. The Art of Dying By;- Mike j Hughes

I have come to realize the fact that people are dying everyday with no one at their side helping them cross over into the astral world when the physical body is left behind to return to its elemental source.
With those who are earthbound, in the ,-[ kama-Loka ] ,- which , can sometimes, be a state of utter confusion wherein the dis-embodied Ego may not realize it has passed on. Everyone must, at some time, come to an understanding that we are essentially souls with a very long history that covers thousands of incarnations going back through tremendous eons and vistas of time, through many races, cultures, ancient civilizations, and evolving little more with each and every cycle,- with each and every incarnation.


For many people, the fear of death is so terrifying they refuse to even think of it ,as if denying its very existence to the very last minute.
This fear is not extreme as most people think it is. Those living in dark ignorance see their death as the annihilation of everything so dear to their hearts, -of everything they ever loved ,- places , people ,things, thoughts , dreams, inspirations , - and most of all, the annihilation of Identity itself.
Those who are very carnal and worldly during their incarnations on earth will be most devastated with the thought of dying- ,as they have been so conditioned and limited by ignorance since the beginning of their lives while leaving out the most precious important realities of who they are as Souls.
Many ancient and seasoned racial groups have the wisdom concerning ;-, ``The Art of Dying``During which one prepares to discard an old and useless shell,- only to acquire new ones after making their transition to the other side.
The lessons to learn , as we come into incarnation age after age , is to not identify ourselves with our earthly vehicles.
As we identify with the Divine Self , detach ourselves from our physical, astral-emotional, and lower mental bodies, we thus learn to live as souls, finding real joy and bliss as we come to Divine Self-Realization.
There is no such thing as death,- the soul [ or ``Higher Self``] is a Divine aspect of the the one Universal Principle which thrills throughout the cosmos in which we ,live,move ,and have our being.
As we come to understand ourselves for who we REALLY are ,-... this fear of death will be seen as it really is,,,a silly superstition, and a vague misunderstanding of the greater reality of which we all play a part,- having no beginning and no ending , as we understand it. Thus we come to understand the eternal NOW.
Once we have freed ourselves by detaching and releasing our sense of awareness above elemental substance of dense physical , astral-emotional , and lower mental planes , then we free ourselves from the fear of death , and all silly, superstitious , and childish phantasms related to it.
When we set ourselves free from material limitations , the illusions that have for so long kept us in the dark, then shall we find greater freedom to work and play beyond the confines of our material existence ,and to soar ever higher into bliss of Divine Self-Realization.

The Struggle Towards Our Innate Divinity. ;- Mike j Hughes

Their is  an ever growing group of human beings living , and or now, coming into incarnation - who`s hearts are aflame with humanitarian aspirations to improve the awful and depraved conditions of which life on this planet  is now passing through,- with all the suffering, war, corruptness, and the ongoing agony of mind everywhere to be seen . A growing body of men and woman from all walks of life, such  as those who are on Esoteric Online  are   now at last  beginning to communicate, and are banding together to prepare for the biggest event in human history, - preparing the way for the ``Coming One``,- The World Teacher- Maitreya,  and-  The Elder Brother of Humanity. Their are millions of humanitarian aspirants at this time who knowingly, or UN-knowingly are working and laboring selflessly for this coming Global Event.
　
This is common amongst those who have reach a rather advanced stage in their spiritual evolution. The ever-burning aspiration will climb higher with each incarnation until the hour strikes!! Do not despair my Friends , for we all must play the game of Life if we are to regain our lost , and that so ancient Divinity that brings with it memories of Radiance and Cosmic Bliss.
This is the goal for the spiritual evolution of all humanity, - so remember my dear Friends, that we are all in this together . We all Dream Big Dreams. ,...each and everyone of us in the course of our long evolutionary journey will always aspire for better times . And they are a coming.!! Until we have learned all that can be experienced here on Earth we will continue to reach..and fall.....reach and fall....reach and fall...........Until the hour strikes.!
A Great man is not born, a Buddha is not born, a Christ is not born, a Leonardo da Vinci is not born, and neither is a Plato, Jon Anderson, George Washington,..and so on. No they are not just born as flukes or freaks of nature. I say again , they are not Born,.....but are -made- and have evolved through eons of suffering through countless incarnations.
If we too are to regain this lost Greatness and Awesome Divinity then we must earn it through many lives of self,SACRIFICE, ,service, and suffering. Remember you can not give compassion or embrace Humanity with your Divine Love to others until you yourself have endured every form of suffering their is under the sun. This can take many thousands of incarnations , -but through our efforts as individuals we can speed up this process by service, trust, study, giving, sharing the resources of the world, and so on .
Many Esoteric Schools posit the idea that man will reach the acme of spiritual development only during the 7th sub-race of the 7th Root Race. This is just a thoughtless overlook so to speak...obviously..? However their are those even now who have achieved full adept ship , and have elected to remain with Humanity and to work under Great exalted Beings such as the Silent Watcher who name can now be given and known as Sanat Kumara- He has many names,- ``Youth of Endless Summers``, ``Ancient of Days``, ``The Great Sacrifice``, ``The Dark Hidden Father``, The Morning Star``, and the ``Silent Watcher.``
As many of you may know , ..this planet is a great experiment and has been converted to adapt to conditions whereby many lifeforms came into existence. But unfortunately many became failures even after millions of years of evolution. This planet was once the point of a great ``cosmic failure``, and many dumb,-or rather ``mindless races``roamed the Earth long before We, as the ``Sparks of Angelic Divinity`` Fell from our High abode and took incarnation into what was then animal man. We are fallen and incarnated Angels who did not leave their High Abode out of rebellion,- but rather as a Great Sacrifice to make of the primitive men at that time a thinking, rational, cultured , and refined Human beings.

