DISCOURSE 15
THE LAW OF ATTRACTION
OF HOMOGENEOUS SPECIES
THE “CREATION-LAW” OF “ATTRACTION”
“Birds of a feather flock together!”
“You can tell a man by the company he keeps!”
We are sure that most people have heard one or both of the above two quotes. In addition, we are equally sure that we all know exactly what they refer to and thus mean. In everyday life this Prime Creation-Law manifests probably most strongly in human relationships and unions, hence our overburdened earth groaning at the seams with over 7 billion humans produced as a result of this great Law of Attraction!
The primary points of human relationships under the immutable aegis of this Divine Law may be read in the 5 Discourses in PART III that necessarily feature the role of women and associated aspects. However, to ensure that we begin to understand the deeper meaning of The law of Attraction of Similar Species, the next short Section will greatly assist that process.
SPIRITUAL QUALITIES AS THE FIRST CONSIDERATION
Now: Because we are inherently imbued with the nature and quality of The Spiritual, the potential to develop the correspondingly more ennobled characteristics of that attribute should be the primary factor that determines to whom or to what we will be naturally attracted. Most people will have probably felt strongly drawn to certain persons for no apparent reason other than a feeling of an especially strong bond.
Sometimes to our great surprise -- though it should not be so under the effect of “The Law of Attraction...” we may even discover that certain meetings quickly produce bonds that are far stronger than those we experience with some members of our own immediate family.
A particular story in the life of Jesus illustrates this fact perfectly. From Matthew 12:48-50, Fenton --- When told that His mother and brothers were waiting to see Him, replied:
“Who is My mother? and who are My brothers?” Then extending His hand in the direction of His Disciples, He said, “Why, those are My mother and My brothers! For whosoever does the will of My Father Who is in Heaven, he is My brother, and sister, and mother!
Spiritual qualities, therefore, should be recognised as the correct thing to strive for in the first instance, even if it means breaking free from the sometimes cloying and selfishly-emotional demands --- and even odious control --- that some within family groups are wont to generate. The present generally low level of spiritual maturity exhibited by human societies today is clearly demonstrated by the fact that, for many people, only race and ethnicity are the main considerations in their relationships with others. This lack of understanding for the deeper and finer qualities ensures that this superficiality places outward appearances such as skin colour, race, physical looks, fashion and religion etc., foremost.
The seemingly never-ending over-emotional marches and protests that our 21st century world has spawned have largely focussed on race and ethnicity as an underlying reason to march to begin with. Spiritual knowledge, particularly the right knowledge of The Law of Rebirth, shows the relative unimportance of such things as a person’s race or nationality. The basis for assessing the worth of a human being can then be made on character alone. The following Biblical quotation probably best encapsulates this. From Matthew 7:18-20, Fenton:
“A useful tree cannot produce bad fruit; nor can a worthless tree produce good fruit. Every tree not producing good fruit will be felled and used as firewood. Reject their produce; for by this you can recognise them.”
FAMILIES AND CHILDREN
As alluded to earlier, the primary aspects of this Section --- as they pertain to “The Law of Attraction...” and as they apply to families and children --- may be found in their fullness in the 5 Discourses in PART III.
For now, however, we need to understand that the ramifications posed by the question of how and why particular souls incarnate into certain family groupings under “The Law of Attraction...” are so far reaching that if humanity were to truly know and live this knowledge, much of society’s ugly side could long have been made non-existent.
Whilst that may seem a very broad statement, an examination of the serious importance of this Divine Law and the equally grave responsibility attached to it should become evident to the open-minded reader, more especially if one is a parent, or wishes to become one. Since procreation is very much the norm rather than the exception, the significance of these sentences should be of primary interest to this group particularly.
Who has not heard the statement at some time, often given as an emotional outburst: “I didn’t ask to be born!” -- or: “I didn’t choose my parents!” Unfortunately, not so! Notwithstanding that reality, it is nevertheless not an uncommon utterance, particularly from the young who may be subject to spiritually-wrong family constraints at the time that natural development calls them to enter the phase of adulthood and independence.
Random selection does not operate here, but under the determination of one’s ‘free will’, The Laws of “Attraction...”, “Reciprocal Action...” and “Spiritual Gravity...” most certainly do. These Prime Laws basically determine the geographical location, the particular family of “lawful choice” and all other circumstances into which one is born, for an act of procreation simply provides an opportunity for individual souls in the “beyond” to incarnate on Earth.
