A recognition of Those Who implement world affairs and Who engineer those steps which lead mankind onward towards its destined goal, plus a steadily increased recognition of the Plan on the part of the masses.
The first indication
of this massed and available energy produced coordination of the New Group of
World Servers upon the physical plane.
[Page 163]
The second indication
produced a pronounced cleavage between the forces of evil and the Forces of
Light; this cleavage resulted in the world war (1914-1945) and initiated the
seething emotional and psychic turmoil in which humanity today finds itself.
The third indication
was the release of atomic energy and the discovery of how to transmute energy
into matter and matter into energy.
The spiritual energies
have, therefore, impersonally and with a "vivid directive of pure
intent," penetrated from the highest point of spiritual purpose to the
lowest aspect of matter, the atom; they have thus proved the truth of the
statement that matter is spirit at its lowest point and spirit is matter at its
highest, and that the apparent duality is but an essential unity.
A concentration of
spiritual forces in and through the New Group of World Servers, the production
of a world conflict with its disrupting and at the same time its unifying
result, and the release of certain impressive energies in matter itself for the
benefit of all created things on Earth—these are the immediate results of the
pressure of the overshadowing spiritual resources.
These forces have
affected the spiritual and the humanitarian people of the world, blending them
into one group upon the inner planes (even if this still remains outwardly
unrealised), and have thus given a death blow to the great heresy of
separateness. This will later make itself invincibly apparent. They brought
pure evil to the surface in such a manner that the issues between good and evil
became apparent in a clearer light and the causes of human misery received
fresh and keener recognition; the knowledge and the responsibility of mankind
everywhere cannot now be denied. They also made possible the use of energy
locked up in substance itself; this, if rightly used, can and will completely
alter and change man's attitude to life, his sense of values and his use of
time.
All this has been
brought about by what we might call with exactitude the first precipitation.
Its effects have been mass effects to a very large extent. They have affected
the [Page 164] spiritual workers and the men of goodwill, producing the
purifying fires of pain and agony through the medium of war, and making
available also the essence of the material world. I have endeavoured to express
the majesty of the recent happenings in various ways in order to impress upon
you all the stupendous nature of what has occurred.
The second
precipitation must be more consciously brought about by humanity itself, and it
is to facilitate this that the new Invocation has been given, and for this
reason it must be widely distributed.
This precipitation is
to be brought about by the gradual engendering of the divine idea in the human
consciousness. Above everything else required at this time is a recognition of
the world of meaning, a recognition of Those Who implement world affairs and
Who engineer those steps which lead mankind onward towards its destined goal,
plus a steadily increased recognition of the Plan on the part of the masses.
These three recognitions must be evidenced by humanity and affect human
thinking and action if the total destruction of mankind is to be averted. They
must form the theme of all the propaganda work to be done during the next few
decades—until the year 2025—a brief space of time indeed to produce fundamental
changes in human thought, awareness, and direction, but—at the same time— a
quite possible achievement, provided the New Group of World Servers and the men
and women of goodwill perform a conscientious task.
(Alice Bailey, Discipleship in the New Age, II)
