The Fifth Dimension by Vera Stanley Adler

So, firstly let those of us who would rebuild bring joy, the soul radiation, into our environment. This must be the foundation of our edifice.

Secondly, let us bring unity. Let us find each other. Let us link up, and pool our resources of inspiration, wisdom, strength, purpose and conviction. We shall soon discover that we are sounding a note strong enough to rally both the seen and unseen to endeavour. This endeavor will be nothing less, in the last analysis, than to prepare the way for the "Second Coming", to give that particular offering which will enable the "Kingdom of Heaven" to emerge on earth. Those are no longer beautiful and meaningless words-in these chapters we have filled in the picture, and brought them to life.

Thirdly, let us be practical. We have the blue-print before us. We see that it is planned upon the law of synthesis, the blending of all facets and activities of life, the formation of groups, each representing all-round complete links with human living. There can no longer be purely scientific groups, or occult groups, or political groups or artistic groups. Each group must possess a channel and a link to all of these. The structure for the new civilisation must be planned by such integrated representative groups as these. This is the quickest and the only way to world liberation. Potential members of these groups move among us today. They must be recognized and linked together. The "army of the new dispensation" must be mobilised. Remember that war and its propaganda is the "vice" side of an equally strong complimentary virtue, the virtue of mobilised faith and light, the propaganda of wisdom, the force of love, and the power of high endeavor, all of which becomes irresistible if allied to the strength of plan purpose and organization.

Fourthly, comes organisation. Let us not fear it. From Deity downwards the whole universe if thoroughly organised, the keynote being always the keeping of balance between all facets of existence, a balance, however, in which one aspect always slightly predominates. In the atom the predominating side is that of "positive electricity". In human living it must also be "positive electricity" which is in reality the reflection of the spiritual element. It is to be hoped that when pioneer spirits are linked together in this way they will lay the foundations of future group-work, building up a central radiation and a plan of procedure and collaboration, so that these fool-proof projects for world order throughout all branches of living, will be steadily brought into being.

When in this manner the advanced intellectuals of the world come together to meditate in unison, what power and what inspiration will be released, what vision will be experienced, and what work will be achieved! The human family as a whole will have achieved an integrated intellect!

The human being depends upon his mind for rational and successful living. The entire human family is also one being-but it is still scatterbrained. Our lunatic world must have a collective mind, sufficiently powerful to influence it, before madness can end.

The task that lies ahead for those who will embrace it is to

GIVE THE WORLD A MIND!
