The Dark Forces
Excerpts from the work of the Tibetan (Djwhal Khul)
through Alice A. Bailey
I might here touch upon the paralleling activity of the forces which are
working to prevent the externalization of the Hierarchy of Light, since such a happening
as that would mean increased - because proven - power.
The three modes whereby the forces of darkness
seek to control humanity, are: hatred, aggression, and separativeness.
The three great spiritual counterparts are: love, selfless sharing, and synthesis.
The dark forces... work by the identification of glamour [illusions],
and by the stimulation of the lower psychic powers. If
these evil forces cannot induce the disciples everywhere, in group formation or individually, to succumb in some form
to glamour, then they will endeavor to utilize group glamour to negative their efforts, and force those with whom the
disciples work to believe evil, to impugn motives...
If this cannot be done, they may then attack the physical bodies of the workers and agents for the Hierarchy, and
seek, through the distress of the physical body, to control the disciple's output. This does not always prove
successful, as the Master can, and often does protect His disciple.
Evil or wrong exists only when the emphasis is retained in
the wrong aspect from the point of view of the unfoldment attained, or when that which has
been used and developed to the necessary point, holds the life or consciousness too long.
Hence the beneficent nature of death.
The major weapon now being used by the
combined forces of evil is: chaos, disruption, lack of established security, and the
consequent fear...
The entire rhythm of international thinking has to be altered, and that
constitutes a slow and arduous task; the evil personalities which, in every country which
are responsible for the chaos & uncertainty, have eventually to be replaced by those
who can work in cooperation with the rhythm of the seventh ray, and thus produce ordered
beauty. (2-668)
These forces, as far as the intelligent peoples of the
world are concerned, work insidiously and cloak their effort in fair words, leading even
disciples to express hatred of persons and ideologies, fostering hidden seeds of hatred
found in many human beings. They fan to fury the fear and hate of the world in an effort
to preserve that which is old, and make the unknown appear undesirable, and they hold back
the forces of evolution and of progress for their own ends.
These forces which it is well for you to recognize as
existing, but there is little that you, as individuals or as groups can do about them
beyond seeing to it that there is nothing in you which could make you---unimportant as you
are---a focal point for their efforts or an agent for the distribution of their peculiar
type of energy---the energy of focused and directed hate, of separation, of fear and
pride. With them We who are connected directly with the Hierarchy have to deal, but you
can aid more than you know through the regulation of thoughts and ideas, through
cultivation of a loving spirit, and through the use of the
Great
Invocation. (2-75/76)
The Dark Brothers are -- remember this always-- brothers,
erring and misguided, yet still sons of the one Father, though straying far, very far,
into the land of distances. The way back for them will be long, but the mercy of evolution
inevitably forces them back along the path of return in cycles far ahead. Anyone who
over-exalts the concrete mind and permits it continuously to shut out the higher, is in
danger of straying on the left-hand path. Many so stray ... but come back, and then in the
future avoid like errors, in the same way as a child once burnt avoids the fire. It is the
man who persists, in spite of warning and of pain, who eventually becomes a brother of
darkness...
The dark brother considers not what suffering he may
cause; he cares not what agony of mind he brings upon an opponent; he persists in his
intention, and desists to from the hurt of any man, woman or child, provided that in the
process his own ends are furthered. Expect absolutely no mercy from those opposing the
Brotherhood of Light.
Many and subtle are the means used to deceive and thereby
curtail the effective output of the worker in the field of the world. Wisely therefore
have all aspirants been enjoined to study and work at the development of viveka or
that discrimination which safeguards from deception. If this quality is laboriously built
in and cultivated in all events, big and little in the daily life, the risks of being led
astray will be nullified.(3-132-134)
When the Christ, the Avatar of Love, makes His Reappearance then will the Sons
of men who are now the Sons of God withdraw Their faces from the shining light &
radiate that light upon the sons of men who know not yet that they are Sons of God. Then
shall the Coming One appear, His footsteps hastened through the valley of the shadow by
the One of awful power Who stands upon the mountain top, breathing out love eternal, light
supernal & peaceful, silent Will. Then will the sons of men respond. Then will a newer
light shine forth into the dismal, weary vale of earth. Then will new life course through
the veins of men, & then will their vision compass all the ways of what may be. (5-13)
One of our immediate educational objectives must be the
elimination of the competitive spirit, and the substitution of the cooperative
consciousness.(6-74)
The only regret that is justifiable is based on failure to
learn the lessons of failure.
Be not in any way discouraged brother of old, if you find
the upward way stiff and hard to climb. You are in good company and are not alone.(7-599)
I sound, however, a note of warning, I indicate the way,—the
teachers on the inner side seldom do more. We aim at developing
thinkers and men of clear vision, capable of logical reasoning.
To do this we teach men to develop themselves, to do their own
thinking, reason out their own problems, and build their own
characters. Such is the Path... August 2, 1920: (3)

Into the New World my first message.
You who gave the Ashram,
And you who gave two lives,
Proclaim.
Builders and warriors, strengthen the steps.
Reader, if you have not grasped — read again,
after a while.
The predestined is not accidental,
The leaves fall in their time.
And winter is but the harbinger of spring.
All is revealed; all is attainable.
I will cover you with My shield,
if you but tend to your labors.
I have spoken.
There is no salvation
surer than that through devotion. One can
forgive much where there is unswerving devotion.
The man who is devoted in heart can be relied
upon. It is cause for rejoicing when Hierarchy
is upheld by devotion. At present it is
especially needed. If yesterday's confusion
seemed enormous, what can one say of tomorrow's?
I have already prepared you for the growth ofArmageddon,
and you know that the black wings of darkness
will not withstand the Fiery Sword. Be not
astonished, the Battle increases!

