By The Tibetan
Twelve Points About Triangles
What is a Triangle?
The
word “Triangles” has both an arresting and a pictorial quality. It has been described as an activity whereby
a network of light and goodwill covering the entire planet is created and
maintained. That statement is basic and
fundamental, but understanding of the real significance of Triangles only
starts at that point.
To
arrive at a universally good and right solution of its many problems, humanity
needs more mental illumination – more, “light on its way” – and more goodwill
in the relationships that are inevitable within the pattern and structure of a
modern civilized society. Goodwill has
been called “X” factor which, when introduced into any situation produces a
change of heart and mind commensurate with the sincerity and the intention of
those who wield this power for good or who respond to its note. As a result of the daily action of Triangles
workers “a network” of light and good will covers the entire planet.”
The
network of light, carrying and radiating the energy of goodwill, affects not
only those who are registered Triangles workers making their daily contribution
of spiritual potency to the worldwide network, but all men and women of goodwill
wherever they are to be found are stimulated by the magnetic radiation through
the network of the will –to- good.
The
network is a factual and practical reality.
The interlocking strands of relationship created in the ethers by the
power of thought and the spiritual intention of all Triangles workers impringe
upon human consciousness. Human
consciousness expressed through human behavior, action and opinion, through
the way in which crisis are handled and problems solved. Personal, national and international
relationships all react to the note that predominates in the consciousness of
humanity at any one time.
Triangles
workers within the network, in their invocation of light, love and the
will-to-good on behalf of the entire human family, cross all social, national
economic, religious and ideological boundaries and help to relate all of us to
one another in simple good will and loving understanding.
New
technical development has made all countries neighbors in a geographical
sense. It has been given us means of
destruction far more terrible than those which have previously been at the
disposal of anybody. The economic ties
between different countries have become much closer than before. Thus, we face
today a situation characterized by greatly increased international
interdependence, rich in possibilities; but also fraught with dangers unknown
to the world of yesterday. This is the
world we must master. This is the world
in which a new approach is necessary, for every single individual and from the
various governments, but also collectively.
Our problem is how to use what humanity has created for the benefit of
humanity instead of for its destruction.
That problem can be resolved only by a joint effort in which all are
willing to take their part and to carry their responsibility.
Men
and women of goodwill do indeed carry a high responsibility, so to deepen and
to express the power of goodwill present in their own hearts and minds, that an
answering response and a quickening of the latent goodwill present within all
humanity is the inevitable result. For
the most part we are not yet fully aware of what can be accomplished within
humanity towards the establishing of right relations by the intelligent and
intentional use of the energy of goodwill as it is directed through the network
of lighted triangles and into human consciousness.
The
work of Triangles is fully launched upon its path of world service. Individual understanding of it purpose and
cooperation in action
and spiritual intention makes of each triangle unit
a station of lighted goodwill within the network, creating the spiritual
atmosphere in which humanity can learn to live together in harmony and right
relationship. Ours is now the task of
strengthening and perpetuating this network of worldwide service to our fellow
men and women.
(2) Why a
Network?
A
network provides the necessary interlocking strands or channels
along which flow the energies of light and goodwill invoked by all Triangles
workers.
The network
of light and goodwill is both actual and symbolic. It manifests in mental and etheric substance
the interrelationship existing between all forms of conscious life on the
physical plane. It is symbolic of the
inner spiritual unity and relationship of all the many parts contained within
the whole Life and Mind of God.
For
the purposes of directing the energies of light and goodwill
through the ethers surrounding and interpenetrating the earth, and into human
consciousness a “conductor” is necessary. The channel along which these spiritual
energies flow is created in mental substance through the deliberate action of groups
of three people linking by the power of thought their own mental
equipment to the mind of humanity. On
the mental plane the minds of all people function at varying levels of awareness,
and a conscious and deliberate linking at a certain level for a definite
purpose produces an effect. “Energy follows thought”,
and so the network is constructed of living strands of lighted mental substance
directed into activity by the intention of Triangles workers to create a
vehicle suitable for the circulation and transmission of the energy of
goodwill.
At
each point of intersection within the network stands a human being using the
mind, directing thought and invoking spiritual energies for the benefit of all
humanity. The power to do so is
immeasurably greater in
triangular formation and as part of a larger whole
than it would be if working in mental isolation.
What
is present in the human mind determines outward behavior and action. The mental plane is, therefore, causal and
conditioning. Light and goodwill poured
dynamically through the network of Triangles by the mental activity of
Triangles workers have their inevitable result within human consciousness.
