With a Little Help From Our Friends - Joe Cocker in the Bardos Music - With a Little Help From My Friends...(see below) From Darkness to Light, From death to Immortality. Tuesday, December 23, 2014 – last week of 2014. The Time of Darkness – in the Darkness of the Year Facing the Hidden Sun With the upward movement of the Sun, we again (each year) ascend from darkness to light; it is the ascent of consciousness from matter to Spirit (the Capricorn gate opened – the Gate where matter returns to Spirit – thus the Capricorn metaphor of “climbing the mountain”) and from ignorance to knowledge. We celebrate Christmas (a festival for all of humanity, not just one religion) by joining in this (holy & real) ascent (of the Sun’s rays uplifting) and introducing into our daily activity a new & better rhythm, better desires and thoughts, words and actions.” -MPK, “The Winter Solstice” We are in a special time this year on our yearly journey at the end of 2014. Saturn was at 29.59 at the beginning of this writing. At the end of this writing, Saturn had entered Sagittarius. Saturn - ending his time in Scorpio in order to enter Sag (for a while). At 8:34am west, 10:34am midwest, 11:34am east. (see chart, beginning of 9th house). Saturn is the Law of Economy, Ray 3 (thus also Libra, Ray 3). In between ages Libra streams in to “balance the scales, the old & the new.” We are in between Ages – Pisces to Aquarius. Thus we see the entire world involved in a reorientation of the economic situation. The Forces of Materialism (taking things away from humanity) battling the Forces of Light (attempting to bring forth a new world economy). Saturn offers us “not deprivation, but a opportunity to mature & become responsible” with our economy, finances & resources. Humanity, disciplined under Saturn becomes the World Disciple (Scorpio & Sag tasks). Saturn – the Dweller on the Threshold – stands as the Great Disciplinarian & Teacher between our past & present/future. Saturn asks us to face our past, recognize & understand it, reorient all that we’ve learned in order to create our present/future. A difficult task. One that calls for the Angel of the Presence to assist us. More on Saturn in Sag at a later time. *** Year’s End, Journey’s Ending Like Saturn, we too are ending a journey – that of the year 2014. At the end of each year we stand in darkness. 29 degrees of any sign is difficult as is -=1 degree. It’s a transition time. We are in that transition during these days, awaiting the new light midnight, Christmas Eve. It is like a new moon, just prior to the waxing (building) of the light. We are at the dawn of a new cycle (the new light cycle for the new year of 2015). We stand “in the dark.” What is light for us at this time is the Light of the World Soul. The Sun’s light is at the center of the earth. The World Soul above & surrounding the Earth. In the darkest time of the year we attune & align with the Sun’s hidden light & the Soul’s directive light. *** Preparations of the Hierarchy for Wesak At Winter Solstice each year, the Hierarchy begins its preparations for Wesak, the Buddha Taurus full moon, Sunday, May 3, 2015. When the Buddha transmits to Earth Blessings from the Father, the Shamballa Blessings. We join with the Hierarchy in this endeavor of preparation. At least in knowing about this. We join with the Hierarchy & the Christ in intention, dedication & preparation. Alignments During these days of darkness seeking the light, we are aligned with the Galactic Center – mentioned days previously. There is an alignment with the heart of our Galaxy…where information is stored, brought forth through the Light of the Sun. In silent contemplation we can ask about the work we are to do in the future. When we ask, answers are always given. Unexpectedly (Uranus). Sirius – where love originates is 13 Cancer (joining the US Sun in Cancer at 12 degrees). Opposite this degree of 13 Cancer is 13 Capricorn. This occurs the first few days of January each year. Earth’s Sun aligns with Sirius on these days. Love flows into the Earth. We are also in preparation for this alignment (Sirius opposite Sun – 13 Cancer/Capricorn). It’s good to know these things. They are the fabric of the new rhythms of our new lives as we step upon a new higher spiral of livingness. These words are Esoteric. ***New Rhythms Creating new rhythms – I posted this several days ago. I will post it again January 1, 2014 – It is about creating new ways of living, new rhythms based upon Esoteric & Cosmic Teachings. “Every morning during the twilight we have the visit of the Agnishvattas, the Devas of the 5th plane, the