Discussions of the Archangels and the Laws.

Your Super Powers – Tzadkiel

Remember, the Archangels are actually powers within you, activated by invocation and intention, which assist you in creating your world, enhancing it and moving on to the next creation.

These super powers allow you to create in multiple realms in this universe.

Again, the formula is:

The Archangel invokes the power of the law, working with the principle, to produce the attribute.

Tzadkiel, pronounced TZ-ADD-KEE-EL, invokes the power of the Law of Reproduction, working with the principle of Cohesion, producing Mercy, Love and Compassion. Tzadkiel means “To know by intuition”.

Traditional Invocation: Tzadkiel, Tzadkiel, Tzadkiel. Mercy, Love & Compassion are infinitely reproduced.

Discussion: Teacher Sheariam said “Reproduction” here means more than procreation. It means that everything repeats itself and everything that is produced has the nature of and is linked to its producer. Through the intuitive faculties, you are forever intrinsically linked with that which created you. Every thing that you create is linked with you in the same way. But you have no more control over that which you create than your own creator has over you. This is why each idea initiated must be pure, for it will reproduce itself limitlessly. But it will never lose contact with that which originally created it.

An idea is simply a new arrangement of the components. This is the miracle-working agent. So long as you believe in things the way they now exist, so long as you accept things as they now exist, so long as your courage fails in creating the new, so long as you fail to practice patience, you will remain without miracles.

By the Law of Reproduction, impatience breeds impatience. You get in your own way. Fear breeds more fear. This is what is meant by becoming attuned, by getting in the flow, by thinking right thoughts, for your thoughts reproduce and hang together and cling to you. The positive Attribute is Mercy and Love. When your thoughts, your deeds and actions are clothed in Mercy and Love, you will be healthy, happy, and prosperous, for you could be no other way.

My favorite invocation for Tzadkiel is: With Tzadkiel I joyfully declare, “Every thought is loving and creates what I want.

Discussion: This invocation format states the intention of the invocation prior to the invocation and affirms an attitude of joy. Joy is a necessary component of the enthusiasm that is part of the fuel of creation.

If my every thought is loving, my world will be full of love and everyone benefits. Reproduce that!

Love is simply joyful acceptance and joyful giving, you need both. It’s all additive, nothing is lost. What you put out stays and grows. Any new places you can start appreciating and giving? It all helps.

Your Super Powers – Raphael

As you read in Your Super Powers – Khamael, the Archangels are actually powers within you, activated by invocation and intention, which assist you in creating your world, enhancing it and moving on to the next creation.

These super powers allow you to create in multiple realms in this universe.

Again, the formula is:

The Archangel invokes the power of the law, working with the principle, to produce the attribute.

Raphael, pronounced RAH-FAH-EL, invokes the power of the Law of Process, working with the principle of Differentiation, producing Beauty.

Traditional Invocation: Raphael, Raphael, Raphael. Divine Process perfects, fulfills, and completes what I know.

Discussion: The Divine Process is one in which things evolve to become complete and unique, differentiated from other similar things. Teacher Sheariam said: “While everything IS, there is a becoming, a process. It is through this process that things become different from each other. And beauty lives.”

My favorite invocation for Raphael is: With Raphael I joyfully declare, “I realize Beauty in every moment.” Raphael, Raphael, Raphael.

Discussion: As with the invocation for Khamael, this format states the intention of the invocation prior to the invocation and affirms an attitude of joy. Joy is a necessary component of the enthusiasm that is part of the fuel of creation.

“I realize Beauty in every moment.” means I make it real in my consciousness and my life. I move my awareness to where it exists in its completeness. Expect and look for beauty, wholeness, uniqueness and you’ll find it. Like snowflakes and leaves, Beauty is always there by virtue of the universe unfolding moment by moment, yet being fully complete in nature. And in the creative process you view and focus on the details within the generalities and do what it takes to expand and enhance your creation to make it unique and useful. Allow things to morph as they develop. It’s their nature. Provide a nurturing environment and guidance. Let nature do the rest.

Your Super Powers – Ratziel

As you read in Your Super Powers – Khamael, the Archangels are actually powers within you, activated by invocation and intention, which assist you in creating your world, enhancing it and moving on to the next creation.

These super powers allow you to create in multiple realms in this universe.  Again, the formula is:

The Archangel invokes the power of the law, working with the principle, to produce the attribute.

Ratziel, pronounced RAT-ZEE-EL, invokes the power of the Law of Ideation, working with the principle of Migration, producing Wisdom.

Traditional Invocation: Ratziel, Ratziel, Ratziel. Divine Ideation provides what we are to learn.

