—[m]—Order (3rd principle) is only practical where Cohesion (4th principle) and Transmutation (6th principle) have combined to make things hold together and to transform them from a chaotic state to an orderly state. Remember then, that you can have Order only where you have first established Cohesion and Transmutation in principle.
—[n]—If your life is discordant or inharmonious, look well to this. On the other hand Cohesion (4th principle) looks upward to Order (3rd principle) and over to Rejection or Discard (5th principle) for its basis. We gain those qualities that make for strength only if we have Order in our mind and can Discard in our heart. They must be INSIDE, and not the result of any command or fear thought from the outside. They must be LAW and not some man made laws.
—[p]—Physical Body (4) to be at its best, must study and submit to the Spirit of God (3) and Morality (5). This does not always means suppression, but may mean regulation, to bring about Order in time, place and companionship, that none shall be injured by your indulgences and that all shall be helped.
"Nothing is wrong that does not harm
Your trusting fellow-man;
Nothing is right that does not help
And lift a human hand."
RELATIVITY ON THE CHART
—[q]—Morality (5) can manifest itself to our consciousness only through the right application of that inner Creative Christ Consciousness (2) through the ideas, motives and acts of the Physical Body (4). A Morality that depends upon someone's else opinion or commands, or upon ANY book or outside influence for its force, is not a Morality at all It is a mere regulation. He is truly strong who is strong from within, from motives of his very own.
—[r]—Conformably to this, we find that Rejection (Discard) the 5th principle must reveal itself to us through some Choice (2nd principle). To continue the principle of Rejection or Discard, we must have and maintain Cohesion (4th principle). We must stand by our Choice, we must stay together with those involved in that Choice and continue the Rejection or Discard of those who are thus put in opposition.
—[s]—The Divinity of Parenthood (6) is subject to the great law as revealed through the Father-Mother God (1) and the Spirit of God (3). Through this infinite combination man reaches his First Omnipotent Cross or Mark (the F, O and X of previous lessons). Man is here first brought into the real divinity of himself, by going outside of himself to find himself.
—[t]—Transmutation (6th principle) takes its strength and power also from the combination of Force (1st principle) and Order (3rd principle). We can only Transmute things around us by using both Force and Order. To use Force alone might make more confusion by its destructive power. We must proceed in an ORDERLY manner. Any new system, whether politics, art or personal reform, must have an orderly object and an orderly procedure toward that object, to be a success. "Let all things be done decently and in order." (1 Cor. 14:40.)