Since there are many souls awaiting such an opportunity, certain precise factors will finally bring the “correct one” to the prospective mother. The kind of soul that eventually incarnates, crucially governed by Spiritual Law, is largely, though not solely, determined by the family environment and connections to the pregnant mother particularly.
Strong similarities between the incoming soul and the mother or other members of the family may also have a bearing on who finally arrives. Or perhaps the prospective soul may have ties to a particular person or group of people that the prospective mother has close connections with. That potential can act as a powerful force of attraction for the souls surrounding her who are awaiting an opportunity to incarnate.
THE INCARNATION OF JESUS INTO THE JEWISH RACE EXPLAINED,
AND THE STILL, AS YET, --- “UNPAID DEBT FOR GOLGOTHA”
Now, under the inviolable outworking of The Divine Laws of Creation --- primarily in this case more focussed on “The Law of Attraction...” --- what we want to enlighten you about at this point is why Jesus, The Son of God, could only have been incarnated into the Jewish race, and not into any other!
For this illumination, we will simply let you read the relevant excerpt/s from the Hand of The Spirit of Truth!
(Reader, part of what you will read there you will have read in a previous Discourse, but in this case, it frames the primary aspect of what this current Discourse is all about! And since the whole thrust of this Work is one of Proclamation to global humanity ------- we all know what that is by now ------- for a primary, directly-resonating part of that is the as-yet: “Unpaid Debt for Golgotha”!)
Therefore: In explaining the precise outworking of the great Laws of Creation, the present segment has direct resonance to the primary purpose of this Work, and that is to “Correct” the too-many errors and distortions of the “big three” of Monotheism.
Since the notion of Jesus as being The Son of God is anathema to Muslims, and similarly the notion of Him as a Messiah equally unacceptable to the Jews, the last group left, the Christians’, do at least place Him correctly in those two Divine Realities. Of course, we know that they got much else about Him and His Mission mostly wrong!
A key connection to the “why” also very necessarily takes in the role of Moses and the Jewish ordeal under the Egyptians. Islam places Moses almost on a pedestal, so this next excerpt from The Grail Message brings fundamental elements of the preparation for the “Attraction” and thus entry of Jesus into the Jewish race all together, hopefully to impact the “big three” of monotheism --- Islam, Christianity, and Judaism!
From The Living Word of The Grail Message!

FATHER, FORGIVE THEM, FOR THEY
KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO!
But not only that! Every soul-stirring event in the earth-life of the Son of God was put into a false light by the one-sidedness of the transmission. But these faults are not only exhibited in Christianity, they are to be found in every religion! -------------------
But the sacred Mission of the Son of God lay in His Word, in bringing the Truth from Luminous Heights in order to show mankind their way to the Light! This had been closed to them up till then, because their spiritual development had previously made it impossible for them to walk on that road! -------------------
The essence of the Divine Message receded far into the background before the personal cult of the Bringer of Truth, which Christ never intended! -----------------------
It was the bringing of this Truth, up till then still unknown, which quite by itself necessitated Christ’s coming upon the earth. Nothing else! For without truly recognising the Will of God in Creation no man can find the road of ascent to the Luminous Realm, much less walk upon it! --------------------------
Thus the right and natural thought completely to separate the earthly sufferings of Christ, as a special happening, from the Divine message occurred to no one! Nor did anyone recognise all the enmity, persecution and torment as the serious and grievous crimes they really were! It is a new and great wrong to gloss over them as a necessity!
Indeed His sufferings and agonising death on the cross deserve the radiant light of highest glory, because the Son of God did not shrink from an evil reception among the tyrannical and revengeful people! This was anticipated after the Fall of Man, but in spite of this He brought His so urgently needed Message of Truth to earth for the sake of the few who were good!
This deed is to be appraised all the higher, because it is actually a question of only a small proportion of mankind who thereby wish to save themselves! -------------------
Let us once again, calmly and clearly, but in broad outline, survey the great evolution of Creation and of man who belongs to it! In so doing observe closely the operation of the Primordial Law of Homogeneous Species, and all it embraces in the way of immutable and necessary consequences in every happening, as I have so often explained! -------------------------------------
But erring humankind brought standstill and confusion into the progress which was necessary. In the midst of this turmoil the Jewish people came under the well-known and oppressive scourge of the Egyptians. Their tribulation and great longing for liberation hastened the maturity of their souls. Thus they outstripped all others spiritually, because this strong emotional upheaval enabled them above all to see themselves as they really were, and also look into the souls of their opponents!
