The Externalization of the Hierarchy - Section II - The General World Picture | |||||
In connection with
the petals of the lotus, you will find a close connection with the forces of the five
kingdoms in nature; therefore, to the tabulation which was earlier given I would add the
following for your consideration: [92]
To this you may add the following: |

1. | Shamballa | Head Lotus. | Kingdom of God. Quality of Will. |
1st Ray | Will. |
2. | Hierarchy | Heart Center. | Kingdom of Souls. Quality of Giving. Love. |
2nd Ray | Love. |
3. | Humanity | Throat Center. | Kingdom of man. Quality of Acquisitiveness. |
4th Ray | Harmony through Conflict. |
4. | The Jews
|
Solar Plexus Center. | Kingdom of man. Quality of Separativeness. |
3rd Ray | Active Intelligence. |
[93] These can be linked up with the kingdoms in
nature, but in this particular cycle it is not possible to fit them in such a way that the
correspondence will appear to you as accurate. The mineral kingdom and the Forces of
Materialism do not really coincide today, for the one works through the sacral center at
this time, and the other through the center at the base of the spine. Esoteric students
must always remember that no correspondences are correct and entirely accurate in their
parallelism in this solar system of changing forces, shifting cycles and constant mutation
directed towards the inscrutable ends of Deity - inscrutable as far as the human
consciousness is concerned. They remain inscrutable to humanity, because the three major
ends or purposes which affect you, for instance, as members of the fourth kingdom in
nature are:
I put this in here only to show you how vague and uncertain are your very highest speculations. Be content with your duty and the immediate service which will lead you a step further upon the way to which you are ordained, and this way you can travel rapidly and with eager feet or slowly and with lagging steps. The above enumerated forces are, however, part of the temporary interlocking of energies which is going on between the many expressions of the creative process at this time. They are likewise conditioned by the incoming Aquarian force and "measured" by the outgoing Piscean forces. [94] I would have you note here my use of the word "forces" and "force," for not idly have I made them singular and plural. |