So, in
time, right causal conditions will produce right effects, and human activity
will become the outer reflection of the light and the will-to-good poured impersonally
into the human kingdom and available to all people alike.
The
network, therefore, provides a medium of relationship, a channel for the
conduction of spiritual energies, and causal factor impregnating the ethers and
the atmosphere of the earth with those right conditions and attitudes of mind
and heart which will work out through the consciousness of humanity in
brotherhood and the “ordered freedom” of shared responsibility and right
relations on earth within the human family.
3, Why A Triangle?
The triangle is a basic geometric figure, spiritually symbolical of the original essential Trinity of the Godhead. Three people can work as a group and provide the linked focal points through which spiritual energy can circulate.
The secret of the efficiency of the work of Triangles lies in the fact that we are dealing with energies and that all energy is in ceaseless motion. Energy naturally flows. Once a flow of spiritual energy is set up, it can be a perpetuated and increased in volume and potency by rhythmic impulsing. Three people acting together for a common purpose and in the same way can set up an ever increasingly powerful flow of any energy with which they choose to work. This Triangles members do with the two energies of "light". and "goodwill"
Three is the smallest possible unit of such flowing action and the smaller the unit, the easier to form and the less complicated to operate. It brings to the work the power of accepted responsibility, for no one of the three can fail in his/her work without the whole unit being destroyed. If A drops out, B and C cannot work as a triangle until they have found someone to take A's place. Every Triangles worker is therefore, of vital importance. If he of she were part of a larger unit, he/she could drop out and might not be very much missed.
It is impossible to be casual about spiritual energies and expect to get results. Triangles work cannot be potent and worthwhile if done as convenient

| Interlocking Triangles |
A triangle produces a more unshakable basis of work than duality can achieve. It finds its own center of gravity and position of balance. This is not only true of physical objects such as the stability of a tricycle as compared with a bicycle, but it is also true of spiritual action. Every world religion teaches that God is a Trinity. The life of God which flows in and through humanity is one life manifesting in three essential aspects and the human being is most perfectly described as body, soul and spirit.
(4). Of what does the network consist?
The network is built of strands of lighted mental substance along which flows the energy of goodwill.

| Example of Worldwide Network of Strands of Light forming the Antakahana |
Comparatively few human beings today, and certainly none capable of intelligent and independent thinking, are content with an explanation of life in terms of material benefit and possessions. That there is something more beyond the visible and the range of sense contacts, is acknowledged if but little understood as yet.
Human relationships in outer living in the world, and human responsibilities for the creation of new and better conditions, are dependent entirely upon the level of the scale of human values. Where is the emphasis placed? On things, on feelings, on thoughts-or on a synthesis of these three in an integrated whole used as an instrument for the outward expression of spiritual energies impinging on the material world from that little known world of invisible forces.
Little by little humanity is learning , largely as a result of scientific research, that what has been in the past considered as dense matter is, in reality, energy in motion. Matter is energy, light is energy, thought is energy, goodwill is an energy expressing the love of God. So the work of Triangles is an act of energy propulsion, impulsed and vitalized from the unseen source of spiritual power, motivated by love of humanity and the desire to serve. From the highest spiritual being on the planet, into the outer world of daily living, the tide of the new life sweeps.
(5) How Is It Built?
The network is built and maintained by the daily action of each triangles worker invoking spiritual energies and using the creative power of his mind.
Much as a sculptor shapes an idea into clay, so do Triangles workers build into mental substance the network of light and goodwill. First, the sculptor creates a mental picture. Its outer form takes shape according to the clarity beauty and accuracy of the thought, and the skill in transferring the ideas to the clay itself.
The network creates clear lines of spiritual relationship between human beings the world over. It operates as a radio network by projecting beams of light from point to point. To be effective each triangle should be accurately visualized and a current of spiritual energy powerfully projected throughout the network. The plan and blueprint of the work is clearly outlined in three simple stages:
The linking in thought each day with the other two members of each triangle
The visualizing of light and goodwill flowing through the three points of each triangle and into the network as a whole.
Example of Interlocking Triangles
The sounding of the great Invocation with love for all humankind.
By this simple yet powerful formula a united humanity may use its God-given power to create those right conditions in which we may live at peace.
(6) How is the work done?
The individual links in thought and purpose weigh the other two members of the triangle, or triangles, seeing the vital energies of light and goodwill circulating from point to point. The person then directs the flow of energy into the network, clearly visualizing the radiant worldwide network of Triangles, of which his or her own is a part. the individual then repeats the words of the Great Invocation with concentration and intention.
