepted discovery of Vulcan will facilitate release from glamour. Accepted disciples battle with both glamour and illusion. As we move into this phase of our training, are we strong enough to deal with both distortions? Both Mercury and Saturn play a role in this. Integration of personality and soul energies is consummated significantly at the third degree. Take note about what our “best self” might be. Discrimination is a psychic power found on the fourth level of the mental plane. What choice of a life theme is appropriate for this incarnation? Be aware of the choice(s) we have made. The astral body of the planet is a murky ball of seeming steam, mist, and fog. The meditation itself was on the glamour of selfishness. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on November 30, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 95, reading no. 35. Reading was from Glamour: A World Problem pages 67-68. Michael reminded us that we need to work on dissipating our own personal glamours. This reading ends the section in the book on illusion. Contemplation dispels illusion as we slip into the soul’s meditation. There are three major divisions of the meditation process to address the distortions of reality: concentration by the Aspirant relates to devitalizing maya (ruled by Leo), meditation by the Disciple relates to dissipating glamour (ruled by Virgo), and contemplation by the Initiate relates to dispelling illusion (ruled by Libra). The state of contemplation is largely unreachable for most of us. Libra is the sign of humility (an adjusted sense of right proportion) and contemplation. Our major problem is glamour rather than illusion. As we develop our minds, we must distinguish between mental focus and mental polarization. To be most effective in our work of helping humanity, we must carefully assess our motives – are they for the separated personality, or for the larger group – humanity itself. The meditation itself was on the glamour of selfish combat for the sake of personal advantage. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on November 16, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 94, reading no. 34. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 65-67. Michael stated that we are not entirely free from glamour and illusion until we take the 9th initiation and are free of the cosmic physical plane. Following a brief alignment, Michael discussed how the intuition is increasingly necessary in the dispelling of illusion. It is the intuition that dispels illusion (Technique of the Presence), the illumined mind that dissipates glamour (Technique of Light), and the right use of the breath that devitalizes maya (Technique of Indifference). The concrete mind is not enough to do this work. This indicates the need for building the antahkarana in order to access the intuition. Note how the transcendental mind, being the intuition (or pure realization), is governed by the higher part of Mercury. Michael discussed the relationships between Mercury, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The opposite pole of illusion is the intuition – the recognition of reality that becomes possible as glamour and illusion disappear. The mind reflects the soul on the higher mental plane and the astral body reflects the intuition on the buddhic plane. We bring in buddhic impression through the use of Raja Yoga, stillness, and non-activity of the mind in a way that will reveal something closer to pure truth. The meditation itself was on the glamour of rulership, of dictatorship, and of wide control. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on Nov 9, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 93, reading no. 33. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 63-66. Michael began discussing the wrong embodiment of ideas; this is illusion through wrong discrimination where substance is concerned.  The cause is lack of esoteric training in creative activity and the cure is application of 5th ray methods, which are highly discriminative methods of the mental plane.   Michael also discussed wrong application of ideas, where a disciple might contact an idea intuitively, but the full impression has not fully worked through the mind.  This can sweep the disciple into wrong activity and wrong application of ideas.  The meditation itself was on the glamour of blatant lying and manipulation. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on Nov 2, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 92, reading no. 32. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 62-63. Michael discussed the 4th and 5thways that illusion demonstrates, through wrong direction of ideas (introducing an idea into a context in which it does not belong) and wrong integration of an idea (contacting ideas that do not integrate into our personal field of service). In the first case, there might be some value to the ideas, but when they are misapplied, presented incorrectly or in the wrong context, illusion is strengthened.  The cause is a small and non-inclusive mind, and its cure is the training of the mind to be inclusive, well-stocked and well-developed.  In the second case, overzealousness and over-activity of the mind cause the person to seize upon an idea and try and work with, even if they don’t have the aptitude or understanding to do so.  Not all ideas contacted will fit in with the person’s field of service, and they need to discern which are appropriate and which are not.  Many good disciples demonstrate this over-zealousness and end up with no constructive objectives because they reach for too many that are inappropriate for their designated work and cannot be integrated into their life program.  This is illusion through acquisitiveness and its cause is selfishly grasping for the little self; the cure is a humble spirit.  The meditation itself was on the glamour of lying and everything that prevents truth from manifesting. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on October 26, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 91, reading no. 31. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 60-62. Michael quickly reviewed the first two of seven ways in which illusion usually demonstrates. The focus of this webinar was the third way, which is through wrong appropriation of ideas. All the problems of the world consist in the words “me” and “mine”. Taking ownership of ideas is an unjustified action of the personality. The “my” part becomes more important than the idea itself. This lower Leo phase of development needs the corrective action of Libra. The cause of this illusion is an over-estimation of personality upon the sensed idea and undue impress of personality reactions upon the sensed idea and upon all who attempt to contact the same idea. The cure for this illusion is a steady attempt to decentralize the life from the personality, and to center it in the soul which is non-possessive and group conscious. Consider the effects in one’s life of discipline, dispassion, discrimination, decentralization, detachment, and discernment. This was followed by a general summary of the first three ways in which illusion usually demonstrates. Intuition is also called the “transcendental mind”. The meditation itself was on the glamour of the divine right of kings and of leaders. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on October 19, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 90. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 59-60.  Michael began reviewing the first illusion, wrong perception of an idea and reiterating the great heresy of separateness, or the inability to perceive the unity of things.  A separative consciousness does not act in the interest of the whole.  Then he began discussing the second of the seven ways that illusion demonstrates:  wrong interpretation of a presented idea.  When our mental equipment is inadequate, and we are not able to hold the mind steady in the Light of the Soul, we receive only partial views of reality. The cause of this illusion is the over-estimation of one’s mental powers, resulting in a prideful attitude toward one’s mind. This condition may be especially prominent in ray types three and five. The cure for this illusion is developing a cautious spirit; Saturn and Ray 3 are helpful,  with true humility, balance, and an adjusted sense of right proportion.  We paused in meditation to consider our own status, to reflect on whether we indulged in overinflated mental pride (or undervalued one) and whether or not we were developing that cautious spirit.  He pointed out that the humble spirit expressed itself in our ability to talk to others and help them understand esoteric concepts.  Michael also pointed out the list of virtues and vices of the rays found in Esoteric Psychology Vol I beginning on page 200.  Then he answered several questions, including one on how to distinguish between an idea, a law, and a principle.  A Law is always true and is a formulated, sustained will of a great being; the law protects the archetype of the being.  A principle is an aspect of that being; A Treatise on Cosmic Fire, beginning on p259 lists all the principles from different levels of consciousness and explains the different ways of looking at these principles depending on our conscious status or point of view.  Another question was on the distinction between an idea, ideal, and thoughtform.  Ideas are archetypes that need to be manifested on the lower planes, and they come from the buddhic plane or higher.  Ideals are formed in the concrete mind and astral vehicle, and they give form to the perceived idea.  Thoughtforms are forms, but are abstract, leaving out the details, and are formed on the higher mental plane, so they still need to be brought down into the concrete mind and the 18 lower sub-planes.  In other words, the intuition perceives the idea, clothes it in abstract thought, and then in concrete form.  The meditation was on the glamor of the personality and things that prevent true perception of reality, like self-importance.  The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on 12 October 2018.   The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 89, reading no. 29. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 57-59. Michael began by reviewing a few of the points covered in the previous reading. The current reading begins the seven ways in which illusion usually demonstrates, which are not necessarily related to the seven rays. We reviewed a definition of “ideas”, as they come from the cosmic ethers demonstrating as archetypes, and not just from the buddhic plane. We all dwell in an atmosphere of illusion. We studied in depth the first of the seven ways that illusion demonstrates, that of wrong perceptions of ideas. We pondered upon the difference between an idea and an ideal. The cause of wrong perception is an untrained and unillumined mind. The cure for this condition is training in the technique of Raja Yoga. There are four books that the Tibetan strongly recommends be a part of a disciple’s library and study. The meditation itself was on the glamour of personalism. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on October 5, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 88. