Text: Constructive music is built upon right sound, vibrations and color; the pattern upon which the Universes, with their planets, suns, stars and moons are built and are kept in their rightful orbits. Sound and the correct building of vibrations hold all things in their own place. Were there disharmony in the plan, all would crumble as in the domino effect. Right sound, music, is God's Love for all He has created. A true composition has its progression of harmony, chords moving in numerical progression, right bridges, and counterpoint, all weaving about each other, one key, the sub-dominant or dominant of the key progressing into another key, and completing in various keys progressively. Sound creates form and color. Each of the Seven Building Rays has their Sound and vibration, making up the seven notes of the Major Scale with many variations. Sound in action, vibratory power, and the Great Silence is the highest rate of vibration - in the Silence is heard the Voice of God. Sound and vibration are the creative Cosmic Power. A Universe is formed through Sound and is the source of the Music of the Spheres emanating from the ONE LIFE. A Cosmic symphony of the planets thus is formed by their rotary activity - in perfect harmony and progression of chords and keys. Each planet has its own note. The note of earth is "fa", the fourth degree of the scale above middle C. When earth is perfected, her Tone will advance one degree to "G", the fifth note of the scale. Each individual has their own Tone which is often heard while in meditation. As the Path of Holiness advances, then there are two notes heard - Soul's keynote and the Dominant, the 5th degree of the scale-key of the Monadic Ray. Pythagoras developed the scale with its numbers, and is the basis of perfect music. Rock music does not observe sequence of numbers. This is why it is discordant to the Soul. All vibrations are changeable into Sound, because from this source all things proceed, and eventually will return to its source. Music power is little understood - either the good or the evil. If the knowledge of these facts were made known, the perfect progression of music would be a Spiritual Force in the world, and the results would be phenomenal. It is the representative in the tonal world of the Sounds of man's Spiritual progress. This Manvantara has its special Sound, due to the point of evolution the human race has made coming up from the lower kingdoms. In a few words, music is mathematical, and it is this that Pythagoras worked out. Good music is the basis of equilibrium in one's life and affairs. The source for man is the out-going of the Tone from the Atmic or Monadic level. It is the basic Spiritual Tone, the Tonic (which one knows as the keynote, first degree of the scale), with all its latent overtones. The Spiritual Monadic Tone does not change, but becomes more audible as the Soul progresses. On the Path of Return, the fullfillment of all the Spiritual potentials within the Monadic Tone become apparent. With each Soul the chorded archetype is conceived in the chord of the individual - the Goal is Oneness with the Monad, the Christ within. The same law of progression with the Monad is comparable in the Cosmos; so the end is contained within the beginning.