Towards Transformation. By;- Mike j Hughes.

-Let Love Be The Means For Transformation-

                                                             

For anyone with an interest in the Ageless Wisdom Teachings , along with practical spirituality -will find much insight by reading Hermann Hesse`s classic book ``Siddhartha``. I love this story very much. I must have read it about a dozen times throughout  my early teens and later   in high school .
I recently found it on the Internet as an audio-book and loved it so much I put it on my mp3 player to take with me wherever I go.
Last summer I went into a wilderness area known as  `Light House Park``on the North Shore here in the city of Vancouver.  I have returned to this spot frequently to meditate and read without  the overwhelming useless  chatter and constant irritating sounds of mans primitive gadgetry which works ill to  the health of our bodies.

Books such as the one described above can help shape and refine young minds for a sense of real value and purpose, as apposed to today's shallow , empty , and godless material isms responsible for bringing the ugly gloominess of depression,   causing much of the senseless violence such as we see exhibited by our youth.
I am 44 years old and have only recently discovered the endless  ways self education through the use of a  computer.
Spirituality and altruism is where I channel my energy into living a creative life and sharing my information about my life as a young man.
The world is undergoing a profound transformation, and will continue to do so for many decades to come . All of the old ways of selfishness and power hunger are now beginning to fade into thin air as we are now waking up to the realities of a brighter future for ourselves ,and the generations to come.

As to the future of education the Master D.K - through Alice .A.  Bailey has made a profound statement ;-..


"Education must meet the needs of the human spirit. It must assist persons to develop a satisfactory personal philosophy and sense of values; to cultivate tastes for literature, music and the arts; to grow in ability to analyze problems and arrive at thoughtful conclusions."

All men and woman of Goodwill are  becoming an  organized group of thinkers from all over the world , and they are coming from all walks and all fields of Human endeavour.
More and more are awakening to the realization of the inhuman and intolerable conditions of unfair complacency as to how we live in a world where millions starve to death in a world of plenty.
It is a lie to give people dis-information as to the overwhelming ``food crisis``we have been hearing about through the media , radio, and Internet..

Those who work within the `New Group of World Servers `` are trained observers and cannot be fooled by these cheap and fabricated stories claiming humanity`s  ``end of days``is just around the corner.
.Many are  aware of the stupid   various  stupid methods imposed upon the  Masses  in a feeble attempt to divert attention away from what`s  really going on as to the agenda of various ``small selfish creatures`` who really think they are at the top of the Pyramid when it comes to all avenues of human progress in the fields of economics, politics , business, education, Banks, industry, and so on.

