INTRODUCTION
We have been requested by members to write about The Universal Mind and how to "link up" to this infinite source of Occult power. Consider this as a sort of "tutorial" to better understand The Universal Mind.
ETHER AND THE UNIVERSAL MIND
Before we can expand more on the Universal Mind though, we will have to explain a key factor concerning it: Ether. You all have either read or heard about Ether before, and others are already working with Ether - consciously or subconsciously.
There are many neat theoretical explanations about Ether, however these theoretical explanations don't say much - it's exactly what it is: armchair theory. Even though a few of these theories are correct, they merely skim the surface of it - you have to work with it in order to fully understand it.
Here's an excerpt from the elusive "Hexagradior" concerning Ether, which we find a very comprehensive piece on Ether:
Quote:
"Ether subtilis totius orbis (Fine ether of Entire Universe)
First of all things you must know that entire universe consists of and is emerged into a fine substance that is called "ETHER SUBTILIS TOTIUS ORBIS" or "Fine Ether of the Entire Universe". Just like fishes are emerged into water and surrounded by it, and as we are emerged in the air and surrounded by the air we breathe, there is another finer substance that connects us all. All Beings and all things in existence are connected to eachother by this fine ether. But it does not only surround us. It is within us as well, it is part of us.
"Angels" have seen us and our world in the moment of our creation, and they know what we are. They know we are more than just clay that came alive, and that there is more to our world than human eyes can see. They gave us the knowledge about the magick and the ether. Matter contains ether and we are made of matter. And magic works through this ether because it connects and binds us and nobody or nothing is exempt from this.
In order to use magic, you must know how to work through ether. The ether will take your magic to it's destination. Many people try some magic. Some have success, some nothing but failures. And even stranger yet, to some people magic succeeds once, and fails another time. No amount of repaeating and casting of spells anew gives any result nor any reason why it does not succeed. Even those experienced in casting spells sometimes fail, not knowing why.
How is it that a skill of magic is so changeable, and succeeds for some and not for others? And how is it that even to same person it sometimes succeed and sometimes not? It is because of a secret that only a few know. There is no ear in this world which has not heard of the magic. Most people think it is enough to simply speak secret words, and magic will happen by itself. Such people are confused when they learn some words or entire rituals, then speak them and nothing happens.
They do not know there is a secret. A knowledge that teaches how the spells are cast and without that knowledge, their magic is neither certain nor strong. Magic is carried by ether alone or by spirits and ether. But those that did not send their magic in the ether and did not make a call that spirits can hear and understand, they cannot expect success in their magic operation. ... Everyone can learn to feel and use ether, but to some it comes naturally without even knowing they are using it. That is why their magic sometimes succeeds and sometimes fail."
So by this you know that ether is everywhere and is the first key component in succeding with the Universal Mind.

THE UNIVERSAL MIND
By the ether explained in the previous chapter, everything and everyone is connected with eachother. That means that as you are reading this, you share a common etherical link with all the others reading this thread as well etc. You share a link with all other humans - alive or dead, you share a link with all life here in this realm - plants, animals etc. You share a link with all Entities in all the worlds. You share a link with everything and everything shares a link with you. Vast, isn't it?
It's like a spider-web where everything in existence is part of this infinite link-up. Now, imagine the possibilities if you know how to consciously tap into this magnificent force. There is nothing which cannot be accomplished using this method.
So, what does the Universal Mind have to do with ether? Simple. If your thought (will, intent) is not directed properly, it will not travel within the ether to become a reality. The more clear it is, the better. The more will you put into it, the better. The more time you spend on it, the better etc etc etc. The Universal Mind can be likened as a part of your subconscious that's linked up with everything in existence.
An excelent example would be self-created words of power. We can create a word of power here, and give it to one of you to chant daily. You do so and you get results. But why? You don't even know what that word means, etc. Yet again - simple. We'll explain this in the way it will travel:
1) We create a word of power and consciously/subconsciously imbue it with it's purpose ie intent. Now the purpose of that word is imprinted in the ether which surrounds it.
2) We send this word to someone, not telling them what it means or what it does. We tell that person to chant this word daily.
3) As the person chants this word - their subconscious picks up the purpose of the word via the link we share with that person ie the Universal Mind. They do this without even realising this.
4) The etherical imprints of purpose left on the word attaches itself to the etherical body of the person who is chanting it. This affects their etherical self. Which in turn affects their astral self - finally affecting their physical self.
5) Results manifest physically.

We're not going to elaborate more on this - as we've already told you all more than enough to put it in working. Now it's up to you as a practitioner to figure out the rest. We know you can do it.
Once you realise how to consciously tap into the Universal Mind - the Universe is literally at your fingertips - as the possibilities are truely endless.
If you have any questions regarding this - feel free to ask. We will answer to the best of our abilities. Smiling
