| The Destiny of the Nations - The Influence of the Rays Today |
| Let me illustrate these facts for you by means of the two rays
which are our immediate consideration. Both of them - as is ever the law - express
themselves through a higher and lower form or forms. One of the higher expressions of the
outgoing sixth ray is to be found in Christianity, the spirit and principles of which
were embodied for us in the life of the Master Jesus, Who was, in His turn, inspired and
over-shadowed and used by His great Ideal, the Christ. In the word "idealism"
you have the keynote of this ray - idealism taking form, providing a living example and
indicating to the race of men their own divine [38] potentialities. In the appearance of
the Christ, the divine ideal for the race, as a whole, was presented for the first time.
Other and earlier Sons of God presented diverse divine qualities and attributes, but in
three of them a certain perfection of presentation was achieved which (as far as this
present world period is concerned) can never be surpassed. These three are: Hercules, the perfect disciple but not yet the perfected Son of God; the Buddha, the perfect initiate, having reached illumination but not yet having developed to perfection all the attributes of divinity; the Christ, the absolutely perfect expression of divinity for this cycle and, therefore, the Teacher alike of angels and of men. That ahead of the race may lie a still higher perfection than that attained by any of these Exponents of divinity is inexpressibly true, for we know not yet what divinity really means; in these three, however, we have three instances of a perfection which lies far ahead for the majority of the sons of men. In all of Them, the sixth and the second rays were controlling factors, with the first ray reaching full expression. In Them, idealism, love-wisdom and indomitable will stood forth in all their divine power. It might be of interest to you to know just what rays controlled these Sons of God:
These three all embodied the essences of the spiritual life and all of Them were enabled to set Their seal upon history and upon the hearts of men, largely through the potency of Their sixth ray expression. All of Them embodied also the new spiritual impulse which Their day and age required and all of Them for centuries - by the strength of Their living love and power - brought the vision and the aspiration of humanity back to those spiritual essentials whereby men must live. All of Them were part of the directing group of Lives Who are working out the plans of God, founded upon the love of God. The Buddha and the Christ are still closely connected with, and working in cooperation with, the Hierarchy. Hercules has gone over into the Shamballa center, but still works in a basic with the Buddha Who is one of the Forces linking Shamballa and the Hierarchy. |