After they had clearly perceived that neither anything earthly nor the keenest cleverness of the intellect could help any longer, whereby they also recognised the emptiness of their own souls, their spiritual eye learned to see more keenly, and gradually there arose at last a conception of the actual Godhead truer and higher than any they had had before! And, stricken with grief, their prayers rose once again with much greater fervour!
Through this the Jewish people were able to become “the chosen people”, who for a period preceded all other people spiritually, because for their time they possessed the purest conception of Divinity, a conception as high as possible considering the existing maturity of the human soul.
Maturity of the spirit, however, must not be confused with knowledge acquired by learning, but you must always bear in mind that being spiritual is the same as having deep inner feeling....
The advanced spiritual maturity of the Jews at that time enabled them to receive through Moses the Will of God clearly expressed in the form of laws, which constituted the greatest treasure and the best and most powerful support for the further development.
Just as world happenings will quite naturally always concentrate only where the maturity is greatest, so it gradually came to focus at that time upon the human race of the Jews, who were increasing in spiritual maturity.
But here again world events must not be confused with earthly world history, which is far removed from actual world events, and which mostly only portrays the effects of the often wrongly applied free will of the human spirit, which in turn always casts many stones into the actual happening, thereby often producing temporary distortions and earthly confusion!
The Jewish people of that time were ahead of the others in their religious cult and therefore stood closest to Truth in their views.
The natural consequence of this was that in accordance with the Law of Reciprocal Action the annunciation of an incarnation out of the Light was bound to come upon this road which, being the most correct, led closest to the proximity of Truth! Through their greater distance from the Truth all the other roads were closed to such a possibility, because they were lost in errors!
Again, in conformity with the Law of Attraction of Homogeneous Species, so absolutely necessary for any activity, it was not possible for a Bringer of Truth from the Light to come to an incarnation by any other road than that which lies closest to the Truth, and which therefore resembles His homogeneity most nearly. Only this provides the necessary hold and attracts, whereas erroneous views repel and directly close the road upon which the Light might come and enter!
The Law of Reciprocal Action and the Law of Homogeneous Species must also operate in this case without fail! The Primordial Laws either open or close a road in their uniform and unswerving effects.
When in the course of time the Jews allowed the intellect to dominate in their religion, breeding sordid place-hunting, the heavy hand of the Roman helped to keep a small group in the right recognition, so that the Word could be fulfilled!
The birth of Christ was a Divine Act of Love for the entire Creation, which was in danger of being undermined by the erring human spirit! ---------------------------
IMANUEL: THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH
And THE SON OF MAN!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Reader: Note the following from The Hand of The LORD!
‘When in the course of time the Jews allowed the intellect to dominate in their religion, breeding sordid place-hunting, the heavy hand of the Roman helped to keep a small group in the right recognition, so that the Word could be fulfilled!’
The Jewish race! Once “the chosen”, but now, not for a very long time --- awaiting --- The as-yet Unpaid Debt for Golgotha!
A better example and concomitant explanation of this key Primordial Law of Attraction we simply could not deliver, for it centres on the most crucial question and its final reciprocal outworking for the whole of the human race. Yes, we could continue on and give many other examples of The Law of Attraction of Homogeneous Species... but they would pale into some insignificance to what you have now learned from The Son of Man!
Nonetheless, before we close this short Discourse, let’s reiterate the primary process of Divine Law that brought Jesus to the Jewish race only, and briefly revisit that exact same “process” which produces the often quite disparate souls found in earthly family groups.
So: Despite that reality --- even to where a so-called “black sheep” incarnates into an otherwise, perhaps more ennobled, family --- the primary outworking of our Creation-Law of the moment is still the main determinant for the arrival of that individual too.
In final reinforcement, the “factors of attraction” for each family member can be many and varied, for the expectant mother will have many souls around her; all awaiting an opportunity for an earthly incarnation. Therefore, depending on the nature of those with whom she associates, and/or her “social activity” around the time of the entry of the soul; all these considerations will have a direct bearing on the kind of soul that finally occupies the foetus!
However, even a “dark soul” with an innate propensity to live a less than noble existence on the earth need not necessarily have to do so. Our inherent free-will factor gives such a person the opportunity to break free from any base propensities, no matter how strong, if it so chooses or wills for itself.
Reader: As we more-strongly detail in PART III; women, who are the providers of the “Spiritual Bridge of Attraction” and are thus the primary link by which incoming souls are able to enter the Earth Plane, have a very great responsibility here.
The mainly 5 Discourses there will provide much more detail in a no-holds-barred, no-stone-unturned focus on the role woman/women have played in the overall and inexcusable “spiritual downfall” of the human race!
