Diary 1963 - Murshid Sam's Living Stream

Diaries 1963-2The same thing is true of Indian teachings excepting that with the Indian teachings I am notunder an agreement to keep anything as a secret and sacred trust. And this very permission to sharecosmic wisdom has been even more of a protection because people do not believe I have it—at leastnot until last night. The only other person in the same position is Judith Tyberg and I am a littleafraid of calling on Judith. Why? Because she will give me a feast; I am overloaded and she is overloadedand she will give me a feast. And people don’t believe her either. But Walt Baptists asked the“question” just like Percival did at the Holy Grail, so gradually I filter down the Yoga systems like Idid the other night with the Hathavada poetry.I am not a theosophist yet during this life there has been enough experience to validate (a)theosophical masters; (b) the akashic records—e.g. the poetry read. I have no assurance it is not recollectionof former life wisdom. The yogis end with the Yantra with is preserved only in Tibetan butnow the Yantra has coalesced with the Sufism in delineating new forms of dance patterns and bodymovements.That this may be in the atmosphere or ether is clearly shown by examining on one hand thepoetry and art of Paul Reps and in another direction the drama and poetry of Mrs. Wishar-Dignanin this city. Reps has been after me with a short-word type of literature which I have not been ableto deliver, but in the dance this is being done. And yet the Yantra-Sufic art form will be in the end sovoluminous I dare not put it to writing. Actually the original beginning came from a women whomReps introduced me to who has disappeared from our lives. Like most American women she is utterlyunable to understand the victory-alliance-surrender pattern as above.With the deliverance of the Inayat-Khan material there were some reminder notes. It is notgenerally known that Rabia Martin was an occult initiate and unfortunately nearly all her materialswere destroyed in a fire and the rest disposed by her daughter who had no deep knowledge. ButRabia did give me the Egyptian initiation. When I was in Cairo I came to the initiatory pyramidswhich are not at Giza and are very, very much older. This was confirmed by the Sufis but not by anthropologists,linguists and least of all the hyperbolic, metaphysical, pseudo theosophists. I found ata glance what Brunton did not find in the Great Pyramid and again, it remains a “secret” because ofso much pseudo-knowledge which has been uncritically accepted. Brunton did not have even highpsychic experiences at Cheops.The European esotericism preserved some wisdom which can be traced all the way to theGreeks and again we are aborted, because we do not recognize that there is a universal earth-waterfire-air-etherexplanation which can be made of the whole universe, even now. And while we talkabout the Greeks being superstitious, we can read in the paper today of the rise of new epidemicsand the very high degree of illness latent in our leading physicians. The dictum, “Physician, healthyself,” does not apply. Even Red China is far, far ahead of us in the treatment of cancer and polio.
