Along the Path
To the Great Spirit of Shamballa
November 1957
Greetings!
Born out of the seed-idea received by our gracious Regent, Sanat Kumara, in his earnest and selfless desire to help the sweet Earth in her time of greatest darkness; nourished by his love and the selfless renunciation of his Divine Complement, the Cosmic Being Venus¾the Spirit of Shamballa was Earth-born in the very presence of Sanat Kumara himself and his Spiritual Court, being practically made manifest in the substance of this physical appearance world by his willing helpers.
The Spirit of Shamballa then became
¾and remains today¾a living, pulsating, vibrant, and radiating center of Living Light; motivated by Divine LOVE, sustained by SERVICE, energized by PRACTICAL WORKS on behalf of the redemption of the evolutions using the planet Earth as a schoolroom.Each Being, including Lord Gautama and Lord Maitreya, responded to the Divine feeling of that ineffable love, entered into the shining presence of Shamballa. and received there the impetus to go forth in impersonal service. After each visit, They left some of their own essence of Universal Brotherhood to further develop the Spirit of Shamballa. This Spirit is a real, living, vital, intelligent Being of Light! It is a source of encouragement to all who seek more light upon their spiritual paths. It is also the impetus to the Teachers of the race to go forth and serve the Lord.
As all Divine Beings enter into this Spirit at the close of each yearly cycle, bringing in Their sheaves of accomplishment, this spirit glows with added light. By placing your attention upon the Spirit of Shamballa once in every twenty-four hour period, you may consciously enjoy its blessings, letting it energize in and through you the vital spiritual energies from your Holy Christ Self. In this way, you, too, may engage in the delightful task of widening the borders of God's Kingdom right here on Earth.
