03.01.2022 Today is a special day. It is Wesak. For those of you who dont know what it means it said to be the time (every year) when the Masters gather in Shamballa, a... portal in the Himalayas. My dear friend Marilyn sent me this from her mentor. Worth reading. (Written about in Autobiolgraphy of a Yogi and The Master of the Far East) but known about for aeons. Buddha links all the levels from Shamballa to the Earth & calls all aspirants & disciples to preserve an inner quiet at this time. This quiet is so we can participate in the Spiritual Forces pouring into the Earth during Wesak. It is a transmission of force, ideas, cooperation between Lord Buddha & the Christ. The Two Brothers subject themselves to a training so they can help our planet. Three Masters (Maitreya, Koot Humi, Master St. Germaine) are also cooperating with these Two Lords. There are 23 spiritual forces acting as a channel at the Wesak Festival, at the hour of the full moon. The Hierarchy calls all aspirants, disciples to be mentally focused to receive the new forces of synthesis poured forth for the well being of humanity. They open a channel so extra-planetary energies can pour forth. If you can see Venus tonight ... she has been in the north western sky ... very bright ... to follow is a most beautiful meditation and an opportunity to join in with some beings of higher realms including Christ and Buddha ... this info has just arrived from Risa ... Following is the Wesak Story/Legend. Reading it allows us to use our creative imagination & see ourselves also in the valley during the actual appearance of the Buddha tonight. We will all be awake during the actual time of buddhas appearance. Let us see ourselves as a group around a campfire, & later behind the Christ & the Masters as part of the NGWS. About 20 minutes prior to the actual appearance, we will read the story, & draw the shapes. Minutes prior to the actual time of the full moon we will say..."We are ready, Buddha. Come!" As the Buddha makes His appearance we remain in quiet & in silence for 8 minutes. Reaching our thoughts up to the Buddha, hovering above the valley in the etheric golden light. Eight minutes - That is how long Buddha will remain within the field of the Earth, bring a blessing to humanity from the Father. Standing together we receive, absorb that blessing, hold it in our hearts & radiate that blessing to humanity (using our creative imaginations). Draw this Triangle A great triangle of force (Lord of the World, Buddha & Christ) is called in during this festival, & it is released into the minds of humanity. We continue to hold this blessing until the next Full moon, which will be the Full Moon of Humanity, during the Gemini Festival. The work we do tonight is potent, filled with the force of the Will of God, for the purpose of enlightening humanity. As the Buddha appears, so do the Forces of Enlightenment streaming into the valley & into the earth. The Forces of Light on the physical plane will drive the F/Evil back. All of these things will occur tonight. Through us. So, we stand together in the Valley tonight, no matter where we are physically. With our intention & dedication, we are also together in the Valley with the Christ, the Masters, greeting the Buddha THE WESAK LEGEND There is a valley lying at a rather high altitude in the foothills of the Himalayan-Tibet ranges. It is surrounded by high mountains on all sides except for the northeast, where there is a narrow opening in the mountain ranges. Up towards the northern end is a large and smooth flat rock. There are no trees or shrubs in the valley, covered as it is with coarse grass, but the sides of the mountains are dense with trees. At the time of the full moon of May, pilgrims from surrounding districts begin to gather. Holy men and priestly lamas find their way into the valley filling the southern and the middle areas, leaving the northeastern area free, for there at the NE end, so the legend runs, gathers a group of great Beings, the Custodians on Earth of Gods Plan for our planet and for humanity. Their names differ. Christians speak of the Christ and His Disciples, that great Cloud of Witnesses, Who serve humanity. Esotericists know them as Masters of the Wisdom, the Planetary Hierarchy, taught and led by the Christ, the Master of Masters, World Teacher, Teacher of both angels and humanity. They are also called Rishis, holy men of the Hindu Scriptures, the Society of Illumined Minds, referred to in the Tibetan teachings. They are the Great Intuitives, the Great Companions of our world, the aggregate of perfected humanity who having followed in Christs footsteps, have entered within the Veil, leaving us an example of what we also can do. They, with their wisdom, love and knowledge, stand as a protective wall around our race, seeking to lead us onward, step-by-step (as They Themselves were led in Their time) from: Darkness to light from the unreal to the real from death to immortality & from chaos to beauty. This prayer we know is from the ancient Upanishads, humanitys most ancient text of prayer and instructions. This group of Knowers of Divinity, the main participants of the Wesak festival, arrange themselves in the northeastern end of the valley in concentric circles (according to the status