The Soul expresses the Characteristics of a Ray, and the Personality Rays express the distortions of those Characteristics. When the Master D.K. gives examples of Ray Glamours in Glamour: a World Problem, He is describing the distortions of the Soul's Characteristics by the Personality Rays. It should be noted that in this section of the book, the Master D.K. uses the term, Glamour, preceding His listing of Ray Glamours, to include Mental Illusions and Etheric Maya.
For example, a 3rd Ray Soul would initiate "the systematic adaptation of all knowledge and of all means to the end in view. It is, in fact, the process of the utilisation of the many for the use of the one..." (1) whereas a 3rd Ray Personality would be involved in a number of activities and interests which, may or may not, have a specific end goal other than the accumulation of knowledge.

There are Masters on the 1st and 3rd Rays in the 2nd Ray Ashram of the Master D.K, Who are working under His overall jurisdiction. It seems reasonable to think that 1st and 3rd Ray Masters would bring a diversity of Ray energies and experience into a 2nd Ray Ashram to assist in the training needs of disciples with 1st and 3rd Ray Souls who will, at some stage, possibly after the 3rd Initiation, be transferred into their respective 1st and 3rd Ray Ashrams.
I think it is equally reasonable to think that 1st and 3rd Ray Ashrams will have Masters on Rays other than the primary Ray of the Ashram. It seemed to me that this Ray diversification would bring about a closer and more dynamic integration of the Hierarchy rather than each Ashram with only Masters from one particular Ray, creating, effectively, Ashramic silos. C.P. I had assumed the 'Raja Yoga' the Master D.K. references throughout His books refer to the techniques unique to that particular form of yoga, such as expounded in sections of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. It has only dawned on me lately that the 'Raja Yoga' He refers to has nothing to do with posture, breathwork and emotional equanimity, or any specific religious Practice. Instead, it has to do with emotional idealism and mental creativity, and the inspiration that emerges from an integrated, self-actualizing Personality. More specifically, it has to do with Triadal[i] Inspiration impacting the consciousness of such a Personality. In this context, I believe Raja Yoga is already being widely practised by scientists, economists, educators, politicians, entrepreneurs and philanthropists, and numerous individuals in whom the Kama-Manas Unit[ii] is active and creative and the Buddhi-Manas[iii] is active.
C.P. [i] The Highest Self as a Being, focussing the Will/Purpose aspects of that Being [ii] Desire/Aspiration plus Intellect/Cognition [iii] Buddhi-Manas: Intuition/Holistic Knowledge I have come to understand that the Buddhi-Manas[i] and the Kama-Manas[ii] can, at a certain stage in evolution, be seen as two separate Units. Each Unit is undergoing its own process of Integration, aided by the assigned Solar Angel[iii] and other benign, external Entities. The Buddhi-Manas Unit becomes a vehicle for the Monad-Atma[iv] Unit, while the Kama-Manas Unit becomes a vehicle for Ahamkara, the personality-ego. For a great deal of the evolutionary cycle, they are magnetically repulsive towards each other. At a certain stage, an Attraction Event brings both Units momentarily into relation, into alignment. From that time onward a magnetically attractive Channel of Consciousness, which we call the Antakarana, is then tenuously established and an Attraction Factor or an Attraction Event between the two Units then occurs at progressively shorter intervals.
A problem that can arise with the evolutionary development of both Units is the 'disinterest' of the Solar Angel assigned. The Solar Angel can be so repulsed by the quality of the Kama-Manas Unit that It focuses on the development of the Buddhi-Manas Unit, to the exclusion of the Kama-Manas Unit. It should be noted that forms of 'rebellion' exist even at the level of the Solar Angels. This 'rebellious' quality is related to the activity of 4th Ray Radiation. The work of the personality-ego, Ahamkara, in the upgrading of the Kama-Manas Unit then becomes much harder to manage, both in stabilising itself and in then re-orienting itself towards a sublime Ideation, the Buddhi-Manas Unit. It should be noted that between the Buddhi-Manas Unit and the Kama-Manas Unit there develops an Egoic Lotus[v] and its consequent Radiance, which we call the Causal Body. It is formed and developed as a consequence of the on-going magnetic attraction between the Buddhi-Manas Unit and the Kama-Manas Unit aided by the continued interest of the assigned Solar Angel and other benign, external Entities.

