129 - HAPPY EASTER - THE EASTER FESTIVAL

On the Third Day He Arose From the Dead

 The Following Information is Taken from the Arcane School, that celebrates the Three Spiritual Festivals.  The First Spiritual Festival is Easter. -mf

Easter Festival: Sun in Aries

Love is the cause of all creation and sustaining factor in all living.
The time of Easter is imbued with the initiating energy of Will powerfully flowing through the sign of Aries and bringing the spirit of Renewal into our lives.  The Christ was first to anchor the divine principle of Love, an alchemical process that continues to impact the hearts and minds of people of all faiths and cultures and is leading humanity into an age characterized by Love.
Esoterically, this time is known as the Festival of the Risen, Living Christ, and we meditate on its principle of resurrection into greater Life. "Christ in us, the hope of glory" becomes a touchstone of our deep reflections. Gradually, through such systematic and rhythmic efforts, the individual escapes the confines of the lower self, and is reborn to the inspirational life of the soul.  As with all Enlightened and liberated beings, the personality's subjective crucifixion and death leads to the renewal of consciousness and a life of spiritual purpose and expression.

Prayer to Archangel Michael

As we pass through the fasting and sacrifices of the Lenten season into the renewal of life, we stop and consider how thankful we all are that we are alive and able to celebrate this sacred season.  Many were not so lucky and I have been very busy making sure that their souls do not dwell as shadows on the earth and that we pray to Archangel Michael who promised to deliver all souls into the Etheric Plane - the prayer was taken out of the Mass in the Catholic church and this is too bad as every time we invoked this prayer, we were insured that Archangel Michael would deliver the souls.  As so many souls have left the earth around the world in the past month, it is important that they are delivered to the Etheric Plane.
Here is the prayer and I would encourage anyone who reads this to begin to pray for all those who will still be leaving the planet during this pandemic.

'Saint Michael the Archangel, 

defend us 

in battle. 

Be our protection

 against the wickedness

 and snares of the devil;

 May God rebuke him,

 we humbly pray;

 And do thou, O Prince of

 the Heavenly Host, by the 

power of God, thrust into

 hell Satan and all evil

 spirits who wander through

 the world for the ruin of souls.

AMEN

Today we search for Truth by an intelligent approach to the world we live in, but there is also a danger in an overly mental and analytical approach which distorts the true nature of "the mind that is in Christ". The mind is the great revealer of truth but until it is calm and reflective, it remains "the slayer of the real".  It stands in stark contrast to the simplicity of Chris's message of Love.  When this healing remedy is used, heart and mind are lifted into something so spiritually majestic that all lower concerns and distractions bow before it.  Its allows entry into a stream of liberating energy where we can stand united with all who Love and become attuned to the power  that makes all things new.

When we say "Christ gave His life for us" we are correct; because not only did he not have to return to earth and give His life for our purification; He also showed us the Way, the Truth and the Life of the Spiritual Being Who He was.  It was His example in that He was the way shower.  From His birth in a humble stable, to His journey to the East with His parents, to His entering the temple  at the age of twelve to teach the Rabbis, to His gathering his Apostles and Disciples who would be taught the inner mysteries through the parables that He left for them and us to contemplate and meditate upon.  But beyond all of these examples, it was His ability to show us the Path to Ascension through the raising of the Kundalini energy at the base of the spine and allow us to participate with Him on His powerful  journey into liberation.  From Holy Thursday onward, He allowed us to see His celebration with those He loved, the Twelve apostles at the Last Supper.  His excruciating night in the Garden of Gethsemane where Archangel Uriel came to comfort Him while His Apostles slept.  We saw His betrayer in Judas who for Thirty pieces of silver gave Christ over to His oppressors, who Crucified Him and jeered at Him while nailing his hands and feet to the Cross.  Good Friday was a day of Judgement, as His followers followed Him along the via de la Rosa, His three falls while carrying His cross to Golgotha, Veronica wipes the  "Face of Jesus," and the soldiers after nailing Him to the Cross  pierce his Side with a spear.

Now Jesus is taken to a tomb and here He leaves His body and descends into hell, and then Resurrects Himself and walks among His apostles once again.  Finally after forty days He Ascends into Heaven.  These last three days are crucial to our understanding of what He gave to us.  He showed us that we had to go through a cleansing and releasing of karma, He showed us that although the physical vehicle is crucified, the spirit continues and while most of us will have to return again and again on the Wheel of Karma, He showed us that there is a greater path that leads to liberation and eternal life.  This is what Easter is all about, His final lesson and his final words were :  

 "On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you. Whoever has My commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves Me. He who loves Me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show Myself to him."