and grade of their initiatory development), preparing themselves for a great act of service. In front of the rock, looking toward the northeast, stand the "Three Great Lords - the Manu, the Christ, & the Maha-chohan. These three face the rock, upon which rests a great crystal bowl, filled with water. The Christ, Who stands in the center is the Lord of Love and Wisdom and the Teacher of angels and of humanity. The office of the Lord of Wisdom was originally held by the Buddha to prepare humanitys minds for the coming of the Christ. The Christ now assumes the office of the Lord of both Love & Wisdom. Part of the work of the Bodhisattva (Christ) is with the religions of the world and with the spiritual essence in humanity. The Manu, who stands to the right of the Christ, is the Lord of Form. He presides over the evolution of the various racial types, and the birth, destruction and movement of the continents. The Maha-chohan, the Lord of Civilization, to the left of the Manu, works with the intellectual culture of the races and with the energy of Intelligence. Behind the Masters stand the adepts, initiates, disciples, senior workers, world disciples and aspirants in their various grades and groups (either in the body or out of the body) who are the New Group of World Servers. Those present in their physical bodies have found their way there by ordinary means. Others are present in their spiritual bodies or in the dream state. As the hour of the full moon approaches, stillness settles upon the crowd and all look towards the northeast. Along with the sound of specific mantrams, the Masters and Their disciples of all ranks move together through various symbolic positions as if in a slow ritual dance. These symbolic positions represent the spiritual journey of humanity. 1. The circle represents one heart and the one mind, unity. 2. The circle with a point at the center represents the moment of self-conscious awareness. Thinking ourselves separate and different from all else, experiencing the feeling of isolation, we realize we are not alone. The Soul light, the Christ light, awakens. 3. The even-armed cross within the circle is the moment we recognize we are both spirit and matter, balancing this duality, above & below, side by side, in our lives 4. The triangle within the circle is the moment we dedicate ourselves to the good of all. 5. The triangle amidst three circle represents the unfolding petals of Will, Love/wisdom, & knowledge in our lives through experiences in form & matter. 6. The six-pointed star is the personality under the direction of our Soul, and thus we manifest our divine nature. 6. The five-pointed star represents the moment when our minds, emotions and physical bodies are now perfected expressions of Divine Will, Love and Intelligence. We are perfected humanity. The expectancy in the waiting, onlooking crowd becomes very real as the tension increases. Within the body of the waiting people there can be felt a stimulation or potent vibration which has the effect of awakening the souls of those present, fusing and blending the group into one united whole, creating a spiritual demand, a readiness and an expectancy. The worlds aspiration is focused in this waiting group. The three words - demand, readiness and expectancy describes the atmosphere around those present in this secret valley. And then all participants enter into a deep meditation. At the high point of group telepathic receptivity the Christ, raising the Rod of Power, the Manu & Maha-chohan raising the water bowl, calls upon the Buddha to confer his annual blessing from Sanat Kumara, the Lord of the World who resides in Shamballa, the Place Where the Will of God is Known. The Christ calls the Buddha to transmit the direction of the spiritual work for the following year. He says: All is ready, Lord Buddha. Come! All of the participants now raise their eyes toward the sky. A few moments before the exact time of the full moon, in the far distance, a tiny speck of light can be seen in the sky. The light comes nearer and nearer, growing in clarity, until the form of the Buddha can be seen. He is seated in the cross-legged Buddha position, his hand held in a mudra of blessing. He is clad in His saffron-colored robe and bathed in concentric circles of color and light. The Buddha has his hand extended in blessing. When He arrives at a point exactly above the great altar rock, hovering in the air over the heads of the three Great Lords, a great mantram, used only once a year at the Festival, is intoned by the Christ. Everyone in the valley bows in reverence. And so, as the legend runs, the Buddha has returned once to bless the world, transmitting from the Father and through the Christ, a renewed spiritual life for the world. The blessing is poured forth, and the Christ - as the Representative of Humanity - receives it in trust for distribution at the next full moon festival, that of the Gemini Festival of Humanity. All those present in the valley now join in a powerful invocation, The Great Invocation, which sets up a great vibration and thought current of such potency that it reaches up from the group of aspirants, disciples and initiates to God Himself. The reciting of the Great Invocation marks the supreme moment of spiritual effort of