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 53-57. Michael began discussing Illusion (glamor on the mental plane).  We don’t meet illusion (and can’t therefore overcome it) until we become the thinker.  The man must be focused consciously on the mental plane (generally, people are not yet mentally focused); working with intelligent, heart-felt service; able to make soul alignment easily; and have taken the first initiation, when it becomes possible for the mind to be held steadily in the Light.  True ideas come forth from the Buddhic plane, formless impressions until the higher mind interprets them and clothes them in mental substance.  This is where distortion comes in, especially for beginners, and ideas are misinterpreted as they are processed from the soul to the brain.  They can be built with inferior material from an inadequate mind, or colored through the ray types of the vehicles of expression (soul, mental, or physical brain), creating illusion and distortion of the pure idea by the qualifying equipment of the interpreter.  DK tells us that illusion, for our purposes, can be understood to signify the reaction of the undisciplined mind to the newly contacted world of ideas.  The mind of man becomes aware of this new and undiscovered world of ideas and he seizes upon some idea and tries to make it his own.   But his mind is still self-centered and the contact feeble, so the ideas are only dimly sensed.  Thinking the experience is unique or that he’s contacted a great idea leads him further into illusion, when all he’s gotten is a small fragment of a much greater idea.  So what he attempts to materialize is inaccurate and unsuitable.  Many factors contribute to this problem including the point in evolution of the man (i.e., imperfect integration of the personality, indefiniteness of the thoughtform, wrong material attracted for building the thoughtform, a shifting focus due to the dimness of the ideal, and an unstable relationship between the senses idea and the mind).  The meditation was on the glamor of the personality.  The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on 28 Sep 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 87, reading no. 27. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” page 51-53. Michael led us through a discussion of the glamour of authority and the illusion of power. The illusion of power is generally a mental condition and a misperception or “great mistake”, but it can descend to the astral plane becoming blinding. We must be aware of our susceptibility to these conditions, as it is rare for any disciple to escape the effects of these errors. Success and right motive can actually attract this false sense of power. When we begin to sense soul contact, through meditation, good intentions, and right techniques, our inner powers begin to express. Integration is power. Our personalities strive to claim these inner powers for themselves, and we can lose all sense of proportion, expressing spiritual self-importance. The personality can “spoil” the service and light of the soul. Those having taken the first and second initiations are especially prone to these glamours. Michael suggested that we all search within ourselves for these particular glamours, asking if we have succeeded in being clear channels for expressing light and love. The meditation itself was on the glamour of personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on September 21, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 86. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” page 51. Michael led us into a presentation and discussion of the last three Rules of the Road. The rules are offered in symbolic language. We must remember that the Pilgrim referenced in these rules is our true SELF, the Monad as the Soul in incarnation traveling this path. Interpretations were provided of the symbols of Rule IV concerning wearing a hood, carrying a water pot, and carrying a staff without a crook; we need to be open and honest with our fellow travelers along the path, be willing to share, and when needed become the Good Shepherd with those who might lose their way.  Symbols of Rule V include the pot of fire, the lamp, the purse of gold, and the sealed vase; they represent solar fire, fellowship and kindness and that of setting an example by letting others see into our vulnerabilities and true heart.  The sealed vase is for our aspirations, and Michael reminded us of the four ancient veils (that of impulsion, distortion, separation, and aspiration) as described in Rays and Initiations page 196.  Symbols of Rule VI were the open ear (truly listen), the giving hand (service is never a delay in our own path), the silent tongue (gossip and criticism have no place in group work), the chastened heart (only the soul desires count and the more soul-centered we are the less we attract any unwanted lower desires), the golden voice (words of the soul and speaking to restore people to their soul), the rapid foot (being alert and ready to go where the Hierarchy needs us), and the open eye (the light of the soul).  It ends with he knows he is not alone because soul work is group work and that involves group travel, group initiation, and group consciousness.  Michael again suggested the importance of not only memorizing these rules, but of making each of them a part of our daily life. The meditation itself was on the Rules of the Road, thinking about the condition of the Astral Plane, and clearing out glamorous conditions. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on September 14, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 85. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 50-51. Michael led us into a presentation of the first three Rules of the Road. The rules are somewhat symbolic but also practical. Six rules are given because it is the number of form and has a direct relation with the astral plane. This road is an energy stream/life thread we have carried with us from the beginning. We should consider ourselves as average aspirants subject to the distinguishing characteristics listed. As we tread this path with others, our attitude about time must be adjusted. We must move forward together without wasting energy. Traveling alone may result in a glamour of isolation. Humility is needed. Michael suggests the importance of memorizing these rules. The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was adapted as a meditation on the glamour of disobeying these Rules assuming the group perspective meditating on the first three Rules and viewing humanity as the Pilgrim: We travel not alone moving together despite our limitations and press forward. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on September 7, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 84. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 48-50.  Michael discussed entering into group work and the group rhythm that obeys the laws of the spiritual realm.  There is a set rule of interplay, of travel, of group recognition and work of the New Group of World Servers, and as we learn to work within this, like with Full Moon or New Moon meditations, the techniques penetrate our consciousness and we automatically begin to obey the higher rhythm, eventually entering the silent places where the Masters dwell within the cosmic ethers and the realm of the Spiritual Triad.  Along this road, we revolt from the control and fall back into the glamor of needing freedom, but while we may gain freedom from the control of the personality we must recognize there is never any freedom from the Law of Service.  To stand really free is to stand in the unimpeded light of the soul, and that is intrinsically group consciousness.  From the time we can focus on the higher mental plane, group consciousness takes over, giving way eventually to the Consciousness of the Oneness.  Michael pointed out what it says in Rays and Initiations, p685-686 about looking at the initiations from the angle of liberation and attainment of freedom (freedom from control of the physical body at the 1st Initiation, freedom from control of the emotional nature at the 2nd Initiation, freedom from the 3-fold personality at the 3rd Initiation, etc.).  DK reminds us that when we are beset by uncertainty and a desire to walk free, that we need to make sure we aren’t submitting to the glamor to be freed from our group impacts.  Does our own interior satisfaction, he asks us, warrant sacrificing the group integrity?  Michael pointed out the 4 factors of occult obedience from A Treatise on White Magic, p583 (enquire the way, obey the inward impulses of the soul, pay no attention to any worldly consideration, and live a life which is an example to others). And he finished up the reading with information that the authority to which the teachers on the inner side respond is twofold: the slowly emerging realization of the “light beyond,” and the authority of the Rules of the Road.  The meditation itself concerned lying, distorting truth, and hiding truth from ourselves and others. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on August 31, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 83. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 43-48. Michael discussed how we need to discover where each of us stand in terms of glamour and illusion, and hence our next steps forward. By dissipating our own glamours, we help those following in our footsteps. Libra is very important to help us break free from clinging to unrealities we may attach to ideals, thereby adjusting our sense of proportion. Venus, its traditional ruler, brings in the light of the Ray 5 mind that is used in the Technique of Light for the dissipation of glamour. Kama-manas, or desire-mind, is rampant in the world today, resulting in the glamours of lying and misrepresentation. This mass glamour of authority is giving rise to Nazism and other forms of totalitarianism as ideals, for which it is essential that we avoid. The greatest sources of glamour are self-pity, criticism, suspicion, and especially FEAR. Illusion can be like a wall-builder of separativeness, preventing us from seeing the reality of unity and oneness in the diversity of manifestation. We must guard against falling under the spell of the false teacher (Busiris in the Gemini myth in the Labors of Hercules) that would control our thoughts and emotions. We accomplish this through a blend of self-reliance and group work. Note that even the soul ray can be distorted by the personality. The meditation itself concerned lying and misrepresenting the truth. The term that Michael was searching for during this webinar to describe that imposition of the glamour of Authority is: TOTALITARIAN. The group used the Formula for the Dissipation of the Glamour of Lying and Misrepresentation of the Truth. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on August 24, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 82. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 42-43.  Michael discussed that the average man works with forces of life on the 3 planes of human endeavor (the 18 lower sub-planes) plus the principle of life. The disciple begins to discriminate between forces and energy and begins to work with soul energy, and not just theorize about it.  