Title: Zechariah and the Secret of the Oil.
“Now every one of us, who comes to the point where we’re willing to give up our mental knowledge of Truth, receives what may be called an anointing.” Herb Fitch 4th Dimension 16A
Secret Oil is a radio talk show with the title Zechariah and the Secret of the Oil.
Secret Oil:
Hostess Lisa Winton and Swami Jayananda will talk about chapter 4 in Zechariah and the symbolism of oil in the bible as the pouring of Divine Truth in consciousness. Listen as they explore the teaching of Herb Fitch class 16A The Fourth Dimension Series from the Mount of Olives. In this show they will discuss the symbolism of the infrastructure of the Infinite Spiritual Body as the Kriya Yoga Chakra system. Welcome to the Voice of Yoga; we are talking consciousness! Join the Kriya Yoga Spiritual Advance to get the Light in your soul and be anointed by being an instrument of Divine Truth.
Notes:
- In this model the oil is a symbol for Spiritual Light and the pouring of oil is the revealing of the Light of Spiritual Truth on the mental/material world of energy. The Spirit of Divine Truth Itself is accepted as the Presence, the Life, and the Identity of your own Being. In this class Herb mentions 3 degrees in development (1. Good human, 2. develop intelligent problem solving mind, 3. Surrender the human mind for the Divine Mind. Which is very similar to the 3 degrees Mary Baker Eddy writes about in S&H 115-116; 1st Degree: Depravity – Physical; 2nd Degree Evil beliefs disappearing – Moral; 3rd Degree: Understanding – Spiritual. Also, the three phases in human development taught in Kriya Yoga 1. physical: unconscious awareness, 2. mental: self conscious awareness, and 3. Spiritual: super conscious awareness. Secret Oil.
- A better use of mortal mind: “Now, on our way to discovering our own inadequacies, one of our major problems has been that we have relied upon human wisdom. There was always my finger in the pie, and in so doing we had used the mind, not as an instrument to receive the Father, but as a thinking, creative, even worrying mind, a mind that was going to find solutions; and we discover that trap, that mind which wants to find solutions is not your mind.”
- The meaning of the term “anointing” in the bible: “Now every one of us, who comes to the point where we’re willing to give up our mental knowledge of Truth, receives what may be called an anointing.” With Secret Oil.
- Reading Zechariah 4: A description of the Infinite Spiritual Body, Versus 2&3 “What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof: And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof. So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?” A little more on the Olive Trees versus 11to 14 Secret Oil.
“Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?
And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?
And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.” - Using symbolism as a map in consciousness to eliminate the guesswork of healing. “The two anointed ones that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.” And therein is our clue to what we are striving to do. Our subject is oil, the symbol of something else: wherever you have found a problem, you have lacked that oil. Wherever some inner substance has come to dissolve the problem, it has been that oil; but hit or miss, getting it by random, by accident, has to be substituted now by knowing where the oil is, what it is, and how you open the Soul center to let it flow.”
- A little further on he says, “The Oil is the spiritual Substance which forms the body of the Soul.” The Physical body is the manifestation of the mortal mind and the body of the Soul is the manifestation of the Divine Mind. It is found in consciousness but working with the idea what surrounds us is within us we us the Zodiac and personal Planets to give us the astral image for the Spirit Body which is invisible and intangible to material sense.
- In development we see the effortful work of concentration becomes the effortless flow state of meditation. The first two degrees are human will but the third degree is the acceptance of the Divine Will as the only Will, the only Life there is. As Herb said, “that the Oil of the incorporeal body, that Oil which forms the Substance of your eternal body, can never flow into a human being. To be awake to Christ and dead to self becomes the way in which the Soul center opens to express the divine Oil, which takes us into the transitional experience.
- Explain the meaning of: “Her life was lived external to her body. She knew the meaning of omnipresent Spirit. The disciples did not.”
