In Connection with the Council Chamber of Sanat Kumara,
the Lord of the World
From the book Externalisation of the Hierarchy,Chapter: Stages in the Externalisation of the Hierarchy - Continue
As this
subject concerns one of the seven goals towards which the Masters aim after
They have attained the fifth initiation, it will be obvious to you that there
is little that I can say about it. One of the seven Paths for which the Way of
the Higher Evolution prepares the senior initiates is the Path of Earth
Service. This Path, as you know, keeps the Masters attached to service in the
three worlds for a period much longer than the average. It involves tremendous
sacrifice. [Page 532] Just as the disciple has
to live a dual life, with one part of his reflective nature and awareness
centred in the life of the Hierarchy and the other part of his mental
responsiveness equally centred on life in the three worlds, and this
simultaneously, so the Master, when He chooses this Path, forms a constituent
part of the Council Chamber of the Lord of the World and at the same time works
consciously in the three worlds, via the Hierarchy (of which He remains also a
part), and with the human and subhuman kingdoms in nature. As evolution
proceeds, He will work increasingly via humanity because humanity will be
shouldering its responsibilities as the Macrocosm of the lesser microcosm. … …
Only
certain further generalisations are here possible, some of which are already
known to you because they are so broad that their inclusions and implications
are obvious. This, for instance, concerns the "centre where the Will of
God is known". Here at Shamballa work Those Who have unified Their
personality will and Their spiritual will with the universal will, and such a
unification inevitably brings knowledge. It is, however, not knowledge as you
understand it. It is a blend of wisdom based on knowledge, understanding based
on intuitive perception, and identification based on alignment, esoterically
comprehended. For this peculiar condition or awareness we have no word in any
language, and only the utilisation (the trained utilisation) of the abstract
mind can possibly convey to you even an embryonic factual conception. But that
type of imaginative conception will become more common during the next two
centuries, and my words here will therefore serve an ultimate purpose. Those
Who form the Council Chamber of the Great Lord are under no misapprehension as
to His will because They [Page 533] see it
whole. Paul, the initiate, hints at this when writing one of the Epistles; he
is in touch then with certain Members of the Hierarchy and is concerned with
the theme of Love, which is the fundamental hierarchical theme and motive. He
says to Them: "Now we see through a glass darkly, but then face to face;
now we know in part, but then shall we know even as we are known." He
there points towards the future progress of the Hierarchy—a progress which
remains as yet only a vague promise, lacking form and shape. But he wrote for
initiates to whom love was a growing, vital concern, and to whom love and its
practice meant light and the basic motif of all living, divine activity. It is
not possible to reveal the will of God and the motivating Purpose of His
manifesting Self, except to Those Who have demonstrated perfected love and Who
register no sense of disunion or the faintest reaction to separateness.
At
Shamballa, the Great Lives Who function there not only see manifestation whole
and apart from all the limitations of time, but They feel all the major
evolutionary impulses which are bringing the developing world into line with
the divine Will. They embody those impulses not in terms of progressive
movement, but in terms of one great divine and spiritual reaction. This idea
can perhaps be best understood by you in terms of the Eternal AUM which is the
symbol of the Eternal NOW. You have been told, and it has been demonstrated,
that the AUM is composed of one major Sound, three minor sounds, and seven
subsidiary vibratory tones. So it is with the Will of God which is embodied and
held in synthesis by the Members of the Council Chamber. … …
Shamballa,
as it constitutes the synthesis of understanding where our Earth is concerned,
is also the centre where the highest Will of the Solar Logos is imposed upon
the Will of our planetary Logos, Who is, as you know, only a centre in His
greater body of manifestation. With this item of information you can have no
possible concern; the Masters Themselves are only learning the Will of the
planetary Logos; the objective of effort in Shamballa is, however, the
apprehension of solar Purpose, the Plan of which is working out on the highest
levels of our planetary system, just as the Will, Purpose and Plan of Shamballa
work out on the three lowest levels of our planetary system. Again, this item
of information serves only to indicate hierarchical objectives, and those
objectives extend away from time and space into the Mind of God Himself.
There are
certain synonyms which here may serve to develop your synthetic thinking and so
bring in a definite measure of enlightenment.