In my previous post, On the effect of Words and Ideas, I spoke of a "vortex of Spiritual Tension" being a "conduit for inspiration" which, when held renders a group a "dynamic centre." [i] But how is this vortex of Spiritual Tension generated within a group? What steps are required to hold it? And how is such a dynamic centre of use to the Hierarchy? In order to create and sustain a vortex of spiritual tension, the individuals in a group must be well on the way to embodying the principle of group unity. The Master DK speaks of achieving group unity "through thought, exoteric knowledge of each other, and a constant sending forth of love." [ii] While AAB says of group unity that it is not merely the "absence of quarrelling" but rather "unity of thinking." [iii] Thus group unity is a trans-personal aspect of mind, capable of reaching and maintaining a point of tension, fostered by a recognition of the faults and virtues of group members, a non-critical environment demonstrated by group members relating to each other as Souls, and a contemplative atmosphere nurturing periods of prolonged, purposeful, unified thought. [iv] Eventually, this point of tension must bring forth purposeful activity. The Master D.K. tells us that "group unity is the first effort of the group of every Master," [v] and that, along with group activity and contemplation, it is one of the three things required for the Ashrams of the Hierarchy to externalise.

[ii] Discipleship in the New Age 1, Alice A. Bailey, Lucis Publishing Company pp. 13 [iii] AAB Talks 11/01/1946, The School for Esoteric Studies [iv] Lack of group unity would be evidenced by the bringing down of the spiritual tension of the group by one or more of its members. [v] Discipleship in the New Age 1, Alice A. Bailey, Lucis Publishing Company pp. 9 Having been a student of the works of Alice Bailey for many years, I have often wondered what role the Masters of the Spiritual Hierarchy, the Divine Council[i], would take when some of Them appear in the material world. I had concluded that, initially, They would not be active on the National or International stage but would rather be working behind the scenes, acting as focal points and conduits of buddhic energy[ii] which would enable their Disciples and Initiates, some of whom are in prominent positions, to carry forward their agreed Projects in line with the Divine Plan for all the kingdoms of nature, not just for humanity. The Tibetan Master tells us that, after some the Masters have incarnated and have embedded Their Projects, the Christ, the Head of the Divine Council, will Himself incarnate as the Aquarian World Teacher,[iii] and age which lasts approximately 2160 years.
When the Christ last appeared over 2000 years ago, He only remained with humanity for a very short period of time, and focused His Project in the Holy Land, as His destiny intended. But what of His next appearance? I used to believe that in this incarnation, His role would be that of a prominent figure on the National or the International stage, and His impact would be greater and more immediate. But now I do not. Given the current state of World politics, the economic situation and rampant materialism, I do not believe such a high profile role would be practicable nor successful. Like the Masters who had previously incarnated, I now believe The Christ would act as a focal point, a conduit for atmic energy[iv], enabling Him to initiate more long term goals in line with the Purpose of the Supreme Council[v]. He will also subjectively aid specific disciples and initiates under His jurisdiction, in their respective Projects. His work would therefore be far more subjective than objective during the Aquarian Age. There is much debate as to when the Aquarian Age begins. Some esotericists believe it began at the end of World War II; others say it will start some 100 years from now. The Tibetan doesn't give us a start date. Some light on the timing of appearance of the Masters and The Christ in the material world may be gleaned from passages from "Esoteric Psychology" vol.1 and "Esoteric Astrology" by Alice Bailey. In those works, the Tibetan Master tell us that there are three decanates in Aquarius, and that during the first decanate, governed by the planet Saturn, there will be "a dividing of the ways" and humanity will be given the opportunity to undergo a period of self-discipline. It will also present aspirants to discipleship with the opportunity to face difficult situations and crises which will gradually engender higher levels of Personality integration, with a consequent deeper sense of purpose and creativity in their respective fields of service. Astrologers tells us this cycle of activity will last some 720 years. The Tibetan goes on to say that in the second decanate, ruled by the planet Mercury, the incoming Light will bring about mental and spiritual illumination and enable greater numbers of disciples to bring about a closer fusion between their Personality and the Higher Self. They will also gain an esoteric perspective on World history as they come to understand "the significance of events, and to relate the old and the new, the past and the future through the light of the present[vi]." The Tibetan also tell us that there will be a more accurate interpretation of the Ancient Mysteries such as those given to humanity in the works of Helena Blavatsky, Alice Bailey and others. This period will also last some 720 years. Referencing the third decanate of Aquarius, governed by the planet Venus, the Tibetan Master tell us that if the aspirants, disciples and initiates have measured up to their opportunity in the two previous