Peace Be With You!

127 - Lesson 47 - The Ten Seed Groups - No. 9 - Financiers and Economists

THE WORLD TEACHER

MASTER DJWHAL KHUL

The Financiers and Economists are definitely under the Seventh Ray which is coming in on the waves of the Aquarian Age.  Remember that the Seventh Ray is connected directly with the Age of Aquarius and the Seventh Ray Angel, who will be the Lord of this particular Ray.  Other energies expressed by this particular Ray are the Law of Forgiveness, and of course the three underlying foundations that make up our Constitution and the Declaration of Independence here in these United States - they are:  Freedom, Brotherhood and Liberty.  

These Three ingredients are the major energies of the Seventh Ray Disciples and this Seventh Ray energy is now pervading and filling the Earth and all thereon with the energy of both the Father - I AM THAT and the Mother - I AM.  The Father being the Active Principle with the color Blue as First Ray and the Mother with the color Pink being the Third Ray - thus the two rays combined form  the Violet Flame which is a powerful energy within the Seventh Ray that allows one to not only ask for forgiveness but to forgive all who have every acted against them.  This Violet Ray a Gift from the Most High God - the I AM THAT I AM - acts as an erasure that scrubs away at the Etheric Body, removing all that has been carried with us lifetime after lifetime.  It is this powerful energy that will change the concept of Economics as we see it today.  For these disciples of the Seventh Ray will be spreading the love of God into their work and therefore, all peoples throughout the world will benefit.   The few who now call themselves the elite will not benefit, for they will no longer be able to hold onto their wealth, their greed and their power.  Once this Ray has settled into our atmosphere and the disciples of this Ray begin to activate its power, they will ensure that all of mankind have the abundance necessary to meet every one of their needs.  Let's hear what the World Teacher has to say about these Financiers and Economists.

9.  Financiers and Economists

They will work with the energies and forces which express themselves through the interchange and the values of commerce; they will deal with the Law of Supply and Demand and with the great principle of Sharing whichever governs Divine Purpose.

They will be the great psychometrical workers, for a psychometrist is one whose soul is sensitive to the soul in others and in all forms of life.  The principle of Sharing which must govern economic relations in the future is a soul quality or energy and hence their work of relating soul with soul.  They also evoke the soul of the past, linking it with the present and finding it likewise indicative of the future.

Again, we see that these workers under the Seventh Ray will not only deal with the Law of Supply and Demand; but will also "SHARE" it with all mankind.  They are able to do this because they are unique in their ability to be sensitive to all souls and and therefore, they will begin to make available to all mankind what is rightfully theirs as we are all part of God's children dwelling upon this planet.

They are also unique in their ability to bring those souls of the past into the Aquarian Age bringing them up to date with the Divine Plan that has been set forth during this Great Age of Equality, Fraternity and Liberty.

This group sees the following centers in their work.  The head, heart, throat and sacral centers*.

*Sacral Centers are:  Seat of the Soul Chakra located at the
navel; and the Kundalini Chakra located at the base of the Spine.

"Ten Seed Groups" Catalyst for the New Age.  

Economics is clearly one of the main battleground in the life of humanity for establishing a greater practical emphasis on the values of the Soul.  One every side we see pitted against each other greed and selfish interests on the one hand, and on the other the heartfelt desire to serve humanity by lifting it into a life where the essential physical opportunities and needs of every person are met in a reasonable and universal way.  Essential to this is the equitable sharing of the world's resources and the crying need for financial justice.  This recognition has inevitably evoked a multitude of heartening responses which bear the hallmarks of this seed group.  Among them we can highlight the following:

  The many successful pioneering initiatives that put ethics at the heart of their business, and investment models; 

  The research groups working out how a 'steady state' or 'circular' economy might operate successfully on every scale from the local to the global - so necessary in a world of finite resources; the campaigns for tax justice - paying tax should be seen as a contribution to the good of society, not as a burden.  At the heart of all this good work is the recognition that money is an enabling energy that depends for its effect on the motives of the people using it.  As the heart of humanity continues to awaken, and under the influence of this seed group, money will become the "root of much good". 

Ray VII, the Seventh Ray of  Ceremonial Magic and Order.