Transmission Meditation
Groups
It is the
creation, in co-operation with the Hierarchy of Masters, of a
vortex or pool of higher energy for the benefit of humanity. There are more than 600 Transmission groups in 40 countries
worldwide meeting on a regular basis. You may join an existing
group in your area, or form your own group by simply inviting a
few interested friends to meet with you at least once a week.
All you need is the intention to do so and the desire to serve.
There is never any fee to participate.

If we compare two
individuals, of whom one dissipates the vital substance while
the other consciously conserves it, we will be amazed at how
much more sensitive the spiritual apparatus of the second
becomes. The quality of his labors becomes entirely different,
and the quantity of his projects and ideas multiplies. The
centers of the solar plexus and brain are being heated, as it
were, by an invisible fire.

Benjamin Creme discusses the emergence of Maitreya, The World Teacher
Maitreya Dancing in Karbala (believe it or
not!)
The
"Horseman" appears @ 1:23:
Kalki Avatar with the sword of cleavage
"In Hinduism, Kalki (Devanagari: कल्कि; meaning 'Eternity,' 'White
Horse,' or 'Destroyer of Filth') is the final incarnation of Vishnu
[Maitreya, the World Teacher] in the current Mahayuga, foretold to
appear at the end of Kali Yuga [now!]...the Puranas foretell that
Kalki will be atop a white horse with a drawn blazing sword. He is
the harbinger of the end time in Hindu eschatology, after which he
will usher in Satya Yuga [New Age]."Source:
Wikipedia
"When Maitreya comes before
the worldthere
will begin for men a period of intense heart-searching and
reflection. It is only to be expected that for many it will be a
painful, even traumatic, one. So steeped in the ways and ideas
of the past, so fearful of a future unknown and strange, are
millions today, that men will want to take stock of the new
situation which will then pertain…. When Maitreya first
announces His plans and hopes for the rehabilitation of the
world, His energy of Love – the Sword of Cleavage – will further
delineate the divisions which now exist. Men will take sides –
for or against the new principles that He will present for the
betterment of all. Thus will it be. Thus will a period of
discord and discontent precede the acceptance of the new.
Gradually, however, even the least sanguine will acknowledge the
need for a reconstructed world and add their weight to the task.
"There will begin a time unlike aught seen before on Earth. On
every hand and at every level the changes will pursue their
logical course, cementing in law and principle and form the
aspirations of all. Thus will men regain a hold on their destiny
and turn away for ever from the abyss. (The Master -- from
‘Coping with change’)
=========================================
The Sword of Cleavage is the energy of Love. As people respond
to this energy the world will be divided – those who are
clamouring for change along the lines Maitreya is advocating,
and those who are fearful and looking to the past, who see Him
as the Antichrist, are fearful and do not know what to do. They
will stand aside and watch the events, and so lose the
opportunity presented, for the first time in history, to take
part in the transformation of the world. It is up to each
individual, from where he or she stands, to assert their
divinity. (Benjamin Creme, The Awakening of Humanity)
=========================================
"Much that is loved must go. Cling
not to the old forms. Much will depend on man’s ability to
renounce these outworn structures, and to create a new and
simpler world. Remember this. Forget not that I come to change
all things. My Coming brings peace. Likewise, My Presence brings
cleavage. My Sword, that Love which I am, will separate all men,
will show the True from the false, will clear the way for the
New Light which I bring. May it be that you can withstand this
change and accept My Light. (Maitreya, from Message No.74)

In an interview
with the German author Peter Andreas, the scientist Prof. G.
Quispel expresses his amazement that the demonstrably wrong
ideas on this subject have not been abandoned:
"I am constantly astonished
to see that people still do not appear to know what has been
recognized for one and a half centuries: that the beast
from the Apocalypse refers to none other than the Caesar,
Nero. Only the later Christian church, in the time of
Constantine (325 AD), put the Apocalypse into a future,
historical time-frame."(From:Was
Morgenwahr sein kann,Econ

666 -- and other misunderstandings
http://www.share-international.org/archives/agelesswisdom/aw_pl666.htm
One of the easiest ways to know me, Maitreya says, is to
be
honest in your mind, be sincere in your spirit, and practice detachment. Any
action performed with dishonesty of mind, an insincere spirit and attachment
is destructive. For example, when you think one thing, say another, and do
something which is different again, you are lost. Honesty of mind leads to
honest speech and honest action. This harmony leads to peace and happiness.
Without detachment there is no salvation.
Be what you are. Do not surrender your self-respect, your
dignity, to others. Do not allow anyone to cast his shadow over you. A
Master gives experiences, but does not cast his shadow.
Do not follow one another. If you practice honesty of mind,
sincerity of spirit and detachment, you will know me, you will know the
Lord.