the entire year. It creates a spiritual vitalization for humanity the spiritual effects lasting throughout the following 12 months (until next years Wesak festival). The effect of this Great Invocation is universal. It links humanity with that great Cosmic center of spiritual energy from which all created beings have come forth. After eight minutes of His Presence, the Buddha slowly recedes into the heavens, until again only a faint speck of light can be seen in the sky. Eventually the speck disappears. The ceremonial blessing, from his first appearance until the Buddha fades out of view, was eight minutes. The Buddhas annual sacrifice for Humanity (for He returns to Earth only at great cost) is complete for the year. He returns once again to that high place where He works and waits. Year after year the Buddha returns to Earth to confer a blessing from the Lord of the World. Year after year He and His great Brother, the Christ, work in closest cooperation for the spiritual benefit of humanity. In these two great Sons of God, acting together as custodians of the highest spiritual force to which humanity can respond, are focused two aspects of divine life. Through the Buddha, the Wisdom of God is poured through. Through the Christ, the Love of God is manifested to humanity; and it is this Wisdom and Love, which pour forth upon humanity at each full moon Taurus Buddha Wesak Festival. After a time, after the Buddha has disappeared fully, the crowd slowly rises to its feet and the Christ begins to distribute the blessed Wesak water to his disciples. The NGWS offer the waters to the crowd. After the water in the bowl, filled with the blessings of the Buddha, is offered in tiny portions to the Christ, Masters, initiates and disciples, slowly they go their way to their places of service. The crowd, having brought their water cups and vessels to the Festival, drinks from them, sharing with others. This is the water ceremony of communion. It is a symbol and indicator of the New Age, the Aquarian Age, the age of the Water Carrier, of humanity bearing a water pitcher," the Aquarian waters are the waters of life poured forth for thirsty humanity. The waters of Wesak are the promise and the symbol of the new era and new age (Aquarius) of humanity, a new era that is to be created with its New Laws & Principles. The water, magnetized by the presence of the Buddha and the Christ, carries specific virtues and properties that are life-giving and healing for all the kingdoms. Buddha brings the Will to Good to humanity, the Fathers Divine blessing. The Wesak ceremony is the story of Gods love for His people through His Will to Good which, when reaching the Earth, becomes Goodwill within humanity. The waters purify humanity - offering to humanity the 2nd Initiation, that of Baptism which cleanses the emotional body. The Wesak waters are given because humanity is thirsty. The waters offer humanity a sense of community, a communion - an opportunity to share with each other in the waters of life. The waters of life poured forth for thirsty humanity. Having been blessed, the yearly ceremony over, the crowd silently disperses, returning to homes and villages, renewed, revitalized, able to love and serve more fully. The Masters and their disciples also return to their respective homes, strengthened and renewed and able to undertake another year of world service. The unified group called the New Group of World Servers does the same. And so runs the ancient legend. A Call for a Greater World Service The Wesak, also known as Buddha Purnima, comes from the Sanskrit term Vaisakha, which refers to the month when Wesak is celebrated, and is one of the most auspicious holidays in many cultures, especially among the Buddhists. Buddha Purnima basically means the full moon of Buddha. Believed to be the most powerful full moon of the year, Wesak meditation is conducted on the exact time of the full moon of Taurus by many spiritual practitioners as a great way of service to mankind and the entire earth. Based on a legend, every year at the exact time of Wesak, Lord Buddha will come down and pour forth the spiritual blessings and energies from the Father, the Lord of the World, originally from Venus. Christ as the representative of the humanity will receive the blessings and distributes them to everyone in the valley & in the world. In this way once a year during the Wesak festival a renewed spiritual living energy is transmitted to the humanity and to every person and every being on earth. Wesak marks a great point in the life and development of people on earth. It is a moment of intensive spiritual effort and invaluable heartfelt service which will last throughout the year. The work we do during this festival helps manifest the divine plan of God on earth. Many spiritual practitioners, disciples, Arhats and Masters will join together tonight...in the valley. Some in dreams, some in reality, some in their imaginations. No matter, all will be there in the actual valley with the Christ, the Hierarchy, & the Buddha. In the days that follow Wesak, Days of Safeguarding, we protect the Wesak waters that were blessed in my crystal bowls. And share that water with the plant & animal kingdom. Venus is bright in the sky tonight over the Wesak Valley.