decanates, a vast numbers of individuals will be seeking to attain and express higher states of consciousness, the group and not the individual, will become the focus of their attention, and co-operation will gradually take the place of competition. It seems to me that if the goals of the Divine Council, as expressed by the Tibetan regarding the decanates of Aquarius, are to be fulfilled, we will need many Aspirants, Disciples and Initiates in incarnation during the 1st decanate. To increase, and then stabilise the forces and energies available during this period, we will also need more of the Masters in incarnation at strategic locations across the globe. It seems reasonable to believe that during this decanate, The Christ will also need to be in incarnation, initially working behind the scenes. If the purpose of the Divine Council is to be realised for the Aquarian Age, the Christ may need take His place on the World Stage and implement His short term Projects during the first decanate. If that were not possible, He would have to decide whether it was worth appearing as a prominent individual at all. If He does so, I do not believe He will remain so for long. And when His Mission is complete, He will make His way to the place where His destiny calls Him. C.P. Footnotes: [i] The Divine Council plans and guides the evolution of all Nature’s Kingdoms, including the Human. It is made up of a group of individuals called the Masters of the Wisdom, who are “those members of humanity who have triumphed over matter, who have achieved the goal of self-mastery by the same path that individuals tread today. These spiritual personalities have wrestled and fought for victory and mastery upon the physical plane, and struggled with the miasmas, fogs, and dangers, troubles and sorrows of everyday living.” They are the custodians of the Divine Plane, which is implemented by its agents and disciples. Lucis Trust [ii] The energy of Buddhi is the energy of the intuition. “Intuition is a comprehensive grip of the principle of universality, and when it is functioning there is, momentarily at least, a complete loss of the sense of separateness. At its highest point, it is…an identification with all beings” “Intuition is light itself, and when it is functioning, the world is seen as light and the light bodies of all forms become gradually apparent. This brings with it the ability to contact the light centre in all forms, and thus again an essential relationship is established and the sense of superiority and separateness recedes into the background.” Alice Bailey, Esoteric Psychology, Vol. II, pp. 125 - 133 [iii] Each world period has had a World Teacher. Mithra was the world teacher for the age of Taurus, while the Buddha was the world teacher for the Age of Aries. The Christ was the World Teacher for the Piscean Age and, for the first time, will take on the role for a second age, the Age of Aquarius. [iv] Atmic energy is the energy of the divine Will. It is an expression of the “dynamic electrical energy of life itself, of embodied Purpose expressing through evolutionary manifestation” throughout all the Kingdoms of Nature and Humanity.

It is located at Shamballa, which is a state of supremely high-grade consciousness, anchored over the Gobi Desert. The Head of the Council, Sanat Kumara, is referred to as the Lord of the World. His Will and Purpose is transmitted to the Divine Council for implementation. [vi] Esoteric Astrology; Alice Ann Bailey; Lucis Publishing Companies; p149 Seed thought for this post:
"Sometimes giving forth one's ideas may unduly influence a group." When in a position of power or influence, or when one is a source of power or an 'influencer', attention must be paid to the potency of one's words, and the effect they have on others. Whether it be through force or status, love or trust, respect or erudition, or simply being a leader in one’s field (whatever area in life that field may encompass), the esteem in which one is held imparts a gravitas to one's words and ideas which can stifle free and original thought in those for whom one is a leader, educator, or motivator. It is thus essential, when one occupies a position of influence, be that spiritually or materially, to encourage freedom of thought. One must learn to guide by cultivating an atmosphere of mental exploration, allowing failure and reflection on failure, encouraging analysis and the recognition of things as they are, and prompting self-analysis and understanding to clarify ones motivations, unconscious biases, and hindrances to clear vision. The cultivation of these tools engenders a gradual mental polarisation in one’s group which, coupled with periodic exhortations to contemplative thought, bring about a vortex of spiritual tension through which true inspiration can occur. It is essential that one learns "to recognise these unusual moments of tension, and to hold them."[i] When these moments are recognised and held, a conduit for inspiration is created, and the group becomes a dynamic centre. The Master DK spoke a potent truth when he said that "light will shine into a mind that is self-controlled and free from the mental dominance of another's mind"[ii]: whether that be the mind of a Master or Adept, or simply the mind of one held in esteem by another. It is hard to resist the temptation to give answers, to interject when others pause in silence in what seems like non-comprehension, to create an atmosphere of personality worship by speaking ex-cathedra. But opportunity and growth come by allowing others to make their own path towards truth, by being a source of inspiration, and by being a beacon of light and strength. E.C.

