The Use of Form in Meditation 2. The subject of this letter today will interest you for we are to take up form as used by the occultist and the mystic. It might be of value to us if we first differentiated with care between the two types. I would begin by a statement of fact. The mystic is not necessarily an occultist, but the occultist embraces the mystic.
Mysticism is but one step on the path of occultism.
In the next solar system the path of least resistance will be that which we now understand as the occult path. The mystic path will have been trodden. In this manner the occultist arrives at those Intelligences Who work with the law, till he attains the fundamental Intelligence Himself. The occultist works through the Rays of Power, Activity, and Ceremonial Law, or the first, the third and the seventh. By finding the kingdom of God within himself and by the study of the laws of his own being, the mystic becomes proficient in the laws which govern the universe of which he is a part.
