The Externalization of the Hierarchy - Section II - The General World Picture
In connection with the petals of the lotus, you will find a close connection with the forces of the five kingdoms in nature; therefore, to the tabulation which was earlier given I would add the following for your consideration: [92] 5th Kingdom - Intuition - spiritual soul - head center 4th Kingdom - Intelligence - human soul - throat center 3rd Kingdom - Instinct - animal soul - solar plexus 2nd Kingdom - Sentiency - feeling consciousness - heart center 1st Kingdom - Response - subconsciousness - base of spine To this you may add the following:
1. | Shamballa | Head Lotus. | Kingdom of God. Quality of Will. | 1st Ray | Will.
2. | Hierarchy | Heart Center. | Kingdom of Souls. Quality of Giving. Love. | 2nd Ray | Love.
3. | Humanity | Throat Center. | Kingdom of man. Quality of Acquisitiveness. | 4th Ray | Harmony through Conflict.
4. | The Jews | Solar Plexus Center. | Kingdom of man. Quality of Separativeness. | 3rd Ray | Active Intelligence.
[93] These can be linked up with the kingdoms in nature, but in this particular cycle it is not possible to fit them in such a way that the correspondence will appear to you as accurate. The mineral kingdom and the Forces of Materialism do not really coincide today, for the one works through the sacral center at this time, and the other through the center at the base of the spine. Esoteric students must always remember that no correspondences are correct and entirely accurate in their parallelism in this solar system of changing forces, shifting cycles and constant mutation directed towards the inscrutable ends of Deity - inscrutable as far as the human consciousness is concerned. They remain inscrutable to humanity, because the three major ends or purposes which affect you, for instance, as members of the fourth kingdom in nature are: The direction in which the solar Logos is going upon the Cosmic Path. Esoterically - The Way towards the Central Spiritual Sun. The plans of the planetary Logos upon the Systemic Path. Esoterically - The Way towards the Heart of the Sun. The purpose ahead for the human family upon the Path of Light. Esoterically - The Way of the Sun. I put this in here only to show you how vague and uncertain are your very highest speculations. Be content with your duty and the immediate service which will lead you a step further upon the way to which you are ordained, and this way you can travel rapidly and with eager feet or slowly and with lagging steps. The above enumerated forces are, however, part of the temporary interlocking of energies which is going on between the many expressions of the creative process at this time. They are likewise conditioned by the incoming Aquarian force and "measured" by the outgoing Piscean forces. [94] I would have you note here my use of the word "forces" and "force," for not idly have I made them singular and plural.