mental plane (where the Soul resides). They carry the spiritual and material energies (to Earth). Once a month they visit us in a greater measure, during the 24 hours after the new moon point. Then annually there is also a bigger visit in the month of Capricorn, the dawn of the year. With every dawn, when darkness is turning into light, it is the visit of the Agnishvattas, and this occurs daily. Whenever we think of them, there is a dawning. And thus, the light slowly dawns in us.” -MPK, Capricorn 2014 All hearts are illumined at this time – the heart of the heart, the heart of Sirius, the heart of the Galaxy, the Heart of Hierarchy (Ashram of Sanat Kumara, Lord of the World in Shamballa), the heart of the Christ, the heart within all the kingdoms, and mist directly the heart of all of humanity. With hearts connected, “Love is released” into the world.” Solar, Cosmic, Galactic. This release of Love & Light is directly aligned with the release of the Wesak Blessings in May. As we participate in this event each year, the Hierarchy, the Christ, the Buddha, the Father of the World looks on. They see the Light within the NGWS glowing brightly. In turn the NGWS calls to humanity to join them. And thus the light spreads outward. From above to below, side to side… From the 23-25th – it is a time of judgment – there is a review of the past, of one’s life, one’s service, one’s inner alignment. The Rod of Justice is applied. We are assessed. Like Saturn’s role, assessing us. *** The Teachings of the Tibetan on Christmas (continuing) Destiny of the Nations – 149-151 “The message of the birth of Christ rings ever new but is not today understood. The emphasis during the Aquarian Age, the age into which we are fast entering, will shift away from Bethlehem (House of Bread) to Jerusalem (inner Esoteric Temple of Peace), and from the infant Savior (birth Initiation, holy child, dawn of new teachings of new light) to the Risen Christ (Earth & her kingdoms uplifted to the Light). Pisces has seen, during two thousand years (in the Age of Pisces, age of faith, hope, visions, religions, etc. for humanity to give them hope), the spreading light (of intelligence world wide – the horizontal cross); Aquarius will see the Rising Light (the vertical Cross), and of both of these (crosses) the Christ (who anchored Love & Wisdom) is the eternal symbol. The ancient story of the Holy Birth will become universalized and be seen as the story of every (human, all of humanity) disciple and initiate who takes the first initiation (Initiation of the Birth into the New Light of the Soul) and in his time and place becomes a server and a light-bearer. In the Aquarian Age (where we are now at its beginnings) two momentous developments will take place 1. The Birth Initiation (the birth of awareness, consciousness – Ray 3, Intelligence – through the Reorientation of the Economy – what is occurring now – notes from Risa) will condition human thinking and aspiration everywhere. 2. The religion of the Risen Christ (Rising Light), and not of the newly born Christ (baby) or of the crucified (death) Christ, will be the distinctive keynote. It is seldom realized that hundreds of thousands of people in every land have taken, or are preparing to take, this first initiation, called the Birth at Bethlehem, the House of Bread (signifying money, food, resources, that which in our world today is being conditioned & manipulated by the Forces of Materialism – note from Risa). Humanity, the world disciple (still to identify itself as such), is now ready for this. Indications of the accuracy of the above statement can be seen in the reorientation of people everywhere to things spiritual, their interest in human good and human welfare, the perseverance they show in their search for light and their longing and desire for a true peace, based on right human relations, implemented by goodwill.

We learn together in our Esoteric Ashramic College of Arts & Sciences. We learn together. Reflection upon our Studies As is always important – The Homework which is really your responses directed by Saturn (the Teacher). Questions to Ponder... What did you learn here in the readings? What is new? What is interesting? What questions do you have? What more would you like to study about these things. From the Ashram College – we stay poised, silent, contemplative, in vigil. In the Bardos – *** Joe Cocker – b. May 20, 1944, d. Dec. 22, 2014 (age 70). Aries Rising Moon, Mercury Venus, Sun in Taurus (a singer, as Taurus rules the throat). This morning we stand with Joe Cocker who was “called back” last night. Now he sings in the Ashram.