And the initiate works with energy and learns to distinguish between the energy of life, energies of the soul, and the forces of the phenomenal world.  The nature of these forces and energies and their use and control must be worked out in full consciousness—theory must become fact. Through alignment the intuition is evoked and the inner activity becomes a practical part of the disciple’s life (the Technique of the Presence) and is used as a great dispelling agency.  Through alignment, the energy of the soul is evoked and awakened (the Technique of Light) and used as a great dissipating agency, carrying illumination. These 2 types of spiritual energy work differently upon forces of the personality and have to be realized in the brain consciousness as the disciple works upon the physical plane.  Only then can the light of intuition and light of the soul return to the astral plane through the conscious effort and dynamic intelligent will of the serving disciple.  Master DK tells us to “Ponder on these points for they outline your way and your service . . . .” The meditation itself concerned lying and untruth. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on August 3, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 81. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 38-41. Michael began with a recapitulation of the subject of glamor, and how the analytical mind has to differentiate the distinctive phases of illusion, glamor, and maya, plus the Dweller on the Threshold.  Maya arose in Lemurian days, but there was no real glamor or illusion then; Maya is found on the Etheric Plane and the objective is to devitalize it.  Glamor arose in early Atlantean times and is found on the Astral Plane; the object is to dissipate it through meditation and holding the mind steady in the light.  Illusion arose among advanced human beings in later Atlantean days and will be the controlling factor in our Aryan race; it is found on the Mental Plane and the objective is to dispel it through contemplation of the Soul.  The Dweller on the Threshold is the physical brain consciousness of duality, with the Angel of the Presence as it’s opposite, and discrimination of the integrated personality and realization of at-one-ment end the duality.   although illusion doesn’t fully play its part and the Dweller is seldom realized until the 3rd Initiation. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on August 3, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 80. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 37-38.  The adjusted sense of right proportion of Libra allows the aspirant to see things the way they are. This along with alignment, soul contact and steadfastness are foundational to success in becoming a pure channel for the energy of the soul. Groups can be established all around the world to work on the dissipation of glamour yet must be ever vigilant to counter the ‘inevitable’ problem when the individual glamours ‘unite’ and create an opening for group glamour to enter in. Both L.T.S-K who financed the publishing of the books and I.B.S. had strong 6th Ray producing powerful glamours countered by the love energy of the group of trained observers. D.K. sets out the guide for this group and future groups to use. The group members must learn to identify the glamours before being engulfed in them. This training will involve a great deal of time and vigilance. The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was used in relation to the Glamour of the Personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on July 27, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 79. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 36-37.  Michael began with a recap of where we left off last week, discussing the experimental group of the DINA disciples, and how only that which is experimentally known becomes a true content of the equipment of the disciple.  DK discusses illusion as pre-eminently the result of the misinterpretation of ideas, but that the time is not yet right to deal with world illusion.  However, it is time to take the first steps in dissipating glamour, and hence the training of esoteric groups to enable them to plan a concerted attack on world glamour. Techniques for doing so are for the disciple to align with the soul and act purely as a channel for the energy of the soul; this pours light down and irradiates the mind and brain consciousness.  Alignment, contact with his soul, and steadfastness are the keynotes to success.  The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on July 20, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 78. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 35-36. Michael started with a discussion about individuals and group learning the meaning of true self-knowledge so they could truly stand in spiritual being, free from glamour and illusion. Part of the Plan of Hierarchy involves starting small groups like the DINA Glamour group for providing the active means so world glamour could be dissipated.  DK talked about 4 members of the group fighting glamour in their individual lives, and how in an experimental group as theirs, wrestling with glamour will naturally occur because only what is experimentally known becomes a true content of the the equipment of the disciple.  DK tells the disciples to wrestle with their personal problems so they will gain facility in discernment, in clear, precise action, and in strengthened understanding. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on July 13, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 77. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 33-35. Michael discussed how maya is the result of both glamour and illusion, and connotes an integrated personality and the capacity to tune in on mental illusion and astral glamour because maya is the intense activity produced when both glamour and illusion are realized on etheric levels.  Master DK describes it as “that vital unthinking emotional MESS in which the majority of human beings seem always to live.”  What constitutes the prime difficulty of any disciple is the fact that the battleground of his life involves every aspect of his nature–the whole man is involved.  Disciples are advised to watch themselves in their daily life with discrimination to distinguish between glamour, illusion, and maya.  The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on July 6, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 76. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 31-33. Michael continued to expand on the subject of illusion in relation to Master DK’s teachings, in particular the condition in which the aspirant is being controlled by potent thoughtforms that impact the life of the aspirant and tune in to mass thoughtforms of a similar nature. If the man is highly developed, the mental illusion can be built around intuition, yet the concrete mind can build an illusion that seems to be strong and clear to the person. These then have significant consequences for the masses of men. The problems with this type of illusion relate particularly to the period between the 2nd and 3rd initiations when the aspirant can “walk ever in a fog deceived by appearance.” We create and attract distortions that the Master can see. As human beings we are more likely to feel rather than see the distortions. Old mindsets must be released with the first step being recognition and following that recognition of the glamour and illusion with the development of the will-to-do. The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was used in relation to the Glamour of the Personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on June 29, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 75. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 29-31. Michael discussed how strong mental types are subject to illusion, a condition where an aspirant is being controlled by potent thoughtforms that control the life of the aspirant and tune in to mass thoughtforms of a similar nature. If the man is highly developed, the mental illusion can be built around intuition, yet the concrete mind can build an illusion that seems to be strong and clear to the person. Other people with a more average mental development succumb to general illusion of a mass nature. These sharply indicated thoughtforms mingle with similar thoughtforms, and become channels for drawing more powerful thoughtforms. Examples of this are ancient theologies in modern garb, fixed presentations of half-truths, and exaggerated thinking of various world groups—all of which contribute to wrong concepts and thoughts. What is needed instead is people who are independent thinkers who train themselves in mental attitudes, receptivity, and response. They need to be the observer, the Soul, and it is their responsibility to become mediating interpreters of right ideas. They must dissolve, shatter, and transform illusion to limit these dogmatic thoughtforms and prepare the heart and mind for the reappearance of the Christ. The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was used in relation to the Glamour of the Personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 74. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 24-29. Michael reviewed the problems for the group to work on: 1) distinguishing among maya, glamor, and illusion; 2) discovering what condition(s) induce glamor; and 3) finding out what methods are effective in ceasing bewildering or deceiving conditions. He noted each individual is responsible for addressing these problems and must learn to deal with them as an individual and as a group. Michael emphasized the importance of the 5th Ray and certain planetary influences, Venus and Mercury, in dealing with glamour. He read the lists of glamours associated with each Ray (GWP pages 120-123). Michael discussed 3 things that must be remembered: the united auras of the group determine the group’s activity and usefulness as well as the glamours of the group; each person must determine their own problem and deal with the glamours with due care, caution and right understanding; and the group must be a group of positive auras “deliberately subordinated to group work.” With continuous concerted effort, the “light that is within will shine forth with greater clarity.” The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was used in relation to the Glamour of the Personality. The next webinar in this series will be on June 22nd, 5 pm GMT. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on June 15, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 73. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 24-27. Michael continued his discussion on the Dweller on the Threshold, and discussed the 3 things Master DK outlined to his disciples: 1) define their understanding of the destruction of the dweller, devitalizing general maya, dissipating glamor, and dispelling illusion; 2) saying daily the Lord’s Prayer; and 3) participating in and keeping a record of Full Moon meditations. This enables the disciple to go forward into greater light upon the Vertical Way. After a review of the definitions of Illusion, Glamor, and Maya, the session ended with 3 more things Master DK identified as problems for the group to work on: 1) distinguishing between maya, glamor, and illusion; 2) discovering what condition(s) induce glamor; and 3) finding out what methods are effective in ceasing bewildering or deceiving conditions. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on June 8, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 72. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 22-24. The Dweller on the Threshold was discussed and the integrated combination of maya, glamor, and illusion all working together, created over many lifetimes. Our virtues can conceal our vices from us and over time can hold us back from further advancement. We must lay that well-developed personality at the altar of the Soul. Then later the Soul must be renounced for a still higher aspect, the Monad. We’re always giving way to something higher, as even the Monad must eventually be relinquished. Further reading discussed that the dissipation of much of the glamor that mankind is immersed in will largely disappear during the coming Aquarian Age. Through meditation, the thinkers of the world will begin to rid the world of this illusion. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on April 6, 2018.

