Occult Obedience

ALICE A. BAILEY: Discipleship in the New Age II, page
154: “The Master imparts the nature of the Plan or the Purpose – according to the status of the initiate – and that is accepted by him under the Law of Free Occult Obedience. But the disciple or the initiate must not remain forever dependent upon the transmission of the divine thought to him by Those more advanced than he. He must learn to make his own contacts and to tap the “raincloud” for himself.”

LUCILLE CEDERCRANS: Ashramic Projections, Chapter 4, page
50: “An accepted disciple is, as we have previously stated, an accepting one. He is a disciple who has served his probationership. He has initiated, via his own application of the Wisdom, his share of the ashramic plan into a planned activity. He will always be working in relationship to those within the Ashram who are below him in evolutionary development and with those who are above or ahead of him. An accepted disciple is one whose acceptance of occult obedience is acceptable to the Master. For him, occult obedience has become the law which governs his interpretation.”