A Call to Service.;- By- Mike j Hughes

                                                            


My goal for writing in this journal is to do what I can as a member of the``New Group of World Servers`` to remind all my brothers and Sisters all over the world to make known the information I have come across over the last 30 years of research and study into the Ageless Wisdom Teachings
All men and woman of Goodwill are now becoming a very organized group of thinkers from all over the world , and they are coming from all walks and all fields of Human endeavour.
All those within this developing body of thinkers are called by many names. However the first Title they have been given is that One that stands out as the exact title , which is;- ``The New Group of New World Servers``,- a term given by the Master D.K [ The Tibetan¸] .

This Group is composed of all who have a desire to serve their fellow Man in some way that will be practical and altruistic.
As we know , People are not going to live under the evils of Dictatorships that rob their freedom, their talents, free speech, and of course their right to vote as to who they think would be a ``Leader of the People``


The ``Up Risings`` now taking place all through-out the world at this time is the result of Social Networking, Internet, better communications, and so much more.
Anyone with an open mind and have their hearts on fire to take part and join the ranks of all those who are dedicated in working hard to change the world along more sane avenues of approach . In the field of economic , the sharing of the worlds resources in a world of plenty should now be the over-riding priority.

Bottom of Form 1

Bottom of Form 1

A Time of Expectancy. - Lucis Trust -

Humanity is experiencing a climaxing time of change with all the accompanying pain, chaos and disruption. Old forms are dying out and new ones are coming to life. Always in such times, a Teacher comes forth to inaugurate the new age, a World Saviour, an Illuminator, an Avatar, a transmitting Intermediary, a Christ. Today will be no exception to this ancient rule and universal law.
For centuries, the reappearance of an Avatar has been anticipated by the faithful worldwide - by Christians, and by those who look for the Maitreya, the Bodhisattva, the Messiah and the Imam Mahdi. This Teacher will be one who identifies with human struggle, understands these times completely and knows the depth and intricacies of the human heart. He or she will come for all humanity.
The great teachers of the past have led humanity further into the light, bringing revelation to their time. The coming World Teacher will bring revelation which speaks to this time, using the world communications systems at His disposal, that “every eye shall see and every ear shall hear”.
We are witnessing a flowering of the human spirit. Humanity itself is preparing the way for the Coming One by instituting changes within all aspects of human life. Spiritual recognition and application is the great need today in preparation for this reappearance.
The World Teacher will come to restore man’s faith in God’s love, in the livingness of our shared divinity and in the close and unbreakable relationship of the peoples of this world.
A great and ancient prayer has been given to humanity to help prepare the way. It is a world prayer of extraordinary potency. Energy follows and conforms itself to thought. Through daily use and distribution of the Great Invocation, we aid this preparatory work and unite as One Humanity. All are asked to contribute their energy and light in this service to the world.
THE GREAT INVOCATION*
From the point of Light within the mind of God
Let light stream forth into human minds
Let Light descend on Earth.
From the point of Love within the Heart of God
Let love stream forth into human hearts
May the Coming One return to Earth.
From the centre where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide all little human wills
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.
From the centre which we call the human race
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.
Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.
*THIS IS A SLIGHTLY ADAPTED WORDING OF THE GREAT INVOCATION. MEN AND WOMEN OF GOODWILL THROUGHOUT THE WORLD ARE USING THIS INVOCATION IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE. WILL YOU JOIN THEM IN USING THE INVOCATION EVERY DAY - WITH THOUGHT AND DEDICATION?