The glamors of pride and egotism were discussed, and how the Black Lodge attempts to hoodwink well-meaning aspirants with untruths that are fueled by illusion on the mental plane (manas) and desire on the astral plane (kama) that create glamour. When both combine on the etheric levels, DK tells us it creates a vital unthinking emotional mess (kama-manas) that fails to separate the two and because they occur simultaneously, they corrupt each other. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 23, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 110, reading no. 50. Michael reviewed an important statement regarding the primary cause of glamour being the sense of duality, and the difficulties we face through our misidentification as our bodies. Disillusionment is the release from glamour. We are in the process of developing unitive consciousness. This perception of the dual nature of all manifestation lies at the very root of all troubles humanity faces. This problem of consciousness creates our wrong perception and interpretation, leading to the misidentification whereby we are engulfed, deluded and imprisoned until we recognize the situation. Our emotions support unrealities. We are the story of the Prodigal Son. We then proceeded into the stages of extricating ourselves from glamour. The first stage occurs when the material world is recognized and realized—the glamour of materialism. This stage has two parts: first is the satisfaction of the physical instincts of the individualized man; and second concerns the pleasures of material possessions. The Tibetan has a wonderful coloristic description of the ascent of man, found in Discipleship of the New Age, Vol, I, p. 674, called The Sublimation of the Five Human Stages. The first two stages were discussed. The colors tell us where we stand. The meditation itself was on the glamour of hatred. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 29, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 109, reading no. 49. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 92-95. Completing the Section: Dweller on the Threshold the webinar began with a review of the most common rays for the physical, astral and mental vehicles found in humanity at this time, noting those exceptions found for a few of Master DK’s disciples in DINA Volumes I and II and some of the reasons DK noted the exceptions for particular disciples. If your rays are different from those noted as most common, then you may be an accepted disciple. Accepted discipleship is attained when you have a direct contact with the master. How has this been revealed? The group then considered a set of questions on page 93 each considered silently and followed by Michael’s comments: 1) When the intuition is developed, the impact or “straight knowledge” is seen and all is locked into step establishing a unity of all factors which dawns upon the consciousness. 2) Working with the Technique of Light reveals the glamours that are hiding the Light. The beam of Light eventually becomes the horn of the Unicorn. 3) The veils of the etheric plane are the forces or impulsions driving the human being until he can control the energies. Inspiration is a rhythmic breathing of divinity, breathing in the higher energies and releasing them, the rhythm works in cycles and impulses that are regulated. The 7th ray rhythmic breathing is very important in our efforts to not succumb to the chaos of maya. The rhythmic and ordered life helps restore our own energy system rather than being driven by chaotic impulse. The group continued with consideration of a new section – Causes of Glamour, Section Two: The racial and individual causes of glamour. Familiarity leads to the inability to see the distortions in which we are living for both maya and illusion as well as glamour. Illusions, misunderstandings and misinterpretations continue until emotional unity is achieved on the way to the experience of Oneness which is found in monadic awareness. The discontinuity, disillusionment, distortions are dispelled through the use of the intuition. Unsentimental love / Love-wisdom prevents the appearance of distortions and disillusionment. As occultists in training with detachment, we overcome illusions and actually achieve Disillusionment as Master DK uses the term, as the key to the release from glamour. The fundamental cause of glamour is the sense of duality. Unity is achieved in contemplation and the heart centre is involved, allowing the fusion of the subject and the object. Oneness goes even deeper though. Yet words are used loosely and we must take care not to further our misunderstandings. We on this planet are adjudicators; we always must reconcile the dualities, the great mistake of misperception, through contemplative meditation. Our very perceptions are rooted in our dweller in the body, in duality, incorrectly perceiving, wrongly seeing the phenomena that engulf and delude, causing restlessness and unhappiness. Do we actually know this experientially? Self-knowledge is the first step and leads us through a long period of untangling before glamour can be overcome. The webinar closed with the Formula for the Dissipation of the glamour of selfishness. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 22, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 108, reading no. 48. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 90-92. This new section begins a discussion on the Dweller on the Threshold. The number 108 is significant in several ways. Not all of us are currently fighting with the real Dweller, as it is faced by the third degree initiate. This is the Dweller standing open-eyed before the gate facing the Angel. Being ‘open-eyed’ involves being fully self-aware. There are several very good definitions provided for this aspect of our evolving Self. The Dweller is everything we are before real illumination, inspiration, and initiation (soul infusion), and is extremely potent. From the form side, the Dweller on the Threshold embodies many good and useful things, when properly directed. We are learning to subordinate the Third Aspect to the Second Aspect of divinity. We are just at the stage or recognizing what is the dweller in our nature, so that we can strive to resolve the pairs of opposites on the physical, emotional, and mental planes. Each of these pairs of opposites occur on different paths—purification, discipleship, and initiation. On which path are our struggles or crises occurring? In studying our rays, it is important to look at the effect we have on other people. The meditation itself was on the glamour of self-assured narrow-mindedness. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 15, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 107, reading no. 47. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 88-90. This reading completes the section on Maya. Michael reviewed the last paragraph of last week’s reading. Transmutation has to do with the physical nature, transformation with the emotional nature, and transfiguration with the mental nature. Also, Ray 1 relates to destruction, Ray 2 to purification, and Ray 3 to organization. In World War I, the conflict that was fought concerned the physical/etheric nature, and was a tremendous test and discipline. Due to this conflict, many humans entered the Probationary Path. It brought out discipline, aspiration, and a higher sense of values. Something of the fifth kingdom of nature was coming through. The effects were important in devitalizing the world maya. Interestingly, wars have been expiating (releasing and then negating) experiences for humanity. Focusing on physical disciplines and training is related to this Path, as is purification. One of the first steps in handling maya is physical coordination which, as a “right activity” on the Path of Return, also includes astral orientation, mental direction, and personality alignment. The Tibetan points to the value of memorization. The meditation itself was on the glamour of self-importance. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 8, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 106, reading no. 46. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 85-88. Michael suggests continuing study every day, at least for an hour. The glamour of egotism is one of the most difficult and is based on mistaken identity, and a mistaken self-glorification. Maya is largely an etheric condition in a battle of the pairs of opposites. There are many levels of these pairs of opposites. Michael showed, on the chart of the Egoic Lotus and the Centers, how pairs of opposites may be observed. The Tibetan considers the etheric body as the true physical, while the dense body is an automaton. Latent impulses of the personality life (not under soul control) are blended with pranic fluids, becoming potent streams of force emerging through the chakras into manifestation. We draw in the general environing prana until there is definite direction and higher control. Note that there are five types of prana. Etheric energy passes through two stages prior to the period of discipleship. Stage One blends the latent force of matter with etheric energy through physical discipline. Stage Two is the battle of the lower pairs of opposites, as one reorients towards higher values, expresses as the conflict between the vital force and the dense physical body, and is fought out in the astral nature. The meditation itself was on the glamour of egotism and self-importance. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on March 1, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 105, reading no. 45. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 84-85. Michael began the section “Glamour upon Etheric Levels…Maya”. Maya is also called “that unthinking emotional mess” and “the veil of impulsion”. An “old commentary” piece from Esoteric Astrology, page 20, describes that “mess” and indicates a means for its overcoming. Maya is only experienced when one has entered the spiritual Path, and is especially pertinent to the first degree. During the early stages of human evolution, it is not possible to recognize it. The forces against which we are struggling are extremely ancient, and are predominately a difficulty of the etheric body. These mayavic forces are the uncontrolled energies and undirected impulses emanating from the world of prana and the latent force of matter. One is helpless when swept into its wrong activity and a whirlpool of effects and conditions. We see this in mass consciousness, the maya of the crowd. We are being deceived about the nature of Reality due to Maya, Glamour, and Illusion. Our means to freedom is the Intuition (dispelling illusion), Illumination (dissipating glamour), and Inspiration (dispersing maya). The meditation itself was on the glamour of narcissism (and its expressions of self-love, self-obsession, lower egoism and egotism). The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on February 22, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 104, reading no. 44. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 81-84. Intuition is latent in the Spiritual Triad, and is found on the fourth subplane of the Buddhic plane. It expresses as pure reason and straight knowledge. For an initiate, the intuition is as normally active as the mind of an actively intelligent person. It is also called the Transcendental Mind. Criticism, separativeness or pride, suspicion, and self-pity are definite breeders of glamour. Freeing oneself from these three characteristics shows one is well on the way to the dissipation of all glamour. Glamour keeps one from seeing things in right proportion. Illusion is dispelled through the conscious use of the intuition, thereby coming in touch with Reality in all forms. Disidentification is a way to find this reality. The right kind of insulation and isolation (Isolated Unity) leads to right contact and relationship with the Real. We must deal with the problem of glamour through analysis, discrimination, and right thought. The meditation itself was on the glamour of personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on February 15, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 103, reading no. 43. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 80-81. This reading completed the fifth of the five glamours holding humanity in prison—that of the Path. We can learn the nature of these glamours by studying the three temptations faced by Jesus (or the Christ): the world, the flesh, and the devil. The glamours are all based on misidentification with the form, and are displayed through a number of self-expressions. We are reminded that suspicion, self-pity, and criticism (that dire producer of misery) are major causes of glamour. The battles that disciples face are primarily of glamour. Illumination can be achieved through Raja Yoga. With this light and vision, the fogs and miasmas of glamour is dissipated. We must remember that “glamour is not dissipated through the means of the intuition nor is illusion overcome by the use of the illumined mind”. The meditation itself was on the glamour of war. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on February 8, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 102, reading no. 42. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 79-80. This reading focused on the fourth of five glamours holding humanity in prison—that of the pairs of opposites. The reference to the “middle way” is to the vertical path (Libra) which is always rising as the point of tension continues to rise. The astral body is prominent due to our living in an astral-buddhic solar system, and so affects all. As we travel along this path, we must realize that our emotional “ups and downs” are not of the soul at all. On the “mystical path”, one may be held by this particular glamour for many years, or even lives. When speaking of the “polarized mind”, it relates to a period between the second and third degrees. It is also important to realize that the triplicity of the three aspects of divinity—spirit, soul, and body—are all equally divine, all the product of BEING. The meditation itself was on the general engulfing glamour. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on February 1, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 101, reading no. 41. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 77-79. The focus of this reading was on the third of five glamours holding humanity in prison—that of devotion. This is especially powerful in the lives of probationary disciples and those with Ray 6 souls, personalities, or emotional natures. This is due to the long Ray 6 cycle now completing, as well as the ending Piscean cycles—a double reinforcement. We are told to ponder on our devotion to causes, teachers, creeds, persons, duties, and/or responsibilities. It becomes harmful when it swings one into the rhythm of the world glamour, which is a fog of desire (which initially may appear quite beautiful). This type of devotional glamour can be particularly difficult, commencing a long imprisonment. One way to overcome this glamour is by contacting the greater Self through the higher Self, thus losing sight of the lower self. The meditation itself was on the glamour of devotion. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on January 25, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 100, reading no. 40. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 76-77. Michael discussed the second of the five glamours holding humanity in prison, being that of sentiment. This expresses as an emotional reaction, creating a sentimental understanding of the nature of love. For most people, love is a mixture of the desire to love and to be loved. Through sentiment, one seeks comfort in the interior life. Few there are that truly know the nature of love, particularly in family relationships. Affection is an astral reaction and not love. One definition for love is “the spontaneous desirelessness of the soul which asks nothing for the separated self”. The true lover must be very alert to the needs of the other. Michael read the definition for sentiment found on page 209 of The Rays and The Initiations. The meditation itself was on the glamour of personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on January 18, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 99, reading no. 39. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 74-76. Michael began discussing the first of the five glamours holding humanity in prison. The first is the glamour of materiality. It causes all of the present world distress, particularly with so much of the glamour having an economic basis. It is a problem of a dull perception, leading one to grasp at false treasures and values. We must learn to understand what is truly of value—that found within the soul. We must also keep in mind that not all types of possessions suit all people, as this relates to one’s place on the evolutionary ladder. The desire nature of humanity is changing as new standards for values are realized. Freedom from this glamour results in the liberation to live the life of the mind. The meditation itself was on the glamour of materialism. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on January 11, 2019.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 98, reading no. 38. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 72-73. Michael discussed the second, third, and fourth recognitions that one must understand when working with glamour. The second concerns the fog enveloping humanity is a definite substantial thing, although the astral forms created are less clearly defined than those created in mental substance. Generally undetectable by most people, the astral forms are described as smothering, vague, enveloping, submerging and swaying. The third recognition is that the great energetic potency of glamour is due to a) it’s an ancient rhythm inherent in astral substance that has been created by human desire; b) it’s part of the human energy system that is part of life processes; c) it is Atlantean in nature and consciousness, being highly developed during that period, and can only be dissipated by the fifth root-race through the technique of 1) standing in spiritual being and 2) keeping the mind steady in the light. The fourth recognition is that the major glamours holding humanity in the prison of form are those of materiality, sentiment, devotion, the pairs of opposites, and the Path. These will be more fully described in a future meeting. The meditation itself was on the glamour of selfishness. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on December 14, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 97, reading no. 37. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 70-72. The Astral Plane is the major area of distortions in which humanity lives. Michael began discussing the four recognitions that must be understood by those working with glamour. The first being the world of glamours in which each human being is engulfed results from a) past wrong thinking, selfish desires, and misunderstanding the purposes of life; b) the past and present family “desire life” that shows inherited and/or demonstrated psychological tendencies; c) the totality of national desire life and illusions, showing the national characteristics and psychological traits; and d) the ancient glamours of the human race, including entrenched desires, potent aspirations, and kama-manasic forms such as money with only materialistic value. The meditation itself was on the glamour of lying. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on December 7, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 96, reading no. 36. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 69-70. Michael began reading the section specific to glamour on the astral plane. Sometimes illusion, glamour, and maya are used in a general sense, with each referring to the totality of distortions on the lower eighteen subplanes. In this period, humanity is primarily affected by emotional glamour. Michael suggests that the accepted discovery of Vulcan will facilitate release from glamour. Accepted disciples battle with both glamour and illusion. As we move into this phase of our training, are we strong enough to deal with both distortions? Both Mercury and Saturn play a role in this. Integration of personality and soul energies is consummated significantly at the third degree. Take note about what our “best self” might be. Discrimination is a psychic power found on the fourth level of the mental plane. What choice of a life theme is appropriate for this incarnation? Be aware of the choice(s) we have made. The astral body of the planet is a murky ball of seeming steam, mist, and fog. The meditation itself was on the glamour of selfishness. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on November 30, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 95, reading no. 35. Reading was from Glamour: A World Problem pages 67-68. Michael reminded us that we need to work on dissipating our own personal glamours. This reading ends the section in the book on illusion. Contemplation dispels illusion as we slip into the soul’s meditation. There are three major divisions of the meditation process to address the distortions of reality: concentration by the Aspirant relates to devitalizing maya (ruled by Leo), meditation by the Disciple relates to dissipating glamour (ruled by Virgo), and contemplation by the Initiate relates to dispelling illusion (ruled by Libra). The state of contemplation is largely unreachable for most of us. Libra is the sign of humility (an adjusted sense of right proportion) and contemplation. Our major problem is glamour rather than illusion. As we develop our minds, we must distinguish between mental focus and mental polarization. To be most effective in our work of helping humanity, we must carefully assess our motives – are they for the separated personality, or for the larger group – humanity itself. The meditation itself was on the glamour of selfish combat for the sake of personal advantage. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on November 16, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 94, reading no. 34. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 65-67. Michael stated that we are not entirely free from glamour and illusion until we take the 9th initiation and are free of the cosmic physical plane. Following a brief alignment, Michael discussed how the intuition is increasingly necessary in the dispelling of illusion. It is the intuition that dispels illusion (Technique of the Presence), the illumined mind that dissipates glamour (Technique of Light), and the right use of the breath that devitalizes maya (Technique of Indifference). The concrete mind is not enough to do this work. This indicates the need for building the antahkarana in order to access the intuition. Note how the transcendental mind, being the intuition (or pure realization), is governed by the higher part of Mercury. Michael discussed the relationships between Mercury, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The opposite pole of illusion is the intuition – the recognition of reality that becomes possible as glamour and illusion disappear. The mind reflects the soul on the higher mental plane and the astral body reflects the intuition on the buddhic plane. We bring in buddhic impression through the use of Raja Yoga, stillness, and non-activity of the mind in a way that will reveal something closer to pure truth. The meditation itself was on the glamour of rulership, of dictatorship, and of wide control. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on Nov 9, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 93, reading no. 33. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 63-66. Michael began discussing the wrong embodiment of ideas; this is illusion through wrong discrimination where substance is concerned.  The cause is lack of esoteric training in creative activity and the cure is application of 5th ray methods, which are highly discriminative methods of the mental plane.   Michael also discussed wrong application of ideas, where a disciple might contact an idea intuitively, but the full impression has not fully worked through the mind.  This can sweep the disciple into wrong activity and wrong application of ideas.  The meditation itself was on the glamour of blatant lying and manipulation. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on Nov 2, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 92, reading no. 32. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 62-63. Michael discussed the 4th and 5thways that illusion demonstrates, through wrong direction of ideas (introducing an idea into a context in which it does not belong) and wrong integration of an idea (contacting ideas that do not integrate into our personal field of service). In the first case, there might be some value to the ideas, but when they are misapplied, presented incorrectly or in the wrong context, illusion is strengthened.  The cause is a small and non-inclusive mind, and its cure is the training of the mind to be inclusive, well-stocked and well-developed.  In the second case, overzealousness and over-activity of the mind cause the person to seize upon an idea and try and work with, even if they don’t have the aptitude or understanding to do so.  Not all ideas contacted will fit in with the person’s field of service, and they need to discern which are appropriate and which are not.  Many good disciples demonstrate this over-zealousness and end up with no constructive objectives because they reach for too many that are inappropriate for their designated work and cannot be integrated into their life program.  This is illusion through acquisitiveness and its cause is selfishly grasping for the little self; the cure is a humble spirit.  The meditation itself was on the glamour of lying and everything that prevents truth from manifesting. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on October 26, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 91, reading no. 31. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 60-62. Michael quickly reviewed the first two of seven ways in which illusion usually demonstrates. The focus of this webinar was the third way, which is through wrong appropriation of ideas. All the problems of the world consist in the words “me” and “mine”. Taking ownership of ideas is an unjustified action of the personality. The “my” part becomes more important than the idea itself. This lower Leo phase of development needs the corrective action of Libra. The cause of this illusion is an over-estimation of personality upon the sensed idea and undue impress of personality reactions upon the sensed idea and upon all who attempt to contact the same idea. The cure for this illusion is a steady attempt to decentralize the life from the personality, and to center it in the soul which is non-possessive and group conscious. Consider the effects in one’s life of discipline, dispassion, discrimination, decentralization, detachment, and discernment. This was followed by a general summary of the first three ways in which illusion usually demonstrates. Intuition is also called the “transcendental mind”. The meditation itself was on the glamour of the divine right of kings and of leaders. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 90. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 59-60.  Michael began reviewing the first illusion, wrong perception of an idea and reiterating the great heresy of separateness, or the inability to perceive the unity of things.  A separative consciousness does not act in the interest of the whole.  Then he began discussing the second of the seven ways that illusion demonstrates:  wrong interpretation of a presented idea.  When our mental equipment is inadequate, and we are not able to hold the mind steady in the Light of the Soul, we receive only partial views of reality. The cause of this illusion is the over-estimation of one’s mental powers, resulting in a prideful attitude toward one’s mind. This condition may be especially prominent in ray types three and five. The cure for this illusion is developing a cautious spirit; Saturn and Ray 3 are helpful,  with true humility, balance, and an adjusted sense of right proportion.  We paused in meditation to consider our own status, to reflect on whether we indulged in overinflated mental pride (or undervalued one) and whether or not we were developing that cautious spirit.  He pointed out that the humble spirit expressed itself in our ability to talk to others and help them understand esoteric concepts.  Michael also pointed out the list of virtues and vices of the rays found in Esoteric Psychology Vol I beginning on page 200.  Then he answered several questions, including one on how to distinguish between an idea, a law, and a principle.  A Law is always true and is a formulated, sustained will of a great being; the law protects the archetype of the being.  A principle is an aspect of that being; A Treatise on Cosmic Fire, beginning on p259 lists all the principles from different levels of consciousness and explains the different ways of looking at these principles depending on our conscious status or point of view.  Another question was on the distinction between an idea, ideal, and thoughtform.  Ideas are archetypes that need to be manifested on the lower planes, and they come from the buddhic plane or higher.  Ideals are formed in the concrete mind and astral vehicle, and they give form to the perceived idea.  Thoughtforms are forms, but are abstract, leaving out the details, and are formed on the higher mental plane, so they still need to be brought down into the concrete mind and the 18 lower sub-planes.  In other words, the intuition perceives the idea, clothes it in abstract thought, and then in concrete form.  The meditation was on the glamor of the personality and things that prevent true perception of reality, like self-importance.  The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on 12 October 2018.   The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 89, reading no. 29. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 57-59. Michael began by reviewing a few of the points covered in the previous reading. The current reading begins the seven ways in which illusion usually demonstrates, which are not necessarily related to the seven rays. We reviewed a definition of “ideas”, as they come from the cosmic ethers demonstrating as archetypes, and not just from the buddhic plane. We all dwell in an atmosphere of illusion. We studied in depth the first of the seven ways that illusion demonstrates, that of wrong perceptions of ideas. We pondered upon the difference between an idea and an ideal. The cause of wrong perception is an untrained and unillumined mind. The cure for this condition is training in the technique of Raja Yoga. There are four books that the Tibetan strongly recommends be a part of a disciple’s library and study. The meditation itself was on the glamour of personalism. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on October 5, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 88. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 53-57. Michael began discussing Illusion (glamor on the mental plane).  We don’t meet illusion (and can’t therefore overcome it) until we become the thinker.  The man must be focused consciously on the mental plane (generally, people are not yet mentally focused); working with intelligent, heart-felt service; able to make soul alignment easily; and have taken the first initiation, when it becomes possible for the mind to be held steadily in the Light.  True ideas come forth from the Buddhic plane, formless impressions until the higher mind interprets them and clothes them in mental substance.  This is where distortion comes in, especially for beginners, and ideas are misinterpreted as they are processed from the soul to the brain.  They can be built with inferior material from an inadequate mind, or colored through the ray types of the vehicles of expression (soul, mental, or physical brain), creating illusion and distortion of the pure idea by the qualifying equipment of the interpreter.  DK tells us that illusion, for our purposes, can be understood to signify the reaction of the undisciplined mind to the newly contacted world of ideas.  The mind of man becomes aware of this new and undiscovered world of ideas and he seizes upon some idea and tries to make it his own.   