Sit comfortably, alert and with the spine erect. Breathe quietly and regularly. Raise your consciousness to the centre between the eyebrows and without strain hold this focus.
- Identify yourself as part of the group of all who love and serve.
- Say aloud:
May the Power of the one Life pour through the group of all true servers
May the Love of the one Soul characterise the lives of all who seek to aid the Great Ones
May I/we fulfil my/our part in the one Work through self-forgetfulness, harmlessness, and right speech. Imagine a laboratory where scientific servers are working together in silent concentration, united by their pursuit of a deeper understanding of the nature of the material world and its processes, and by their sense of the beauty of life itself in all its myriad expressions.
-
Crystallography is the study of the atomic or molecular structure of crystals and their chemical properties. In your minds eye imagine a magnificent crystal, with its beauty of form, its colour, radiance and geometrical perfection.
-
Reflect on the livingness, vitality and spirit revealed in crystalline forms and the physical processes of these forms.
-
Ponder the suggestion that If you could really understand the history of a crystal, you would enter into the glory of God.
-
Pause for a moment of alert stillness.
-
Consider all the work (thinking, planning, networking, concrete projects) that will be done during this year to develop the science of crystallography for the years to come. See this work flooded with spiritual energies: light, love, inspiration and blessing. Imagine how crystallographers can and will contribute to the creation of cultures of peace, goodwill and right relations.
Close by using the World Prayer, the Great Invocation, or an affirmation of your choice.
From the point of Light within the Mind of God
Let light stream forth into human minds.
Let Light descend on Earth.From the point of Love within the Heart of God
Let love stream forth into human hearts.
May the Coming One return to Earth.From the centre where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide all little human wills
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.From the centre which we call the human race
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out.
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth
