A Symbol of Joy and Strength

The following remarks were broadcast on the Triangles Webinar on April 24, 2017

In a time of planetary tension such as the present it’s very heartening to note how effective so many people are becoming at maintaining a focus and alignment with a positive world view based on respect for the planet and for their fellow human beings. This view will be given full display at the global People’s Climate March on April 29th. 

Under the impress of the incoming seventh ray energies people everywhere are mobilizing and organizing in alignment with the Plan as they sense it and know it.  There is power in this mobilized effort that enables potent energies to pour through large bodies of people who are aligned and working in a spirit of goodwill and a sense of responsibility for their fellow human beings and the Earth.  And Triangles workers recognize that what’s occurring is not only an effort of mobilizaton upon the physical plane in marches and rallies in support of diverse causes of human concern, but this mobilization and organization extends to also include the spiritualetheric planes, the plane of causes from which all outer change emanates.  And it is in this inner organizational effort, this organization of thought, that the Triangles network has a real role to play.  

When we consider the work of Triangles, it’s helpful to expand our understanding of the ramifications of this work by pondering the basic triangles to which it is related. We can hold here are a few basic triangles that we can hold in our consciousness as we work within this etheric substance that interpenetrates all things. At this time of the higher interlude period of the spiritual year, for example, it’s helpful to be reminded that each of the three festivals of  Aries, Taurus and Gemini corresponds to one of the three aspects of the basic planetary triangle of Shamballa, Hierarchy and Humanity.   Easter is the festival in which Hierarchy is celebrated, it is after all the festival of the risen Christ, the head of the spiritual Hierarchy.  The Wesak festival which we will be celebrating on May 10th, is the festival most closely associated with Shamballa, as the Lord Buddha, the Messenger from the East, leaves his high abode in Shamballa and at great sacrifice, brings to humanity a blessing or a touch of the energy of the highest spiritual will.  And then at the final or culminating Gemini full moon, we celebrate Humanity aspiring towards God when the World Teacher, the God-Man, releases the blessing received from the Buddha and held in trust for the entire month and pours it out all humanity at the exact time of the Gemini full moon. 

These three planetary centers constitute the planetary head, heart and throat centers and find their correspondence in the individual in the Monad, soul and personality.  And this Triangle divine which we essentially are is replicated in our individual etheric body in the head, heart and throat centers, affirming the reality of the aphorisms “as above, so below.” Another important planetary center is of course that formed by the collective body known as the group of world servers which stands as the ajna center, a subset or higher correspondence of the throat center of humanity.   And, as in the case of an individual, this center is the agent through which the inpouring forces are distributed through the network as a whole.  A  recognition of these few basic centers governing our world and our mechanism serves to empower our sense of interrelatedness, of wholeness, our recognition of the sense that we are a part of something much bigger than ourselves and that through this energetic interconnectedness flows life, livingness, spiritual vitality.  

The Triangles network is a harmonizing, bridging mechanism within the planetary etheric whereby the potent energies from these higher spiritual centers can be stepped down through the vehicles of all members and charged into those radiant strands and those connecting cables of energy that can, in their turn, empower the outer groups--fortifying and standing with them so that they can do the difficult work of manifestation that it is their task to do.  The effectiveness of the outer push that is now demonstrating in the world--despite the obstacles-- is a clear indication that the channel of which the Triangles work is a part is growing and releasing its radiance in ever widening arcs. This is the work of those who constitute the heart center of the group of world servers.

As people are waking up there is a lot of joy and humor being released-- and also strength.  It’s said in fact that upon the inner planes there is a symbol forming within the aura of the group of world servers.  This symbol, it’s said, will precipitate when the time is ripe and it will then become visible to the spiritual Hierarchy and will stand as an affirmation of successful work.  It’s said that in the past the spiritual workers were symbolized by the cross and the “cup of sorrow and agony.”  But this is changing now and  this symbol will be replaced by a symbol that will be representative of joy and strength.  It’s interesting to ponder what this symbol might be.  The Tibetan wrote,  “Instead of sorrow we shall have a joy which will work out in happiness and lead eventually to bliss.  We shall have a strength which will know naught but victory and will not recognise disaster“ (The Rays and the Initiations, p. 234).  We don’t know what this symbol is but surely it is precipitating now.

It’s helpful to step back, away from the media frenzy and high alerts that we have become so accustomed to and during this special time of year in the lead up to the Wesak Festival attune ourselves to another type of tension--a spiritual tension and inner recollectedness.  Through means of this inner tension we can establish a state of mind that will enable us to be of use to Hierarchy in the meeting of human need, distributing the blessing of the Buddha to all humanity and all life forms on May 10th at 5:42 pm (New York), 10:42 pm (London), and 23:42 (Geneva).