But his mind is still self-centered and the contact feeble, so the ideas are only dimly sensed.  Thinking the experience is unique or that he’s contacted a great idea leads him further into illusion, when all he’s gotten is a small fragment of a much greater idea.  So what he attempts to materialize is inaccurate and unsuitable.  Many factors contribute to this problem including the point in evolution of the man (i.e., imperfect integration of the personality, indefiniteness of the thoughtform, wrong material attracted for building the thoughtform, a shifting focus due to the dimness of the ideal, and an unstable relationship between the senses idea and the mind).  The meditation was on the glamor of the personality.  The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on 28 Sep 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 87, reading no. 27. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” page 51-53. Michael led us through a discussion of the glamour of authority and the illusion of power. The illusion of power is generally a mental condition and a misperception or “great mistake”, but it can descend to the astral plane becoming blinding. We must be aware of our susceptibility to these conditions, as it is rare for any disciple to escape the effects of these errors. Success and right motive can actually attract this false sense of power. When we begin to sense soul contact, through meditation, good intentions, and right techniques, our inner powers begin to express. Integration is power. Our personalities strive to claim these inner powers for themselves, and we can lose all sense of proportion, expressing spiritual self-importance. The personality can “spoil” the service and light of the soul. Those having taken the first and second initiations are especially prone to these glamours. Michael suggested that we all search within ourselves for these particular glamours, asking if we have succeeded in being clear channels for expressing light and love. The meditation itself was on the glamour of personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on September 21, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 86. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” page 51. Michael led us into a presentation and discussion of the last three Rules of the Road. The rules are offered in symbolic language. We must remember that the Pilgrim referenced in these rules is our true SELF, the Monad as the Soul in incarnation traveling this path. Interpretations were provided of the symbols of Rule IV concerning wearing a hood, carrying a water pot, and carrying a staff without a crook; we need to be open and honest with our fellow travelers along the path, be willing to share, and when needed become the Good Shepherd with those who might lose their way.  Symbols of Rule V include the pot of fire, the lamp, the purse of gold, and the sealed vase; they represent solar fire, fellowship and kindness and that of setting an example by letting others see into our vulnerabilities and true heart.  The sealed vase is for our aspirations, and Michael reminded us of the four ancient veils (that of impulsion, distortion, separation, and aspiration) as described in Rays and Initiations page 196.  Symbols of Rule VI were the open ear (truly listen), the giving hand (service is never a delay in our own path), the silent tongue (gossip and criticism have no place in group work), the chastened heart (only the soul desires count and the more soul-centered we are the less we attract any unwanted lower desires), the golden voice (words of the soul and speaking to restore people to their soul), the rapid foot (being alert and ready to go where the Hierarchy needs us), and the open eye (the light of the soul).  It ends with he knows he is not alone because soul work is group work and that involves group travel, group initiation, and group consciousness.  Michael again suggested the importance of not only memorizing these rules, but of making each of them a part of our daily life. The meditation itself was on the Rules of the Road, thinking about the condition of the Astral Plane, and clearing out glamorous conditions. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on September 14, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 85. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 50-51. Michael led us into a presentation of the first three Rules of the Road. The rules are somewhat symbolic but also practical. Six rules are given because it is the number of form and has a direct relation with the astral plane. This road is an energy stream/life thread we have carried with us from the beginning. We should consider ourselves as average aspirants subject to the distinguishing characteristics listed. As we tread this path with others, our attitude about time must be adjusted. We must move forward together without wasting energy. Traveling alone may result in a glamour of isolation. Humility is needed. Michael suggests the importance of memorizing these rules. The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was adapted as a meditation on the glamour of disobeying these Rules assuming the group perspective meditating on the first three Rules and viewing humanity as the Pilgrim: We travel not alone moving together despite our limitations and press forward. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on September 7, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 84. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 48-50.  Michael discussed entering into group work and the group rhythm that obeys the laws of the spiritual realm.  There is a set rule of interplay, of travel, of group recognition and work of the New Group of World Servers, and as we learn to work within this, like with Full Moon or New Moon meditations, the techniques penetrate our consciousness and we automatically begin to obey the higher rhythm, eventually entering the silent places where the Masters dwell within the cosmic ethers and the realm of the Spiritual Triad.  Along this road, we revolt from the control and fall back into the glamor of needing freedom, but while we may gain freedom from the control of the personality we must recognize there is never any freedom from the Law of Service.  To stand really free is to stand in the unimpeded light of the soul, and that is intrinsically group consciousness.  From the time we can focus on the higher mental plane, group consciousness takes over, giving way eventually to the Consciousness of the Oneness.  Michael pointed out what it says in Rays and Initiations, p685-686 about looking at the initiations from the angle of liberation and attainment of freedom (freedom from control of the physical body at the 1st Initiation, freedom from control of the emotional nature at the 2nd Initiation, freedom from the 3-fold personality at the 3rd Initiation, etc.).  DK reminds us that when we are beset by uncertainty and a desire to walk free, that we need to make sure we aren’t submitting to the glamor to be freed from our group impacts.  Does our own interior satisfaction, he asks us, warrant sacrificing the group integrity?  Michael pointed out the 4 factors of occult obedience from A Treatise on White Magic, p583 (enquire the way, obey the inward impulses of the soul, pay no attention to any worldly consideration, and live a life which is an example to others). And he finished up the reading with information that the authority to which the teachers on the inner side respond is twofold: the slowly emerging realization of the “light beyond,” and the authority of the Rules of the Road.  The meditation itself concerned lying, distorting truth, and hiding truth from ourselves and others. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on August 31, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 83. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 43-48. Michael discussed how we need to discover where each of us stand in terms of glamour and illusion, and hence our next steps forward. By dissipating our own glamours, we help those following in our footsteps. Libra is very important to help us break free from clinging to unrealities we may attach to ideals, thereby adjusting our sense of proportion. Venus, its traditional ruler, brings in the light of the Ray 5 mind that is used in the Technique of Light for the dissipation of glamour. Kama-manas, or desire-mind, is rampant in the world today, resulting in the glamours of lying and misrepresentation. This mass glamour of authority is giving rise to Nazism and other forms of totalitarianism as ideals, for which it is essential that we avoid. The greatest sources of glamour are self-pity, criticism, suspicion, and especially FEAR. Illusion can be like a wall-builder of separativeness, preventing us from seeing the reality of unity and oneness in the diversity of manifestation. We must guard against falling under the spell of the false teacher (Busiris in the Gemini myth in the Labors of Hercules) that would control our thoughts and emotions. We accomplish this through a blend of self-reliance and group work. Note that even the soul ray can be distorted by the personality. The meditation itself concerned lying and misrepresenting the truth. The term that Michael was searching for during this webinar to describe that imposition of the glamour of Authority is: TOTALITARIAN. The group used the Formula for the Dissipation of the Glamour of Lying and Misrepresentation of the Truth. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on August 24, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 82. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 42-43.  Michael discussed that the average man works with forces of life on the 3 planes of human endeavor (the 18 lower sub-planes) plus the principle of life. The disciple begins to discriminate between forces and energy and begins to work with soul energy, and not just theorize about it.  And the initiate works with energy and learns to distinguish between the energy of life, energies of the soul, and the forces of the phenomenal world.  The nature of these forces and energies and their use and control must be worked out in full consciousness—theory must become fact. Through alignment the intuition is evoked and the inner activity becomes a practical part of the disciple’s life (the Technique of the Presence) and is used as a great dispelling agency.  Through alignment, the energy of the soul is evoked and awakened (the Technique of Light) and used as a great dissipating agency, carrying illumination. These 2 types of spiritual energy work differently upon forces of the personality and have to be realized in the brain consciousness as the disciple works upon the physical plane.  Only then can the light of intuition and light of the soul return to the astral plane through the conscious effort and dynamic intelligent will of the serving disciple.  Master DK tells us to “Ponder on these points for they outline your way and your service . . . .” The meditation itself concerned lying and untruth. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on August 3, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 81. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 38-41. Michael began with a recapitulation of the subject of glamor, and how the analytical mind has to differentiate the distinctive phases of illusion, glamor, and maya, plus the Dweller on the Threshold.  Maya arose in Lemurian days, but there was no real glamor or illusion then; Maya is found on the Etheric Plane and the objective is to devitalize it.  Glamor arose in early Atlantean times and is found on the Astral Plane; the object is to dissipate it through meditation and holding the mind steady in the light.  Illusion arose among advanced human beings in later Atlantean days and will be the controlling factor in our Aryan race; it is found on the Mental Plane and the objective is to dispel it through contemplation of the Soul.  The Dweller on the Threshold is the physical brain consciousness of duality, with the Angel of the Presence as it’s opposite, and discrimination of the integrated personality and realization of at-one-ment end the duality.   although illusion doesn’t fully play its part and the Dweller is seldom realized until the 3rd Initiation. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on August 3, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 80. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 37-38.  The adjusted sense of right proportion of Libra allows the aspirant to see things the way they are. This along with alignment, soul contact and steadfastness are foundational to success in becoming a pure channel for the energy of the soul. Groups can be established all around the world to work on the dissipation of glamour yet must be ever vigilant to counter the ‘inevitable’ problem when the individual glamours ‘unite’ and create an opening for group glamour to enter in. Both L.T.S-K who financed the publishing of the books and I.B.S. had strong 6th Ray producing powerful glamours countered by the love energy of the group of trained observers. D.K. sets out the guide for this group and future groups to use. The group members must learn to identify the glamours before being engulfed in them. This training will involve a great deal of time and vigilance. The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was used in relation to the Glamour of the Personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on July 27, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 79. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 36-37.  Michael began with a recap of where we left off last week, discussing the experimental group of the DINA disciples, and how only that which is experimentally known becomes a true content of the equipment of the disciple.  DK discusses illusion as pre-eminently the result of the misinterpretation of ideas, but that the time is not yet right to deal with world illusion.  However, it is time to take the first steps in dissipating glamour, and hence the training of esoteric groups to enable them to plan a concerted attack on world glamour. Techniques for doing so are for the disciple to align with the soul and act purely as a channel for the energy of the soul; this pours light down and irradiates the mind and brain consciousness.  Alignment, contact with his soul, and steadfastness are the keynotes to success.  The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on July 20, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 78. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 35-36. Michael started with a discussion about individuals and group learning the meaning of true self-knowledge so they could truly stand in spiritual being, free from glamour and illusion. Part of the Plan of Hierarchy involves starting small groups like the DINA Glamour group for providing the active means so world glamour could be dissipated.  DK talked about 4 members of the group fighting glamour in their individual lives, and how in an experimental group as theirs, wrestling with glamour will naturally occur because only what is experimentally known becomes a true content of the the equipment of the disciple.  DK tells the disciples to wrestle with their personal problems so they will gain facility in discernment, in clear, precise action, and in strengthened understanding. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on July 13, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 77. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 33-35. Michael discussed how maya is the result of both glamour and illusion, and connotes an integrated personality and the capacity to tune in on mental illusion and astral glamour because maya is the intense activity produced when both glamour and illusion are realized on etheric levels.  Master DK describes it as “that vital unthinking emotional MESS in which the majority of human beings seem always to live.”  What constitutes the prime difficulty of any disciple is the fact that the battleground of his life involves every aspect of his nature–the whole man is involved.  Disciples are advised to watch themselves in their daily life with discrimination to distinguish between glamour, illusion, and maya.  The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on July 6, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 76. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 31-33. Michael continued to expand on the subject of illusion in relation to Master DK’s teachings, in particular the condition in which the aspirant is being controlled by potent thoughtforms that impact the life of the aspirant and tune in to mass thoughtforms of a similar nature. If the man is highly developed, the mental illusion can be built around intuition, yet the concrete mind can build an illusion that seems to be strong and clear to the person. These then have significant consequences for the masses of men. The problems with this type of illusion relate particularly to the period between the 2nd and 3rd initiations when the aspirant can “walk ever in a fog deceived by appearance.” We create and attract distortions that the Master can see. As human beings we are more likely to feel rather than see the distortions. Old mindsets must be released with the first step being recognition and following that recognition of the glamour and illusion with the development of the will-to-do. The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was used in relation to the Glamour of the Personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on June 29, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 75. Reading was from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 29-31. Michael discussed how strong mental types are subject to illusion, a condition where an aspirant is being controlled by potent thoughtforms that control the life of the aspirant and tune in to mass thoughtforms of a similar nature. If the man is highly developed, the mental illusion can be built around intuition, yet the concrete mind can build an illusion that seems to be strong and clear to the person. Other people with a more average mental development succumb to general illusion of a mass nature. These sharply indicated thoughtforms mingle with similar thoughtforms, and become channels for drawing more powerful thoughtforms. Examples of this are ancient theologies in modern garb, fixed presentations of half-truths, and exaggerated thinking of various world groups—all of which contribute to wrong concepts and thoughts. What is needed instead is people who are independent thinkers who train themselves in mental attitudes, receptivity, and response. They need to be the observer, the Soul, and it is their responsibility to become mediating interpreters of right ideas. They must dissolve, shatter, and transform illusion to limit these dogmatic thoughtforms and prepare the heart and mind for the reappearance of the Christ. The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was used in relation to the Glamour of the Personality. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 74. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 24-29. Michael reviewed the problems for the group to work on: 1) distinguishing among maya, glamor, and illusion; 2) discovering what condition(s) induce glamor; and 3) finding out what methods are effective in ceasing bewildering or deceiving conditions. He noted each individual is responsible for addressing these problems and must learn to deal with them as an individual and as a group. Michael emphasized the importance of the 5th Ray and certain planetary influences, Venus and Mercury, in dealing with glamour. He read the lists of glamours associated with each Ray (GWP pages 120-123). Michael discussed 3 things that must be remembered: the united auras of the group determine the group’s activity and usefulness as well as the glamours of the group; each person must determine their own problem and deal with the glamours with due care, caution and right understanding; and the group must be a group of positive auras “deliberately subordinated to group work.” With continuous concerted effort, the “light that is within will shine forth with greater clarity.” The Formula for the Dissipation of Glamour was used in relation to the Glamour of the Personality. The next webinar in this series will be on June 22nd, 5 pm GMT. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on June 15, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 73. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 24-27. Michael continued his discussion on the Dweller on the Threshold, and discussed the 3 things Master DK outlined to his disciples: 1) define their understanding of the destruction of the dweller, devitalizing general maya, dissipating glamor, and dispelling illusion; 2) saying daily the Lord’s Prayer; and 3) participating in and keeping a record of Full Moon meditations. This enables the disciple to go forward into greater light upon the Vertical Way. After a review of the definitions of Illusion, Glamor, and Maya, the session ended with 3 more things Master DK identified as problems for the group to work on: 1) distinguishing between maya, glamor, and illusion; 2) discovering what condition(s) induce glamor; and 3) finding out what methods are effective in ceasing bewildering or deceiving conditions. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on June 8, 2018.

Dissipation of Glamour Initiative webinar 72. Readings from “Glamour: A World Problem” pages 22-24. The Dweller on the Threshold was discussed and the integrated combination of maya, glamor, and illusion all working together, created over many lifetimes. Our virtues can conceal our vices from us and over time can hold us back from further advancement. We must lay that well-developed personality at the altar of the Soul. Then later the Soul must be renounced for a still higher aspect, the Monad. We’re always giving way to something higher, as even the Monad must eventually be relinquished. Further reading discussed that the dissipation of much of the glamor that mankind is immersed in will largely disappear during the coming Aquarian Age. Through meditation, the thinkers of the world will begin to rid the world of this illusion. The webinar was led by Michael D. Robbins, with Olivia Hansen and Tuija Robbins. This meeting was held on April 6, 2018.