Having read Helena Blavatsky, Nicolas and Helena Roerich, Alice Bailey and Manly P. Hall over the years, I began searching on YouTube for particular subjects they had covered in their works such as Giants, Angels and the Hollow Earth. What I discovered was these authors weren't the only ones commenting on these subjects: American evangelical Christian teachers and were too, and had posted numerous videos and blogs. To name but a few of the researchers on the subject of Giants: Tim Alberino, Steve Quayle, Dr Tom Horn, Dr Michael Heiser, Jim Wilhelmsen, Gary Wayne and Chuck Missler. Also Jim Viera who is not an evangelical Christian. Many evangelical teachers believe authors such as Sir Frances Bacon[i] and those on esoteric subjects such as Helena Blavatsky are the agents of Satan and the fallen Angels. They believe that while Blavatsky et al, have been perfectly correct on a number of esoteric issues, even clarifying such issues, they have been able to do so because they are agents of Satan, for his knowledge is vast and he will attempt to pre-empt and subvert God's Plan in any way he can. For example, Alice Bailey's and the Roerichs' teachings on the return of the Christ is seen as the coming of the Anti-Christ and the Beast from the Book of Revelation, while Frances Bacon's New Atlantis is "...in many ways...a manifesto of the secret society, a public confession, though concealed in a parlance that was known only by the initiated concerning the construction of the Utopian, Christian society that would be ruled by a pagan, philosophic priesthood dedicated to the doctrine and execution of the Luciferian agenda." [ii] Concerning the Giants, Helena Blavatsky, in her book, The Secret Doctrine, gave a great deal of information. She stated that much of humankind had been of great size, and had existed on the Earth for millions of years. She said that the lack of evidence of skeletal remains was due to the fact that up until some 80,000-100,000 years ago, cremation had been the norm, and after, any remains would have been eroded by the oceans. She noted that humankind, with exceptions, had physical bodies up to 60 feet tall, reducing in size until they were between 15 - 20 feet by the time of the last major sinking of the Ruta and Daitya Islands of the Atlantean continent, some 850,000 years ago. She also states there were Atlantean's on the Earth 11,000 years ago, though she does not give their height. [iii] According to Blavatsky, the height of humankind have been steadily decreasing ever since. Many evangelical teachers also believe there were Giants in antediluvian times - and in more recent times. Their views of the history and the nature of the Giants in no way correspond to those of Blavatsky. They base their belief on several passages found in The Bible, and on related passages from apocryphal works such as 1 Enoch, Jasher, Jubilees and the Book of Giants from the Dead Sea Scrolls. Genesis 6:4, (N.I.V.[iv]) reads: "The Nephilim were on the earth in those days - and also afterward - when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown." The "days" referred to are the days before and after the Flood of Noah. Another source of information on Giants for evangelical teachers is a book written by G.H. Pember, an evangelical Christian himself, entitled, Earth's Earliest Ages, originally published in 1884. To understand the term Nephilim, we need look at two passages from The Bible, relating to the time when Moses sent his men to explore the land of Caanan. A passage from Numbers 13:33 (N.I.V.) reads, "We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them." And from Deuteronomy 1:28 (N.L.T. [v]) "Where can we go? Our brothers have demoralised us with their report. They tell us, "The people of the land are taller and more powerful than we are, and their towns are large, with walls rising high into the sky! We even saw giants there - the descendants of Anak!" The Nephilim were therefore very large in size, Giants even. Most Hebrew scholars understand the term "sons of God", the benei ha'Eloihim in Hebrew, as referring to Angels.