THE GREAT INVOCATION
FROM THE POINT OF LIGHT WITHIN THE MIND OF GOD
LET LIGHT STREAM FORTH INTO THE MINDS OF MEN,
LET LIGHT DESCEND TO EARTH.
Let Light Stream Forth Into the Minds of Men
FROM THE POINT OF LOVE WITHIN THE HEART OF GOD,
LET LIGHT STREAM FORTH INTO THE HEARTS OF MEN,
MAY CHRIST RETURN TO EARTH.
 |
| May Christ Return to Earth |
FROM THE CENTER WHICH WE CALL THE WILL OF GOD,
LET PURPOSE GUIDE THE LITTLE WILLS OF MEN,
THE PURPOSE WHICH THE MASTERS KNOW AND SERVE...
FROM THE CENTER WHICH WE CALL THE RACE OF MEN,
LET THE PLAN OF LIGHT AND LOVE WORK OUT AND MAY IT SEAL THE DOOR WHERE EVIL DWELLS.
MAY LIGHT AND LOVE AND POWER RESTORE THE PLAN
ON EARTH.
OM OM OM
IT HAS BEEN STATED FREQUENTLY THAT THE ACTUAL WORK TO BE DONE BY EACH TRIANGLES WORKER IS OF THE UTMOST SIMPLICITY. IT APPEARS TO BE SO SIMPLE THAT ITS ESSENTIAL AND DEEP SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE IS OFTEN OVERLOOKED, OR UNDER-ESTIMATED.
It even happens on occasions that Triangles workers consider they can increase the effectiveness of their work by additions or substitutions according to individual interest and inclination. Any such practice, however, no matter how well-intentioned, merely serves to confuse and distort the purpose of the triangles work and to detract from the flow of energy into and through the network of light and goodwill worldwide.
(7) Why Use the Invocation?
The use of this Invocation focuses and releases the spiritual energies available for the vitalizing of the whole network.
There are two available sources of spiritual potency for the network. The first is the light and goodwill in each Triangles worker. These two basis divine qualities in each of us are part of our human heritage as "children of the one Father," for "we are made in His image" and "in Him we live and move and have out being." This is a profound and mystical truth.
The Great Invocation which we use each day in our Triangles action transcends this old age individual benefit state of consciousness. We are not working in Triangles for what we get out of it. We are cooperating in the worldwide service to all humanity. The degree of selflessness manifest in the quality of Triangles members as a group is high. We have grasped the new age concept that we live in a world community in practical terms and are taking action together.
This is our strength and our sure foundation of reality in human values.
The light we invoke by our use of the Great Invocation "streams forth into the minds of men" - all men and women not just to our friends or even our nation. The Love we invoke streams forth into the hearts of all people . The Will and Purpose of God are for all. The effect of god's Plan in terms of love and light is for all humanity as one group or center of divine life.
The Great Invocation is a selfless impersonal, universal prayer. when we use it we act as members of the human family partaking of the "One Life" and seeking the welfare of all people everywhere in the world. By its daily use we become more truly "the children of the one Father" than we have ever been before.
More specifically this Invocation as used by Triangles workers brings in and pours through the network to humanity that supremely essential divine potency which must be present else our effort fails. Goodwill is the expression in the human heart of God's Will-to-Good. It ensures the success of God's Plan. The goodwill in us we build into the network. We then invoke God's Will to that which is good and which ought to be according to His Plan. As cooperators in God's Plan we stand, and standing, work, and goodwill flows forth into the hearts and minds of all of us increasingly and continually because of what we do.
(8) What is the Motive for Joining Triangles?
The motive is not personal benefit but world service. Our work in Triangles is a service to humanity. We do not form triangles for our own spiritual benefit or comfort, but to create a network through which the divine energies of Light and Love and Power may flow into the minds and hearts of people everywhere.
In this work we receive but to give, and this is the true meaning of service. It has been said that the highest ideal is to serve, and all history bears witness to the fact that the truly great dedicate their lives in service to their fellows. In this work of Triangles, quietly and unobtrusively we play our part in the evolving pattern of history at a crucial point in the spiritual unfoldment of humanity.
Each member of a triangle, motivated by love for his or her fellow men and women, is a powerhouse, generating spiritual light. this light is transmitted through the worldwide network created by our cooperative efforts, and helps to dispel the dark clouds that oppress so many of the human family. This spiritual light helps to create the mental climate in which the Four Freedoms will flourish, in which we shall know our fellow human beings as brothers and sisters; that climate in which the new civilization will arise which embodies the good the true and the beautiful.
This is the PLAN we serve, and in serving we help to restore the Plan on Earth.
