THE SHINHOTH COSMIC RAY: THE CREATIVE RAY
The Shinhoth Ray, The Golden Creative Ray, is one of the Greatest of all Cosmic Rays .
It works through all the others, as the Creative Essences are necessary to each Ray before they can act in their fullness.
It is generated in The GREAT TOWERS OF THE FIFTH SOLAR PLANE, and before it leaves those Towers, is impregnated by Twelve Glances from the Silver Ray.
The Golden Ray then falls as Golden rain upon the Universes and sinks as does rain into the necessary parts.
This Ray acts upon every type of life, human, plant and animal.
In human life the Creative Ray places a tiny Golden Drop within the womb of an Earth mother, at conception; in fact, IT IS THE ACTION OF THE RAY WHICH CAUSES CONCEPTION. * It unites the fertile parts of the male and female plasm.
The Golden Ray, too, causes (as you have been told before) the LIFE part of plant life.
The Ray acts upon the brain of humans, with an inevitable outflow of invention, knowledge, creative hand-work, and so on.
Its action is of an arrow-headed shape.
It leaves the 5th Plane in arrow-like darts-144 of them, and as the head of the “arrow” touches upon a planet it breaks up into myriads of shining Golden Drops, and then is helped by the 9th Ray to magnetise itself into the required positions.
For instance, it becomes apparent to those on the 5th Plane that there is a germ of an idea working in the brain of a human, but the germ needs fertilisation.
The Ray is directed upon the cranium of this person, where it “breaks” and a fragment of the Golden Essence sinks in to the brain, contacting the seed of thought or idea and causing it to glow with the flow of life, whereas it had slept previously.
The idea in the brain is born into fullness, and the result is a fresh invention given to the world.
The plant life I have already spoken of to you.
The human life is the greatest field for the Golden Ray.
The Ray was used extensively in Yanini at the birth by breath.
It is used now in your grosser form of birth.
But cannot act in its fullness upon Erath birth, on account of the barrier of PAIN.
Try, my little ones, to see with me the SHINHOTH RAY in action on an Erath birth.
THE INFINITELY BEAUTEOUS AM sees fit to send a soul to manifest in human form.
The PARENTS ARE CHOSEN WITH CARE, CHIEFLY FOR THEIR RECEPTIVITY TO THE GOLDEN RAY.
Until the physical action takes place, which opens the door for the waiting soul, it hovers in the aura of the would-be parents, awaiting the moment to enter.
At the critical moment of conception, the Golden Ray pierces the womb of the mother, making a PATHWAY OF LIGHT for the little feet of the waiting soul.
Then the animating part enters the ovum, and the pre-natal state begins.
Do not forget, an atom of the Golden Rain is in the tiny child by now, causing bodily growth to begin.
And at that period of pregnancy, known as “the quickening”, the Ray is in action again, in double force, developing the separated personality of the child, which is already in formation.
Then at the actual birth, the Ray is poured in triple degree
upon both child and mother, but -mark this well-that
after the first fours hours of labour, the Ray ceases to act; it cannot
penetrate pain.
I have dwelt in a fulsome manner upon birth, but it is necessary, as it is the greatest of the human functions upon which the Ray acts.
Now I shall turn to Spirit.
The Golden Ray is most active in Spirit life.
All the time, in the different planes, great creative activity goes on. Colleges, laboratories, hospitals, music, all are studied and analysed, all seek to inspire some mortal to reproduce the IDEAS BORN OF SPIRIT.
New work is ever in progress, as the SHINOTH RAY can act in its fullness upon Spirit matter.
You would be amazed if I were to tell you of the abundance of new ideas there are in Spirit, of the endless chain of scientific discoveries, of the new operations performed in hospitals. But I shall not deal with them now.
The tiny ones are also under a diluted form of the GOLDEN RAIN from the Ray; those tinies in Spirit life; it enables them to create their little gardens, to carve and weave toys for themselves, to play with coloured eddies of ether which abound in THE LANDS OF THE LITTLE ONES.
They weave these coloured eddies into ribbons and plait them in their silken hair.
The Golden Ray is gentle and beneficent in action, yet it is one of the Cosmic Essences which leaves the greatest mark upon mankind.
All beautiful objects are under its protection.
All works of art, all wonderful music, all colour, for it is interblended with the 11th Ray of Art Music and Colour.
All smiles and laughs of babies, all caresses of lovers, all come under the guidance of the 5th Ray. It is emblazoned with the Silver of Love, it scintillates with the Breath of Jesias, and it lies prostrate in action before THE FEET OF ITS CREATOR, THE GREATEST CREATIVE ARTIST IN THE UNIVERSES.
It is golden, it is silver, it is dimmed, yet it shines.
It is piercing in its activity, yet as the warm rain. In its facets lie all the Cosmic Essences and Colours.
I shall return on Monday. I bless you.

can be no such thing as an “unwanted” child; so-called “illegitimacy” is
man-made and erroneous. Refer Chapter 29
