The Ageless Wisdom teaches us that our Earth humanity
is millions of years old, that man emerged as a being initially
almost indistinguishable from an animal yet, spiritually and from
his first appearance, far, far above the animal state. Though human
beings are, essentially, high, spiritual entities, for the majority
of their millions of years of evolutionary development, the average
member of the human race has wandered the Earth in the depths of
ignorance, unable to contact the heights of the soul and Spirit
residing deeply within. Yet, during those untold aeons, humanity
has not been left to its often desperate plight unsupervised and
unattended. From the very first, great angelic Beings known as Solar
Angels have brought the Light Divine to the nascent human consciousness,
shining light and love upon the Path which would one day lead the
members of the human race into the realization of the heavenly worlds
and the discovery of themselves as truly spiritual beings whose
true home lies in the realms of Light, Love and Spiritual Fire.
Ever so slowly, the humanity of Earth has awakened to the inner
guidance provided by their celestial Mentors, the Solar Angels,
and to the Light, Love and Wisdom which more advanced and experienced
human beings (the great Sages and Rishis who begin their evolutionary
adventure in earlier cycles) have sought to convey through the impartation
of the Mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven. The Ageless Wisdom—the
Gift of ‘Heaven’—has always been presented to
humanity in one form or another, and always the members of the Fourth
Kingdom, the Human Kingdom, have been offered the opportunity (singly
and in groups) to step through the Pillars of Wisdom and thus participate
in the Life Divine beyond the Sacred Portal of Initiation.
On this beautiful planet of “releasing sorrow and purifying
pain”, humanity is learning the great lesson of harmonizing
the great Pairs of Opposites—the positive and negative, the
impressive and receptive, the ever-present, deeply distressing and
inescapable contradictions encountered by all self-conscious beings
living in the lower three worlds. The two Sacred Pillars (one symbolically
light and the other dark) represent these Opposites and the opportunity
to reconcile them in harmony and beauty. The Pillars also suggest
the sign Gemini (through the influence of which the great Solar
Angels came to Earth) and also the number eleven—the number
of the Initiate, of the sign of the Great White Brotherhood—the
Spiritual Hierarchy of our planet.
Now, on the threshold of entering both a greater and lesser Age
of Aquarius, humanity is poised to step through those Pillars. We,
the human race, stand in large numbers on the point of redemption,
illumination and liberation—IF we can understand the nature
of our opportunity and “seize the day” that is now with
us. It is of the greatest importance for the members of the human
race to realize the existence of the Great Portal, of the Pillars
which beckon all souls striving for the Light, Love and Life which
are the birthright of every human Spirit. The age-old Quest for
“Life more abundant” can now be fulfilled if the disciples,
spiritually-minded people of the world and men and women of goodwill
will only recognize their opportunity and do all within their power
to advance towards the magnificent Pillars and, together, pass through
into the Light, Love and Life of Hierarchy-becoming more than mere
human beings—becoming, in fact, members of the Fifth Kingdom
of Nature—the Kingdom of Souls.
We invite you all to our forthcoming Seven Ray Institute/University
of the Seven Rays Conference, from April 25th through May 3rd of
2009. The Conference, based upon the sacred number eleven and, therefore,
also upon the number two—numbers which will impress upon us
the reality of the Spiritual Hierarchy of our planet and the opportunity
for the human race to become cognizant of that Hierarchy, and to
begin participating in a higher form of human living which Hierarchy
seeks to see instituted upon the Earth, taking the place of the
many unnecessarily tragic chapters through which the benighted human
race has passed.
The Pillars of Wisdom loom ahead. The Hierarchy calls. The promise
of “Love Eternal, Light Supernal and Peaceful Silent Will”
summons all awakening human beings to fulfill their individual spiritual
quest and, thus, help the struggling human race fulfill its far
greater, aeonial Quest for the Light, Love and Power which only
the Spiritual Hierarchy can confer. Each of us (already a spiritual
Pilgrim from the time immemorial when we descended into incarnation
as a Spirit from the higher realms) can become a conscious Pilgrim
determined to pass through the sacred Pillars towards the “Heart
of the Sun” (the source of inspiration for all Spiritual Hierarchies
within our solar system). Through the Pillars of Wisdom, towards
us from “the other side”—Light, Love and Life
are streaming. Let us, arm in arm, as a band of Brother and Sisters,
inspired by the Spirit within, learn to pass through those Pillars—together.