The Right and Left Hand Paths. By;- Mike j Hughes

There is much confusion regarding the nature of what Black Magic
really is. I will show you the difference between white magic and what is
known as black magic;- [ Satanism ] ,White magic is ruled over by the sun [soul,or higher
self], black magic is ruled over by the moon [personality,or lower self],White
magic uses the pentacle with the single point upward,;-[denoting spirit
awards],black magic uses the same symbol inverted, ;-[with two points
upward,matter, human sorcery]. The white magician works with nature and the
forces of nature,-
The black magician attempt to thwart and twist the forces of
nature according to selfish motives, thus creating abominations.The white
magician works along the right hand path,-The black magician works on the left
hand path.The final destiny of the white magician is at-one-ment with the pure
spirit,[or monadic essence],-The destiny of the black magician is avicii,or the
``Planet of Death``and hence annihilation, [however there are exceptions due to
the karma of the planetary Logo`s
It is very important that one watches carefully ones self, and studies the
occult in depth for many years and to do a through examination of ones nature
and motives long before even applying simple practical occultism, or ,as surly
as fate- one will FALL INTO BLACK MAGIC
It takes a very advanced and old soul to learn the manipulation and mastery
over ones three worlds of endeavour [ physical,astral-emotional,and mental;- Manasic],and
the greater bulk of those who profess to know and practice these arts are
unknowingly practicing Black Magic.
The generic masses to day are only in the beginnings of their mental evolution, and as yet, still polarized in their emotional- astral bodies. Hence it``s being profoundly dangerous to the majority.
I find it all so ridiculous why so many young people are being swayed into this unknown -[ to them] world. From what I have observed, 70% of people who are delving into these ``dark arts`` have not near the necessary mental development required to master these ancient and deeply esoteric mysteries, - therefore, relatively harmless and ineffective to the wanna-be``s.
There are two aspects to all occult learning,- as there are two Schools of Magic~- one is the Left-Hand Path wherein one is descending into matter and developing selfishness to an unbelievable morbid degree. The White Magician is one who has gone far ahead in His spiritual evolution ,and serves the Divine Plan by cooperating with the Spiritual Hierarchy of this Man- Bearing Planet.
There are highly advanced astral magicians, good and bad, who have resided on the various astral planes for countless thousands of years. They have become crystallized,- and will remain in that state for a very long time to come, until they can break themselves free from astral glamour and become mentally polarized . In time humanity will expand it`s awareness to levels of Divine Brotherhood. In the meantime we must work together and put our differences aside and work towards co-operation ,trust, sharing, and develop the virtues of a happy World Community``.

Freeing Oneself From Astral Limitations. By;- Mike j Hughes

The most powerful and effective method of service an aspirant can offer in leading humanity out of it`s self created hellish nightmare world of illusion and suffering is to empower oneself with absolute determination to set ones goal to tread the razor edge Path to Self –Realization.
Control and mastery over the astral- emotional body is very difficult and arduous, and will take many incarnations to achieve before the second initiation can be taken.

 The fact that the greater bulk of humanity today,- being polarized in the astral body, makes this goal of passing through the second initiation a very difficult long path of sufferings,- a realization of ones short comings , backsliding, agony of mind, along with much ``psychic growing pains``,and much hardship over several lives.
Once the first initiation is taken there are then about 6-7 incarnations in which one passes from being an astral polarized being, to that of achieving total mental polarization shortly after the second initiation. thus shifting awareness to a level above the astral planes and setting one free from the illusions and glamour's from a world we have created ourselves through the unwholesome use of the creative imaginations with it;s phantasms, , emotional bondages , its seductive and beautiful fantasies that many have mistaken as ``mystical experience`s ``… , but, in fact are forms of astral intoxication!!. Take for example the behaviour seen in many fundamental Christian groups who work themselves into an emotional hysteria , shouting ``praise the Lord!!!``, …. `` be healed now!`` ,screaming out their sermons , losing control while sputtering and foaming at the mouth.!!!!. Pure astral intoxication, and yet claiming such morbid behaviour as a spiritual experience.!!?
The goal set forth for man during the Atlantean 4th Root Race was the out- growth and development of the astral- emotional body ,along with the budding germ of Mind or ``Manasic principle``. The astral-emotional body - developed very well ,and so powerful-, that it is still the major polarization for the vast majority of humanity today.

 We are in the early epoch of the 5th Root Race. The long term goal for humanity now is the growth and development of the lower mental body. The astral- emotional body of man took 12 million years to develop to what it is today. We all have had thousands of incarnations during this period of the Atlantean Root Race.
The coming labour of evolution now facing humanity will be arduous,- a journey through millions of years,- and will involve not just one root race ,- but will include the rest of this round and into the middle of the next round. Thus the full evolution of the lower and higher abstract mind will come into full fruition , revealing an unbelievable beauty not as yet comprehensible to the masses at this time. The Higher mind is an aspect of the inner Divine Self and must come into full development before the end of the 5th round.
The goal set before us now is freeing ourselves from the glamour's of the astral planes and the achievement of mental polarization as more of the Sons of Men begin to tread the path of initiation and service to both God and Man. As many of you know mental polarization begins at a point between the first and second initiations,- or at about [ 1.6 ] , and is more or less completed at about [ 2.3] when spiritual polarization begins ,and the man or woman prepares for the third initiation and is thus a manifestation of Divinity upon the physical , astral-emotional, and mental planes. From the Spiritual Hierarchy point of view the third initiation is really the first true soul initiation into Divinity.
The most important thing for every aspirant to do is to detach himself from all seductiveness and fantasies of the various levels of the astral planes and to ``see`` from a distance [ so to speak ] and learn its nature ,pitfalls, and the many countless glamour's that seek to snare the unwary. In many ways the astral planes are the fields of glamour and illusion.
 
