Today our Earth, from whose Logos we derive life, movement and being, unites, in the incipit of Aquarius, sign of the Server and Service, with Pluto, powerful planet of the first Ray, connected with Will and Power.
Pluto is the destroyer of old forms that are no longer related to the ascending energies and therefore, in the next 20 years in which it transits in Aquarius, the sign of The New Age that is comingwill operate as the Agent of Divine Purpose to clear the field of those obsolete mental structures that create, within Humanityobstacles to the growth of the first shoots of a new thought that must produce, in the cycle, the emergence of a New Culture and Civilization.
The Disciples of the World will therefore be called to confront, with determination and deference, that aspect of the Will which, destroying forms, liberates lives and annihilates death.
“This energy of will is the most potent energy in the whole scheme of planetary existence. It is called the ‘Shamballa Force’ and it is the one that holds all things in life together. It is, in fact, life itself. This vital force or divine will (which implements divine intention) is that by means of which Sanat Kumara reaches his goal.” (Alice A. Bailey, The Rays and the Initiations, p. 715)
To affirm that Humanity is Will, the energy of itself ShamballaThe energy by which the Lord of the World accomplishes His purpose appears at first sight disproportionate when we view human affairs as they appear through the flood of news that reaches us through the various channels of information. We must then resolve to call upon our subtler vehicles, that we may Observe and listen to the din of the world with the eyes and ears of the heart.through which we can perceive the growing intensity of the invocative force of Humanity and the power and dignity of this glorious third planetary center of ours, that fourth Hierarchy creator of human Monads which is called “of the Initiates.”
Let us then first of all be reassured by the Master of Agni Yoga who says: “There is no obstacle that cannot be overcome by human will. I do not say this as a consolation or encouragement, but as something immutable. (…)” (Agni Yoga SeriesAgni Yoga § 393)
In fact, knowing that everything is One, it is worth remembering that each level of consciousness contains the lower ones and is contained in the higher ones, and therefore Humanity, endowed with the three “periodic vehicles” that make it what it is (Monad, Soul and Personality), is in fact also a participant in the two great planetary centers (Shamballa and Hierarchy), with which he gradually identifies himself.
Furthermore, the Teachings tell us that the Will will only be fully realized in the next Solar System, while in the current one its impact is mediated by the energy of Love that this System must reach, and that is why it is exciting to think that, by seeking to identify ourselves with that energy, we are already preparing future developments that our mind cannot even imagine.
“Will governs the Path to Shamballa and is the basis of all approach, appreciation and identification with the Self. This developed will expresses itself as tension, understood esoterically. It embodies the ideas of direction, relentless determination, the ability to wait and to maintain intention and direction unaltered by whatever may occur.“(Alice A. Bailey, The Rays and the Initiations, p. 46)
In the Lambdoma of Ideas/Life we have defined the Will as ““The Agent of Life” and it is precisely through the reverberation of the Will that we are able to distill from our lives that we begin to build the antahkarana bridge that consciously connects first the Personality with the Soul and then the Soul with the Monad.
Today, this conscious work of building and connecting with the divine is being carried out tenaciously by the Disciples of the world who, also stimulated by the proximity of the key hierarchical date of 2025, are recognizing themselves in a unique entityunited in purpose, where the diversity of the ways of operating represent so many luminous paths that lead all Men of Good Will to the common center: universal Brotherhood. Their invocation and fervent commitment also begin to evoke the response of that Center where the Will of God is knownthat stimulates he Small wills of men.
The sparks of divine Will, which the Hierarchy translates into the Plan, are in fact already taking root in the Human center through New group of world serversin which those who have assumed the honor and the burden have formulated, in response, a Plan of Love and Lightnourished by their own lives and imprinted on the common consciousness.
According Esoteric AstrologyThe first Ray of Will comes from the star Merak in the Big Dipper and flows into our Solar System through three signs of the zodiac: Aries, Leo and Capricorn.
- Aries It is the constellation through which the initiating conditions will flow towards our Solar System. It embodies the will to create that which will express the will to do good.
