Esoteric Psychology II - Chapter I - The Egoic Ray - The Seven Laws of Soul or Group Life | ||||
These new groups are
appearing everywhere all over the world. The groups upon the outer plane, with their
diversity of names and stated aims, are not connected with this inner group which is
sponsoring or "projecting" the new groups, except in so far as they have a
definite, even if nebulous, connection. This becomes always possible where there are three
members of the New Group of World Servers found in any one exoteric group; it then becomes
"linked by a [197] triple thread of golden light" to the New Group of World
Servers, and can in some measure be used. This great and spiritual grouping of servers is,
on the physical plane, only very loosely linked. On the astral plane the linking is
stronger and is based upon love of humanity; on the mental plane the major linking takes
place, from the angle of the three worlds as a whole. It will be apparent, therefore, that
certain developments must have taken place in the individual before he can consciously
become a functioning member of the New Group of World Servers, which is the principal
group at this time definitely working under the Law of Group Progress.
All this involves personality integration and alignment and that magnetic, attractive appeal which is distinctive of all disciples in some form or another. In this way, from the [198] standpoint of esotericism, certain great triangles of energy will be found in the individual and consequently increasingly in humanity. Then too the "forces of creative life" will circulate from the "point within the head" (the head center) along the "line to the heart" and then, with the throat center, form a "triangle of fiery light". Such is the Way of Group Progress, and when this is being consummated, then the Law of Group Progress begins definitely to function and to control. It might be of interest, if we here listed the recognized effects of the five laws with which we have been dealing: |
