Upon reading a description of the Temple built by Solomon,
according to a plan given in detail by Jehovah, the materialist would give
but little thought to the mystery of the Twelve Gates. To him they are only
entrances to a building, but to the Student of Occultism they are duplicates,
or correspondences, of the entrances to a living Temple – the human body
– as well as to a greater Temple on interior planes – a Universal Temple.
Each detail of the Temple holds the key to all the mysteries of the division
of life it represents and is. To no one detail does more interest attach than
to that of the Twelve Gates.

The Ego enters the first three of the Twelve Gates by means of gross
matter, form and lower mind. Through many incarnations in fact up to the
period when connection is made with the Soul – Higher mind – the
Pilgrim of Days gradually passes through the first three gates of the
Universal Temple. By means of instinct atone, the reincarnating Monad
makes its way through the three Kingdoms of Nature until its form is
ensouled in the third Root Race of Mankind when, as a complete human
being, he is prepared to enter the next three gates. With a more refined
body, increased brain capacity and a soul, the passing of the next triad of
gates fats him for Temple Service. The first period of that service involves
the development of the latent qualities of ambition, endurance and
devotion.

The third triad of gates is entered only by "the few" of any race – the
Prepared – for they are the teachers of the masses, and this must be so until
the cycle rolls around in which all of a Redeemed Humanity may enter.
This opportunity will be part of the heritage of the Sixth Root Race. "They
are of those who have passed through great tribulations", great tests, and
won.

The last three gates are only entered by the Perfected – the Masters of
the highest degrees of Life – the highly evolved progenitors of the Seventh
Root Race. These are the gates through which come and go the Divine
Builders of Worlds.

The above is but a rough outline of this vast subject. What you and all
humanity are now most greatly concerned with is the last gate of the
second triad of gates through which you are now striving to pass.
Unfortunately, as it would seem, you have loaded yourselves with much
rubbish which must be cast' aside, or changed, before it will be possible for
you to get entirely through the gate. You are not yet sure what better be
cast aside. You think you may need some of that rubbish on the other ride
of the gate and so are confronted with the difficulty of fixing a right
valuation upon it. You still have to learn to put a right valuation upon
things. You have to learn that it is not necessary to cast away any useful
thing, but that it may be necessary for you to transmute the rubbish, to
reduce much of it as the chemist reduces gross matter to obtain the
particular substance he needs for some definite purpose.

"Without God nothing was made" and it is the God in that rubbish
which you must seek and fend, and when you have succeeded, the mass
will be so reduced in volume and character that you will find no difficulty
in passing through the gate, and once inside you will find yourselves
equipped for the necessary service.

These twelve gates have a certain correspondence to the Zodiac and to
every yearly cycle. April, May and June correspond to 'the first three
gates ; July, August and September to the second three ; October,
November and December to the third three ; and January, February
and March correspond to the last three. In terms of time you are now about
entering the last one of the second triad of gates with the beginning of the
month of January. The good resolutions made, as a result of interior
recognition of a new beginning, a new impulse given to the life forces, is,
figuratively speaking, the soul's ticket of entrance to the gate you are about
to enter, the last, so far as a yearly cycle of time is concerned. It is possible
that it will open for some of your number upon the floor of the Initiation
Chamber of the Great Temple, on each side of which is one of the four
Thrones occupied by four of the Masters of the highest Degrees. Each one
of those Thrones combines the resident power of the three of the twelve
exterior gates.

As the Pilgrim of Days travels toward the Universal Heart – the
mathematical point – he finds that all exterior forms of life appear to
condense, coalesce and concentrate ; as before indicated, they are reduced
to their original elements and Experience has yielded the power for such
reduction.

The experiences of the Ego through a whole fine of incarnations in
evanescent form have yielded the power by means of which it has passed
the Gates of the Temple and won eternal life in form. When any division
of humanity has succeeded in passing one of the outer gates there is great
rejoicing among those who traverse the tessellated floor of the Great
Initiation Chamber.

While the above statements may only be accepted symbolically by the
many, there are those who know I speak truly – those who KNOW that the
Great Temple exists and who rejoice with the Masters at the opening of
every new life cycle which makes for the development of the human race,
even if it must open on conditions so indescribably awful as to stagger the
imagination of Man. After the whirl-wind cometh the low, sweet Voice
which speaks Peace to all creatures ; out of travail cometh New Birth.
