Esoteric Astrology - The Science of Triangles - Conclusions
The problem of all disciples remains the same. This is to live simultaneously the acutely sensitive inner life of the Pilgrim upon the path of life, of a human being in the world of human events; to live the group life of the pledged disciple and the mass life of humanity; to fulfil his own spiritual destiny, through the medium of a controlled personality and, at the same time, to participate fully in the life of humanity upon Earth - this is no easy task. We have completed what I felt possible to communicate anent the Science, of Triangles - a science which concerns the entire subjective pattern of manifestation and the significance of which is closely interrelated with the Trinity of manifestation. Another name for this science is the Science of Etheric Structure or Substance. That being so, that science deals with life, quality and appearance in the three worlds of divine Purpose and Will and, for that [499] reason, all that I can do in this treatise is to convey to you certain "seed thoughts" which - at some future date - will blossom forth as the basic Science of Relations. This subjective relation will be both vertical and horizontal, particular and universal, specific and general. With the present mental equipment of humanity, all that is possible for man is to grasp certain facts and vaguely sense certain intuitive implications and ideas. Later, he will perceive intuitively the underlying structure of ideas and sense the basic synthesis which life itself contains. Therefore, beyond what I have given you, you cannot go today. But the aftermath of the war will change all this. Once there is a measure of nervous release from strain and once the swing of the world-movement has again stabilized, humanity will transcend itself. The spiritual values will emerge more clearly, the fact of the inner world will be no longer questioned as man's increased sensitivity enables him to respond to the higher impression and the inner inspiration; his ability to live the vertical life of the spirit and the horizontal life of relationship will grow with each decade. Then the relation of life to form, of spirit to body, of the soul to the personality will demonstrate in the realm of quality, and the quality of the immediate divine aspect, the Christ consciousness, will emerge in a manner undreamed of today by any of you - even the most advanced thinkers. Speculation on your part is useless. Time alone will serve to demonstrate the veracity of the picture I portray and the validity of the inner spiritual structure. This structure has always been present but it has been heavily overlaid by the material desires of mankind. A thick crust (if I may use such a word) of thought-forms veils and hides the inner realm of beauty and of meaning, of quality and of spiritual consciousness. This crust is being blasted away by the present [500] catastrophic condition in the world. Men will feel at the close of this present war as if nothing had been left them and that they are destitute and denuded of all that made life worth living - so dependent have they become upon the so-called high scale of living. But these attitudes will serve as stepping stones to a new life and a better and more simple way of living; new values will be released and comprehended among men and new goals will be revealed. And the day will come, in the experience of humanity, when men will look back at the pre-war centuries and wonder at their blindness and be shocked at their selfish and materialistic past. The future will shine with an added glory and, though difficulties and the problems incident to world adjustment and the new relationships between the spiritual man and his material environment will be found, the future will prove itself as the best yet unrolled. Difficulties will be found on all planes up until the last initiation but the destructiveness of the life process will never again be so potent. The reason for this is that humanity is most definitely emerging from the thralldom of matter and in such cases destruction parallels the impact of the descending spirit upon opposing matter. Ponder on this statement. [503]
