Approximate Launch Date, 475BC
It is intended, as you have been
told that Humanity itself will be the world-savior, working with the aid
of the Hierarchy— as yet invisibly behind the scenes.
Externalization of the Hierarchy P.588
Good evening Friends: The Pisces Project had a launch date of approximately 475 B.C. With the subsequent launch of The Aquarian Project, around 1625 A.D., the Pisces Project is drawing, rather quickly, I think, to a close. This evening I want to share some thoughts I have about the Pisces Project— you may think of this as a kind of preliminary evaluation—, and I want to make a few comments about the goals and objectives of the rapidly expanding Aquarian Project which will be with us for the next 2500 years or so.
Let me start by making a few general
remarks about the concept of A Divine Plan, and then talk specifically
about The Pisces Project piece. These remarks, including the ones about
The Pisces and the Aquarian Projects, I must tell you, are not readings
from the Akashic Records or any thing of that nature. They are
whisperings, perhaps, from some inner source, but no more than that, just
my simple opinions, the results, in most cases, of my creative musings…
quite fun actually.
Well, first off, I think that the
concept of the Divine Plan, or of A Divine Plan is, at long last,
beginning to gain credence in scientific and academic circles. A
conversation I had with my brother the other day offers one of the many
possible examples of this growing awareness on the part of the scientific
community. My brother, who as a professor of Biology was a rather
dedicated neo-Darwinian, shared with me that some scientists who were
conducting probability research had concluded that the probability of
complex systems such as the human immune system occurring spontaneously or
developing by accident through some hocus pocus the neo Darwinians call
“fortuitous mutations” was so remote that it was improbable. This has led
to some rather guarded conclusions on the part of these scientists that
there may have been a “guiding hand” of some sort behind the evolution of
the human immune system. You can check this out in Michael Behe’s book,
Darwin’s Black Box. A nuclear physicist from MIT, Dr. Schroeder, working
at the sub molecular level, comes to similar conclusions in his book The
Hidden Face of God. I can’t tell you how significant these kinds of
developments are, and they are occurring with greater and greater
frequency through out the world of physical science.
As data of this nature continues to
come to light, the arguments that support the validity of a separative
material reality as the only reality— thus denying any possible existence
of a non-material or spiritual reality— will continue to crumble with the
consequent receding of the Paradigm of Separation. The systems of human
interaction and living that are based on this old paradigm, that is the
economic, political, social and physical infrastructure of the current
civilization or modern world, will, likewise, gradually crumble and
disappear.
My sense is that this gradual
revelation of the synthetic reality is in itself an unfolding aspect of
the Pisces Project. It was a foreseen and planned part of that project.
This revelation of synthesis is a process which is going forward because
of and as an example of the evolution of consciousness, of the rapidly
expanding awareness of the collective human mental body. The evolution of
the mental body is enabling more and more individual human beings to make
brain conscious contact with the inner source of their being.
It is The Aquarian Project, of
course, that contains the goals and objectives for the creation of a new
civilization built on a consciousness base that includes the relative
reality of both the physical and spiritual worlds. From the limited
perspective available to present day fore-searchers, it is difficult to
see the long range outcomes of the Aquarian Project. But I think we can
safely say that the evolving Aquarian civilization will not be a one
dimensional physical plane real only thing. The sub-planes of the etheric
world will be as evident as the dense physical planes are now. The 6th
plane, the Astral will be very much a reality for most human beings.
Telepathy will be relatively common, and thus, the spiritual aspects of
life will occupy a major place in the outer forms of the Aquarian world.
Imagine yourself living in a holographic world that includes the etheric
and astral planes as well as the dense physical and you will get some
insight into the way it will be.
One of the goals of the Pisces
Project, as you all know, was to bring the scientific community of
humanity to the point of rediscovering the etheric sub planes of the dense
physical plane, and, as one of the results of the kinds of revelations I
mentioned above, I do think that the scientific community is on the verge
of admitting the existence of the etheric world— that is both copping to
it and allowing it in. So, I think that sooner, rather than later, now, we
will be hearing respected academics, scientists, researchers and the like
talking, not about whether there is a Plan, but about the nature and
dimensions of that Plan.
We frequently miss these and other
kinds of indicators of the progress and development of the Pisces Project
because, forgetting who and where we are, we do not look out into the
world from the point of view of that unfolding reality. Instead we become
lost in maya, and, focused on the wild gyrations of the fading material
paradigm, we lose touch with the whole.
An example: Currently, the forces of
retrogression, working trough whatever channels they can find, are hell
bent on doing a war. This will be, if it happens, a real bummer, the gory
and terrible details of which we have all heard enumerated many times.
Along with the terrible details of what will result if there is war, we
have heard numerous explanations of why this war is wanted, most of which
revolve around oil and money and power. Lying behind those reasons,
however, is the larger purpose of the Forces of Retrogression. Let us not
forget that they too have a project and a plan, and their desire is to
maintain, at any cost, the Kali Yuga, to keep the Old World Order in
Place.
