There are three figures represented in the Chart of Your Divine Self. We refer to them as the upper figure, the middle figure and the lower figure. These three correspond to the Christian [[Trinity]]: The upper corresponds to the Father, who is one with the Mother, the middle to the Son, and the lower to the temple of the [[Holy Spirit]]. | There are three figures represented in the '''Chart of Your Divine Self'''.

We address our Father-Mother God as the [[I AM Presence]]. This is the [[I AM THAT I AM]], whom God revealed to [[Moses]] and individualized for every son and daughter of God. Your I AM Presence is surrounded by seven concentric spheres of rainbow light. These make up your [[causal body]], the biding place of your I AM Presence. In Buddhism it is called the [[Dharmakaya]]—the body of the Lawgiver (the I AM Presence) and the Law (the [[causal body]]). | We address our [[Father-Mother God]] as the [[I AM Presence]].

The spheres of your causal body are successive planes of God’s consciousness that make up your heaven-world. They are the “many mansions” of your Father’s house, where you lay up your “treasures in heaven.” Your treasures are your words and works worthy of your Creator, constructive thoughts and feelings, your victories for the right, and the virtues you have embodied to the glory of God. When you judiciously exercise your free will to daily use the energies of God in love and in harmony, these energies automatically ascend to your causal body. They accrue to your soul as “talents,” which you may then multiply as you put them to good use lifetime after lifetime. | The spheres of your causal body are successive planes of God’s consciousness that make up your heaven-world.

The silver (or crystal) cord is the stream of life, or “lifestream,” that descends from the heart of the I AM Presence through the Holy Christ Self to nourish and sustain (through the seven chakras and the secret chamber of the heart) the soul and her four lower bodies. It is over this “umbilical” cord that the light of the Presence flows, entering the being of man at the [[crown chakra]] and giving impetus for the pulsation of the threefold flame in the secret chamber of the heart. | The silver (or crystal) cord is the stream of life, or “lifestream,” that descends from the heart of the I AM Presence through the Holy Christ Self to nourish and sustain (through the seven chakras and the [[secret chamber of the heart]]) the soul and her four lower bodies.

Shown just above the head of the Christ is the dove of the Holy Spirit descending in the benediction of the Father-Mother God. When your soul has achieved the alchemical marriage, she is ready for the baptism of the Holy Spirit. And she may hear the Father-Mother God pronounce the approbation: “This is my beloved Son in whom I AM well pleased.”<ref>Matt. 3:17.</ref> | Shown just above the head of the Christ is the dove of the Holy Spirit descending in the benediction of the Father-Mother God.

When your soul concludes a lifetime on earth, the I AM Presence withdraws the silver cord, whereupon your threefold flame returns to the heart of your Holy Christ Self.

Your soul, clothed in her etheric garment, gravitates to the highest level of consciousness to which she has attained in all of her past incarnations. Between embodiments she is schooled in the [[etheric retreat]]s until her final incarnation when the great law decrees she shall return to the Great God Source to go out no more. | ||
Your soul is the nonpermanent aspect of your being, which you make permanent through the [[ascension]] process. By this process your soul balances her karma, bonds to your Holy Christ Self, fulfills her divine plan and returns at last to the living Presence of the I AM THAT I AM. Thus the cycles of her going out into the Matter Cosmos are completed. In attaining union with God she has become the Incorruptible One, a permanent atom in the Body of God. The Chart of Your Divine Self is therefore a diagram of yourself—past, present and future. | Your soul is the nonpermanent aspect of your being, which you make permanent through the [[ascension]] process.
