Telepathy and the Etheric Vehicle - The Growth of Telepathic Rapport
Disciples must occupy themselves increasingly with right understanding, right designation and right definition of the new science of telepathy. Mental comprehension and mental sympathy will make true interplay possible, and this will bridge between the old way of understanding thought through the medium of the spoken or written word (embodying that thought as the individual thinker seeks to convey it) and the future stage of immediate response to [34] thought, unlimited by speech or other medium of expression. Disciples will endeavor to work in both ways, and the medium of normal human relations and that of supernormal subjective relations must be studied by them and expressed by them. In this way the time of bridging and the period of transition can be spanned. It will take about five hundred years for the race to become normally telepathic, and when I say normally I mean consciously. This bridging work must be carried forward by disciples in three ways:
  1. By an endeavor to understand:
    1. The medium of transmission.
    2. The method of transmission.
    3. The manner of reception.
    4. The mode of interrelated activity.
  2. By the cultivation of sensitive reactions to each other and to the other human units with whom the lot of the disciples may be cast. This involves:
    1. Sensitive physical reaction, via the centers, to the forces emanating from the centers of those with whom the disciples are associated. Particularly should the sensitivity of the ajna center be developed.
    2. Sensitivity to the state of feeling or to the emotional reactions of those around. This is done through the development of compassion and of sympathy, plus that detachment which will enable one to take right action.
    3. Sensitivity to the thoughts of others through mental rapport with them upon the plane of mind. [35]
  3. By all these done also in group formation as well as individually. All the activities mentioned above must constitute group activity.

In these three ways the vehicle of the personality can be so conditioned that it can become a sensitive receiving apparatus. When, however, soul consciousness is achieved or developing, then this triple instrument is superseded by the intuitional receptivity of the soul - whose inclusiveness is absolute and who is at-one with the soul in all forms.

Those disciples who are working along this line are the nurturers of the seed of the future intuitional civilization, which will come to its full glory in the Aquarian Age. The intuition is the infallibly sensitive agent, latent in every human being; it is based, as you know, upon direct knowledge, unimpeded by any instrument normally functioning in the three worlds. Of this intuitional future age, Christ is the Seed Man, for "He knew what was in man." Today, a group or a unit of groups can be the nurturers of the seed of the intuition; the cultivation of sensitivity to telepathic impression is one of the most potent agencies in developing the coming use of the intuitive faculty.

The truly telepathic man is the man who is responsive to impressions coming to him from all forms of life in the three worlds, but he is also equally responsive to impressions coming to him from the world of souls and the world of the intuition. It is the development of the telepathic instinct which will eventually make a man a master in the three worlds, and also in the five worlds of human and superhuman development. By a process of withdrawal (of occult abstraction) and of concentration upon the telepathic cult, the whole science of telepathy (as a seed of a future racial potency) can be developed and understood. This is a process now going forward, and it is going on in two ways: [36] through the medium of telepathic groups and of telepathic people, and through the medium of exoteric scientific investigation. The building of the thought-form which will accustom the race to the idea of telepathic work is proceeding apace, and the seed of this development is becoming very vital and powerful and germinating with real rapidity. It is, in the last analysis, the seed of MASTERHOOD. [37