[vi] Reading the passage in Genesis 6:4 therefore leads most evangelical teachers to conclude that the Angels, two hundred of them according to 1 Enoch 7:7, had left their realm and descended to the material world and mated with human women and produced the Nephilim. According to 1 Enoch 8:1-8, these fallen Angels taught their wives and the Nephilim how to forge swords and make body armour, how to mine and to use various metals, and how to apply make up and make jewellery from precious stones and metals. They also taught them astronomy and astrology, the magical arts and gave to them secret occult knowledge. Forbidden knowledge which was then passed on to humankind. In summary: the fallen Angels had effectively corrupted the human gene pool against God's Will, and their progeny, the Nephilim, malevolent and destructive, had wreaked havoc on humankind. [vii] God, seeing the havoc, and the corruption of humankind, caused a Great Deluge to cover the Earth. He saved only Noah, his three sons and their wives because they had not been corrupted. There has been much debate amongst evangelical teachers as to how the Nephilim were present after the Flood as stated in Genesis 6:4. Some say they hid in underground tunnels while other claim there was a second Angelic incursion. Evangelical teachers point to Matthew 24:37 (N.I.V.): "As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man." and say we are living in times comparable to "the days of Noah." In the End Times. And some of them also believe that the race of Giants called the Nephilim, are preparing to return to the surface of the Earth from the tunnels underground where they have lived for millennia. It is obvious that occult information is no longer the preserve of those interested or directly involved in New Age movements and mystery schools but is now being widely disseminated, in a reversed and corrupted form, by evangelical teachers, online, to their congregations, and to the wider Christian world. Below are a few videos from influential sources on the subject of Giants: Dr Tom Horn, Tim Alberino & Steve Quayle Dr Michael Heiser Gary Wayne Jim Wilhelmsen Chuck Missler Jim Viera Ryan Pitterson 1 & 2 C.P.

[vi] Dr Michael Heiser (YouTube Video) [vii] 1 Enoch 7:13 Since 1675, when the 7th Ray[i] [ii] began its descent[iii] on to the material plane, there has been a stream of conscious and unconscious disciples from the Lodge of the Light and from the Lodge of the Darkness taking incarnation. These disciples are also magicians, in that they are able to bring about significant changes on the trans-material and the material planes in accordance with their purpose through acts of will. They have been sent into incarnation from both the Lodges in order to implement the Plan for Planet Earth and all its kingdoms, or to forestall and to sabotage that Plan. These disciple-magicians have the potential to be all the more dangerous during this period in our history as a result of its connectivity and its technological advances. These disciple-magicians are gathering around themselves acolytes in order to strengthen and advance their positions and consolidate their hold on their respective fields of expertise. Many of those on the 4th Ray[iv] may find themselves drawn into the music and the film industries while those of the 5th Ray[v] may make their way into the fields of the sciences and technology. Those on the 2nd Ray[vi] may find themselves in the educational field, while those on the 6th Ray[vii], in the religious field. Perhaps the most powerful of these disciple-magicians are to be found on the 1st Ray[viii], in the fields of politics and government, and those on the 3rd Ray[ix], in the field of economics. It should be noted that the fields in which these disciple-magicians find themselves will not be limited to or dependent upon their Ray make-up, but also upon their life-experience during their previous incarnations. Such disciple-magicians have included Leonardo da Vinci from the Lodge of the Light, and Tomás de Torquemada from the Lodge of the Darkness during the 15th century; Abraham Lincoln and Prince Bismarck[x] [xi] [xii], respectively, during the 19th century, and Franklin D. Roosevelt and Adolf Hitler respectively in the 20th century. With the advent of these disciple-magicians and their acolytes, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, we have also seen a dramatic acceleration in the development of humankind's material productions and in their explorations of inner and of outer space. Much of this production has been for the benefit of humanity and for the other kingdoms of nature. Much has not. All around us these disciple-magicians have had, and are having, a huge impact on our lives, and will continue to do so, as we, their supporters, assist them in fulfilling their mission. C.P.

A large number of seventh ray egos or souls and also of men and women with seventh ray personalities are coming into incarnation now, and to them is committed the task of organising the activities of the new era and of ending the old methods of life and the old crystallised attitudes to life, to death, to leisure and to the population.” Alice A.