St. Germain, the Seventh Angel

Lord of the Seventh Ray

The following explanation of the Seventh Ray is from the book

"Seven Rays Made Visual" by Helen S. Burmeister

"The VII Ray (Seventh Ray) embodies the quality or principle that coordinates and unifies the inner quality and the outer tangible form or appearance.  This is its true magical work through Law and Order.  This Lord of the Law and Order, whose powerful energy is now coming in and making its pressure felt, has a peculiar power on our physical plane,  for there is a close numerical interrelation between the Seventh Ray and the Seventh Plane, which is the physical,  just as the Seventh Root Race will see complete conformity to, and a perfect expression of, Law and Order.  We are now in the fifth root-race, approaching the sixth, and in the seventh we shall see the fruition of our efforts of today.

As the reflection of the First Ray of Will and Power, the power of the Seventh Ray is inherent in Physical Matter.  We need only to think of the power stored in the very atom, in mountains, volcanoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes.  However, according to D. K. (Djwhal Khul) these forces of nature can and will ultimately be geared toward a higher purpose and used constructively and harmlessly.*

The first powerful effects of the Seventh Ray energies are changes along the line of destroying crystallized forms in order to release the true values hidden in the forms, which are law and order and peaceful coexistence.**  Through the Lord of the Seventh Ray, the will aspect of Divinity becomes expressed and focused on earth as He brings into objective manifestation - by an act of will - both spirit and matter, with the help of the Third Ray of Active Intelligence, which expresses itself through humanity and its individual members."

Here, too, we can sense the purpose of this great Lord of Ray VII in excerpts of a mantra that D. K. gave us to ponder:  

"Let the Temple of the Lord be built...

Seven great sons of God took their seats

The work of building thus began

The light shone dim

The seven were silent 

and their forms were veiled

between the seven Forms and the work went on

The door was opened and the door was shut.

Each time it opened, the power

within the temple grew; 

Each time the light waxed stronger,

its walls, its decorations emerged

The Word went forth.

Open the door to all the sons of men who come

and seek the temple of the Lord.

Give them the light..Sound forth the

Word . ..creative and raise the dead to life..

the craftsmen are prepared.  

God has created in the light

His sons can now create.

Let the work proceed.

Let the sons of God create..."

To create the temple of the Lord, through  building the right "thought-forms", seems to be our responsibility now. D.K. points out that the need is great for a sound teaching concerning the laws of thought and the rules that govern the building of those thought-forms that must embody the ideas that emanate from the Universal Mind.  We must begin on the subjective planes  of life to work out the needed order.  Then, when that is realized, we shall have every important group of people engaged in world affairs and aided by trained thinkers, so that at the right application and correct adjustment to the plan will eventuate.  In A Treatise on White Magic we can learn all about building the right thought-forms.  One by one we undergo the esoteric and spiritual counter-part of what is called "a mental test."   That test will demonstrate a person's usefulness in mental work and power and will show the capacity to build thought-forms, to vitalize them, and so to enter the temple as a creative worker, aiding the magical work of the Temple Guardian, the Lord of the Seventh Ray.

In our solar system, the energies of the Seventh Ray are transmitted by way of Aries, Cancer and Capricorn, reaching our Earth primarily through the sacred planet Uranus. Of  this triangle of zodiacal signs, Capricorn is today the controlling factor, as the Capricornian energy produces the overcoming of materialism and leads to the mountaintop, to initiation.

This Ray Lord builds through the power of thought; and so are we at lower levels building a new civilization through our thinking and objectifying our ideas in outer manifestation. 

The sense of hearing corresponds in a peculiar way to the Seventh Ray.  "Through the Word of Power the worlds came into ordered being and the Lord of the Ray of Ceremonial Magic brings about the organization of this divine organism.  "This is the Ray that makes a human being delight in "all things done decently and in order and according to rule and precedent."  The main work of the Seventh Ray might be seen in the spiritualizing of the forms, and it is this principal of fusion, or coordination and blending, that is active every time a soul comes into incarnation and a child is born on earth.

Now that we have glimpsed a little of the functioning of these most powerful streams of divine energy on cosmic, solar planetary and human levels, what do they really mean to us  The Tibetan Master gives us the answer;  "The goal of evolution for humanity is to become consciously and lovingly aware of the nature of these energies and begin to know and use them....Even a dim perception of that vast aggregation of intelligent Forces . . . will serve to bring into clearer light the realization that our solar system and consequently our earth and we ourselves are part of this immense interrelation of energies and forces  "Because these forces are, we are, because They persist, we persist; because They move in form and space and time, we do the same."
