CONTENTS:
Revelation by Means of Evolution-Editorial
One of the most important developments of modern times is the apparent (to some minds) clash between science and religion, when in fact they serve to verify each other. The theory of evolution, seen by some as a denial of religious beliefs, can be viewed in another light as substantiating the presence of the Divine in manifestation, albeit not in strict accordance with religious scripture.
Soul and Form: A Progressive Relationship-Djwhal Khul
Wesak, An Alignment of Kindred Spirits-Sarah McKechnie
Why is Taurus so important? Because esoterically, Taurus guards the secret of light and illumination, and Wesak is the moment in the annual cycle when the powerful spiritual Forces of Enlightenment are released into the world. These Forces quicken and inspire all intelligent, thinking people and guide the work of the media, of educators and communicators; in short, all who seek to influence and direct human thinking and planning.
The Evolution of the Human Spirit-Arnold Ward
One of the mysteries of life, which has not yet been solved to the satisfaction of the scientific fraternity, is-where did life actually come from? Has it always existed, is it actually a finite existence which will eventually cease to be, could it be infinite in its scope, where did the universe in which we live originate?
A Bridge of Compassion-Uta Gabay
Interfaith organisations in Israel and abroad are on the increase. They are very active featuring regular meetings and forums of all kinds which are attended by hundreds of people - Jews, Moslems, Christians and any other faith. The emphasis is on getting to know and honour each other as human beings and on learning about the customs of the other faiths. Through worshipping together and through many activities towards peace, the separating walls are dissolved and true tolerance is being built.
Meritocracy-The Progeny of Democracy-William Meader
An esoterically structured meritocracy utilises spiritual values as the measure of merit, rather than intellect and personality ambition. While it still supports the idea that social influence must be earned, wisdom, and one's commitment to the Good, are the cornerstones that define an individual's place and authority within society. At the same time, a spiritually defined meritocracy acknowledges that at the deepest level, all people are equal.
The Way to Higher Fiery Consciousness - Part II-Maria Lenos
Those seeking to be agni yogis must cultivate the spirit of "aloneness" since then one has a greater chance to meet the Higher Self, to use the time creatively, contemplate future possibilities, and daily reserve a period of total retreat. This is to be used for introspection and reflective meditation, and planning new changes.
A Cosmic Atom Evolves-Ruth Kelland
As human atoms inhabited their ray quality and life, they became deeply committed to the purpose of the One. They exited and dissolved lower forms which caused them restriction and evolved to a level where they could perceive more clearly the intention of the One. They found common frequencies where the different ray lives could actually blend and support each other. Oneness was seeping into their consciousness. Led by their foremost agent of redemption, a light-filled and christed atom, they devised a plan for helping all of the other human atoms to exit from the unreal world of density.