- Leo is the constellation through which the will to achieve or attain is poured out into humanity and the planet. It is essentially the spirit of self-determination. It is first of all the determination of the small self, the personality, the self-conscious individual. It is then the determination of the Self, the soul, the group-conscious individual, conscious of the greater Whole and of itself as part, integrated and basically one. (Its THis will to good, demonstrated (in the initiation processes).
- Capricorn is the constellation through which comes the conquering will that frees man from formal life and initiates him into the realm where the will aspect (not the soul aspect) of divinity is expressed.
In summary: Aries, the Initiator, Leo, the Being and Capricorn, the Transfiguring Agent. (Excerpts fromEsoteric Astrology by AA Bailey, p. 620/621)
This ternary of zodiacal energies of great power configures the path that leads individuals, groups and all Humanity to Initiation and the Mysteries.
“The Mysteries are inseparable from the Will, that is, from Power. They confer power because they teach how to use the Will. Conversely, the candidate qualifies as such precisely when he begins to understand their mystery. The crossing of the Threshold is accomplished by an act of the Will itself, not because it is drawn by a benevolent higher force. At that frontier, forces are sublimated into energies, and this implies the abandonment of desire as a driving force, replaced by responsible free will… How can we teach the student the difference between a vague aspiration, however sincere, and the use of the Will? How can we put into his hands the key to that Door which mere desire is incapable of opening? At that juncture, when the disciple is almost ready, the Master's capacity is revealed, and He is called upon to give His best. He must lead the student from the semi-conscious use of desire, which acts only in the world of becoming, to the practical exercise of the Will, which lives in the world of being. This is done at the Threshold, where the student pauses until he has learned. The lesson is fundamental, but it is expressed in a few words: “Not my will, but Thine, be done.”(Enzio Savoini, Notes from the 3rd classThird Septennium. Mysteries, (unpublished article, June 2001)
And also:
“(…) It is also said that man triumphs when he merges with the Higher Will. People assume that the power of their Master is limited, but each Master has his own Master, and the Higher Will is the harmony of many consciousnesses. When We say: “Let us build the future,” we mean that your will must be harmonized with Ours. Even the highest structure can fall when earthly will tries to damage the foundations! (…) The Master can create a better future, but the disciple must realize and accept it. (…) (Agni Yoga SeriesSupermundane § 185)
As the Teachings say, “the Kingdom of Heaven must be taken by force”: first the force of Desire, then that of Aspiration, and finally that of Will, the energy that the Master of Agni Yoga calls “The bowstring of consciousness. And the path is always the same, at all levels: the Greater grows while the Lesser declines, identifying itself with That. Thus, in an incredibly simple, though apparently not easy, way, the process of evolution is accomplished and one is admitted into the great Service, which presupposes the courage to work creatively for the Infinite, in the joy of self-sacrifice: “Thy will be done!”
Then the link with the Hierarchy becomes indissoluble, and the door of the Fiery World of Initiation opens before the impulse of the Will to Good of the World Server, who consciously goes to occupy that 'place of fire' at the summit of the great Pyramid, where Heaven and Earth, the solar and human powers connect and the Union is affirmed.
We can then affirm, with clear conscience, that Humanity is will.
“(…) The cosmos and our will symbolize the affirmation of Seity. And the freedom of the will is nothing but a great possibility for the manifestation of the human spirit. When the Fire of Space directs the consciousness towards the Infinite, then the impetuous flow of energy intensifies. When isolation ceases, then fusion is directed towards the Infinite. In all Space there is a single pulse, and the Law of the Cosmos is one for all that exists. Creation is designed for all affirmed lives and for all Space.
The far worlds are our manifested path. The far worlds are our illumination. The far worlds are our visions of the powerful vision of the World Mother. The human spirit seeking expansion finds the far worlds manifested. Let us say that the unattainable can become attainable and that deprivation can become wealth. Therefore, let us direct our will towards the Infinite, in all its beauty. (Agni Yoga SeriesInfinite I § 61)