Discussion: The teachers said: “…as volition propels divine thought into objective manifestation, the law is established that this universe shall exist. So in the way of a pattern, the Law of Ideation says to you that before anything else can happen for you or with you or by you, you must be in compliance with the law of idea. Divine thought establishes the divine plan. Your thought establishes your plan.” (Saturday #12). So Ideation is the formulation of a plan or pattern, or creation of a seed, if you will. And, of course, if you plant a seed in an appropriate environment and give it water and nourishment, it will reproduce according to the DNA of the seed. So if you want something to manifest, document its characteristics and the environment where it can flourish, move to / create that environment, make your plan and put it in effect. Depending on your attunement, the amount you do and the amount nature does will vary.

My favorite invocation for Ratziel is: With Ratziel I joyfully declare, “Source guides my choice.” Ratziel, Ratziel, Ratziel.

Discussion: As with the invocation for Khamael, this format states the intention of the invocation prior to the invocation and affirms an attitude of joy. Joy is a necessary component of the enthusiasm that is part of the fuel of creation.

Do birds have to think about flying south for the winter? No, they’re guided by Source. That’s the principle of Migration. If we know our plan and our priorities and watch for cues in the world around us and listen for ideas that pop up moment by moment, we can be guided toward our goal and minimize effort.

Time to do some planning?

Your Super Powers – Gabriel

As you read in Your Super Powers – Khamael, the Archangels are actually powers within you, activated by invocation and intention, which assist you in creating your world, enhancing it and moving on to the next creation.

These super powers allow you to create in multiple realms in this universe.

Again, the formula is:

The Archangel invokes the power of the law, working with the principle, to produce the attribute.

Gabriel, pronounced GAH-BREE-EL, invokes the power of the Law of I Will, working with the principle of Radiant Energy and Truth, producing Eternality.

Traditional Invocation: Gabriel, Gabriel, Gabriel. I Will Divine Will.

Discussion: Remember, any statement using the word “I” refers to “The Creator”, the awarer within, not that personality that you were taught was “you”. With this invocation you are declaring your resonance with all power. It’s in your spiritual DNA, i.e. characteristics inherited from our Creator. As Jesus said, “My Father and I are one.”

So what is Divine Will? It’s very simple. According to The Teachers, the Divine wants and wills the enhancement of all creation. In the same way parents want their children to be well, happy, creative, self-sufficient and to exceed their own accomplishments, the “The Creator” wants all creation to enhance itself. Part of our spiritual DNA, is the ability to “self-modulate”, as The Teachers called it, the ability to change ourselves, to add to what we are, to evolve humanity through our choice of attitude and our creative and loving actions. Be all you can be and more, with enthusiasm and joy. So when you say “I Will Divine Will”, you are willing the enhancement of all creation, thinking and acting on a global level, so to speak.

My favorite invocation for Gabriel is: With Gabriel I joyfully declare, “I will what I want.” Gabriel, Gabriel, Gabriel.

Discussion: As with the invocation for Khamael, this format states the intention of the invocation prior to the invocation and affirms an attitude of joy. Joy is a necessary component of the enthusiasm that is part of the fuel of creation. I already talked about “I will” and taking the Divine perspective. Here I use the “want’ as an affirmation of being in a place of power, not of lack. The Teachers talk about the evolution process as going through a series of phases at each evolutionary level, and that we go through a consciousness of need on the way to manifesting our wants.

Ready to take the reins and say “Giddyup”?

Your Super Powers – Khamael

If you read the post On Angels and Archangels, you learned that archangels don’t have wings. In fact, Archangels are our own Super Powers, part of our nature as humans, and they are activated by our intention and invocation.

These super powers allow you to create in multiple realms in this universe.

Here’s the formula:

The Archangel invokes the power of the law, working with the principle, to produce the attribute.

Khamael, pronounced KAH-MAY-EL, invokes the power of the Law of I AM, working with the principle of Divine Fire, producing Disciplined Forcefulness.

Traditional Invocation: Khamael, Khamael, Khamael. I AM Disciplined Forcefulness of the Absolute.

Discussion: The Absolute, in and of itself, is an all-inclusive whole beingness, including undisciplined forcefulness, i.e. pure unapplied potential with no distinction or recognizable characteristic, and disciplined forcefulness, i.e. creative ability, ability to discipline creative force to produce a recognizable result.

My favorite: With Khamael I joyfully declare, “I AM and I can.” Khamael, Khamael, Khamael.

Discussion: This format states the intention of the invocation prior to the invocation. Secondly, it affirms the attitude of joy versus the soberness that often accompanies ritual. It also describes a state of self awareness and pure potential. When you say “I”, remember that the “I” is not the small you. It’s the creator in you. “I am” and “I Will” are Cosmic Laws, which basically means that they are more fundamental, higher in the hierarchy of forces. Without these two, nothing would exist and nothing would happen. They are like axioms, underlying agreements that are the basis thought. First of all, something has to exist for anything to make sense, right? Secondly if there were no possibility of anything happening, how would you explain all this?

