Within the Source, all is One and there is no separation. Just as light divides into seven colors when it travels through a prism, the Source divides into Seven Rays when it travels through the prism of separation and down into the fourth, and then the third, dimensions. These Seven Rays represent the Seven Divine Qualities of the Source.
The First Ray that continuously separates from the Heart of the One is of the essence of the Divine Father and His Divine Will manifested into the quality of Power. Therefore, The First Ray is the Quality of Power.
The Second Ray that continuously separates from the Heart of the One is of the essence of the Divine Mother and Her Form manifested in the quality of Wisdom. Therefore, The Second Ray is the Quality of Wisdom.
The Third Ray, which separates out from the union of the First Ray/Divine Father and the Second Ray/Divine Mother, is the essence of the Divine Child and his or her Consciousness, manifested in the quality of Love. Therefore, The Third Ray is the Quality of Love.
Just as the Third Ray separates out from the union of the first two rays, the Divine Father and the Divine Mother, rays four through seven separate out from the Third Ray, the Divine Child. Rays four through seven represent the qualities that the Child of Father/God and Mother/Goddess should possess in his or her manifested reality if he or she is ever to return to God/Goddess and into the Heart of the One.
The Fourth Ray represents the quality of Purity which will allow the Divine Child to ascend back into God/Goddess and into the Heart of the One. Therefore, The Fourth Ray is the Quality of Purity.
The Fifth Ray represents the quality of Truth which will allow the Divine Child to heal him- or herself and to progress scientifically. Therefore, The Fifth Ray is the Quality of Truth.
The Sixth Ray represents the quality of Invocation which will allow the Divine Child to call upon God/Goddess/All That IS. Therefore, The Sixth Ray is the Quality of Invocation.
The Seventh Ray represents the quality of Precipitation which will allow the Divine Child to evolve into God or Goddess through precipitation, or manifestation, on the lower dimensions. Therefore, The Seventh Ray is the Quality of Precipitation.
Each individual human Soul is an emissary of one of the Seven Rays, and through many lifetimes, the qualities of that Ray are developed and refined to contribute to the further evolution of humanity. Each individual also possess portions of the other six rays as well. These Seven Rays, which exist in Unity in the higher dimensions, represent the seven natural divisions of all Source as It expresses Itself in the fourth and third dimension.
The Seven Rays and their colors are:
| FIRST RAY | SECOND RAY | THIRD RAY | FOURTH RAY | FIFTH RAY | SIXTH RAY | SEVENTH RAY |
| Divine Quality: POWER | Divine Quality: WISDOM | Divine Quality: LOVE | Divine Quality: PURITY | Divine Quality: TRUTH | Divine Quality: INVOCATION | Divine Quality: PRECIPITATION |
| Color of: BLUE | Color of: YELLOW | Color of: PINK | Color of: WHITE | Color of: GREEN | Color of: GOLD | Color of: VIOLET |
The First Three Rays
The first three rays to separate from the Heart of the One became the three evolutionary groups of our Universe. These three evolutionary groups serve the Heart of the One as The Keepers of Flame, The Keepers of Form, and The Keepers of Mind.
The Keepers of Flame
When the Divine Father separated from the Heart of the One to become The First Ray, the evolutionary group of the Angelic Kingdom sprung forth. The Angels are closest to the Heart of the One of all the Kingdoms and serve to uphold the Divine Will and Power of the Source. Therefore, they are the Keepers of Flame and, led by their Archangels, they protect the Flame of Divine Will manifested as the Divine Quality of Power.
The Keepers of Form
When the Divine Mother separated from the Heart of the One to become The Second Ray, the evolutionary group of the Devic Kingdom sprung forth. The elementals and devas, led by the Elohim, serve to uphold the Wisdom that can be gained through taking form in the lower dimensions. Therefore, they are the Keepers of Form and they protect the image of Divine Form as it manifests upon the third and fourth dimensions.
The Keepers of Mind
When the Divine Child separated from the Divine Father and Mother to become the Third Ray, the evolutionary group of the Human Kingdom sprung forth. Humanity, led by the Ascended Masters, serves to uphold Higher Consciousness and the quality of Love. Therefore, humanity is the Keeper of Mind and serves to ground higher consciousness, which stems from pure love, in the lower dimensions.
These three “Keepers” are the three evolutionary groups of life in our cosmos which, through mutual co-operation, are responsible for the fulfillment of the Source’s creation. Life exists independently in each of these life evolutions, but they work in unity towards their service to the Source.
The Angelic Kingdom serves on all Seven Rays as The Keepers of Flame to uphold the virtue of Divine Will. Even though the Angels work to uphold the masculine/Father aspect of Will, they use the feminine, Mother aspect of Love and Emotion to accomplish their service.
The Devic Kingdom works on all Seven Rays as The Keepers of Form to uphold the virtue of Divine Form. Even though the Devas work to uphold the feminine, Mother aspect of Form, they use the masculine/Father aspect of Will and Thought to accomplish their service.
The Human Kingdom works on all Seven Rays as The Keepers of Mind to uphold the virtue of Divine Consciousness. It is humanity’s challenge to combine emotions and thoughts to ground the Divine Qualities on the third dimension.
The Four Lower Rays
The four lower rays are off-shoots of Third Ray. These four lower rays are known as the Rays of Attribute, and they serve to further define the Seven Qualities of the Source:
The Fourth Ray is the dispensation to humanity of the Divine Ideas of the first three rays. The Fourth Ray is known as the Ascension Ray because the knowledge and workings of these Divine Ideas is the core of humanity’s ascension.
- The Fifth Ray represents Divine Ideas connected with scientific discovery and medical research. This ray is known as the Ray of Truth and Healing.
- The Sixth Ray represents inspiration and is known as the Ray of Invocation.
- The Seventh Ray represents humanity’s quest to be creators in their own right and is known as the Ray of Precipitation.