Again I say ;- the greater bulk of humanity today are polarized on the astral- emotional planes ,which at this point in evolution , holds man as a prisoner of his own creation. It is this fact that makes the 2nd initiation the most difficult of all initiations to pass through. As the initiate advances forward there comes a time ,-after many incarnations,- where no glamour or illusion can long hold one who has the dedication and determination to fight his way into a greater measure of freedom , pure reason , into the Divinity and Light of His own SOUL,- or Higher Self.

Asral Phenomena . By;- Mike j Hughes

                         




There are many who, –during a certain stage of sleep , leave their bodies every night they lay there heads down to sleep. During this time we meet all our loved ones ,-family, friends, as well as those we have known intimately in our past going back through untold eons of time after the memory's of earth life fades as a dream itself as we find ourselves in familiar places where the experience of life outside the body itself becomes overwhelming and very vivid. The trick is being able to bring back , or recollect what we've have experienced while out of our physical shells.
There are some who may have experienced while in a lucid sleep, a sort of buzzing sound ,or a sensation that a light electrical current is flowing through their bodies ,or a buzzing sound that can be felt or heard. Along with this they may find they can not move and may have an eerie feeling of a ``presence`` while awakening.
Remember my friends that the astral planes along with its temptation may cause you to develop an addiction to all various forms of astral and phycic phenomena, and deep embedded glamour's of the most subtle kind. Good Luck ,-and be careful . Remember there are some of the most evil life forms that will take notice of you during your travels on to these more ethereal astral planes. .

Upon the higher astral planes are souls who have lived good lives and who are the average bulk of humanity ,though not as much as we would normally expect. While the one ,who has thus achieved this ability through many years ,-or through many lives of learning and experience. There are many endless dimensions through out the astral worlds and many endless forms of astral wildlife which one will gravitate towards whether in or out of incarnation according to the morality of the one who is astrally polarized. One must understand the nature of the astral planes and study well it`s illusive, and seductive nature. Many have become addicted to higher types of astral phenomena which can hold you down within its fantasy and its astral dreams and will cause undue harm of one held under its power for eons to come ,thus taking several incarnation to release oneself before evolving towards the higher planes, and finally into Deva Chan.

The times are changing so rapidly that those of us who walk in the Light are as well met with those who are treading the ``Left Hand Path``. We are now entering a new age and many in the world are responding to these energies in such a way as to bring everything out all that is worse in humanity ,-and we have those who somewhat a little more advanced and who are counted as custodians of the Plan of Evolution.

Remember friends.- that the goal of the spiritualists,- Keep your consciousness as high as possible and you ,and the rest of us can reach the higher planes far above the evil that lie in waiting. .Our job is to teach humanity to expand their awareness above the level where the evil forces running rapid through out the world at this time and to raise our consciousness above the level where they can-not reach us .

The Door Where Evil Dwells will soon be sealed up through out the Age of Aquarius and man will be poised to erect a mighty civilization even Greater than that of Atlantis.

The Great Invocation. Lucis Trust.

THE GREAT INVOCATION

From the point of Light within the Mind of God
Let light stream forth into the minds of men.
Let Light descend on Earth.

From the point of Love within the Heart of God
Let love stream forth into the hearts of men.
May Christ return to Earth.

From the center where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide the little wills of men -
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.

From the center which we call the race of men
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.

Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.

"The above Invocation or Prayer does not belong to any person or group but to all humanity. The beauty and the strength of this Invocation lies in its simplicity, and in its expression of certain central truths which all men, innately and normally, accept - the truth of the existence of a basic Intelligence to Whom we vaguely give the name of God; the truth that behind all outer seeming, the motivating power of the universe is Love; the truth that a great Individuality came to earth, called by Christians, the Christ, and embodied that love so that we could understand; the truth that both love and intelligence are effects of what is called the Will of God; and finally the self-evident truth that only through humanity itself can the Divine Plan work out."
- Alice Bailey