We could allude to the two aspects of Siva/All That Is/Divinity and say that 1) “I am” is the passive or transcendent aspect and 2) “I can” is the active or manifest aspect, because it suggests something other than pure potential, i.e. I can do what? The Temple Teachers call it “The Omega Point” and my Guru called it the “Pinnacle of Creation”.

Because we are all divine, we are all creators, at a new pinnacle of creation each moment, and beyond each point is manifestation in its entirety, potential and becomingness, simultaneously in every direction. It reminds me of those fireworks that send out multiple lights and those lights send out multiple lights, or a tree.

So, bottom line, “Khamael” resonates with the power to exist, volition in general, and the potential to create. It’s the 1st switch that has to be flipped. Ready to go?

You Are a TV Set

For a moment, think of yourself as a television set. You have capacity for many channels and have no preference for any particular channel or program. You simply do your job and show whatever is sent to your screen. You are not attached. You are content to be of service. The story does not affect you emotionally, but unlike a regular TV set, you can learn from the information presented. You are truly dispassionate and objective.

Now, consider a video game on this television set. Let your awareness switch and now you are the controller of the video game, you are the driver of a very sophisticated robot aware of its environment. It can do anything a human can do and even morph itself to be and act like an ant. You have complete control of this robot and can generate an environment that persists around it. The purpose of this robot is to improve the story, to add value, your purpose is to lead the robot through experiences that benefit what is, in some way.

This robot manifests in multiple dimensions simultaneously. It has awareness of a physical environment where things appear to manifest slowly and dissolve slowly, and awareness of a less solid environment where things change immediately according to one’s intention and imagination, and dissolve when no longer needed.

Our challenge now is to use our imaginations to create a universe we would want to live in by describing it. We’ll describe it by declaring our divine attributes. Start with awareness and potential.

Draw in creative energy with your in-breath and create awareness and potential by exhaling and invoking Khamael (KHA-MAY-EL 3 times), “I am disciplined forcefulness of the Absolute. And so it is.” This is now an aspect of our universe: You are aware and create anything.

Now draw in creative energy with your in-breath and create intentional control by exhaling and invoking Gabriel (GAH-BREE-EL 3 times), “I will Divine will. And so it is.” This is now a second aspect of our universe: Creations conform to Divine purpose, that is, to benefit the whole.

Now draw in creative energy with your in-breath and create love and compassion everywhere by invoking Tzadkiel (TZAD-KEE-EL 3 times), “Mercy, Love and Compassion are infinitely reproduced. And so it is.” This is now a third aspect of our universe: Every thought and action is loving.

Now let’s take this skeleton of a universe and make it available for all to experience and build from.

Would you like to live in a wonderful world? Play the video game and enhance your inner world and the outer world.

On Angels and Archangels

One thing you’re guaranteed with the Temple Teachings, new interpretations of words. In some cases it’s because the English language is lacking in words to fully express multi-dimensional concepts.

Consider The Teachers’ definitions of angels and archangels. The Teachers tell us that an archangel is a natural power already within us which we can turn on and wield through intention and invocation, and that an angel is a deliverer of that power. An angel can take any form to accomplish the assigned task.

“An archangel is like electricity, an angel is like a lamp and light is the accomplished mission of the angel.” (Session #123 – August 13, 1989)

What are the powers the archangels represent? The fundamental attributes of the laws of this universe and cosmos.

1) Existence and Ability, governed by the Law of I AM. Archangel: Khamael (KAH-MAY-EL)

2) Creativity and Persistence, governed by the Law of I WILL. Archangel: Gabriel (GAH-BREE-EL)

3) Wisdom, governed by the Law of Ideation. Archangel: Ratziel (RAT-ZEE-EL)

4) Beauty, governed by the Law of Process. Archangel: Rafael (RAH-FAH-EL)

5) Mercy, Love and Compassion, governed by the Law of Reproduction. Archangel: Tzadkiel (TZAD-KEE-EL)

6) Knowledge, governed by the Law of Harmony. Archangel: Sandalphon (SAHN-DAHL-FONE)

7) Understanding, governed by the Law of Illusion. Archangel: Tzaphkiel (TZOFF-KEE-EL)

8) Feeling and Desire, governed by the Law of Dominance. Archangel: Michael (MICK-KAY-EL)

9) Mastery, governed by the Law of Relinquishment. Archangel: Haniel (HAH-NEE-EL)

We are told to invoke in triplets, contemplating the attributes: 3 Khamael, 3 Gabriel, then 3 of one of the other archangels, taking a full breath to pronounce each name each time. The sounds of the names resonate with and enable the corresponding attribute.

Want to experience and embody the attributes? Tune in by invoking the archangels.
