Dear Cass,
Your post caught my eye. You express something that occurrs to me
often. In this cycle we have been given, at great personal cost to
some very fine individuals, a chance to understand more about who we
are and why we are here than humanity has ever been given before. We
have developed the internet as a means of communication that has
never been equalled, as far as we know, for its power to reach around
the world, and we use this extraordinary opportunity to carp and
cavil about petty and meaningless details, even indulging in endless
speculation about the validity and authenticity of the messenger who
brought the information. It seems like the very worst sort of
squandering of energy, a thing warned against in all occult teaching.
One can only assume that those who use this venue in such a way
simply choose to align themselves with the group that tries to
destroy any efforts toward progress and unity essayed by humanity.
It's just the inevitable polarity of forces. Any progress toward the
consciousness of the Unity of all life generates its opposite force.
And everyone who goes along with their efforts at sabotage is simply
subscribing to the old saw, "Better the familiar darkness than the
unfamiliar Light."
All this is not really cause for concern, however. The forces of
darkness cannot prevail. The can delay and obscure, but they only
serve the purpose of helping the individual to come to a realization
of the truth, that it is the Light, the realm of Love and Compassion,
of Altruism and Devotion, that is real, and that all else is dust and
ashes.
It behooves any who see past these continual efforts to throw mud on
the finest offerings of humanity to redouble our efforts to live
according to our highest ideals, to put the ancient teaching into
practice in our daily lives, to generate centers of light for the
benefit of those around us. We have fine examples in the lives of
such luminaries as HPB, WQJ, and others, who devoted their life
energy to the work given them from within. We really can make a
difference. There are no little things. We never know when some
trivial action of our own, unnoticed in the daily train of events,
will be the one that will change the course of history. And those
forces of darkness that make so much noise and confusion? they simply
cease to have any power over us.
