Love your group members.

Give each other real love in the times that lie ahead, for it is the fusing and illuminating element in the life of the disciple. Let not your love remain theoretical but give that true understanding which ignores mistakes, recognizes no barriers, refuses all separating thoughts, and surrounds each other with that protecting wall of love that meets all need wherever possible – physical, emotional and mental.
It is this which blends the group into one organized whole, which the masters of wisdom can use in the service of the plan.
From "Discipleship in the new age vol 2 page 4" by Alice A Bailey

Spiritual Festival of Christ

The Festival of Christ will be held on Sunday 7 Jun 2009

“Today, on World Invocation Day,

it is worth recalling the remarks of the Tibetan that if we use the Great Invocation “rightly”,

it can “reorient the consciousness of humanity” and stabilise it “in spiritual being”.

It can disrupt and rebuild the planetary thoughtform that has been created in the past,

one which “had and is having such disastrous and cataclysmic results”,

and open the door to a new and better world;

and that “this could be done so rapidly that the needed changes would come about almost overnight”.

While the strength of the combined efforts of all those who use the Great Invocation is undoubtedly being effective in disrupting the planetary thoughtform of selfish materialism,

it is vitally important to know that,

with a little more effort,

the needed changes for a new and better world could be with us right now.

This should serve as a powerful urge for us all to renew our resolve and dedication to the Plan and to earnestly seek to distribute the Great Invocation more widely as well as to deepen our understanding of its use.”

May 9 (Taurus) FULL MOON is at 04:03 GREENWICH MEAN TIME The time Wesak / Vesak

The day of the Festival is to be known as the "day of safeguarding" whilst the two succeeding days are called the "days of distribution." These words mean something different to the Hierarchy of Masters than they do to us and it is fruitless (as well as forbidden) to elucidate them in their deepest meaning. Read more

The sons and daughters of God

When we read esoteric writings and mantrams, we will notice that sometimes it excludes either men or women.
For instance the verse in the Mantram of Unification:

"The sons of men are one and we are one with them."

Or
The popular reference about "The daughters of the earth"

We must remember that we are all both male and female. We are products of the DNA of both our mothers and fathers.

When the male reference is used in a mantram, "the sons of men," it means that the eyes of the esoteric writer are focused on returning to the house of "The Holy Father" and to the workers of light.

When the feminine is used the eyes of the esoteric writer are focused on the loving service and healing of Mother Earth - Gods Creation.

Christ, the principle of love, is neither male nor female.
It is for the reappearance of The Christ that we are preparing humanity today.
This is why there is a tendency to use both the male and female in the modern mantrams of this time.
The desired eye focus today is on the balancing of the masculine and the feminine.
Between our spirituality and the impact we have in our environment.

We are aiming to create heaven on earth.

What I believe about incarnation

What I believe about incarnation



God sends some people into incarnation to have fun and enjoyment. God loves a happy world.

God sends other to have a hard time and grow strong to change things that require strength to accomplish. People having a hard time are very special to God. He knows you can overcome this hurdle and grow strong enough to face up to tough challenges. It is much more difficult to overcome adversary than it is to just have a carefree life.

God sends other to live with disabilities to teach us compassion and humility. Disabled people are very special to God. Great rewards await them in the eternal hereafter when they will experience wholeness again.


God sends all of us to care for the environment around us and make the earth, His creation, a better place for all his creatures to live in. God loves His creation - we are all part of it.

Group prayer for peace

There are certain times during the year that we have the opportunity to link up to groups of like minded people in order to pray together, even if we live alone. During this coming Easter we have such an opportunity for group meditation and prayer.

This earth needs our light and love in order to shift the mass consciousness of humanity to a state of peace. It is no longer possible for one country to make war against another country only. The fragile earth's atmosphere can no longer tolerate the destruction of war. War against any group of people is war against humanity as a whole.

When we pray for peace this Easter, we can visualize linking to all other people all over the world who are in prayer.

Thinking positively

Thoughts are Things

A while ago my computer spat out the following phrase: "Thoughts are things” Your habitual thoughts create your reality.

When I projected a difficult 2009 because the year started off with some minor problems. Problems like my car not wanting to start after the New Year celebrations, my sister, who is currently reading a book called "The Secret", reminded me that what I project, becomes my reality.

If we all project positive thoughts about the ability of our country's leaders to resolve their differences, and bring about unity and prosperity to all citizens, peace may become a reality.

The New Group of World Servers.

• This group has been chosen by the Hierarchy as its main channel of expression.
  

• This group, composed as it is of all world disciples and all working initiates, finds its representatives in every group of idealists and servers and in every body of people who express human thought, particularly in the realm of human betterment and uplift.
• Through them, the potency of love-wisdom can express itself.
• These people are frequently misunderstood, for the love which they express differs widely from the sentimental, affectionate personal interest of the average worker.
• They are occupied mainly with the interests and the good of the whole group with which they may be associated; they are not primarily concerned with the petty interests of the individual — occupied with his little problems and concerns.
• This brings such a server under the criticism of the individual and with this criticism they must learn to live and to it they must pay no attention.
• True group love is of more importance than personal relationships, though those are met as need (note, I say, need) arises.
  
• Disciples learn to grasp the need of group love and to amend their ways in conformity with group good, but it is not easy for the self-interested individual to grasp the difference.
• Through the medium of those disciples who have learned the distinction between the petty concerns of the individual plus his interest in himself and the necessities and urgencies of group work and love, the Hierarchy can work and so bring about the needed world changes, which are primarily changes in consciousness.