If one were to see only this aspect
of the world picture, one would, understandably, be rather depressed and
discouraged. However, as I have been meditating, writing and speaking
about this situation, for the last few years now, I have gradually come to
the conclusion, some will say to the delusion, that the birth of the New
World Order, a key goal of the Pisces Project, is really unstoppable. This
child will be born into the Light of a New Aquarian Day. The further
growth and development of this child, of course, concerns the substance of
the Aquarian Project.
I, for one, perhaps naively, thought
that if we could mobilize public opinion, particularly the planetary
intelligentsia, we would have an excellent chance of avoiding war. It does
appear, however, that the current holders of power in the United States
will ignore the massive world wide demonstrations, made up mainly of the
world’s thinking people, which are demanding a path of peaceful solution.
This arrogant ignoring of the voice
of humanity on the part of the present holders of power is perhaps the
best example of the true way the Old World Order functions that we have
ever had.
However, regardless of this self
conscious and separative action, the work has been done. I think that the
momentum of the One Humanity, the World Savior, cannot now be stopped.
Even if there is a war, even if the United States “goes it alone” or
whatever term is applied to this hubristic action, the goodwill and
determination of the people, of humanity, of the subjective United
Nations, has shown itself and will continue to grow. It is my thinking,
friends, not that we will over come, but that we have overcome.
It may take a little while yet to
manifest in the dense physical, but I think that the efforts of
“enlightened souls functioning upon the physical plane and working
desperately to aid humanity.” has carried the day. No one will deny that
these are, indeed, desperate times, and if you hear a note of desperation
in the voices of the workers, it is because it is there. Yet, while we are
indeed desperate, we are still full of hope and spiritual will. Remember,
“There is a basic distinction between desperation and pessimism.
Desperation is related to the time element and to a correct and
discriminative perception of the need. Pessimism is related more to an
unjust appraisement of the quality of humanity.”
Discipleship In The New Age II, P. 64
The intensity of the spiritual
desperation of these disciples has provided the required point of tension
which has ignited within the hearts of many millions of people from all
over the world, a flame of concern for human liberty and equality, and
generated within the minds of these same millions a revelatory
understanding of human interdependence. Both of these were key goals of
the Pisces Project. This objective of the Project was to bring Humanity to
a such a keen point of awareness of and appreciation for its synthetic
existence that it would move as one body to solve problems from the levels
of the collective mind and heart rather than continuing to apply physical
might and the force of arms to impose separative, and frequently
culturally exclusive points of view on one another.
The world wide events demanding an
intelligent and loving solution to the current problems with Iraq that we
have all been witnessing speak eloquently of the success of this phase of
the Pisces Project. The present level of this concern and understanding is
unparalleled in history, and, as I have said, it will continue to grow.
Once the Iraq issue is past, however it works out, this newly generated
awareness will turn with power and determination to other issues of human
concern such as feeding the starving and housing the exposed.
Everyone who has looked carefully at
the events leading up to the apparent sudden collapse of the Berlin Wall
realizes that the momentum of that event was building for years. Shifts of
world opinion like this do not occur over night. What we are seeing unfold
before our eyes is the centuries long evolution of an idea and the
powerful implementation of a thoughtform. The thoughtform driving these
events is just now becoming obvious enough for people to see, and it has a
ways to go yet; however, this amazing world wide development, coupled with
revelations of science, will continue to cause the gradual termination of
the Kali Yuga and the Old World Order.
This birth is really not stoppable
at this point. So, what we actually see going on now is the dying
struggle, the death throes, one might say, of an old and outworn body
trying to hold onto its form, its sense of identity. However, as every old
and outworn body that ever existed has, this one, too, will fail.
Thus has the Pisces Project, an
aspect of the Divine Plan, even if mostly unseen by humanity, peering, as
it does, through the veil of the Great Illusion, been steadily, unfolding.
Let's go back to the launch date for
a minute. Everyone who is familiar with the way the 5th Kingdom, the
Spiritual Hierarchy, works knows that they do a lot of Planning. We know
for example that they have a major planning Conclave every 100 years. This
conclave is called by Sanat Kumara’s sounding forth the O, the first
letter of the Sacred Word. “At these Councils, Those Who are responsible
for the planetary development, along certain predetermined lines, make
Their reports; decision is made as to new unfoldments; certain types of
energy, cosmic and solar, are made available for the carrying forward of
the Plans which implement the Purpose; the evolution of consciousness in
the three worlds receives, necessarily, major attention.” Rays and
Initiations P. 207 D,K, also mentions quarterly meetings, and we know that
every nine years “…the Hierarchy meets in silent conclave, [at which] a
part of God's vision, and His formulation of that vision for the immediate
present, is revealed for the next nine year cycle.” Esoteric Psychology
VII P.241,2 The next nine year cycle meeting will be held in 2005.
