THE SECOND LAW
The sermons and lectures of the Master are dedicated to the three great Laws of the Great White Brotherhood:
1. Love God
2. Love thy neighbor
3. Seek perfection
The Master told us, "A nation which respects these seven sacred words has a future; if it loses them, it has no future."
These are the fundamental Laws of Life. The Master has given vast knowledge concerning them. In the following conversation, he gives explanations concerning the second Law - Love thy neighbor:
"Whatsoever man's relationship is to God - such will be his relationship to all people. Once he is shaken in his belief in God, there is the possibility that he will become hesitant with regards to his neighbor and towards himself as well. It is not possible for you to have a right relationship with anyone as long as you have no connection with God.
"The love for God is a venous flow by which the impure blood goes to the heart and lungs to be purified, to become arterial. The venous and arterial flow of the blood not only exists in the body, but in human thoughts and emotions as well. For example, hatred and jealousy are the venous blood in man, whereas love and joy - the arterial.
"When one has love for God, he transforms the flow of the negative forces into positive, and the impure blood becomes pure. After that, it flows as arterial blood throughout the whole body to nourish all the cells. I am speaking symbolically. This is the love for one's neighbor. This means that when you come to love God, you enter into His Heart to become purified. So purified, you go out and properly transport the blood: that is to say, the blessings towards your neighbor.
"The love for one's neighbor is included within the love for God, but not vice versa. Many have love for others, but become easily disappointed by this love. Why? An essential element is missing. That is to say, when people love their neighbors, they need to love the Divine within them. The one who has only loved his neighbor has gained nothing. Without God, the love for one's neighbor contributes nothing.
"Imagine that you fall in love with the finger of God. If you want to see God, you should not fall in love with His finger alone. When people perceive themselves as beings within whom God abides, they will then have correct relationships. To come to know my neighbor - this means that I know that the same God whom I love dwells within my neighbor.
"When you meet someone say, 'Lord, I thank Thee that I have met Thee in this man.' Every man that you meet is an assignment, because you are to love the Divine within him. Everyone who is God's Creation deserves to be loved.
"God's Law works in the following way: act towards others as you act towards yourself. And yet the perfect act is to relate to others in the way that God relates to you: that is to say, hold them in your mind just as God is holding them in His Mind. The least being occupies a high place in God's Mind. Therefore my relationship with others needs to be as good as God's relationship is to them. We cannot be like Him, but let's walk on His Path.
"Your love for your neighbor creates the conditions for the fruit in the garden of your soul and in the soul of him whom you love to bloom and to ripen.
"When we have love for God, we are receiving. God is then helping us; the Supreme Beings are helping us. When we have love for our neighbor, we are giving."