This problem of the apparently impenetrable darkness of intention as grasped by Shamballa, of meaning, of inscrutability, of a spiritual imperviousness which holds, in spite of all fluctuations in the three worlds of human evolution and the remaining two of superhuman unfoldment, provides a situation to which the Hierarchy has to make adjustment through alignment. You are, in your small way, making your adjustment to the Hierarchy through a steady construction of the antahkarana, and in so doing are aiding in the construction of the antahkarana which unites Humanity and the Hierarchy—the first few strands of which were established through the sacrifices of certain of the Sons of God when the Hierarchy was founded on Earth. Today, the Hierarchy is working at the establishing of the linking strands between Itself and Shamballa, and good progress has already been made. It might be said here that for the past seven hundred years the chain of Hierarchy has been complete; by this I mean that the planetary rainbow bridge uniting the three major centres has existed. The task ahead of all these three major centres, working in alignment through adjustment, is to strengthen and beautify (if I may so express it), to electrify this bridge, thus producing full planetary intercommunication between the three centres and the four minor centres, so that "the weight of the Will of God, the momentum of the Purpose of Sanat Kumara and the Plan of His Representatives may progress unimpeded from point to point, from sphere to sphere and from glory to glory."
It is this
complete establishment of relationship between Shamballa, the Hierarchy and
Humanity which brought about the planetary crisis through which the world has
just passed and, from some standpoints, is still passing. [Page 536] Shamballa, as I have told you, can now
reach Humanity, the third major centre, directly, and therefore has two points
of planetary contact: the first, via the Hierarchy, as has been for long the
case, and secondly, in a straight line, carrying energy direct to Humanity,
without any transmission and consequent modifying of impact, as has also been the
case hitherto. When this direct line of spiritual, dynamic, electrical energy
made its first impact on earth (after the Great Council held in 1825), it first
of all awakened men's thinking in a new and comprehensive way, producing the
great ideologies; it aroused their massed desire, and registered obstruction on
the physical plane. …
Because of
this direct impact between Shamballa and Humanity, by-passing the Hierarchy,
the Hierarchy was left free for the work of rehabilitation and salvaging, for
reconstruction and for the application of the regenerative forces of [Page 537] resurrection. The Hierarchy needed and welcomed this
interlude and recognised it as an essential aspect of the Plan.
The
"cycle of Shamballa impact" is now over; the appeal of humanity to
the Christ and His Hierarchy has again refocussed the energy of Shamballa via
the Hierarchy, and the direct work of the Hierarchy with Humanity can again
take on fresh meaning, can be re-established on new and somewhat different
lines, and thus definitely bring in that "new heaven and new earth"
for which men have so long waited. This will take time, but the new energies
and their emerging qualities are adequate to the task, and will alleviate much
and bring about great changes in due course of time. You will note, therefore,
that the Hierarchy has been faced with three adjustments as the result of being
deliberately "put out of alignment," though only temporarily, with
both Shamballa and Humanity. This was symbolised for us at the Crucifixion when
the Saviour hung pendant between heaven and earth. These adjustments are:
1. Adjustment to those extra-planetary energies which were released into the highest centre.
This was made possible by two factors:
a. The direct impact between Shamballa and Humanity or between will and intelligence. This is an important point to recognise.
b. The temporary quiescence of the love principle, as the Hierarchy waited for the results and effects of this direct impact upon the earth.
This was effectively carried out with much destruction in the world of forms.
2.
Adjustment to certain basic changes within the Hierarchy Itself in preparation
for the process of externalisation which was begun this century.
3.
Adjustment to a disciplined and reoriented humanity, [Page
538] working today in the dark, it is needless to say, groping along
unknown ways, appealing to the Hierarchy for more light and understanding, but
awakened and alert for changes.
These adjustments are proceeding with rapidity; the technique being employed is realignment, through a definite action of the Will, as far as Shamballa is concerned, and by an outpouring of Love, as far as humanity is concerned. This Act of the Will is carried out by the three Heads of Departments in the Hierarchy, under the guidance of the Christ and by the Chohans of the seven major Ashrams. They constitute a group of ten to Whom this task has been committed, for the reason that They are the only Members of the Hierarchy Who possess the needed qualifications and in Whom the Will aspect is adequately developed. The task of pouring out the Love principle in a new and dynamic manner is being carried out by all the Masters and by all initiates who have taken the third initiation. This stream of love will focus itself each coming Full Moon in a special act or demonstration of love. …