So, imagine the Master Planners
looking ahead at the 475 BC Conclave, they could see that the impending
Piscean Age offered the best chance for a break out from the Kali Yuga
that had been available for a very long time. They could see what was
needed and they could see that there was a chance that the evolution of
humanity could possibly make it. The primary project goal, of course, was
that humanity itself would have to become the world savior. For a basic
element of the Divine Plan has always been human free will. “It is
humanity which determines its own destiny.”
Discipleship In The New Age II, P. 69
To get this project off the ground,
The planners arranged for a very high level being, the Hierarch who held
the office of the Christ at that particular time, to come in in early
Pisces. A primary aspect of this Avatar’s assignment was to provide a
living model of certain qualities and skills that would be necessary for
the birth of the New World Order, or for the birth of the Christ child in
the cave of the Human heart. These qualities were basically love and
wisdom.
Another equally important aspect of
the assignment was to do demonstrate that death was a form issue, not a
Life issue. The objective was to model that the much feared event of
dying, of death, was simply a process through which Life moves out of a
form. The demonstration of this basic fact of the nature of synthetic
reality was accomplished through His death and resurrection.
However, largely because of the
overwhelming emphasis placed by the religious community on the bloody and
painful way that the Avatar was crucified, this particular aspect of the
Project did not fair well until very recently. The revelations of science
and the evolution of the human mental body continue to erode this barrier
of fear and glamour, and Life is slowly, but in my opinion unstoppably
now, making its way into human awareness. Everyday, more and more human
beings are freeing themselves from their mortal, meat bound existence and
identifying with their immortal inner reality, their souls or inner
beings, call it what you will. Thus, the Specter of Death, this ancient
terrorist, bogy man of the forces of retrogression, is about to die.
The results of humanity’s finally
realizing that death is an illusion and that immortality is what we live
with are another major aspect of the Aquarian Project, particularly that
part of the project which concerns the externalization of the Ashrams.
Also, it follows that, just as there
was early in the Pisces project, there will be the appearance, early in
the Aquarian Project of a very high level Avatar. We, of course, are all
looking forward to the reappearance of the Hierarch who holds the office
of the Christ, We are expecting this Avatar will bring and model the
qualities necessary for the successful implementation of the Aquarian
Project, at least one of those qualities being an understanding of the
synthetic nature of Divine Will.
We know that it was intended, from
the very beginning, that humanity itself would evolve into the World
Savior. This was the primary goal of the Pisces Project. To accomplish
this goal, it was realized that humanity would have to sacrifice its ages
long identification with the form world, and thus open to and embrace the
reality of Spirit and the Endless Way. As the Aquarian Age unfolds, we
will see humanity relinquishing its grasp of the physical planet, thus
making it totally available for the animal vegetable and mineral kingdoms.
We will eventually become truly the husbands of the planet.
Humanity has been moving toward the
point of identification with its spiritual reality for about 2500 years. I
think we have actually been into the substance of facing that opportunity
for the past 75 years or so, and this current crisis around the war issue
might be a kind of culminating point. The possibility of this war
happening is, as I said, an important, but not defining moment in this
decision; for, even if there is a war, the movement of life out of the old
form will continue. If there is not a war, the real problems we face will
not be solved, not by a long shot.
Humanity needs to bring the entire
world up to the table. The fact of the One Humanity and the importance of
every single individual must finally be recognized and honored. We will
accomplish this, as I said, by sacrificing our sense of material
identification, and by relinquishing our grasp of the material world. We
will thereby learn the wonders of abundance and the power of sharing.
Sharing is, of course, simply the name for the economic system of
synthesis. One could go on and on, but In closing this evening, I would like to bring forward one last element of the plan for the Pisces Project. This was part of the plan when it was originally formulated back in 475 BC or so. It would probably appear in the Closing Days section of the plan, under a sub heading like, The Triumph. The primary goal of the Project, let us recall was that Humanity itself will be the world-savior. That particular line goes on to say, “working with the aid of the Hierarchy— as yet invisibly behind the scenes.” Externalization of the Hierarchy P. 539 So, around 1945, the closing days of the Pisces Project, to push it over the top, actually, the Hierarchy caused to be released the final stanza of the Great Invocation. I think a careful analysis of the way this magical formula directs energy will reveal that Humanity is the vessel into which the Light, Love and Power of the Lord of the World has been invoked and directly and deliberately poured over the past 58 years. That’s some pretty heavy help. The implications of this are worth meditating on, particularly the 4th verse,
Can there be any doubt at all about
the successful out come of the Pisces Project. I leave you this evening
with the following comment from Master Morya: “Amidst the unfathomable tumult of life do We erect our Temple. Deeply laid is the foundation. The builders laying the base know not the grandeur of the future towers. But the architect already has designed their height.”
