Assembly

ALICE A. BAILEY: Discipleship in the New Age II, page
402: “That which is rejected and which is occultly thrown out as no longer serving the purpose of the planetary Logos is replaced by that which “will measure up to the purpose of the Father.” It is this concept which has been travestied and distorted by the Christian teaching anent the “vicarious atonement.” This grew out of a basic confusion between the Law of Sacrifice and the Law of Assembly, and took place when any understanding of the nature of the Father remained a supreme mystery; the whole process was then interpreted in terms of the first and highest Aspect of the essential Trinity, of which man knew nothing, instead of in terms of the second Aspect, the building, magnetic aspect of Love.”

403: “The process in which the initiate is now permitted to share during and after the fourth Initiation of Renunciation (which is presented to him in a successive series of points of revela-tion) is made possible by his submission to the Law of Sacrifice. This, in its turn, brings his con-sciousness under the influence – in developing stages – of the Law of Assembly. This is a law to which I have not yet made reference in any of my previous instructions. The initiate can now – through appreciated and comprehended revelation – add to his work with the Plan and its build-ing technique, a capacity to work with divine Purpose and with those substances (etheric in na-ture) and those energies which permeate the cosmic etheric body (the four higher planes of our cosmic physical plane) under a law which is set in motion by the Father, but which makes the building activity of the Son possible, so that it is utterly in line with divine Purpose.”
